Hi @mobygirl,

I'd like to help, connect your printer to your android device.

please try the steps below to connect your printer to the network-

-->On the printer control panel, press and hold the Wireless button and the Resume button together for three seconds. (When Wi-Fi Direct is turned on, the Wi-Fi Direct icon on the display stays on)  
--->On your computer or phone go to wifi and connect it to your printer 
--->Select your printer with DIRECT in the name from the list of available networks (example: DIRECT-74-HP Deskjet2600).
--->Select the Wi-Fi Direct printer signal in Wi-Fi settings 
--->If prompted for a password, type 12345678. This is the default password to log in.
--->Now open a browser and type 192.168.223.1
--->you will be able to access the printer's EWS page 
--->on the page, you will find network - click on it 
--->go to wireless and select wireless setup wizard
--->now select the network that you want your printer to connect to and type in the password 
--->the printer will have solid blue light if it's connected 
--->then connect your phone back to your network

 Install and Use the HP Smart App

Install the HP Smart app and set up the printer

Install the HP Smart app on a mobile device running Android OS 7.0 (Nougat) or later, Apple iOS 11 or later, or iPadOS.

1. Go to 123.hp.com from a browser on your phone or tablet and install the HP Smart app.

2. Make sure your mobile device is connected to your wireless network, and then open the HP Smart app.

3. iOS 13 and iPadOS: Allow Bluetooth and location permissions, if prompted.

   For more information about how the HP Smart app uses Bluetooth and location, go to Why does the HP Smart app need Bluetooth and location permission in Frequently asked questions (FAQs).

4. Add your printer to the app.

   NOTE: 

   Restrictions in Android 7.0 (Nougat) and later might prevent Wi-Fi printer setup using the HP Smart app for Android. If the wireless printer setup is not successful, go to 123.hp.com from a Windows or Mac computer or an iOS or iPadOS device to set up the wireless connection using the guided HP installation. You can also connect the printer with the wireless setup wizard on the control panel or use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS). Once connected to Wi-Fi, HP Smart can discover the printer to enable printing. Go to Printer Setup Fails with HP Smart App (Android) for detailed steps.

   • If your printer displays, continue to the next step.

   • If your printer displays with Set Up, tap the printer, follow the on-screen prompts to finish setting up your printer, and then continue to the next step.

   • If your printer does not display, tap the Plus sign to select a printer from the list of found printers or set up a new one, and then follow the on-screen instructions.
