Hi @HS1989,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

Yes, you can typically use your HP ENVY 6458e All-In-One Printer with your mobile data by creating a hotspot with your mobile device. Most modern printers, including the HP ENVY series, support wireless connectivity options such as Wi-Fi Direct, which allows you to connect your printer directly to your mobile device without needing a traditional Wi-Fi network.

Here's how you can set it up.

• Turn on the hotspot feature on your mobile device. This feature is usually found in the settings menu of your device.
• On your HP ENVY 6458e All-In-One Printer, navigate to the wireless settings menu. This might be accessed through the printer's control panel or via the printer's touchscreen interface.
• Look for the Wi-Fi Direct or Mobile Printing option and select it.
• Your printer should detect the mobile hotspot created by your device. Select it from the list of available networks.
• Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the connection process. You may need to enter the password for your mobile hotspot if you've set one up.

Once the connection is established, you should be able to print from your mobile device using your mobile data connection. Keep in mind that printing over a mobile data connection may consume data, so be mindful of your data usage if you have limited data allowance from your mobile carrier.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
