Unfortunately, our primitive editor does not auto-correct typing -- what you type is what you get.

If I understand what you are asking, you want to know

1. Whether your printer supports "Print Anywhere"
2. How to print to your printer using email

1.  Your printer does not support the newer print to printer option called "Print Anywhere"

2.  Your printer supports using ePrint -- the original "send print jobs to the printer" using your email

Where to "Add Printer"

Printers / Allowed Users “HP Connected”

HP Smart / HP Connected Login

Click Flag to switch to your region

After you have your printer's initial email address set up, you can rename it to something easier to use.  Be sure you don't use something too easily guessed or you might start receiving ePrint Spam.

Later, if (when) you are ready to retire your printer, sign into HP Smart / HP Connected Login  and "Remove" the printer.
