HP 6520 - ANDROID HP Smart doesnot find on wireless direct

[MtlR]

i have HP Smart and driver on my samsung tablet Android 10, and my HP6520 with wireles direct turned on.

HPSmart doesnt see the printer but it can see it if both devices on the same wifi router network.

how do i get tablet to talk directly to the printer and not via the router so i can have tablet on one network and printer on another?

@MtlR, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

This cannot be done. Both the devices should be on the same network for you to be able to print.

• Make sure the printer and the tablet are connected to the same wireless network. Either 2.4 or 5GHz network.
• If you have a Dual-band router and both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks share the same name/SSID, the printer will not be able to connect to the network. In this case, contact your Internet service provider to assign different names to both networks.

If you are using the wireless direct option, the tablet will not be connected to the internet while printing. Wireless direct is used if you do not have access to a wireless router.

I hope that answers your concern adequately. Let me know!
