@MK202014, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.

 

I understand you are not able to sign in to the HP Smart app. To assist you better, do you get any errors?

Have you tried on a different device?

 

For now, install the printer using the TCP/IP port to print (wireless connectivity)

Check for any pending Windows updates first.

  1. On the PC, go to Control panel > Devices and printers > Remove the existing printer entry > click on Add a printer(at the top) 
  2. Under 'Choose a device or printer', click on 'The printer I want isn't listed'.
  3. Select 'Add a printer using a TCP/IP address'
  4. Find the IP address of the printer by tapping on the wireless/ethernet icon on the printer screen
  5. Type in the 'IP address in Hostname or IP address' box, click next
  6. Proceed to the next steps by following the on-screen instructions.

Try printing.

 

Note: We can also install the full-feature printer driver from the HP Support site.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

Glad to know that you are able to print.

 

Try using HP Scan and Capture app from the Microsoft Store and check if that helps.

 

Alternatively, use the HP Scan Extended app to scan and check if that helps.

You can Download-Save-Install > HP Scan Extended  

Download, save and install to use. 

 

Let me know how it goes.
