Can I print using a wi-fi hotspot? I don't have internet at my home so I'm using a hot spot through my cell service (at&t).  please help thank you!

@toniy, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

You will need to connect your printer to the mobile hotspot from 1st smartphone, and then use the 2nd smartphone device to connect to the same hotspot and to the printer, and then it should work. Try that.

 

If you have only one smartphone that is used at the same time as a mobile hotspot and for printing with HP App will not work.

 

Alternatively, you can use the Wi-Fi Direct feature to print from the printer. Refer to the document HP Printers - Printing with Wi-Fi Direct for help.

 

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