Review
The printer has two ways to connect that are not "Wired".
Once connected, the printer can generally connect to a supported phone, that is, a phone that is running a supported Operating System / version.
Connect to the network using standard Wireless --
Or
Use Wi-Fi Direct
Wireless network
- The printer can connect to a standard wireless network on 2.4GHz (no 5GHz). The router controlled network can then handle connections from the printer to other supported devices (computer, tablet, phone) on that same network. Reminder >> The Phone's Location services and Bluetooth should be switched ON during the initial connection phase.
Wi-Fi Direct
- The printer can be connected using the printer's own wireless radio and the wireless on a supported device (computer, tablet, phone). This type of connection is called Wi-Fi Direct . Wi-Fi Direct is explained in your printer's user manual. Reference:
Wi-Fi Direct - Starting on Page 59 - Section "Connect wirelessly to the printer without a router"
andHP printer setup (Wi-Fi Direct)
