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

 

I understand you are trying to connect the printer to your phone via hotspot. HP printers may or may not work on a hotspot connection.

HP recommends the use of a personal wireless router. 

 

If you do not have access to a personal router, use Wifi-Direct to print.

Note: There will be no internet access on the phone while using this method.

Refer to - HP printer setup (Wi-Fi Direct)

 

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