HP ENVY Pro 6458 All-in-One Printer
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My HP Envy Pro 6400 is connected wirelessly. It frequently losses connections or goes to sleep. Would wi-fi Direct improve this situation?

I was told by hp you can extend the time before it goes to sleep...BUT after it goes to sleep a good majority shuts down automatically  & you cannot turn this function off in several of the printers & you CANNOT wake it remotely.  You must go to the printer and MANUALLY turn it back on & then pray to your gods that your wifi will auto connect.  Foe my 100+  time I am fighting to get my wifi connected.  I HATE this printer. When it works it's great but 8 out of 10 times it quits! & now how convent there is no help on weekend or evenings.  #hp I will never buy a printer from you again & I will never recommend one in fact I'll recommend anything ylbuy you!
