I’m currently between internet service providers. Can I connect my printer to my cell phone hot spot or print via Bluetooth connection?

Hi @Ac2919
Welcome to HP Support Community. This is a great place to post questions and find answers.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

I see that you wanted to know how to print without internet connection.

 

Please follow the steps listed below to connect using the wi-fi direct option by which you can directly connect the device to the printer without the router.
Before following the steps temporarily disconnect your phone from the Internet. 
1. Make sure the printer is turned on, in a ready state, and paper is loaded in the main input tray.
2. From the printer control panel, touch (Wi-Fi Direct).
3. Touch Settings, and then Wi-Fi Direct to turn it on.
Press the Back button, and then find the Wi-Fi Direct name and password from the Wi-Fi Direct Details menu.
4. On the phone, open Settings, tap Wi-Fi and then tap the printer with DIRECT in the name (Example: DIRECT-72-HP Officejet Pro 6970) from the list of available networks.
5. Open the item you want to print, and then tap Print from the app or action menu.
6. Select your printer from the list of available printers, and then tap Print.
