Photosmart C4250

I have heard that the Photosmart C4250 All-in-One Printer is not capable of wireless printing. Please confirm. 

 

As for my question: if the Photosmart C4250 printer is non wireless and only works with USB, would any type of USB cord work?

 

Example: if I want to print from my phone instead of my laptop, can I use a USB compatiable with my phone? 

 

Will any USB cord, other than the one given, work for this printer?

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

 

After reading your post, I did go through the Product specifications of your product and found that your printer does not support wireless printing. 

  • To get the answer to this question,  2.0 USB A Male to B Male Cable is the reliable choice for connecting devices with USB Type B Male ports such as printers, scanners, printer

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
