Print anywhere option does not appear

[CTK78]

Hello. Through the app the option on my printer HP MFP178nw to print anywhere does not appear active. Is this supposed to be like that?

Hello @CTK78 , how are you ?

The driver may not be installed correctly.

Try installing it below:

Best regards

Thank you. Very much. Unfortunately it did not help. I read somewhere they not all printers are compatible with this function. Don’t knowing this model is?

Apologies for jumping in unannounced.

Short version --

Unfortunately, it wont work.

According to the documentation, your printer is not eligible to use Print Anywhere.

Where the printer eligible, (re)installing the setup would have added the setup.

Set up / enable HP+

HP+ printer setup help

Details

Print Anywhere is the replacement for the old ePrint technology.

Although Print Anywhere shares some of the under-carriage (under the hood) coding structure with the old ePrint tech, the Print Anywhere interface is different.

Print Anywhere is accessed from within the HP Smart / HP App.

Your printer is neither an HP+ eligible printer nor is it on the list of select non-HP+ printers that support Smart Advance features, including Print Anywhere.
