HP Recommended
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I recently purchased an HP 6001 smart tank with the express purpose of using the WiFi Direct.  I have the printer set up and was able to print something using a hot spot, However, I have not been able to get the WiFi Direct to turn on.  I printed the information page and pressed the information button for 3 seconds as indicated, when all the buttons were lit, I pressed the WiFi and Resume button at the same time, but nothing happens.  I have restarted the printer and still nothing.  I am ready to return this and review it as a fail!  This should not be this complicated and neither should turning something off and on!!!
