Enable Wi-Fi direct on your printer

Make sure the android works on the same band as the printer.

If printer is 2.4ghz then your android needs to be on 2.4

get a network printout:  find the name of the wifi-direct signal and the password

install hp smart on your android and look for the printer

 

I assume the printer is made by HP but it would be helpful to know the model.

 

HP: Smart requires android 10 or later.

If your android is a Samsung then use Samsung print services for 9

The Samsung Print Service Plugin enables printing from your Android device to your HP printer over a Wi-Fi network, or using the Wi-Fi Direct connection for Wi-Fi Direct supported printers
