Hi @sukeshchanrdra,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.
The HP LaserJet Tank MFP 2606 supports wireless printing and scanning on the following platforms:
- Windows 10 / 11 (64-bit)
- macOS
- Android / iOS (via the HP Smart app)
Important Note Regarding Windows Server 2016:
Your operating system (Microsoft Windows Server 2016) is not officially supported for full HP printer functionality, especially scanning and wireless setup.
Here's what you need to know:
- ✅ Basic printing may work using the HP Universal Print Driver.
- ❌ HP Smart App, wireless scanning, and some advanced features are not supported on Windows Server editions.
- 🔧 For wireless printing or scanning in a server environment, you’ll need to contact your company's IT administrator to:
- Set up the printer on a supported Windows 10/11 or macOS client system
- Configure scan-to-folder or scan-to-email via the printer's Embedded Web Server (EWS)
- Use shared printing or a network-based print server setup
What You Can Try
If your company has a Windows 10/11 PC:
- Set up the printer on that PC using the HP Smart app
- Enable printer sharing on the network (your IT can assist)
- Connect to the shared printer from your Server 2016 machine
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
