Samsung Galaxy Tab4 print to HP Deskjet F380 via USB Cable

[KosieBosie]

Is it possible to print directly from a Samsung Galaxy Tab4 tablet  to a HP Deskjet F380 printer via the USB Cable connection ? The printer does not support wireless printing.

If possible how do I set it up ?

If not possible what must I do to print from above mentioned tablet to the mentioned printer ?

Thanks

Welcome to HP Forums,

Thank you for posting your query, I'll be more than glad to help you out 🙂 

As I understand you need information on Samsung Galaxy Tab4 to print via HP Deskjet F380 using a USB Cable,

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details: 

As you know this printer doesn't support wireless, did you attempt setting up your printer to an android phone previously or is this the first time?

While you respond to that, here's what you should know:

I've reviewed your concern and I'm afraid there's no way of connecting a printer without the wireless capability to an Android phone.

It wouldn't work via the "USB on the go" feature either as printers do not work as a portable USB drive, it requires drivers to work and hence doesn't work with android based OS,

You might want to Contact Samsung to check if they have any other options as such.
