Hp Sprocket

I am using a Sony Xperia X. I set up the printer and paired it with the phone the first time and it printed fine, but after turning off the printer and re connecting another time the app said the printer was not connected however  the phone was paired. If i reset everything, including the printer itself, the phone and reinstalling the app and repairing again it works fine. However once turning off and going back another time the same problem happens. 

 

I feel like i have tried everything and i dont want to be resetting everying everytime i want to use it.

 

Any suggestions?

Hi bethanyyy,

 

Here are the specific steps to update the firmware with HP Sprocket app:

 

Upgrade the printer firmware

HP regularly releases printer updates. Upgrading the printer firmware might resolve the issue.

  1. Make sure the printer is on and your mobile device is connected to the Internet.
  2. On your mobile device, open the HP Sprocket app.
  3. Tap the Menu icon , and then tap your printer in the list.

The printer information screen displays.

  1. Look for a printer firmware upgrade.
    • If a firmware upgrade displays, tap Get Firmware Upgrade, and then follow the on-screen prompts to complete the update.
    • If a firmware upgrade option does not display, the printer firmware is up to date. 
  2. After updating the printer firmware, try to print.

Please let me know if this helped!
