    My landlord Text me a picture of my lease and I had to print it in order to sign it. I was like 'huh?' !
    I looked at my phone like it's an alien 👽! Lol
    So I came onto youtube and your video pops up. You simplified it for me to follow very easily. I DID IT! I'm not going to be homeless. Lol
    Thank you thank you!!

    Put bluetooth on (phone), put location on (phone), put WiFi on (phone) click on hp smart app & make sure printer says it is connected/available at the top. If not click on printers WiFi button to turn off and then press again to turn back on. Both printer & phone need to be connected to same WiFi network. This should all hopefully help & work. If printer says unavailable still on hp smart app, click on get support, follow check list & click on how do I do this if stuck.

      Our phone also says that the Printer is Not Available in the central portion of our screen. When you click the three dots and go down to "Print", the name of your printer should flash at the top margin of your phone screen. Tap on the name of the printer. Your phone might show the name of the printer at the top of your screen for a 2nd time after that. Tap on the name of the printer for a second time, and the Print icon should appear for you to tap. It is a yellow icon on our Samsung Galaxy. Tap that icon, and your document should print.

      This is what worked for my Android devices:
      1 Download HP plugin
      2 Connect directly to the printer via WiFi (NOT WiFi direct. I had to get off my internet mesh network and choose the printer)
      3 Share or send the document to the HP plugin (instead of Whatsapp, Viber, etc) which will give the various printing options (when I try PRINT it wouldn't connect to the printer).
