Print directly from your Android phone

The HP Smart app lets you use your HP printer from anywhere. With its simple setup, you can print, scan, copy or share files from your mobile with friends, colleagues or cloud account. You can also order supplies, request support and manage your HP account.

To begin, you should scan the QR code on the Get Started card or download the app from 123.hp.com. You should ensure that your Android phone is connected to a network and has Bluetooth enabled. Then, you can turn your HP printer on, meanwhile checking that you have an active connection and your wireless password or key at hand.

HP Smart finds and prepares the printer, obtains the IP address and finishes the connection process.
