Edge light bars typically illuminate in purple when your printer is connecting to a network or waiting for you computer or mobile device to connect, with purple moving from center towards edge as the printer uses Auto Wireless Connect (AWC) mode and searches the HP Smart app for network passwords.

If your printer features a USB port, be sure to disconnect it before beginning software installation. Reconnect it when instructed; typically near the end of this procedure.

Install the full driver printer software if prompted; HP Smart app and other print software/applications will benefit from having a full driver installed. If using the printer as a scanner or copier, consider also installing the full fax driver for maximum effectiveness.

Use the HP Smart App on your iPhone and select Add a Printer to add your printer. It will detect it and guide you through its setup, with on-screen instructions that help connect your WiFi network and connect it with the printer – then, once connected, printing documents or photos is just a matter of printing away!

3. Select Settings

The light bar pulses purple at its center while its edges flash: This indicates that your printer is in Auto Wireless Connect mode and waiting for you to enter a password into the app. Press and hold Wireless button on back of printer if connection has become loose in order to reset and reestablish connection.

4. Select Network

Modern printers typically include Wi-Fi Direct as a feature to connect directly with mobile data without using traditional wireless networks. You can usually find this option by consulting the product manual or settings menu of your printer; if supported by Wi-Fi Direct, your printer should have a button you can press to initiate this process, after which a list of available networks should appear and you can select your ideal option from this list.

If you select an incorrect network, wait a few seconds for your printer to reconnect to its proper one. Or try connecting to another cellular or WiFi network; if that doesn’t work either, launch HP Smart app to refresh connection and try again.

Wireless printing can be an incredible convenience, yet any issues with your setup can be extremely inconvenient. If this occurs with an HP printer offline, don’t panic; often this issue can be solved through basic troubleshooting and regular maintenance steps. Here we discuss some of the more frequently occurring issues as well as quick solutions; if these don’t resolve it however it may be worth reaching out for support or contacting a tech professional as they will likely identify more complex problems and take the appropriate measures to repair them as necessary.

Conclusion

HP+ printers require either Wi-Fi or USB internet connectivity in order to use Mobile Print or Web Services, however. Wi-Fi only connects your device to your local network and router; from there, the router connects your network directly to the Internet by means of home or business broadband service.
