Network

The HP ePrint software detects printers on a network. When you are ready to print, select HP ePrint

from the list of available printers. Once HP ePrint opens, you will see a list of the printers. HP ePrint

software automatically discovers HP ink or laser printers connected on the network through TCP/IP

supporting either PostScript or ePCL printer description languages. HP ePrint software only searches the

TCP/IP subnet of the PC or laptop. For printers on a different subnet, manually input the printer’s host

name or IP address into the Search dialog box on the Connected tile.

Web-connected

NOTE: To print to an HP enabled and registered device through the eprintcenter.com consumer

cloud, the destination printer must have HP ePrint enabled on the print device. This can be

accomplished from the product control panel or embedded Web server.

HP ePrint software automatically discovers ePrint registered devices if the email address used for ePrint

software registration is also defined on the product's Allowed Senders list for products registered to

www.eprintcenter.com. Check the ePrint software’s registration address from the Connected tile, by

selecting the Gear

icon. Confirm that the displayed email address is also on the HP ePrint product’s

Allowed Senders list.

If the printer is not found by ePrint software’s automatic search, the printer is probably set to accept

print jobs from Everyone. In this case, you must manually type the printer’s assigned email address into

the ePrint software’s Search box.

Wireless direct

Wireless direct is the first printing solution that allows a Wi-Fi-enabled laptop, PC, or handheld device

to locate an HP product with wireless direct printing and then print without first connecting to a wireless

network (i.e., LAN).

HP printers with wireless direct printing are able to broadcast a Wi-Fi signal just for printing. This

allows Wi-Fi enabled devices to make a peer-to-peer connection with any activated printer within

range.

HP ePrint software automatically discovers and enables printing to HP products with wireless direct.

Wireless direct printing is multi-homed, which means that it allows IP connectivity on both the wireless

and wired network.
