Mobile printing allows smartphones and tablets to send print jobs to a compatible wireless printer without using a computer. Most modern printers include mobile printing support through dedicated apps, AirPrint, or Mopria Print Service, making it straightforward to print from virtually any mobile device.
HP Smart App
HP printers support mobile printing through the HP Smart app, available for iOS and Android. The app allows printing documents and photos from your phone, scanning using the phone camera, and managing printer status and settings wirelessly.
Apple AirPrint
AirPrint is Apple's built-in wireless printing framework for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS devices. Compatible printers appear automatically in the print dialog on Apple devices without requiring app installation. Many current HP printers support AirPrint.
