If you want to use the printer wirelessly without a router

Use Wi-Fi Direct to print wirelessly without a router, from your computer, smartphone, or other wireless enabled device. To use Wi-Fi Direct from a computer, the printer software must be installed on the computer.

1.Make sure that Wi-Fi Direct on your printer is turned on:

a.From the Home screen on the printer display, touch (Wi-Fi Direct).

b.If Status is Off, touch (Wi-Fi Direct Settings) and turn Wi-Fi Direct on.

2.Connect your wireless enabled device to your printer:

a.Turn on the Wi-Fi connection on your mobile device. For more information, see the documentation provided with the mobile device.

b.From the mobil e device, connect to a new network. Use the process you normally use to connect to a new wireless network or hotspot. Choose the Wi-Fi Direct name from the list of wireless networks shown such as

DIRECT-**-HP ENVY-5640 or DIRECT-**-HP ENVY-5660 (where ** are the unique characters to identify your printer).

c.Enter the Wi-Fi Direct password when prompted.

3.Print as you normally do from your computer or mobile device. Note: Wi-Fi Direct connection does not provide Internet access.

Visit the HP Wireless Printing Center at www.hp.com/go/wirelessprinting for more information about Wi-Fi Direct.

This product is designed for use in open environments (e.g., in homes and not connected to the public internet) in which anyone may access and use the printer. As a result, the Wi-Fi Direct setting is in “Automatic” mode by default, without an administrator password; this allows anyone in wireless range to connect and access all functions and settings of the printer. If higher security levels are desired, HP recommends changing the Wi-Fi Direct Connection Method from “Automatic” to “Manual” and establishing an administrator password.

This printer is Apple AirPrint™-enabled. You can print wirelessly from your iOS device or Mac.

•• Your printer and iOS device or Mac must be on the same wireless network.
