printing from the s6

[nikitathedog]

So on my s3 I was able to wireless print to my hp that is on my home network.

When I used to print I think there was a samsung print server and a google print server. I think the google one is what worked.

However on the s6 there is only a samsung one. I did download the hp print app from the play store. When I go to print something it shows my printer however nothing comes out or of it is supposed to I cancel it after five minutes. The printer is on line and does work with a lap top.

Any tips?

Do you have the NFC turned on? I had to download the app for my printer and turn on the NFC and works like a charm. Hope this helps

I had the same problem as nikitathedog. The hp printer was using 2.4 ghz on my network and my phone was attached and using the 5 ghz band. Tried to print, could see printer on the network but no printing would start. Change my s6 to 2.4 ghz and resent the print and success using the hp app.

Figured that and switched and no go.

If non of my options below work I'll dow load the google cloud Print. I'm sure it worked with that last time.
