3 HP ePrint
HP ePrint is a free service from HP that allows you to print to your HP ePrint-enabled
printer anytime, from any location. It’s as simple as sending an email to the email
address assigned to your printer when you enable Web Services on the printer. No
special drivers or software are needed. If you can send an email, you can print from
anywhere, using HP ePrint.
Once you have signed up for an account on ePrintCenter, you can sign in to view your
HP ePrint job status, manage your HP ePrint printer queue, control who can use your
printer’s HP ePrint email address to print, and get help for HP ePrint.
NOTE: To use HP ePrint, the printer must be connected to the Internet (either
using an Ethernet cable or wireless connection). You cannot use these web
features if the printer is connected using a USB cable.
