This application serves as the designated print service plugin for Android devices, developed by HP Inc. It enables direct wireless printing from an Android smartphone or tablet to a compatible HP printer on the same local network. While engineered by HP, its functionality is not restricted to HP-branded Android hardware; it operates as a system-level print service on devices from various manufacturers. The core requirement is that the destination printer must be an HP model from the supported InkJet or LaserJet series.
The plugin integrates directly with the Android operating system's print framework. Once installed and set as the default print service, it becomes available from within any application that uses the standard Android print menu, including document viewers, email clients, and web browsers. This allows for printing photos, PDFs, web pages, and emails without transferring files to a computer first. The application establishes a connection by discovering compatible HP printers on the local Wi-Fi network. It is verified to be fully compatible with a range of specific devices, including the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, S4, HP Slate 7, HP Slate 8 Pro, HP Slate 10, HP Slate 21, and the HP SlateBook.
A significant operational note is the absence of advertising within the application interface, which contributes to a streamlined user experience focused solely on printing tasks. The plugin is designed for utility, providing a reliable bridge between the mobile Android environment and network-connected HP printers. Its value is particularly evident for users who require frequent mobile printing from supported Android tablets or smartphones, eliminating the need for intermediary devices or complex sharing protocols.
We suggest trying the HP Print Service Plugin if you need a reliable, system-integrated method for printing directly from your compatible Android device to your HP printer.
