To set up your **HP Envy 6055e printer**, follow these key steps:
1. **Unpack and Prepare the Printer**
– Unbox your printer, remove all protective packaging, load paper into the tray, and install the ink cartridges following the printed instructions or the detailed video guide available on HP Support[5].
2. **Connect to WiFi**
You have two main wireless connection options:
– **WiFi Setup via HP Smart App:**
Download the HP Smart app on your smartphone or tablet (available on iOS and Android). Open the app, turn on the printer, and follow the prompts to connect the printer to your home or office WiFi network. This method connects your printer to your wireless network so you can print and scan from devices on the same network[2][3].
– **WiFi Direct Setup (Printer-to-Device Connection):**
Press the printer’s information button to print a network information page. On that page, find the WiFi Direct network name and password for the printer. Using your device (such as an Android phone), open WiFi settings, connect to the printer’s WiFi Direct network using the password, then open the HP Smart app to add the printer and print or scan wirelessly without a separate WiFi network[1].
3. **Add Printer to Devices**
Use the HP Smart app to add the printer to your smartphone, tablet, or computer. This will allow seamless wireless printing and scanning[1][2].
4. **Print a Test Page**
After setup, print a test page to confirm successful installation and connection.
For detailed instructions with visuals, HP provides video tutorials covering both WiFi network setup and WiFi Direct setup, which may be helpful to follow step-by-step[1][2][3]. You can also download official setup and user guides from HP’s support website for your exact model (HP ENVY 6055e)[4][5].
This process ensures you can start printing wirelessly from various devices around your home or office.
