HP

Abstract

HP is a companion app for people who use compatible HP printers or computers. It brings device setup, printing, scanning, basic status checks and support into one Android interface, making it suited to home users, students and small offices that want to manage routine print tasks from a phone or tablet.

Printer setup and management

The app guides you through connecting a new HP printer and provides a central view of supported devices. Depending on the printer or computer model, you can check supplies such as ink and paper, adjust available settings and review warranty information. Feature availability can vary by device, country and language, so it is best understood as a control centre for compatible HP hardware rather than a universal printer utility.

Print, scan and share

HP can send photos and documents to a connected printer, including files saved on your mobile device. Its scanning tools can digitise documents and receipts, with options to adjust or edit scans before saving, sharing or printing them. Some supported setups also provide faxing, saved print shortcuts and access to printable cards, worksheets and other projects.

• Print photos and everyday documents from Android.
• Scan paper documents for digital storage or sharing.
• Use shortcuts for print jobs you repeat often.
• Receive supply notifications and find ways to order replacements.

Support and scale

When a device needs attention, the app provides access to troubleshooting information and HP support channels, including contact options where available. Its broad adoption is reflected in a 4.19 rating from about 872,000 reviews and 100,000,000+ installs. HP Inc. publishes the app in the Productivity category, but the usefulness of individual tools depends on the HP equipment connected to it.
