a. From the Home screen on the printer display, touch
(Wi-Fi Direct).
b. If Status is O, touch
(Wi-Fi Direct Settings) and turn Wi-Fi Direct on.
2. Connect your wireless enabled device to your printer:
a. Turn on the Wi-Fi connection on your mobile device. For more information, see the documentation provided
with the mobile device.
b. From the mobil e device, connect to a new network. Use the process you normally use to connect to a new
wireless network or hotspot. Choose the Wi-Fi Direct name from the list of wireless networks shown such as
DIRECT-**-HP ENVY-5640 (where ** are the unique characters to identify your printer).
c. Enter the Wi-Fi Direct password when prompted.
3. Print as you normally do from your computer or mobile device.
Note: Wi-Fi Direct connection does not provide Internet access.

If you want to print with AirPrint
This printer is Apple AirPrint™-enabled. You can print wirelessly from your iOS device or Mac.
Your printer and iOS device or Mac must be on the same wireless network.
With Apple AirPrint™, you cannot scan documents from the printer to your iOS device.
This product is designed for use in open environments (e.g., in homes and not connected to the public internet) in
which anyone may access and use the printer. As a result, the Wi-Fi Direct setting is in “Automatic” mode by default,
without an administrator password; this allows anyone in wireless range to connect and access all functions and
settings of the printer. If higher security levels are desired, HP recommends changing the Wi-Fi Direct Connection
Method from “Automatic” to “Manual” and establishing an administrator password.
