Summary: HP Smart

Previously known as the HP all-in-one app, HP smart is a simple yet useful app that gives you the ability to print, scan, share and manage your HP printer from your iPhone or other devices. For example, if you are at work and want to scan or print to your home printer directly, this special application can help you accomplish this task.

One of the things that makes this application amazing is the included mobile faxing that makes the process of sending a fax as simple as the email sending process. According to the designers, ‘if it is accessible, then it’s faxable.’ Generally, Hp smart saves you time by allowing you to fax while on the go straight from your iPad or iPhone.

At the end of the day, you will end up saving both time and money. The main reason for this is that the application eliminates the fees linked with using landline fax. In addition, there is no need to go to the store to send a fax.

Lastly, you have got a scanner at your hand. With HP smart, you can quickly connect to your camera on your phone or the HP printer to easily scan and fax several pages at a go.

Key Features

Printing

You can easily print photos or files saved on your iOS device. Additionally, you can also print the documents stored in Google Drive, Dropbox, Instagram, Facebook and other cloud storage solutions. The printing process is pretty simple as you only need to open the application, click on print documents or print photos and then choose your desired social media account or cloud storage.

Scanning

You can use your phone’s camera to scan a file or photo as a JPEG or PDF file. After scanning, you can save the scans on your smartphone or even in a cloud account, like Google Drive. Besides, you can share it via email. Keep in mind that your phone’s camera needs to have a minimum of 5MP (megapixels) as well as an auto-focus feature for it to scan a document.

Other features of the app include:

  • HP smart application enables you to evaluate the printer supplies, view printer info and reports and adjust the printer settings.
  • Identify and order ink cartridges and other printer supplies – the smart application easily recognizes the type of ink cartridges used by your printer. Additionally, you can use it to order the cartridges.
  • Access the printer settings, tools, info and reports – use the app to view printer info and access the printer’s reports and other essential info.
  • Access advanced tools – with HP smart, you can set the energy save mode, configure the network settings and check the network’s status based on your printer model.

Conclusion

Most people find HP smart helpful because it comes with a variety of options for printing from a smartphone. One of the best features that users like is the capability to link it to Google Drive. Well, this is incredibly useful, especially if your organization or school uses cloud storage a lot to share files.

With the app, you’ll easily access your Drive and print files at home via your phone. Currently, the only notable drawback is that when it comes to previewing a document to print, the document may take a while before it’s ready for printing.
