Hello.
I connected my Android phone to Wifi for use internet and i has a Wifi printer too. Can I send print to printer with access point? I can send print to printer directly via Wifi but can't send print via Wifi.
If I understand your question... If your printer is configured in ad-hoc mode then change it so it connects to the access point. Once the printer is connected to the access point you should be able to print and use the internet at the same time.
You need to configure your printer to connect to that wifi access point of yours. Once done, all devices that are on the same lan (including devices connected to the wifi access point) will have access to the printer. Finally you need to install/configure the printer on your devices.
I would search the web on printing for your particular phone.
However, in the settings menu there might be a printer icon. Tap the icon and hopefully you will be able to add a the driver for your particular printer.
There is a switch on ur wireless device called WPS press that and printer wifi button simulteneously when printer lights brgin flashing release the button when flashing stops ur printer will connect to ur wireless router.
Then u can download printerbot app from play store on ur android device and can print. this way u can print as well as brouse the net.
