Hello wnht2012,

I am from Dell Social Media and Community.

Make sure you are connected to the same network to which the printer is connected.
From Settings > Wifi Settings > Tap the network name and enter in the password for the network if prompted to.

Download a wifi printing application from the Google Play Store

Launch the printing application that you downloaded > Select the type of file you want to print > Select your printer and select the paper size for the printer in the Print Options > Tap the "Print" icon to print from Android using Wi-Fi.

Let me know if you need any further assistance.
