[SOLVED] Failure of 'Samsung print service plugin' Android 6.0.1 (HP too)

Does the Samsung print service plugin work for you??

The Samsung print service plugin (current ver 3.01.161021) Does Not operate with a Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-GT900T, Android 6.0.1) phone we are testing. The HP Print Service Plugin also fails to operate in the same phone, with the exact same problems.

The printer seems to be found and installs via wifi. But at print time, there is no small yellow print button displayed. It appears not to communicate with the HP printer, displaying "This printer is not available". Testing with native Android browser and Google Chrome browser.

The Samsung print service plugin does operate Perfectly with multiple Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7" (Android 6.0.1), and with a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" Lite(Android 4.2.2) tablets tested, Same HP printer.

Is there any hope?
Any advice appreciated very much.
