  I'm trying to install the HP Deskjet 2540 on my MacBook Air, Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite running.  I downloaded the drivers on the HP site and installed the drivers.  When I get to the HP Setup Utility, however, the clock has been running and my printer does not appear in the window.  I tried re - install the drivers a number of times.  I turned off the printer and turned it back.  I have reset the router.  Nothing has worked so far.  The blue light on the printer just keeps blinking and I can't connect to it.  One of the solutions was to press the wireless button and follow the prompts on the screen on the printer, but it is not an option on this printer.

• HP Deskjet 2540 all-in-one: printer stopped connecting to the wifi network

  Hi, my printer has suddenly stopped detecting my wireless network. When I turn on the printer, wireless blue light continues to blink and there is an exclamation point on the screen of the printer. I still have the same wifi network as before and have not changed it or its parameters. I have not physically moved the printer and the wireless works fine for all computers, iPads, and phones.

  I tried to uninstall and reinstall the HP Utility Set Up software but it couldn't detect the printer to set up.  I also tried running the diagnostic results, but all the results, said 'Not work', 'Not applicable' or 'None'. I can't even an IP address for my printer.

  My laptop can detect the printer if I turn on the wireless Direct button and I connect to this network on my laptop, but that's all. I'd rather connect the printer to the wifi so I can print from all my devices (phone, iPad etc.). The printer is less than 6 months and I do not understand what is the problem with him. Can you please specify?

  Hey @Sue1990,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I hope you enjoy your stay here.

  I understand that the all-in-one printer Deskjet 2540 does not connect to your wireless network. I can help you with that.

  To connect the printer to your network again you will need to run the USB cable from the printer to your computer Mac OS x 10.7. This makes the open Applications, Hewlett-Packard and inside this folder you will find a program with a similar name to the installation wizard. If you run this program, then you will find options to connect your printer to your wireless network.

  Please let me know how it works for you and let me know if you have any questions.

  Have a wonderful evening!

• HP deskjet 2540: request product code

  How can I get my application code?

  Hey @janbols,

  Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.

  I understand that you're looking for your all-in-one printer HP Deskjet 2540 claimcode.  I want to help you with this.

  Connected HP is an excellent resource for platelets, ePrint and other features, but it is only compatible with webservices/ePrint enabled printers.  Your printer does not have a feature of Web services...  There is therefore no way you can get (or create) a claimcode to connect your HP printer connected.

  Despite this, you can always use it in combination with iOS, Android and Windows devices most via a direct wireless connection or a wireless connection mutually shared on the same network (SSID).  So, if you need assistance in obtaining your printer installation for use with a smartphone or Tablet (basically anything but your current PC) or you need help to connect to your network without wire in general, please reply to this message with the details on what you're looking to achieve and I'll be happy to help you.

• DeskJet 2540: Deskjet 2540 print and Scan works on Windows 10

  I have installled, uninstalled and reinstalled the software half a dozen times now, on my Windows 10 machine, but I still don't have any interface to scan documents.

  The installation process has shown a success install and I was able to recognize and connect to the printer. In my Start menu, the new option 'Scan & Print' is there, as shown in the screenshot (click on the screenshot to the size of the full image).

  But when I click on the option, instead of the usual analysis and the dialog box print, I am faced with a new printer 'Connect' and 'Add more software' options (see screenshot below).

  How can I get to the good old scan dialog box?

  Among others, I used to have an option here to scan directly to PDF. This option is not accessible from anywhere on the machine and is something I desperately need to back.

  Has it been removed from version 10 of Windows? I ran a search for "Scan" computer, but the only options I get are native Windows analysis (which works very well for the individual photos) and this dialog box. Nothing that would allow me to scan a document of several pages in PDF format

  Thanks a lot S

  If we had a go at the download for use on the laptop - there were a few problems, but in the end, we managed to get this working

  It's questions and that's how we overcame the

  1 no internet connection on the machine, downloaded the link on a stick of a connected machine, copied on the laptop and I tried to extract and run. Excerpts, but would not go beyond Set - up. Tried several times, even issue and tried to connect to microsoft.net framework, saying that they had the 3.5 version to continue. (only version 2 on XP laptop)

  2 used in m/c to load the .net framework 3.5 on memory stick, transfer it to laptop and run, but still kept trying to connect to the internet to run it out of there.

  3 so focused in trying to establish an internet connection and wifi on the laptop. After a lot of pain reached this, went to the site of microsoft and .net framework 3.5 directly downloaded on laptop with the statement to execute. Has taken a while but it downloaded and installed. Computer restarted-watch installation qualified.

  4 then tried the same thing with the HP link above - IE a download direct and executed. He ran, followed the instructions and connected the printer when requested. All steps except activation - wouldn't connect on the HP Web site link.

  5 creates a document word on the laptop, tried to print it - that prompted a test page and the mod by placing the page printed on the scanner. At the end of the word doc printed. Clicked on the button to say activation to change the time.

  Printer 6 now seems to work fine, just like Copier and scanner - we keep our fingers crossed that it continues!

• All-in-one Deskjet 2540: Brand New Deskjet 2540 - "cartridge is Incompatible - black ink cartridge.

  I just got a new HP Deskjet 2540 all-in-one yesterday, ordered from amazon.de, went through the installation of software on my 2015 Macbook Pro running OSX Yosemite, deleted the band contained in 301 ink cartridges provided, placed them in the printer (tricolor on the left, in black on the right) without touching the electrical contacts or the ink nozzles and tried and align the ink cartridges.

  I met an error message:

  'Incompatible ink cartridge.

  Black [K]

  The cartridge listed above is not intended for use in this printer as it is currently configured.

  Please see using printer. "

  Strange, but no matter, the bad seats maybe. I opened the drawer, removed black and reinstalled. Same error message. Well, I ordered an extra authentic HP 301 XL knowing I would run on Finally, maybe my ink cartridge provided was bad. I removed the 301 XL tape and installed. This time, no message error, but as soon as I went to print an alignment page, I received the same error. I went back between cartridges and sometimes I get the printer to accept it, but any attempt to use the printer caused an error message.

  So I went on this forum, found a few tips on how to solve the problem. I tried the resets seats and the relocation and hard. Same error message. I went to clean the contacts, using a cotton swab, filter coffee and bottled water Jig only contacts of eletrical on two ink cartridges (normal and XL) and contacts of printers. I let them dry for 10 minutes and reinstall. Same error message, no progress.

  I'm at a loss for what to do that this is a new printer and I say to myself that I would not have this much trouble. If I could get advice on what to do and more: seats/resettlement, cleaning the contacts, hard reset, it would be appreciated.

  HI bchowseph,

  I found some information about the printer product Specifications.  It does not list the cartridge 301 for Western Europe.  The 61 is for North America.  I think I made the assumption that you were in the United States (my bad!)

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/product/HP-DeskJet-2540-all-in-one-printer-series/5295960/model/5295961/document/c03811750/

  I greatly apologize for the confusion!

  Yet, the printer should accept the cartridges you had - so I think I can get a replacement printer is the right course of action.

  The ink cartridges should be OK for a few days in an airtight container.  You may need to run a routine cleaning cartridge if you see necessary ink missing once you have installed.

  If you need to return the standard procedure is to call HP customer care.

  I hope that everything works with the replacement printer.  I also hope it is resolved quickly!

  Don't think it's my AntiVirus because I run the same on my old desk.

  Security software installed on your computer is designed to protect your computer against threats, but sometimes can block communication between devices and can cause problems when using your printer or install the software.

  A quick troubleshooting technique is to disable your firewall/antivirus and see if the problem goes away. Remember to re-enable your security later.

  You can see the category 'firewall and software provider specific security information' of this site; Security and firewall information if you would like more information on your security software.

  When you have downloaded the software fact all-in-one HP Deskjet 2540 Printer series full feature software and drivers - download version 10 of Windows?

  

  I would try this;

  1. Unplug your USB cable.
  2. Click on the Start Menu, find and open devices and printers.
  3. Right-click on any printer that refers to this model, then click on remove device (so delete all HP Deskjet 2540 s in here)
  4. Then repeat installation, unplugged the USB cable and see if the installation detects the printer already on your network.

  Please let me know if any of these steps has resolved your problem, or if there is anything else I can do to help.

  I look forward to hear from you!

  I have a document in the queue on HP Deskjet 2540 and it shows the status of deletion, but nothing else is printed until I can get rid of this.

  I am not very computer can anyone help please?

  Hello

  From the desktop, hold down the Windows key and press R.  In the run window, type services.msc and press to enter.

  Scroll down to the print spooler service, right click and select Properties, then click the Stop button.

  Now search for C:\Windows\System32\Spool\PRINTERS, then delete the work inside this folder - you may need to click a command prompt to get the authority to open the PRINTERS folder.

  Restart the computer and you should find that the document has been deleted.

  Kind regards
