• DeskJet 2540: cannot convert mac wireless usb printer

  Hello

  I'm having a problem setting my printer all-in-one Deskjet 2540 on my macbook (osx El Capitan). After basic implementation through usb connection, I was able to connect my printer to my router, which makes possible wireless printing. I was then able to print wireless from my phone using remote control all-in-one app.

  However, I now want my macbook to establish a wireless connection to the printer instead of the usb connection that is used for configuration. I can't find the option to convert a usb printer to a printer that is connected to the wifi. When disconnecting from usb, laptop computer notes the connection with the printer is lost. To install my printer, I use the HP Utility software, in which I can't find such an option. Also, when passing through Apple-> system-> printers and scanners preferences I can't find an option "convert to wireless. I also read a method via Finder-> applications-> HP and then an icon for installing the software & should be there? In my case, there is only the HP Utility icon which directs me to the same program in which I could not find the option.

  What I was looking for, and where can I find it?

  Might be a little exaggerated description, but I hope that this makes it extremely clear...

• HP Deskjet 2540 All In One: Unable to print color?

  I have a Deskjet 2540 brand new all-in-One. Printer is delivered without any instruction manual. How to print color? I hit 'print' of my document and it comes out in black and white. When I type on the printer, the 'color' button, it draws just a piece of paper through the unit and nothing is displayed at all. I do not understand this crazy thing. My old printer didn't need me to tell it to print color or black and white, that he knew what was coming through the system. I'm about to make this thing.

  Thanks, actually it would print test print color, just not when I tried to get a print document in color. new printer, new cartridges. Change my selection of the printer of HP Deskjet 2540 2540 Deskjet series just seemed to settle, I don't know why. I just mention it here in case other Mac users have the same problem.

• HP Deskjet 3050 all-in-one: does not print copy or not

  A few months ago my printer has stopped printing. It print only the first line of the page and then spit out the rest of the blank page. At first I thought it was the program I was using because sometimes it would work in Word but not Adobe PDF, or vice versa. Now it prints even more than the first line, it just takes the paper and does not print anything on this subject. I tried:

  -Turning then in

  -installation of the driver more updated from the web

  -new ink cartridges

  -print a test page - that works!

  -copy - that does not work

  Another note:

  -I connect via a USB port to print

  Other troubleshooting tips would be appreciated, if not I throw and do not buy another HP printer again. Very frustrating!

  Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
  Wait at least 15 seconds.
  Plug the power cord into the wall outlet.
  Reconnect the power cord to the back of the product.
  If the product does not light by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.

• HP Deskjet 1056 (all-in-one) do not print all of a sudden

  Thank you in advance for your answers and direction.

  For some reason, I could not get my PC to print at all (no test do pages either). I just rebuilt my PC with Windows 7, I have done this literally 100 times before and have never encountered this dilemma. I installed the software from the manufacturer's Cd, all right. Installation was made initially with the USB unplugged and then plugged when requested by the software. Each attempt to print (including test pages) sends in Quebec City and then times out with a non-specific error. I used the printer software HP and doctor Scan and sometimes (I tried 4 times) it will be just "hang" on the field "communication with the device. Other times it crashes through showing all green checkmarks in this software not showing no conflict (this is while I try to print a test with no results page). I downloaded what I believe to be the latest drivers from HP (DJ1050_J410_1313). After you have uninstalled the original software CD, I installed the new drivers in the same way with still no joy. The last known response seen on my PC was the "door" was closed and had to be opened to print (it was the announcement several days ago). So, I seem to be communication, when I opened the inner door to access the ink cartridges during printing, the HP software warning me to close the doors to continue printing done burst upward (which was just my attempt at troubleshooting if there is a communication between the printer and my PC). I tried printing, Outlook, Word, Notepad, HP software, email (online) all with the same events that results. My printer is set by default. Also set on USB001 Virtual Print Driver with my usb port (how hard, it is connected to my PC). I have tried to change the main usb wire with another, still communication, but not printing. I'm not completely PC illiterate, but I have to admit no small degree of frustration and loss of meaning.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  I tried just a drain of my registry to verify there is no conflict with drivers or double entries and found nothing. Cleaned all register the same and attempt to print a Word document and still the same results.

  I realized I should explain some of the other things I've tried: restart the PC (twice). Restart the print spooler in Services. Back by unplugging the power cord and wait 15 seconds to connect.  Dance a jig, walk around my chair... everything you can think back on this printer (well... maybe not that extreme, it feels just like that)

  Thank you once again

  Hi @mrewho

  I know that this can be a frustrating experience, I'm happy to work through it with you. In a first time ice it seems you have done everything but yell at the Moon, I mean you did a jig, that should do the trick!

  You have the printer USB cable connected to a 2.0 or a 3.0 on the computer port? I'm sure you know the difference, but for the other members of the community who may refer to our conversation of help, here's an image to see what to look for;

  

  3.0 ports are supposed to be backwards compatible, but I've seen problems occur when they are used for printers.

  If you are already connected to a 2.0 port we can try something else, I don't think not that you tried again, the printer Installation Wizard. I know that you have uninstalled and reinstalled several times between the jigs and indirect Chair, but have you tried the printer Install Wizard (PIW)?

  If no, please uninstall your software again, then remove the server properties if driver is have not deleted during the uninstallation, then use the PIW.

  1. The new software - uninstall the printer software Instructions

  2. 1. in the folder "devices and printers".

     2. choose "print server properties.

     • Win XP - with no printer selected, click 'File' then 'server properties '.
     • Windows Vista - with no printer selected, press 'Alt' and then click 'file' then 'server properties '.
     • Windows 7/8 and 8.1 - Select any printer in the "Devices and printers" folder and click on "Print server properties" above.

     3. click on the "Drivers" tab at the top of the window "properties of the print server.

     4. choose the printer that you want to uninstall, and then click 'remove '.

     5. choose "Remove driver only.

  6. the next screen will give a warning, letting you know that the removal of the driver package will remove it from the system. Click 'Yes' to say are you sure you want to do.

• Download and run the HP printer install wizard for Windows

Please go back to let me know if that fixes the problem, thanks. Fingers crossed!

• HP Deskjet 2050A: HP 2050 A wil not print photographs

  Printer prints Documents Word ok, but do not print phootgraphs.  When I click on the 'Print' button, it says "Send to printer", but printer is unable to print.

  Hi Gerry, thanks for getting back to me!

  I would say uninstalling the software of the printer.

  Once it is uninstalled, I suggest you put your system in clean boot mode in the configuration of Microsoft.  You can do this by following this document: How to perform a clean boot in Windows.

  Once the computer is in clean boot mode, I would suggest to reinstall the HP printer install wizard for Windows.

  Please let me know how it goes!

• DeskJet 940c: new 78xl cartridge will not print on Deskjet 940c

  bought 78xl tricolor cartridge.  Have only used the 78 before regular.  New cartridge will not print.  Replaced by the old cartridge - printed perfectly.  When I opened the printer, the cartridges for the little happy face moving, I have not a clue as to what is happening.  I would simply return this cartridge?  The 78xl is compatible with the 940 c?  15 black continues to print well.

  ARGHHHH.  Help, please...

  Hey @JaniBee ,

  Yes I recommend you return the faulty new cartridge and replace it! If you buy the new cartridge and it fails well then let me know and we can look at the printer and excludes a faulty cartridge error.

  Get back to me and let me know! Have a great day and a wonderful holiday season!

• IPad does not print, low on ink message

  I have iOS iPad running 7.0.3 and office jet 8500 a910 firmware lrp1fn123ar. AirPrint works ok until about a month ago, but it's not. When I print from an application such as the mail, iPad comes up with the message 'low on printer ink', followed by the message "check printer to find errors. The printer display comes with 'incompatibility of paper, paper size or type is incorrect. Printer is not low on ink and prints ok from my hp laptop wireless. Followed the guidelines of resetting hp and apple for router, printer etc., but always the same error each time. I also installed hp sprint app and same error comes.

  Hi Rowlinson,

  Thanks for the quick response.

  You're right, AirPrint is not an option to change the size of the paper so the when the print job is sent to the printer using AirPrint is search paper of the size of the document request. I suspect that the printer is 8½ "x 11" LETTER size research.  If you want to be able to change the paper size you can try to use HP ePrint app.  I have included a document with HP ePrint Mobile App FAQ as well as a document on how to get started with ePrint.

  For the invalid message of low ink, I have included a link to a specific document to this message when the ink is not low.

  Low ink warning message appears after installing a new ink cartridge

• HP Officejet 8600: HP Officejet Pro 8600 - does not print lower 1/3 of the page

  Text & images on lower 1/3 of the pages do not print on my 8600. I believe that I have updated the printer drivers and my laptop HP dv7 Envy.  I think I checked all the settings - however, the problem persists. Any help would be appreciated.

  Hey @gmi7envy,

  Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

  I see you have a partial page printing problem when you use your HP Officejet Pro 8600 e-all-in-one printer. I want to help you with this. I have some suggestions that might help.

  I think it is a problem of software, but just in case, try to make a copy of the façade - if printing result is normal appearance, fine. If this is not the case, click here to access hardware troubleshooting tips from HP.

  Assuming you were able to make a decent copy of the façade, we will assume that your printing problems are focused on software. Accordingly, I recommend you try the following steps:

  Uninstall your printer

  • Press the Windows key + r
  • Type of control panel and press enter
  • Click on programs and features
  • Select the driver for your printer from the list, and then click on uninstall.

  Remove temporary files from your PC:

  • Press the Windows key + r
  • Type %temp%, and then press enter
  • Press Ctrl + a to select all files
  • Press Delete
  • Note that some files do not delete - do not worry, this is normal. Simply click ignore that you're prompted.
  • Empty your trash at the end.

  Download the printer Installation Wizard

  Click here to install the HP printer install wizard (instead of directly using the printer driver). When you run it, this utility will facilitate what I hope it's a smoother and more efficient printer installation.

  Please let me know the result of your troubleshooting by responding to this post. If I helped you to solve the problem, feel free to give me a virtual h.o.t. by clicking on the 'Thumbs Up' icon below and clicking 'resolved' (this will help others find the solution).

  Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

  Have a great day!

• HP Officejet 7110 will not print dessu 1 inch

  My HP inkjet 7110 does not print the top 1-inch of any document.  Even the preview shows the top cut if the top margin is set to lecss to 1 inch.  I reloaded the installation disc and tried borderless printing, nothing seems to solve this problem.

  After several hours chatting with several people from HP, the consensus is that HP will send a new machine.  Thanks for the help.
