  • HP Deskjet 2540: Problem printing with HP deskjet 2540

    Hello world.

    I need assistance with my printer. Sorry but I am not English native language so I hope you will understand everything.

    I have a HP deskjet printer and Windows 8 2540.

    The problem is that when you're printing suddenly stops printing. But if I try to print single pages, it prints again.

    When it stops print anything in the print queue as if she have all the.

    It usually occurs with the PDF file.

    I tried to search on the hp support page and I followed the instructions about to disable the printer spooler because maybe can give problem while printing, I did it but when I tried to print again the computer give me a message like this "If you want to print you need to install a printer" but it is not uninstalled the printer, its status is "ready to print".

    Can you help me please? Because I do not understand, and he is not the first time that the printer give me problem while printing.

    Thank you and sorry for my bad English

    You are welcome.

    Unless you disable the print spooler service, it will restarts when you then start / restart the computer.  In almost all cases, it is a good thing.

    You can find the startup type control:

    Control Panel > display icon > Administrative Tools > Services >

    Services opens > defiler scroll down, find the print spooler > right-click on print spooler click >

    Opens properties > startup type: > select from the menu:

    • Automatic
    • Automatic (delayed start)
    • Manual
    • People with disabilities

    You can, if you wish, change the options in the print spooler > Properties > recovery tab

    One of the most interesting Print Recovery options: restart the computer

    • Restart the computer may be initiated at the first, second, or one point of future failure.

    "Restart the computer" (without the clearing of the PRINTERS folder) can be used to stop and restart the spooler then (at startup).  The restart procedure could allow 'stuck' print jobs to resume printing.

    The option "Restart the computer" could be useful in a situation printing is a main function of the computer and the printer is supposed to work without supervision / outside normal office hours.

    When you configure the "Restart the computer" option, you can enable "actions for stops with errors."  For example, you can send a message to the computers on the network, which indicates the computer will be restarted within a certain time.

  • Cannot install hp deskjet printer 2540 Windows XP

    You just bought the HP Deskjet 2540. The printer installed on Vista without a hitch and everything works well.

    BUT I can not install hp deskjet printer 2540 on my Windows XP. I get an error that says ' Broadcom 802.11 network adapter g no driver selected for the device set or set information.»

    Any suggestions to help me install on Windows XP would be appreciated.

    Hello billgrazia,

    Welcome to the forums.

    I understand that you are not able to install your Deskjet 2540 on your Windows XP system, but you were able to install it on your Vista system. I would suggest a step to try.

    Perform a clean boot:

    Step 1: Open the System Configuration utility

    Click Start and run, type msconfig, and then click OK.
    The System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.
    Step 2: Configure selective startup options

    In the System Configuration Utility dialog box, click the general tab, and then click Selective startup.
    Click to clear the process SYSTEM. INI file check box.
    Click to clear the process GAIN. INI file check box.
    Click to uncheck the box load startup items. Check that load System Services and use Original BOOT. INI are checked.
    Click the Services tab.
    Click to select the hide all Microsoft Services check box.
    Click Disable all, and then click OK.
    When you are prompted, click on restart to restart the computer.

    Seen here boot steps: how to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State

    Then, try to install the printer, while the start up programs are turned off: 2540 Deskjet HP all-in-One Printer series full feature software and drivers

    If it does not help with the installation successfully, run it the Microsoft Fix it tool: the problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled and then try to install.

    Once the installation is complete, go back to clean boot instructions to relight the start up programs.

    I hope this helps,

    Kind regards

  • HP Deskjet 2540: Wireless printing problems with HP Deskjet 2540

    Hi all

    I have a problem with a printer HP Deskjet 2540 - it prints if I connected a USB cable; However, he refuses to print if I try to print wireless.

    I had initially solved this problem when I went into system preferences > printers and Scanners and noticed two 2540 Deskjet series icons in a window titled 'Printers '. I ended up removing one of these icons and set it as a default, which temporarily seems to solve my problem. Now, I see two icons back in the "Printers" menu and my printer refuses to print over my wireless connection.

    My printer is connected to my internet connection so I don't think there is a problem here - I also recently installed the software for this printer to make sure it wasn't some kind of driver issue; However, it doesn't give me the permanent solution, that I'm looking.

    Any advice? My operating system is OS X Version 10.9.5

  • HP deskjet 3055a: can't choose my network on the printer hp deskjet 3055a

    I changed my router with an Apple Aiport Extreme 2nd generation but now I can't connect my printer to the wireless network: the integrated printer display does not provide a menu in which I could choose any wifi network. I have already connected this printer to the network even a couple of years ago, but at that time there I probably used the software from the cd provided, which is no longer compatible with OS X 10.10 Yosemite. I can not even find an update to this software on Hp.com, since he says that it is just enough to use the Apple driver for the use of the printer.

    How can I configure wifi now?

    Hello

    No matter which utility allows you to configure a wireless connection is avaialble ot for Yosemite, your router does support ot WPS as well.

    To work around this and the pritner to connect to your wireless network, follow these steps:

    1. Press the wireless button, click the button next to settings, click the button next to the setting.
    2. Press the wireless button, click the button next to settings, then on the button next to Enable Wireless (if they are presented... so disable Wireless does not skip this step).
    3. Turn the printer and then on again once, make sure that the wireless is turned on the blue wireless light flashes.
    4. Since the Mac, click the WiFi icon, then join the other networks.
    5. Click view the networks and select the HP Deskjet 3055 rated network.
    6. Open Safari and go to http://192.168.223.1.
    7. Open the network tab, and then select wireless configuration wizard.
    8. Follow the steps to connect the printer to your wireless router, once you have completed the wireless light should turn on solid.
    9. Reconnect the Mac on your home network, and then add the printer under printers & Scanner by clicking the button "+" if it is not already listed.

    Original title: printer is offline

    using Windows 7 and 8.1 of Windows via a shared house group the WF-2540 Epson printer is off line.  This printer uses with two PCs using Windows 7 and a PC using Windows 8 with no problems.  Today it usually just printing using 1 PC with 7-1 8.  It is connected to the PC works well.  This isn't wired wireless we have wireless at the office.   Use this way for years with no problems, then suddenly this morning its all stopped.  I read so much information on it with no satisfactory response.  Epson will not know that it is not connected via radio or directly with a PC, so I'll through in circles.

    I reinstalled the PC on Windows 8 PC nothing works.  Any suggestions as to what I can try next as business has ground to stand without the printer!

  • 3520e DeskJet prints too big of top margin or reduced size image

    HP DJ 3520e on Win7 64-bit.

    The 3520e DeskJet printer works fine, but it prints with too great a margin. If I reinstall the printer using Win7 driver, it has good top margin and size, but it lacks two-sided. The problem is especially annoying when I try to print from InDesign CS5.

    In other programs, the HP printer driver prints the picture at a reduced size.

    If you try to double-sided, then you will need to manually duplex items of the correct margins. Here is a post I made about why it happens. It is a problem with the mechanics and not with the software.
