• 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.

  If I helped you to solve the problem, feel free to give me a virtual h.o.t. by clicking the "Thumbs Up" icon below and by clicking to accept this solution. Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

• using HP Deskjet 2540 with imac G5

  Hello

  just bought an imac G5 and can't make it work with my HP Deskjet 2540 either wired or wireless?  Some States not supported on the CD, and once again when I try to download the software online.  Any suggestions?

  Thanks WJ.

  Hi Williyjohn,

  What version of Mac OS X is on the Mac G5? How can I find which Mac OS X Version is on my computer?

  2540 Deskjet will not work with 10.5 and below, it is only compatible with 10.6 and above. I suspect that you have an older operating system on the Mac and therefor, the software cannot be installed.

  It might be a good idea to buy a newer Mac.

  Please go on the HP Forums!

• Series Deskjet 2540 always busy

  Hello

  Since a few days my new 2540 Deskjet is always in use. I'm on OS X 10.9.2 and latest drivers. When I try printing (Airprint and USB connection) the PrinterProxy app connects to the printer and updates the status of "the printer is in use. Sometimes it prints after 15 minutes of waiting, sometimes the printjob just disappears.

  I tried this:

  -Reinstalled drivers

  -Printer completely reconfigured

  -Reset the printer

  No luck, are there other things I can do to fix this? Or would it be a hardware problem?

  They need support Hello, which will include the correct port openings.  Hello is sometimes called mDNS and is referred to as multicasting.

  You can refer to those with them and see what they say - or just get your own compatible router and use their box only for the modem part.

• HP Deskjet 2540 won't print pdf file

  Hello

  I have a HP Deskjet 2540 printer which was working fine until today when I tried to print a PDF on the net.  I get a screen saying it is flattening, and then the printer makes a noise as if it will work and then nothing.  When I check the device, he says that nothing is waiting to print.  When I tried to print it directly from the internet (using Chrome) it just print plain paper!  When I saved the document to PDF and tried to print, nothing like as detailed above.  I am using Winows 7.

  Thank you very much

  Hi Alain,

  Welcome to the HP Forums.

  I see you are having a problem printing PDF documents from the internet.
  I'll be happy to help you.

  I have provided a document through the steps to see if it will solve this problem.

  How to print Acrobat .pdf files? Some PDF files cause blank pages being printed.

  If you're still having problems, then I would run the updates from Adobe.

  Updates.

  If the problem persists, let me know.

  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums.
  Have a great day.

• HP Deskjet 2540 all-in-one: HP Deskjet 2540 does not print

  I bought my printer a while ago and implemented so I could print wireless from my Mac. The other day I had to print some PDF documents and printed first, but the other two never printed. In the queue, it says "ready to print" and the two buttons wireless to the printer are turned on. It also does not print when I connect it to the USB port. But when I print the test page, which printed fine.

  Hey @bess-stanton1,.

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

  I see that you have some problems with your machine printing Mac OSX 10.11 for the all-in-one printer Deskjet 2540. I can help you with that.

  To start, make sure that the printer is plugged directly into a wall outlet, not a surge protector. Once done:

  1. Disconnect the USB cable if it is connected.
  2. Turn the printer off.
  3. While the printer is turned off, disconnect the power cable from the back of the router.
  4. When the lights come back on the router, turn on the printer.
  5. Close any programs you have open.
  6. On your Mac, click on your Apple icon, system preferences and printers and Scanners.
  7. Hold down the CTRL key and click on an icon of your printer on the left.
  8. Click on reset printing system.
  9. Click the 'more' in the lower left corner.
  10. Select your printer from the list.
  11. Click in the box next to and select your printer from the list.
  12. Click on Add.

  Please let me know if you can print after you follow the above. If you can, please click on accept solution. If you appreciate my help, please click on the thumbs up icon. The two icons are below this post.

• HP Deskjet 2540: installed printer now get the HP StatusBl.dll error

  I have a new Dell computer.  I have a Windows 7 with a free upgrade to a Windows 10.  While Windows 7 I have intalled a HP Deskjet 2540 printer then computer upgraded to Windows 10.  Now on Windows 10.  I uninstalled the printer HP Deskjet 2540 and now get the HP StatusBL.dll error every time when I start the computer.  I drive and looked at disk to find L4uninstall.exe and can't find it.  The disc has a Util directory but no directory of CCC in the Util directory.  How can I get rid of this error at startup of the computer.  I love the HP products!

• Cannot print from Android phone to 2540 Deskjet using Direct wireless

  I try to print a document on my Android for my Deskjet 2540 phone using wireless live (so without a router involved).  I downloaded the HP ePrint app for my phone and have pressed the button wireless directly on the printer (the led next to it is on).  I enabled Wi - Fi radio on my phone and have made a link to my printer.

  But when I try to print the document (a pdf.doc) I get the following on my phone error message: no internet connection.  Please check your network settings, and then try again.

  Can you please help?  Thank you.

  Hi Kyle72,

  Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I believe that when your Android mobile device is connected to the direct wireless network of your 2540 Deskjet that you can access the document, and you get a connection error message.

  When you are connected to the direct the printer wireless network can not access the internet.  If the document you are trying to print does not live on your mobile device, you must copy the file to your phone to be able to print it.  I have included the link to HP Wireless PrintingCenter - HP wireless Direct.  He has a good summary on HP wireless Direct with instructions on how to connect to it and how to use it.

• DeskJet 2540 all-in-one

  When you use "Scan to email" a window pops up "unable to find mail account" Although there are accounts of e-mail on my pc. the printer is connected to my pc with the usb cable and installed for use with cable and wireless use.

  Hello spoi.

  Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand your concerns with the Deskjet 2540.

  Unfortunately, "Scan to Email" is not available with this printer. Now, there is a solution. You can scan a document to your computer, open your e-mail account and attach this document.

  What kind of e-mail do you use? If you check this, I provide steps to show you how to scan a document, then attach a file to your email.

  This printer must really have a connection. You want to connect to this printer via a USB cable or wireless?

  Impatience on your part.

  Hello

• 2540 DeskJet not print all rows in the column

  I am satisfied with my new 2540 Deskjet, except on the simple Excel documents it prints only a portion of the lines even if the grid is checked. This never happened with my old dell printer.

  Hi CathB123,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  If printing works well in other programs, I recommend this site, print gridlines in a worksheet. I would also try using the HP print and Scan Doctor, in which case there may be a driver conflict.

  Otherwise, if it does not help, please contact Microsoft Office technical support. The Agency supports, as I am not familiar with Excel.

  Good luck!

• HP Deskjet 2540: Scanner Communication cannot be established.

  My scanner does not work. I am connected by USB. I've tried everything suggested by HP print and Scan doctor. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the software for the device, but it still does not work. I'm very angry because it worked fine for 3 months. I went out of town for the winter holidays and took my computer with me. I left my HP Deskjet 2540 to my apartment. Now that I'm back it no longer works.

  Here are the mistakes doctor analysis gives me:

  Driver error:

  The scanning driver is unable to communicate with the product.

  HP Scanner Twain error:

  I followed the steps, he told me but even after restarting the computer of the Scan Doctor is unable to solve the problem and he just told me to come here and ask online. I really need this scanner set as soon as possible for my work in the classroom. It is very frustrating that my HP Deskjet 2540 broke shortly after buying it.

  Too bad. Solved the problem by changing a connection of 3 USB-a USB 2 connection. For some reason any Scanner HP Deskjet 2540 cannot use via a USB 3.0 connection.

  I don't know why it is exactly, but that's what I did and now it works.
