• DeskJet 2540: Cannot SAVE document after scanning it (SAVE grey button)

  I recently bought a new Macbook Pro and migrated all data, software, etc. during my old MacBook Air. Everything went successfully.

  A problem, I just noticed that I have, however, is with saving a document scanned to a file. The "SAVE" button is grayed out.

  So, wireless, I can scan the document (s) - no problem. Only, I can't save it. This applies to all formats - pdf, tiff, jpeg, etc.

  This was never a problem on my MacBook Air.

  Please let me know if you have encountered a similar problem and how I could go about solving.

  Thank you very much.

  Had the same issue, in anticipation of a software update for OS Sierra HP, you can press on print and then save them in PDF format. It worked for me until HP updates its software I guess.

• HP Deskjet 2540 - documents stuck in print only

  I have a paper stuck in printing on my HP Deskjet 2540. I am running Windows 8.1 and this printer works wirelessly. I tried to remove and cancel and nothing happens. I can't print anything. How can I fix?

  Helen

  Hi Helen,

  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

• 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

• 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!

• DeskJet 2540: Scanning error

  Nothing wrong with printing - the computer recognizes that she and I can print etc. However, I am unable to do two things:
  1. install the wireless connection
  2 do the analysis. When you use the "print and Scan Doctor", I get this message:
  Driver error: the scan driver is unable to communicate with the product.

  I removed and reconnected the power cord and restart the computer, but it still does not work.

  I jumped the scan after that and found that everything (except Driver and HP Twain Scan error check) has a green check mark.

  Would be grateful for the help. Thank you!

  • Disable all Antivirus programs. Disable Antivirus software.
  • Disable all firewall programs. Turn Windows Firewall on or off.

• HP Deskjet 2540: The printer is offline

  Hello world!

  I have a printer HP Deskjet 2540, which works fine until I bought a new modem WLAN. The old modem Netgear 4 G LTE WLAN S and a new Huawei 4 G WLAN E5377. My computer and tablet work well with this new device, but the printer is not. I tried to put the modem, printer and computer off and restart them, but it did not help me. I removed the Windows Firewall, it did not help. I tried all sorts of troubleshooting and to take off a printer from the list of printers and install it again. I downloaded HP scan and print doctor without any help. I printed the list of WLANs testresults. He told me that the SSID is always the old name of modem. What I need to change this name to be again? How to do?

  Please, help me to solve this problem.

  Thanks for your help.

  Kind regards

  Anja

  Hello fellifel,

  You will need the new modems to the printer, such as the SSID and the new password information. You can either follow the procedure described in this document, to:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03820126

  Or you can also change your SSID and password to what it was with the old modem, and printer should just reconnect. If you do it this way, you will need to change your computer and the Tablet back as well.

  I see that you can not use the HP scanning app, please explain in more detail what is wrong.

  What is the error message that you receive?

  Have you tried to scan from another application, such as Apple Image Capture?

  Hi brugar,

  Thanks for getting back to me with the information on the computer.

  I have a few steps we can take to try to solve this problem.

  First of all, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a bar/power strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer for example, but it is intended for HP products in general. Please click the link which explains the problems when connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power.

  Please remove the USB from the printer and computer, and leave that it disconnected until further notice.

  Please click on the link that explains the steps to uninstall the printer software.

  Once the uninstall is complete, reboot the computer.

  When the computer is back running, disable the firewall or anti virus protection so that it does not all conflicts cause when we do the installation.

  Please click on the following link for the HP Deskjet 2540 all-in-One Printer series full feature software and drivers.

  Save the file on the desktop so that it creates its own icon.  This will make it easy to find download.

  Double-click the new icon and follow the installation steps.  The installation will prompt you as to connect the usb cable then please do not it connect before hand.

  If troubleshooting doesn't help not solve your problem, then I would say call the HP Technical Support to see all the other possibilities for you. If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, please click here: click here.

  Thanks for your time.

• HP deskjet2542: door-cartridge Hp deskjet 2540

  Cartridge door disappeared. How can I get a replacement?

  Hey @Supergran1,

  Welcome to the HP forums! I hope you enjoy your stay here.

  I see that you are having problems with the transport on your Deskjet 2540. I can help you with that.

  For starters, transport on this printer doesn't have to be a removable piece. If you try to replace the cartridges from the printer must be connected and turned on. Once it is on, if you open the door at the bottom of the printer the transport should slide and you should be able to insert your cartridges. You can find more information on cartridge replacement in this document.

  If you have any other questions please let me know. If this resolves your problems then please click on accept as Solution below my post.

  I hope this helps and I hope you have a great week!

• 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.

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

  Updates.

  Have a great day.
