HP Deskjet 2540: The printer is offline

• HP Deskjet 2540: The printer does not work.

  My printer does not print the page, I am sinking.  Instead it tries to download a page that I tried to download a few days ago and he has yet to recognize the page.  It was an image of the Liberty Bell, so I assumed it was copyrighted and would allow me to print and I rejected the page.  Apparently he is stuck somewhere in the printer and it does not load and therefore does not allow me to print the page that I need now.  How can I get this thing off my storage or my printer?  I watched everything I know to review and check in the printer itself.  I do not know how to remove the application printing the page because I can't find in the computer anywhere.

  If you can help me, I would be very grateful

  Thank you

• 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

• doing just that, means "the printer is offline"?

  There must be an easy way and foolproof to get the printer started, but what is? Sometimes I managed, and sometimes I'm not. I try to unplug the power cord and the cord to connect my printer to my computer. I also delete jobs displayed in the status window. Usually, I repeat these steps several times. Then, when my printer feels like to leave, he will eventually start... usually.

  While trying to fix my printer, I sometimes see the words, "the printer is offline. I guess that's one of the reasons why my printer does not work, but what it means, and what I can do about it?

  I must add that this problem arises usually when a print job is interrupted due to a paper jam.  In addition, you must know that I have a Macintosh running OS 10.6.7 and I have a HP psc 1350 all-in-one printer-scanner-copier -.

  Hey!

  Printer offline medium. It is not active now.

  There could be a number of reasons...

  Printer is not communicating with the computer.

  The printer is in "sleep".

  Lost wireless connection. etc...

  Just to be safe. Your printer is ready (power light solid) mode

  Then, select the printer icon and click on - sign to remove it. And click on + sign add it again.

  It will search for the printer icon, and then will show you a list.

  Just select your printer and click on Add.

  However, I would like to know what type of connection you use.

  USB, ethernet or wireless.

• After clearing a jam on HP5520, the printer is offline, not coming back

  First time I had a paper jam and I pulled out the paper.  Tried to print and the printer is offline.  Don't know how to get online again.  No light on.

  Hello cezorn,

  Welcome to the HP Forums.

  When you said that the printer is 'Off Line', do you mean that the printer does not connect to the computer or that the printer feeds NOT on at all?

  Whatever it is, 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 write me back when you have time and I will be happy to help you.

  See you soon,.

  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!

• HP Deskjet 2540: My printer cannot connect to the wireless network (SSID is not found)

  Hello

  I have a HP Deskjet 2540 printer that is configured to print using the USB cable, and I have no problem printing through it. I just bought a router (D-link DWR116) and I'm trying to set up the connection to the router wireless to my printer. When I use the printer setup & software and select the option "convert a connected USB printer wireless", I can choose to enter into the setting of the printer access the router automatically or manually. These two will come with the same problem where the program is my name SSID of the router successfully but then failed to connect to what the SSID is not found.

  It comes on it comes up with the error message:

  Question: You have manually entered the name of the network (SSID) cannot be found.
  Solution: Check that your wireless router is powered. When to manually enter the name of your network (SSID), make sure you enter exactly including upper and lower case and spaces.
  ============================================================================================

  Which is meaningless because it came with the SSID earlier and I chose what options the wireless network available. I tried to manually enter the SSID, but after entering the password for the router, the same error message appears.

  Help, please.

  Thank you

  In fact, I solved the problem. Something about the wifi light on the printer. It can not be flashing, I don't know what the blue light flashes on the wofo of the printer, but I don't think that it means that the wifi is on.

• 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

  Viviana

  @ViviHika

  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.
