HP Officejet 5740: Cannot print from Windows 10

Since the upgrade to Win10 I can no longer connect and print from my Officejet 5740. Other machines / devices in the House (not Win10) can print very well. The printer always showed "offline". I tried to remove and re-add them, but it doesn't give me the 'DIRECT' option - I can get into my router wireless WPS PIN (by the other responses on this forum), but it says it cannot connect.

Any other suggestions?

Thank you

Hello

Nothing wrong with your printer, please DO NOT touch to him. To repair your computer, please download the software package and the following driver and install on your machine Windows 10:

  • OfficeJet 5740: Cannot print duplex automatically and can not connect wireless

    So, I recently bought a new laptop for academic purposes. Back in September, I bought the HP Officejet 5740 because it could print wireless and can print double sided also.

    Everything worked perfectly fine when I was using Windows 8. In microsoft office, that I could see the option to print double-sided and had no difficulty, printing or the connection to the wireless printer.

    Then, I upgraded my computer to windows 10. I downloaded the hp driver and tried to add the printer several times and did not get it to connect successfully. Moreover, I see more two-sided printing option. I have the option to print one, or to manually return the documents to make it double sided.

    I downloaded the driver installed the printer and uninstalled the printer a LOT, a LOT of time with nothing doesn't. Please help me. I really only print in powerpoint and word, so it is very important to have this ability.

    For the connectivity problem, I would say the Print and Scan doctor, you can download it from HP to http://www.hp.com/go/tools.

    For the duplex issue make sure the duplex module is selected.  Click on start, devices and printers, click with the right button on the Officejet 5740, select printer, device settings, both installable and set properties automatic duplexing on installed unit, apply, OK.

  • OfficeJet 5740: Cannot fax from the computer

    My new Officejet 5740, purchased on 11/15/14, worked fine until February 2015 - no problem with any of its functions, including faxes.

    That was all the time I went from a wireless connection to a USB connection and since then out of faxes cannot be sent from the computer, even if they can be sent from the printer by using the LED screen. There is no problem with the incoming faxes.

    Sending the printer with the LED screen is a nuisance of errors compared to the convenience of use of the computer. Lengthy discussions with HP Technical Support have been of any help. The technicians seem to think I should just give up and use the LED screen on the printer.

    After trying in vain to send an outgoing fax using the computer, the Fax status window appears saying "queue... "as the status of the fax, and it never goes one further.

    Is it possible that my passage in wireless USB connection type caused the problem? Maybe I need a different driver? If Yes, where can I download one, and what should I go for? Thank you.

    Hello!

    I bought a printer all-in-one Officejet 4630 a few months ago, and all went well until a few days ago: all of a sudden, I was unable to print Word files (2013), or Notepad files ("the parameter is incorrect" message).

  • HP 6500 E709n cannot print from Windows 7 wireless

    I have 3 computers on my office network at home and a HP 6500 E709n with a wireless connection to the router. The printer does everything it's supposed to the XP machine. On the 2 computers running Windows 7, the printer will scan and fax but not print.

    When I used the USB cable to connect the printer to a Windows 7 computer, the functions worked well. So, apparently, is not just a matter of having the right driver (and I now reinstalled Windows 7 driver twice after my hard disk cleanup at best). I've checked absolutely everything, and all the recognitions seems to work going both ways. But whenever I try to send a document to the printer to Windows 7, it just sits in the queue.

    Other users have this problem? Is that what someone has solved? Thank you.

    I have a few PCs in a network running on Windows ME, and I would get very BASIC printing, connect to a HP Officejet Pro L7680 all-in-One color in the same network. I don't have scanning or fax, only very basic print options. Suggestions how to recover a basic driver?

    Thanks in advance

    All you have to do is to add a TCP/IP printer to the printers IP address port and install the HP Deskjet 990c printer driver included with ME (?). which should help you to print.

  • Cannot print using Windows 7 using HP Deskjet 842C series

    I cannot print from windows 7 using HP Deskjet 842 C series.  Windows and HP said is compatible, it can only print from other applications and not Windows 7.  Any suggestions?

    I cannot print from windows 7 using HP Deskjet 842 C series.  Windows and HP said is compatible, it can only print from other applications and not Windows 7.  Any suggestions?

    In fact - what HP means without out and say what they deem a legacy device (printer) and even if they included a universal driver (Microsoft put in Windows 7) and it should work without doing you anything else - it is perhaps not fully functional as it was in previous operating systems where they (HP) it supported.

    HP in this case is the manufacturer of the equipment and in all related case material - the hardware manufacturer is responsible for the materiel support (drivers, software, etc.)

    You can follow the advice of HP, if you want to:

    But really what they're trying to say is, "your printer is old - buy a new one from us so that we can stay in business."

  • HP Officejet Pro 6830: 6830 windows 8 8.1 cannot print from the windows test page

    When it is connected to 'own' windows - it prints OK.

    When it is connected to the windows where are the normal software like office, autocad, adobe and so those installed, the printer does not print anything - test page from printer properties is the first problem that means...

    Only "free software priter" is able to print something (test pages and so one) also print doctor and installation wizzard prints what it can, but not possible 'to normal windows print"... :-(

    It is tested on:

    Software for laptop - Win 8 Pro - installed - no. PRINT

    Surface 3 Pro - Win 8.1 - software installed - no. PRINT

    Laptop - 8.1 Pro - clean shop - PRINTING POSSIBLE Win (after installation of the driver full download - in a test with autopilot installed it does not print)

    Virtual - Win 7 Ultimate - installed software - PRINTING POSSIBLE

    (installed software means office, autocad, adobe,...)

    It seems that some components of system installed with one software disables printing from windows.

    When looked at open before printing to the printer - it shows the print job (which is not printed) for 0.1 second and nothing is displayed - also when the printer is paused - it shows the work and it is deleted immediately - left must work until the printer not suspended...

    It is not a firewall issue (tested), it has been tested on: USB, WiFi, LAN. No way to print something from windows 8 and upwards.

    seems that it has something with the option run the program as administrator.

    tested on some programs - autocad, adobe, word excel,... - when run as administrator it prints OK.

    If you do not have the option in the context menu try to hold Shift before made a - right click and run as admin

    It's odd - some print settings are transferred with work, for example, winword impression (office) without admin - PDF Factory (virtual printer) - rights and then to the physical printer 6830 - he can't be printed to PDF Factory

    But if you start winword as an administrator - so you can print directly or through PDF Factory hassle

    ---------------------------------------------------------

    Personally, I see this as a big mistake by Microsoft - that something like this can happen - simple direct printing is not possible after you have connected the printer... :-(:-(:-(

  • My HP Officejet Pro 8600 cannot print from my MacBook Air

    Hello

    My HP Officejet Pro 8600 cannot print from my MacBook Air. It keeps on showing "the printer is not connected", but the display on the printer connected. I often reset the printer "EVERY TIME" I want to use. I also tried to turn off my laptop and printer several times before printing. If I'm lucky, it will work maybe for one or two prints. If no luck then I have to reset everything again. Sometimes I reset the printer, the printer is not displayed on my selection.

    Hello boojoo1tw,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you are unable to print most of the time with your Officejet 8600. How is the printer connected? USB or wireless? What is your operating system on your Mac computer? Click here to find out.

    If your wireless printer, then I recommend the award of an 'IP address' by following this HP document on printer does not maintain the wireless connection.

    Please post your results, I'll be looking forward to hear from you.
