Hello

You must connect the other end to your network to which your computer is connected. If only a port of this effect and that your computer is using, you need a small switch (with 4 ports) that can cost you about $60.

Kind regards.

  • OfficeJet 5740: Install a printer on a network of schools wireless

    Hello

    I started school this past week and I brought an Officejet 5740 to implement in my dorm, but I had trouble getting it set up. MY laptop is on the network "(University)", but I was tasked to set up the printer on a network called "Device-(University)" and would continue to operate. I have registered my printer on the network "Device-(University)" also using its MAC address, which I was told was also necessary. After all that, I'm still not able to print wireless. I tried to restart the printer, reset the network settings and remove all software printer on my computer and starting from scratch, but nothing has worked.

    If someone has encountered this problem, and if so, is anyone know a solution?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    You can also connect to the printer using the WiFi Direct connection.

    This type of connection (Wifi Direct) connects your camera/laptop Wifi directly on your printer and requires no Wifi router and is the best way that I would use as LONG as I didn't need to keep connecting to the Wifi network router for surfing.

    Also remember to reconnect to your network of WIFI router to get internet connection after printing.

    The password to connect to your Wifi Direct printer is in the display on the front panel of the printer, or you must print it with the WIFi button for 3 sec.

    I hope this helps.

  • OfficeJet 5740 e-all-in-one: the printer display shows 'downloading' message despite no web service implemented

    I got a new Officejet 5740 e-all-in-one and put in place a few days ago. It is implemented in a router which is also a modem.  I've implemented any web service.  My network is password protected, and I'm the only one on this subject.

    A couple of times I arrived in front of the printer and there was a screen that says that there is a current download, and he showed the percent completed. This surprised me because I have not implemented in web services for the printer.

    I cancelled the download, both times.  The second time I accidentally typed the screen again.  I don't know what button I hit, but it has printed a message that says that my printer is now web enabled.  He also says that my printer has an email address.

    I went into the web installer, and it seemed to me that I had not implemented the web.

    1. what could it possibly download?

    2. If it does not complete a download while I'm not looking for, will there be a record of this?

    Hi @Andrew111,

    Thanks for joining the Forums of HP Support for a solution to your printer problem.

    I understand that you use a 5740 Officejet from HP printer e-all-in-one with a computer of Windows 7 and you noticed that the screen of the printer said there was a current download, which you surprised because you but you did not set up web services. I would like to help with that.

    You mentioned that the printer has its own e-mail address. Web services have been enabled for the printer to have an address of mail @hpeprint.com. It is possible to disable the ePrint and printable HP once the HP Web Services has been enabled.

    The download that was underway was probably a printer update, which will come by automatically. Nothing to do with the computer. I don't think there is a record of updates of the printer anywhere.

    Please let me know if that answers your question...

  • OfficeJet 5740: efax for officejet 5740

    How to configure the fax using efax?

    Hi @billharlan

    Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support. I see you want to learn how to set up your printer Officejet 5740 so all eFaxes that your receipt is printed.

    I presume that you have connected your printer to your wireless network or it is connected by an ethernet cable to your router so that the printer has internet access. I'm also assuming that you have already subscribed for eFax.

    To have your eFaxes printing on the printer, you must configure the ePrint printer function. Please start with the code of request to printer. You can use the e-mail address of the printer default ePrint to enter your eFax for an e-mail account to receive faxes too. If you want, you can customize the address of e-mail to HP ePrint.

  • 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:

  • HP Officejet 5740: HP Officejet 5740 printer for laptop connection problem: "cannot find a printer".

    I'm trying to set up my new printer Officejet 5740 and I got to the stage where I need to connect the printer to a laptop computer or mobile device. I went to 123.hp.com and follow-up stages. My printer is correctly connected to the internet, but when I tried to connect it with my laptop via wifi, I got a screen that says "cannot find a printer". Before that, he asked me to put the IP address that appears in the settings of the printer wireless.

    I have a dual band wireless router, and it seems that my printer can connect only to the 2.4 GHz frequency range. My laptop can connect to the scales of 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz. I made sure that the laptop was connected to 2.4 GHz when I did this step. I even Redid the same process on my sister's laptop (she has 10 Windows), but I came across the same problem. In addition, the screen with the error message says what must I make sure that the firewall has not been in the way of the connection. I tried to disable the Windows Firewall, but I still have the same result.

    I am at a loss for what to do here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm positive, I put the correct IP address, and I even tried to use the host name. Also, I know that my laptop and the printer are connected to the same wireless network. Everything I did for this step in the installation process has been with wifi (not ethernet, USB, etc.).

    Good news! I thought about it. I have all my wireless settings to reset to the default factory settings and that fixed the problem. Something about the State of the router must have been extinguished when I put in place the first time. Thank you for helping me!

  • HP Officejet 5740: HP Officejet 5740 impression & analysis of the issues

    Hello

    I just bought a HP 5740 and have implemented to print wireless from my PC, iphone 6, notebk.

    I have the following questions & any advice would be much appreciated:-

    1. is there a limit on the number of wireless devices, I can connect to the printer?

    2. when using the Automatic Document Feeder for scanning/printing of documents, scanned images or impressions appear slightly

    biased.

    Is this likely to be a problem with the ADF?

    I thought possible is to refine the ADF paper tabs more far but I worry about the documents in

    could be stuck causing a jam.

    Thank you.

    Hi @Chrissy_61,

    Welcome to the HP Support forum.

    I understand that you have purchased a HP Officejet 5740 e-all-in-one printer you have connected wireless to a 10 PC Windows, but also an iPhone 6 and a notebook. I will be happy to answer your questions about the limits to the number of wireless devices that can be connected and the output of the ADF is slightly biased.

    There is no real limit to the number of wireless devices can connect to the printer. Devices are actually connecting to the printer on the wireless network of your router, so that it really on the number of the router wireless connections can handle. I've seen some cheaper model routers handle 5 wireless comfortably, but once again, it is more on the router and what are wireless devices on the network the router wireless.

    For the unbalanced output when using the issue of the ADF, you definitely want that paper is loaded properly, and the paper guides are to the edge of the sides of the paper without being so tight that it is originally the paper not to remain flat in the ADF. If you have problems tilt when using the ADF, here is a document that can help - the ADF (ADF) documents do not choose paper. It is a generic document that covers all the printers with ADFs.

    Please let me know if that solves the problem, or if you need assistance.

  • HP Officejet 5740: Msg 'printer is in an error state.

    Hello

    I have a 5740 which is defined as a remote wireless printer by itself in my home network.

    Recently, I received the message 'printer is in an error state' when I press print and found out the print job will be lance automatically, only after I turned the printer off and restarted. What happened several times. I tried to use HP & Doc Scan printing, but this did not help.

    Appreciate your advice on the following points: -.

    1. What is the cause for this?

    2. connecting the printer via the USB port on my HP All in one PC would help eliminate this recurring issue?

    3. If Yes, should I uninstall the printer software first?

    4. always print wireless from my laptop or mobile devices when the printer is connected via a cable to my PC?

    What do I have to uninstall and reinstall the software for printing these devices as well?

    5. when I reinstalled the software, it come a last step where it will ask me to register so far HP ink. As I have already registered for the program, what should I do to allow me to complete the installation of the software without duplicating a new series of HP ink instant registration?

    Thank you.

    Hi @Chrissy_61,

    Thanks for joining the Forums of HP Support for a solution to your printer problem.

    I understand that you use a HP Officejet 5740 e-all-in-one printer with a Windows 10 computer and you need to restart the printer to clear a State of 'error', so the printer will print. I would like to help with that.

    There are also a few different reasons why something like this can happen. It could possibly be network or firewall related, or maybe even related software.

    I would like to begin by downloading and running the tool HP Print and Scan Doctor to check the installed printer software. This tool can diagnose and solve many problems of printing software and printer.

    You can also check to make sure that the printer firmware is up-to-date. On the Control Panel Home screen controle control printer, drag your finger from right to left on the screen and select Setup. In the menu select Maintenance of the printerconfiguration, and then select update of the printer, and then look for the updates of the printer.

    If the printer doesn't have the printing problem with PC and not with cell phones and mobile devices, you can try following the steps described in this document of support - printer is offline (Windows).

    If you plan to use a USB between PC and the printer connection, you do not need to uninstall the software, you just remove the printer devices and printers on the computer and connect the USB cable.

    You can always the printer wirelessly with other devices if you have a computer with a USB cable.

    Finally, you need not re-register with the HP Instant ink. You can close the windows when they open after you have installed the software.

    Please let me know if that solves the problem, or if you need assistance.

  • OfficeJet 5740: How to use ePrint

    I just bought an OfficeJet 5740.  I just got an email from HP with my e-mail address of the printer.  I have an iPhone 5 s.

    I have no idea as to what to do with the printer email address or what it does.   Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    1 printer e-mail is very useful for ePrint. You can send a file supported document formats from anywhere (with internet access) in this word in your printer to print because it is also connected to the internet.

    2. your compatible printer AirPrint and ePrint. You can print from your phone using both ways.

  • HP Officejet 5740 e-All-In-One: multiple frustrations with printer e-all-in-one-hp officejet 5740.

    I have a HP Officejet 5740-e all-in-one that has all sorts of problems: periodically decides not to print documents from one of my laptops HP or Lenovo.  Do not accept ink cartridges HP Instant ink or HP ink cartridges purchased in a store.  Unable to get decent support for this HP product.  Is essentially a disposable item now?

    As far as I know that there is no user replaceable parts in these lower end home use printers. So if nine ink cartridges do not work, and seeing that the cost of the printer is less than $ 100, Yes... it's basically a Jet printer away. Wish I had better news for you.

  • 5740 HP Officejet printer: HP Officejet 5740 prints all lines of poor quality of black ink, a few lines thru

    New printer, getting the veins through every few lines of print black ink

    Hi @Badgermitt,

    Thanks for joining the Forums of HP Support for a solution to your printing problem.

    I understand that you use a HP Officejet 5740 e-all-in-one printer with a PC of Windows 8 and the printed text has black steaks through every few lines. I would like to help with that.

    Black lines through the text is usually due to present an accumulation of debris around of the cartridge that can usually be solved by cleaning cartridges or ink. This can be done in the control panel of the printer.

    Cleaning of the cartridges is discussed in this support material designed to be used with this problem - solve print quality problems.
