OfficeJet 5740: Officejet printer will work without a computer?

83, my mother wanted a new Copier for her sewing room - there is a computer in that room. She went out a bought a HP all-in-one Officejet 5740. I said, "MOM, I think that this printer must be connected to the computer to operate."

Am I right in assuming this? I've never had to think about before because whenever I bought a printer to hang on to my computer.

Thus, this printer will not work as a standalone Copier? DRM for clarification.

Dolly

You're mother is more intelligent that you are, tell him that I said.

Copiers do not need to be attached to the PC to make the copies, and the printer she bought is also a copier.

  • printer will work if the color cartridges are ink

    I have an Officejet 4620. My computer says all the ink cartridges are out of ink. I can always print in black. I need to replace the color cartridges?   The printer uses individual cartridges for red, blue and yellow cartridges. Color will be printed in blue and yellow only, so I guess there is little color left.

    I usually do not need color copies and I have another Copier.

    Hello @Connsu,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I would like to help you today with your color cartridge application today. Because your printer uses four cartridges: HP 564 black, HP 564 Cyan, Magenta 564 HP and HP 564 yellow, if one or all of these color cartridges are exhausted replace them to continue using the printer. Your HP Officejets ink system is designed to print when have all ink cartridges. A little ink in each cartridge is used for maintenance and maintenance tasks completed by your printer to keep the print head system in your printer in good working order.

    The print head is the part that the cartridges will fit. It controls the "reading" of the cartridges and put the ink on the page. If the printhead is not able to perform regular maintenance, due to depleted cartridges, there is a chance that the mechanism of the print head gets dirty. If the printhead is damaged in any way a whole unit replacement may be necessary. For more information about using ink please click here.

    In the future, if you mainly print in black from the computer, you can set your printer driver to use black ink only. Normally when you print from your computer files will be sent to your printer as "images". If your printer "thinks" it prints an image file that ink color will be used to enrich the black ink. If you don't want that to happen, you can enable grayscale printing option.

    • How to set grayscale in Windows:
    1. Click on the Start menu
    2. Click on devices and printers
    3. Right click on your printer and select Printing Options
    4. Click on features or Advanced
    5. Select the Grayscale dropdown and replace Black Ink only
    6. Click apply and OK

    If you ever want to print in color that you just open the document to print, click Properties in the print dialog box and change black ink only on OFF. This setting only will change to print one job and will return to black ink only for future jobs.

    • How to set levels of gray on Mac:
    1. In the software application, click print

    5. In the color menu, select Grayscale or black & white
    6. Select the printing black only ink cartridge

  • C5280: c5280 printer will work with Windows 10

    Upgrades to windows 10 begin tomorrow. My C5280 printer still work?

    Hello Bob742,

    Yes! C5280 works and is supported on Windows 10.

    I checked and checked it appears the link Win10 of the driver for this device is missing: it is one thing, we are working to resolve.

    In the meantime, let me suggest that you download and install the Windows drivers 8.1: they have been tested and prove with the work on Windows 10.

    To get the Windows 8.1 drivers.

    1. Locate your device on the drivers hp.com/Support/Download.
    2. Take Option2: "go directly to the Software & Driver results."
    3. On the banner on your screen that says "Operating System", click on modify and replace Windows Version "Microsoft Windows 8.1'.»
    4. You should now see a download button, version, date, and name of the printer: click it and download and install the software for your device.
    5. Important: Unplug your appliance 1 before installing the software.
  • Has made a new installation, now Dell 962 printer will work not (Win7)

    So all of the facts are:

    I got a virus on my computer of who knows where. Whatever she is, she decided to remove part of my hard drive. So I had a few antivirus and anti-malware programs, and they did too good a job - I damaged my registry.

    If I had no other choice, but do a re-install. I didn't do a new installation; This is the option where all he moved to Windows.old. If the computer is good again, except that my printer is not working correctly.

    First, I tried the drivers from the Web site. I tried R151565, which should have done the job. This configuration is behaving oddly, however. It is scheduled to end after he installed the All in One Center, and it is supposed to leave me with a printer that works. This isn't.

    Then, since it was a re - install, I had to install updates. An update of the driver from dell was one of them. So I thought that this would solve things. The update was successful, but my printer is not installed.

    It never happened to me. The printer is not compatible, or it works. This feels like the printer is in limbo. So, I tried to think about what might be wrong. I looked in devices and printers, and there that caveat to sign on my printer. Then I looked in the devices, and I noticed this strange thing

    Hi KenLJ,

    Thanks for writing on the Dell Community Forum.

    We recommend doing a clean install of the operating system. Asking you to back up data from the Windows.old folder. Please use this link http://dell.to/1sU6QJ3 to restore your Windows 7 computer to factory settings. If this option does not work, then you can manually reinstall Windows 7 using this link http://dell.to/1mN6P6v. If you want the printer don't work, please uninstall the printer driver. Unplug the printer from the computer. Download the printer driver from this link http://dell.to/1IXOCus and install it. Connect the cable from the printer to the system only when the system prompts you to connect the cable. Continue with the installation, and it would print the test page once it is installed. There are two entries in the Device Manager, one for the scanner and the other is for the printer.

    Answer please if you have any other questions.

  • "dll is not available. Will work without him... »

    Dear MS whistles, gurus and other computer peeps: I got this message when I turned on my computer.  What it means and how to solve the problem.  Please, allow me to inform you that I'm not very good with computers.  Please answer in this regard.  Thank you.

    Have a friend or relative to take your computer to a local store, reputable & independent (i.e., not a BigBox not Geek Squad store or the friend who worked on the computer.). Ask them to format the hard disk and then perform a new installation of Windows.

    Better yet, buy a computer (low-end/cheapo) brand new.

  • SDHC 8 GB card will work when formatting computer

    Whenever I put it in the slot, the computer stops responding and I have to close everything and restart.
    It is the memory card I use for my camera. I put the same pictures on another memory for my digital photo frame card and which works very well. I don't understand, the same format of picture is on both cards, the only difference is that for the camera has some movies. Could this be the reason why. the manual just told me to look in my computer manual to advise.
    really would like some advice.

    You have another card reader or access to one (maybe a friend)?  I could test the card on another drive on another computer and see if it works or those causes or similar problems.  It sounds to me like the card is defective, the card contains files and programs that you do not cause this problem, or the card is damaged and works in the camera but may not work with a computer.  If you can transfer the data to another device or computer somehow long enough to format the card, and then move the data back, that might solve the problem (but again, you need another computer able to read this map and to temporarily move the data).

    The fact that the crack work with the other card means that the computer works fine and the unit works and pilots work.  For this reason, I don't think it's a computer problem (hardware and software).  See what you can do to view the map on another system.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

    One by the xerox phaser 7300 printer to become compatible with the captain.  Xerox shows no current drivers available?

    I think that the support dropped for Phaser 7300 Xerox about 10.6.8. If the generic postscript driver is not good enough for you consider trying the Gutenprint drivers:

    http://GIMP-print.sourceforge.NET/MacOSX.php

    I don't have access to a Phaser 7300 so I can't comment on the way in which these solutions work, but IME, Gutenprint drivers are usually pretty good.
