OfficeJet 5740: Y at - it a Fit - to - Page Scan Option?

When I scanned a form of Government that is located on a sheet of 8.5 "x 11", but has only a 1/4 "left, right, top of page margins and 1/8" margin on the bottom, the preview shows low 1.5"shape and the part of the text on the side cut margins.

I selected the option "Save as PDF."

I could not find a Fit-to-Page or by percentage of reduction options in scanning settings. I found "Letter (8.5 x 11) Portrait" and options "any scanning area.  I tried all of them with the same above result.  The option "Custom scan size" condition to select a width and a length, which would have been 8.5 and 11, the same that had been previously used, specific it so was not tested.

I need all the text on the worksheet to display.

Hey @Erislandy,

Thanks for getting back to me on this subject. I've experienced with the Officejets Printer Status Report that has no margin on the left side and 't' bars at the top and bottom of the page. The 't' bars are used for alignment. As a result, there are very little margin. In saying this, I'll make you confirm that the page is loaded correctly on the scanner glass.

Place the item with the print side face down on the scanner glass, and then place it according to the guides engraved around the glass. Close the scanner cover.

If you have been loading the page correctly on the glass of the scanner nothing helps, I highly recommend at this time that you contact our Technical Support telephone queue for this problem. Through our hotline, you will be able to do a session remotely with the agent who, with your permission, would allow the agent to go through the process of scanning with you and find out what is happening on your computer. It will be much easier for testing and troubleshooting for this specific problem.

HP Technical Support can be reached at the: 800-474-6836.

  • Pavilion pb-2100 desktop pc: fit to page printing

    Can not find the 'fit to page printing' option for the automatic update of the printer.  Prints the little pdf with large white frame area.  Maybe caused by the upgrade of Windows 10?  E-all-in-one printer Officejet Pro 8600.  A different print window returns to 'Tip' instead of my normal print window.

    Right-click on the pdf file & a menu opens, select Open with and select IE.

    Thank you!  You solved my problem!  I forgot the option 'open with '.  Windows 10 removed my IE and put edge in his place, saying that edge is the new IE, or something to that effect.  I have rarely used IE in any case, prefer Firefox, but some websites need IE to work right.

    To sum it all, your instructions to go 'open with' allow me to select 'PDF Vista', which is the program that I have always before when opening a PDF file.  I am so grateful to be able to print things.  This edge print page was pretty lame, useless for me.

  • 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.

  • 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: 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: Windows 7 Officejet 5740 prints multiple copies of Excel (2000)

    Nine Officejet 5740 e-all-in-one printer connected to the Acer PC under Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) SP1. Printer driver 17.59.00.6180

    Will not print multiple copies of a small document (2000) Excel (128kb)

    Print large files PDF and Word and several copies, but not from Excel (2000)

    It will be wound up to two (maybe three copies) but displays only the first and then fails with the Excel error message "your file could not be printed due to an error on HP Officejet 5740 Series (network) on Ne01...". »

    Followed by the HP error message «Unable to communicate with the printer...» »

    I think it must have something to do with the way Excel print multiple copies queued several unique copies that print spooler one by one. It feels as if the spooler is being overwhelmed by the simple copies repeated being pulled on her by the Excel print routine.

    Any advice appreciated
