OfficeJet Pro 8740: Impossible to activate the web services

I can't activate my new printer (Officejet 8740) web services.  I looked through several web pages without success.  It doesn't seem to be an option on the Billboard related to web services.  ePrint, Apps, etc., are all disabled. There are no visible icons.  What to do next?

Hey @Ricktm56,

Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

I understand that you have some problems with the activation of Web Services on your Officejet 8740 e-all-in-one printer. I can help you with that.

To start, we need to change the setting of the printer from Commercial to consumer settings. To do this, I'll send you some directions in a private message. If you check your Inbox forum you should see a message private to me shortly.

After resetting, please let me know if you still have problems with the activation of web services after doing the above. If you are able to install web services, please click on accept solution. If you appreciate my help, please click on the thumbs up icon. The two icons are below this post.

  • OfficeJet 6500 a Plus: impossible to activate the Web services; roadblocks at all stages

    This printer is connected to my network by Ethernet. I want to activate Web services, so I can use ePrint.

    When I try to enable Web services from the printer control panel, I said that I might need to enter a proxy address. I'm not running a proxy server, but it is not possible around this prompt.

    There are posts on this Board indicating that Web services can be activated with a Wi - Fi connection. I unplugged the Ethernet cable and wireless enabled, but I was always invited address proxy information when I tried to activate the Web services. I disabled wireless and returned to Ethernet.

    A response to another post suggested updating the firmware to bypass the proxy server error. HP recommendation is to do it from the control panel of the printer. In the Panel menu control, firmware upgrade is the title of the Web services, which I can't because of the mistake of the proxy. So I downloaded the firmware and tried to install the update from my computer. The update found my printer on the network, but it is gray, saying 'Not applicable', under the State. I couldn't select it.

    In another post, someone suggested THAT DNS has been configured. I saw, through Server Web shipped by the printer, there is no configured DNS server (the printer is configured for manual IPv4). So via the integrated Web server, I tried to enter addresses (my domain controller, OpenDNS, Google) DNS server. With each of them, the SAP replied: "an error has occurred. (ipv4Page-400). Click 'OK' to go back. "There is no place to enter the DNS settings on the printer control panel.

    Web services require a Wi - Fi connection?

    Why the printer think there need a proxy address?

    The firmware update will solve the proxy error?

    I have to update the firmware, if the update statement indicates does not apply?

    What is another method for updating the firmware out of the control panel or from my computer?

    How to enter the DNS of the EWS information without getting an error?

    Charles:

    Thank you for taking the time to provide a complete response to my questions.

    I finally got the Web services enabled on the printer. What I had to do was enter the DNS settings in SAP to bypass the prompt for proxy information. Step I missed yesterday, when I got page not found error in the SAP, was that I had to do the secure version of the SAP ("https", not "http"), and then the EWS would accept my DNS entries. Once this is done, I went to the printer and could enable Web services without having to provide proxy information.

    The printer is now registered to hpconnect.com, and I can start letting my library to print patterns on my wireless network, that was my goal all along.

    Thanks again for your help.

  • OfficeJet 7310 all-in-One: activate the Web Services and printing of Tablet

    I can't find a way to enable Web Services on my 7310 all-in-One.  It is connected by wire to my internet router, and I use the built-in print server.  ePrint online information, says this printer is supported.  When I go into the ePrintCenter registration page, or when I go into the app on my Android tablet, it won't give me an option to manually enter the printer and can't find the printer on my home network.  All this suggests that I should update the firmware of the print server, but I can't find a way to do it.  Any help would be welcome.

    Ok. I found my own solution, but the documentation is really bad.

    The answer is: If you select document, it gives you the choice of the printer on the wireless network, even when not compatible eprint. But who knows? I would have thought to implement a printer first.

  • How can I activate the web service on 8600

    How can I activate the web service on 8600

    How can I activate the web service on hp 8600

  • OfficeJet Pro 8610: impossible to activate web service HP8610

    When I first set up my printer, I was able to use the Web Services, but one day, when the printer was old, 9 months after that put under tension/disable web services from my router stopped working!

    I could go to print and scan wireless, but web services is more work, so my stautus instant ink is more updated. After getting a dozen emails from Instnt of ink over the 3 months, they finally disabled my printer from printing (no doubt he reactivates if I bought all new ink cartridges for more than $100 all, although I don't trust HP enough to pay as much in case they do not work).

    I tried following various instructions in this help forum to reset the ipv4 address, but nothing helped. The printer is a little more than 12 months. My ISP is AT & T who were no help (of course). When I phoned HP while I was in warranty period, HP engineer said it was an ISP problem and nothing was wrong with the printer.

    I even tried to connect the printer to my Iphone hotspot, but which allowed either the web connection.

    Suggestions anyone?

    Hi @mallen14

    Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support. One thing I noticed on these printers, make sue that the date and time of the printer is correct.

    Also, have you tried the suggestions in this post by E - roq?

    I found that setting a manual DNS is more effective in these situations, then playing with the IPv4 address.

  • OfficeJet 8600 more: impossible to activate the Scan

    Use OS x 10.10 and printing/scanning using wifi, all of a sudden the scan button went from my printer on my macbook pro. It worked fine until a few days ago. I tried to delete the printer drivers and reinstall. I chose the name of the printer and printing not slected to air. I checked all of the updates and also updated the firmware to the printer. The scan button is missing and the option "enable scan" is crossed out in red. If I connect the printer cable printer a new printer icon becomes available in the primnter options and it can analyze. Any help would be appreciated.

    Attempt to activate the scan of the computer again.

    Try to print and scan the image.

    If you do not always have the option, do a uninstall complete and reinstall the software.

    Turn it back on.
    Empty the trash.

    If you're still having problems, it could have been an automatic update on the router and port scan isn't currently open.

    You can contact the router company to verify and to open these ports 9220/9500/427 on the router.

    Please let me know the results.

    Have a wonderful day!
    Thank you.

  • Satellite Pro P300 - impossible to activate the built-in microphone

    I bought a Satellite Pro P300 some 2 months and so far so good.

    It has a webcam which I really thought that I would have any use for it but now find that I have.

    The camera works fine but I cannot activate the built-in microphone.

    Can someone point me in the right direction please

    Hello

    You will need to start the webcam software if you want to use the internal microphone too.
    The point is that the internal MIC is connected with the internal webcam and webcam software handles both devices.
    Also check if the internal mic has been correctly enabled in the webcamsoftware

    In addition, I would recommend updating the audio driver.

    Best regards

I bought it only so that I can print from my ipad, the retailer does not know how to put in place, help please if you can

    There is another option to put in a custom DNS server. The integrated Web server for this model may be slightly different, but the following steps apply for all HP printers.

    What you want to do is to collect the IP address of the printer, you can do this by pressing the icon on the screen wireless and you will have to go to display settings after. Take this ip address and put it in the address bar of your web browser as a Web page. From there, go to the tab network along the top of this page, then you should have an option of ipv4 on the left side under wireless (or wired) If you are using ethernet. Here, you can set a manual IP address and a DNS Server Manual. Configure the DNS server to manual and put as a main 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as secondary.

    These measures will have the printer through the servers DNS googles, which does not seem to solve this problem, most of the time. The main cause is that your ISP DNS servers may not have servers of web services in their system, so when it goes to connect it times out and gives you the message from proxy.

  • Office Jet Pro 8600 can not connect the Web Service server.

    Apparently, I need to enter a proxy address. Where can I find details of proxy? I use Windows 7 and I just installed the printer successfully (wireless)

    Thanks in advance!

    KatiaZon,

    We are pursuing.

    Next would be to put a static IP address on the printer.

    To have the information needed to set the static IP address on the printer, press the right arrow on the front panel of the printer > installation > reports > network configuration.

    B. open internet explore and type the IP address of the printer in the address bar, then press on enter.

    The printer's built-in web server should pull up.

    C. click on the network tab upward.
    On the left side, click IPv4 on your connection type, wired or wireless.

    D. change the IP from automatic to manual.
    Enter the same IP address, the default gateway and the subnet mask.
    Enter for the primary dns 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 secondary, then click on apply.

    E. after is the button clicked apply to apply the static IP settings, enable Web Services.

    Hello

    This device is a good old classic. As far as I know that it s about 10 years.
    It was delivered with the Win95 and Win98.
    Well, I can't give you a solution to your problem because this unit is too old.
    You'll be a man of luck even if someone here in the forum knows an answer to your problem. All I can suggest is to check the BIOS. Maybe that here you can activate or change it in addition the battery settings.

    Good luck
