Scanning from 2540 Deskjet for Windows 'paint '. Why this simple operation became difficult

I'm a grumpy old angry try hard to follow. Mice live in fields or houses, driver driving cars or tractors on the fields where the mice live? I do not understand the language you are using My URL sounds like the specimen that I give to the doctor. My IP of sounds as a result of its tests.

I used to have a deskjet I think it was a 31840. I might scan something and he asked me where I wanted to scan go.

This new 2540 thing don't ask, and I can't seem to understand I want the scan go to Windows 'paint '. I've never had this problem before it was so easy. If they employ someone to do simple tasks more difficult so that they can create a more stupid formulation? If it is not broken by the love of God don't fix.

Hi Igivein,

Welcome to the HP forums!

I must say, I certainly agree with you! The language that has been developed to refer to the technology has become a bit much, so I certainly understand where you are coming, and I'll try to keep my instructions in a straight line forward as I can

The scan for the Deskjet 2540 software has the ability to analysis of a file, then open it in paint for you, but you can open any file of photo that sweep you the paint. If you were to scan an image as a JPEG (an image file) and save it, you can then open Paint, go to open and then open the image that you scanned only, to modify it or do whatever you want with it.

You can also use the Paint program to scan the image into the computer. If you open Paint, click on file (or the small Menu button, depending on the version you have - I've included a screen shot below that my description of this button leaves something to be desired ) then from scanner or camera and follow along to use Paint to scan the photo instead of the HP software.

I hope this helps, please let me know how things are going for you!

  • Problems scanning w/HP Deskjet F4140 Windows 7

    Hello everyone.  In early November, I have switched my operating system to Windows 7 since Vista.  After the switch, I downloaded the driver for the HP Deskjet F4140 for Windows 7 32-bit operating system.  Now, when I scan documents, the resulting image is often just a small fraction of the document I'm scanning.  I will analyze the same image several times without adjusting in the scanner, and the resulting image will be different every time.  The scanner has worked with Vista, the latter always analyzed the entire picture that I wanted to, and now it is essentially unusable because the images it produces are worthless.  I really liked having a scanner, and if someone could help me on how to correct this problem, I would greatly appreciate.  I tried to uninstall the driver, it redownloading and put it back, still 2 other times now, and still, I need to solve my problem.  Thank you for your time and effort. -JSR

    Hello again.  I wanted to just as everyone else I have solved my problem.  You can scan images through the Paint program, and in this way to make product image, just like before.  I found this out on

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01884960: 10 & lc = en & dlc = & cc = us & lang = & product = 3235310

    which is a HP support page, I'm so happy that they had provided such information.  I don't know if anyone else has had this problem, but if so, I hope that my solution will work for you as well. -JSR

  • can not scan from printer to computer Windows 8.1

    Hi @skinz

    Thank you for letting me know what HP printer you have.  I'll guess that you receive an error message about a connection error when scanning.

    I've included the document a "Computer no. has detected" or "connection error" message when scanning for HP Officejet 6600 e-all-in-one and 6700 Premium e-All-in-One Printer Series (H711) .  Please click on your operating system and follow the troubleshooting steps.

    Please let me know the results.

  • Search for Windows 7, why not if give me the files that are not yet in my augument search?

    Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit OS.

    Have a lot of files are duplicated.

    In Windows 7 lets say the files in the folder have files that look like:

    Bill 120.le rar
    Bill 121, rar
    Bill 1 .rar

    and we want to remove duplicates with '(1) '.
    and we enter research * (*)

    Under XP it would only list the file: Bill 1 .rar IF you entered *(*.)  or *) * or (1), etc.

    Bill 1 .rar

    In Windows 7, since I started to use Win 7 years, everything I do is get frustrited when it will sometimes give me what I ask for the Bill 1 .rar.
    but most of the time like now, will give me ALL the files WITH and WITHOUT the "()".

    Bill 120.le rar
    Bill 121, rar
    Bill 1 .rar

    WHY?  and how can he give me what I asked?

    (I tried ALL the settings and they all do the same thing)

    Enter in the search box:

    name: ~ = "{}"

    The ~ = indicates to Windows 7 search to look anywhere in the name.  Usually, the quotes would not be needed, but( ) has a functional use of search for Windows 7, and the quotes tell Windows 7 search just deal with ( ) as a chararacter.  I tried to find a way to search for a (?), after? as a wildcard but couldn't.  [Update: solution concludes, at the end of the post]  However, you can enter this to search for files named with the two ( and ), but not necessarily appearing in the (#) form.

    nom : ~ = "(" nom : ~ = "")" »

    or more compactly,

    nom : (~ = "(" ~ = "")" »)

    Update: more than a month later, I realized the more compactly.  Subsequently, the? is interpreted as a wildcard character.  If more digits is possible, then additional search with? exactly two for? for exactly three and so on.

    Name: ~ "* (?) *"

    If filename: is used instead, then the tilde is redundant:

    filename: "* (?)" *"

  • For windows user manual this

    I have a netbook Windows 7 "this model PC703 that was returned to me without the manual. Where can I download / find a usermanual?

    Hi janenemannerheim,

    The short answer is that we need more information about the computer (manufacturer, brand, full model number) and on Windows CE (the exact version used, etc.). I am not sure that even in this case, we will be able to really find what you're looking (sometimes they are available and sometimes they simply aren't), but at the moment we have no real hope that there are too many different choices out there that may or may not be applicable. I'm not so sure that if you want a manual for the computer or the operating system (or both).

    There are many different types of computers PC703. For example, here's where to find manuals for Allfine PC703: http://www.rapidmaniac.com/search/relevant/All/allfine-pc703-manual. If you can be more specific, maybe I can find the specific manual for your computer.

    There are also many versions of Windows this - and you did not say if she was 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, or whatever it might be. Without that, providing information is difficult. Here is for example a manual for Windows CE 6.0: http://www.edocr.com/doc/633/windows-ce-6-0-user-manual (which I do not know if it applies and don't know if that's what you're looking for).

    I hope that I have provided helps - but as it was a wild guess, it is not likely to match what you have and at best to be marginally useful. If you want more help, we need more information.

    Good luck!

  • 2540 deskjet Wireless: scan to PDF from 2540 deskjet wireless

    with this tool, I could connect to a deskjet 2540 in a wireless network and make a pdf of several pages of analysis.

  • Attach the Comet from T-mobile for Windows XP

    I am trying to attach my smartphone from T-mobile Comet which had no problems with vista or 7 when attaching to Windows XP. I followed the guide under the help of google guide by downloading the tetherxp.inf file, and then the remains of the guide as follows. He said that he didn't find any installs that was supposed to make to update when he got to this point then I watched how to make so that it can read. A comment said to modify the [AndroidDevices.NT.5.1] section of the tetherxp.inf file, just add a copy of one of the existing lines, but replace ID with the ID given in the properties of the device that is supposed to look like USB\VID_XXXX & PID_XXXX. I followed what they said, and it seemed he was working but warned that he was not under the windows logo and if I wanted to continue and I clicked Yes. Later he then finished indicating: cannot start this hardware. This device cannot start (Code 10). I don't know what to do to get it to work or read so I could tie my laptop to my desktop Windows XP OS. I use my phone to friends in the meantime using my cell to connect via wi - fi.
