Cant remember password to print from my phone to deskjet 2540

I recently set up the HP Deskjet 2540 to print from my HTC phone. I need to sign into the wi fi connection specifically set up for the printer, rather than my usual connection, if I want to print directly from my phone downloads. Trouble is, my phone is asking for the password to get connected. I have no idea what it is. I printed out a network configuration page, which gave me a PIN but then what do I do? Just putting in the PIN does nothing.
Hope this makes sense to someone!

Hello lizrev,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I think you are looking for the Wireless Direct password for the Deskjet 2540. You should be able to access this password by printing an information page for Wireless Direct.
To do so, press and hold the Wireless Direct button for three seconds, once released, a page will print with the password.
Hope this helps,
JERENDS

    Check your password agian. If your friends password /account is working then it is your account information. Maybe you have the wrong username/email combo

  • Ipod disabled cant remember password.  how do i get it to start

    my i pod says disabled but i cant remember password, how do i reset my password or get ipod to work

    To get the iPod back up and running without the disabled passcode you would need to put it into Recovery Mode. This will require you to restore the iPod to factory settings which will remove the content from the iPod as well as the disabled passcode.
    To put your iPod into recovery mode:
    1. Make sure the iPod is connected to a computer with iTunes installed on it.
    2. Hold down the sleep/wake button(top button) and the home button at the same time until the iPod screen goes black then shows the apple logo( usually 10-15 seconds).
    3. Once the apple logo appears on the screen, let go of the sleep/wake button and keep holding the home button.
    4. A dialog box will appear in iTunes that states an iPod in recovery mode has been detected if you are successful.
    5. Click ok, then click the Restore button
    After that you should be up and running in no time!
    I hope that this is helpful.

    I too had this problem after I redeemed two $50 gift cards.  I solved the problem by uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling it.  Give it a try.

    how do i print from i phone?

    If you have one of the few airprint enabled printers then use airprint.
    iOS: AirPrint 101
    Otherwise, you would have to find an app that allows for this in the app store.
    Printopia is one.

  • Cant remember password, and ipod wont restore! what can i do?

    My daughter cant remember her password, and have tried restoring the ipod, but itunes wont do it, what else can i do?

    If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
    iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    iOS- Understanding passcodes
    A Complete Guide to Recover Your iDevice if You Forget Your Passcode
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
    Follow these steps to restore your device:
         1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
         2. Connect your device to your computer.
         3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
         4. Select the Summary tab.
         5. Select the Restore option.
         6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
             option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
             necessary to create another.
         7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
             you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
         8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
             logo while starting up:
               After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
              to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
              iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
              you see "iPhone is activated."
         9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup.
    If you can not restore your device then you will need to go to recovery mode.
    Placing your device into recovery mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
         1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end
             of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
         2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the
             red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
              If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake
              and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake
              and Home buttons.
         3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device.
             The device should turn on. Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device
             charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then
             start with step 2 again.
         4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
             When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
         5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
         6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

  • Print from mobile phone

    How can i print from my smart phone.  App already installed and computer is on

    Hi atubens,
    Depending on what mobile phone and what printer you have, the solution could differ.
    If you have an ePrint capable printer, universally you could email a print job to the printer's ePrint address.
    If you have the HP ePrint Home and Biz app, you can print photos, documents and from the web over the local wireless network from within the mobile app.

  • Can I use bluetooth wireless adapter on my C6180 to print from my phone?

    I would like to know it I can use a wireless bluetooth adapter on my HP Photosmart C6180 in order to print from my
    cell phone. I would like to plug it into the USB port on the back.  I don't have a smart phone but it will print via bluetooth.
    The printer is currently connected to my wireless router with a cat 5 cable.  This allows me to print from my laptop using
    the printer's IP address.  But what about bluetooth?
    Thanks

    HI,
    The usb port in the back will not allow you to print via bluetooth, for the simple fact that their are no (as far as i know) bluetooth dongle with the squere usb connection. The unit however does have a front usb port which might support a bluetooth stick. BEst way to find out is to plug a bluetooth dongle in there and see what happens. I can only tell you I did it like that on my own D6160 printer and for me it worked.

  • If I cant remember password, how do I find it out?

    My little sister changed my password on my ipod touch and SHE CANT REMEMBER~! is there a way i can find it on itunes or something?

    Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore the iPod via iTunes.  If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter it, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:

  • Print from i phone to airport extreme

    I cannot print from my iphone 4s or I pad to my printer via air port extreme.  I downloaded the air port extreme utility and bonjour, the printer works from my desktop PC but not from my i pad or i phone. 

    You will need an AirPrint compatible printer to be able to print from the iPhone or iPad. More info is here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
    If  your printer is not on the list of compatible devices, and you have a Mac, you might still be able to print by using Printopia. Might be worth a try.
