Desk jet 2540 not printing from iPad

Hi , I've just bought a Desk jet 2540. It was printing from my iPad with no problems this morning but now does not. The iPad can see the printer and the printer is displaying a solid blue light on the wireless button. After printing a test page I can see that the printer is connected to my wifi with and 'excellent' signal quality. Can you help me please?
Kind regards,
Lee

Hello @Lom111,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums! I understand you are not able to print from your iPad to your HP Deskjet 2540. Your printer is still on the wireless network, but when you attempt to print nothing happens.
I would like you to start troubleshooting here: Printing Over a Wireless Network with Apple's AirPrint FAQs, once on the page please select the 'No AirPrint Printers Found' section.
Let me know the outcome, I look forward to hearing from you.

HP Premium "air printer" is not printing from iPad, but iPhone printing is fine

Greetings
I have the problem that no printouts are showing at my HP premium if printed from iPad. The iPad can see the printer, box is saying that the print is getting prepared and then sent to the printer, but it never arrives. Printerque stays empty. Printing from my MacBook via Wi-Fi is working fine as well as printing from my iPhone.
iPad 2 with iOS7, iPhone5 IoS 7, HP premium photosmart C410, MacBook Pro with Mavericks, New Air Timecapsule a/c and n wireless.
Things I tried without success:
- Use printer wired (to Timecapsule) as well as wireless
- Reset Printer to Manufacturer default
- Turn off iPad, turn off Printer, Turn off Air Timecapsule

Did you change the wifi setting on your iPad to match the printer?

How can I connect my iPad 6 to HP desk jet 3050 a wireless?

Unfortunately this printer doesn't support AirPrint, so you can't print using the official Apple method.
However, you could try an app like PrintCentral, but there's no guarantees this will work.

Grocery IQ not printing from ipad.

The Grocery IQ app is not printing coupons from my ipad. It works fine from my iphone but it shuts down right before printing from the ipad. It shows the coupons as limit reached but nothing ever prints. I'm using the same hp wireless printer that I use for the iphone. Any thoughts on what the issue could be?

Desk Jet 810C Not Printing Magenta

I need some troubleshooting help.
Months ago, my black ink cartridge started to empty and the printer started using reds or blues. I replaced the black cartridge with a refurbished one from Office Max. All worked fine.
The color cartridge started to empty a few months later, so I again went to Office Max and obtained a rebuilt color cartridge. I rarely print in color, but at times, after scanning a document on my HP scanner, when it printed it was in blue and red again. This was when I hit the "scan and print" button on my scanner. If I saved the scan as a PDF, it would print fine in B/W.
Now, the printer will only print black, yellow and green. The red/magenta will not print at all.
I did a head cleaning. I also did a "prime" maintenance function, with the same results. I even unplugged the printer, removed the cartridge, reinstalled it, and there was no change (this was the advice from someone on fixya).
Any ideas from anyone, other than trying a new cartridge?
Thank,
Mike

The quality of reman cartridges varies greatly (see here for a study). You will likely have much better results using HP cartridges.
It may be possible to recover your cartridge by soaking the printhead nozzles down in 1" of very hot water for about 10 minutes.

Connecting iPad to desk jet 2540 printer

How can I connect my new hp desk jet 2540 printer to my iPad as the web page dose not work and there dose not seem to be any other way as an iPad dose not have a cd rom.

Hi,
If your router support WPS (Wireless Protected Setup), you may connect it to your network using this method, you may find the steps below:
Method one: Push buttonFollow these instructions to connect using the Push button method on your printer control panel.
On the printer control panel, press and hold the Wireless button ( ) for more than three seconds. The Wireless Status light starts blinking.
Press the WPS button on your router. The printer begins a timer for approximately two minutes while a wireless connection is established.
Method two: PINFollow these instructions to connect using the PIN method on your printer control panel.
On the printer's control panel, press the Wireless button ( ) and the Start Copy Black button ( ) at the same time. The Network Configuration page prints.
Find the WPS PIN printed at the top of the page.
On the printer control panel, press and hold the Wireless button ( ) for more than three seconds. The Wireless Status light starts blinking.
Open the configuration utility or software for the wireless router or wireless access point, and then enter the WPS PIN.
NOTE: For more information about using the configuration utility, see the documentation provided with the router or wireless access point.
Wait about 2 minutes. If the printer connects successfully, the wireless light stops blinking but remains lit.
If your router does not support WPS, a computer is required for its network configuration. use any Windows PC or a Mac to connect it for the first time by following these steps:

2540 printing problem, missing lines when printing from iPad

Bought a new 2540 to use with iPad, printing direct from wireless direct to printer and missing lines, tried copying and everything is working/printing ok. It just appears to be when printing from iPad. I have tried powering down printer and rebooting but still the same.
Any help appreciated.

Hey , Welcome to the HP Support Forum. I see that you're having what sounds like AirPrint quality issues with your HP Deskjet 2540 All-in-One Printer. I would like to assist. Your 2540 is AirPrint compatible, but not all app content and file formats are AirPrint friendly. I recommend installing the HP ePrint app. (I'm assuming you don't have WiFi if you're a wireless direct user. If that's the case try and visit a public space with WiFi and install the app there. Once installed you can use it within a wireless direct setup). Let me know if this helps. Thanks for reaching out and have a great day!

Photosmart e5520 not printing from PC or via ePrint, but OK from iPad. Why?!

Hi
I am having a problem with my brand new HP photosmart 5520 e-all-in-one.
Connected to my home wireless router fine, got network ID test page etc on initial setup, but when software installed on laptop PC, stopped printing.
Will air-print from iPad without problems, and shows up on printer control panel as default printer, but will not print.
Laptop is Vaio using Vista, network is via Netgear G+ MIMO, McAfee security on laptop (no difference if on or off).
The printer says it is connected to the router, but web services are not reachable. Also, the IP address of the printer does not open the internal web page on entering it into IE or Firefox.
The printer's IP address is fixed, but does not appear in McAfee network when interrogated. The printer is not asleep. I cannot "find" the printer or install it on the computer's network or printer control panels, and the wireless device finder will not find it either.
Any help?
I bought this because of favourable reviews and reported ease of set-up, but it is driving me crackers!!!

Office jet 6100 series not printing from Mac OS X 10.9.3

office jet 6100 series not printing from Mac OS X 10.9.3. This seems to have happened suddenly. USB hardwired to a new Macbook Pro. HP Inkjet 6 Driver 2.0.3 Any ideas?
This question was solved.

I would recommend resetting the printing system, then rebooting the mac to allow it to scan for the usb connection to the printer. It should then automatically add the printer back, and if any other updates are needed, it'll ask you to install htem

Printing not working from iPad

Hi,
I bought this printer for my mother so she could print email, photos, etc... but while the printer was setup very quickly and the printer is being picked up by the iPad, printing is just not working, well mostly not working.
When in email client app, I select an email, and try to print it. I select the printer from the list and select print. A small dialog box appears saying 'Please wait, printing' (or something like this!), it dissapears and nothing gets printed.
When I select a photo, the same applies as the email client app.
I installed an HP app from the IOS stored and unfortunately, I could not use the "Document" function when taking a picture as it requires a 5M pixel camera and the iPad is an 2nd, maybe third generation, so I used the "Photo" option within that app and strangely enough it managed to print a document. Terrible waste of ink just for one "legal" document as instead of being treated as a document, it was treated as a coloured image and was way too detailed in regards to color but that's beside the point. The point is printing worked directly via the HP app but it won't work from the standard email client app or the photo app.
I don't know if it could have anything to do with it but the iPad has very little space left on it i.e. 470Mb out of 16Gb.
IOS is still V7 as I don't have enough room to upgrade to 8 which I know displays a "print queue" now as I've noticed on my own Ipad.
Any ideas why it's not printing from the standard apps and why it would work from the HP app?
Thanks.
Thierry

Hi @ThierryF
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I understand that you are having issues with the AirPrint feature of the iPad and it is not allowing you to print to the Envy 5640 printer.
I’ve included the document Apple AirPrint: The Apple Mobile Device Shows the Job is Printing but the Printer Does Not Print. It has some steps to try and determine why the iPad and printer aren’t playing nice together.
You can also use the Printing Over a Wireless Network with Apple's AirPrint FAQs document as it has steps the first document doesn’t have.
Please let me know the outcome.
