Hi I have an hp printer desk jet 2540 series

I have a hp printer wireless 2540 series and I want to no how I can print from my iPad while on the Internet, as it seems I can only front if my iPad is not connected to the Internet?

If you have a Wifi network, the printer has to be connected to the network instead of using Wireless Direct connection.

  • 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.

    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.

  • 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.

  • Scanning feature on desk jet 2540 does not work with drivers 990c

    Hello, 
    I reset my computer a few weeks ago ( acer with vista home edition)  . and after i did that my printer driver software stopped working, when i tried to reinstall it. so i have to install with the 990c printer drivers. It prints perfectly BUT the scanner is not recognized at all. 
    the original printer software is not installed on my computer because when its installed the drivers for 990c does not work. once i remove the original HP. Desk Jet Software and install the drivers it works perfectly. 
    Can someone please tell me of a work around to get the scanner portion to work properly 

    Hi @Chayda ,
    I see that you are having issues trying to scan with the Deskjet 990c drivers. When the full software for the printer is installed, the Deskjet 990c driver won't work. I will certainly do my best to help you.
    The Deskjet 990c drivers are preinstall print drivers only. To be able to print and scan, you would have to install the Full Feature Software and Drivers for the Deskjet 2540.
    Here is the URL to download, save and then ran the latest drivers.
    HP Deskjet 2540 All-in-One Printer Drivers.
    Select your operating system, click next and click on the software to download and install.
    You should be able to have more then the one driver installed for the printer and still be able to print with either one.
    To use an alternate print driver for HP printers in Windows Vista:
    1. Click on the Start menu.
    2. Click on Printers.
    3. Click on Add Printer.
    4. Select HP from the first list.
    5. Select Deskjet 990c from the second list or use the Deskjet 450 driver.
    6. Click Next.
    7. Click Finish.
    8. Click Apply.
    9. Click OK to close the window.
    Then you should have the two drivers listed again in the Printers folder.
    You can set the Deskjet 990c or the Deskjet 450 driver as the default printer for printing, when you want to scan select the Deskjet 2540.
    Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor if you are still having issues using the alternative driver. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a wonderful day!
    Thank You.

  • Help! Can I set up desk jet 2540 on iPad

    Hi can anyone tell me if I can set my deskjet all in one 2540 up on my iPad mini? I don't have a disc drive to put the setup cd into and the installation website it gives you in the box just comes up with an error, I think maybe because I can't set it up from my iPad?

    Hi Bellesy,
    There are several ways of printing from your iPad. We just have to make sure that the printer and the iPad are connected to the same network.

  • I have a hp desk jet j610a ,i'm trying to use eprint to print too my apple ipad ?

    Need assistance printing from my iPad too my hp desk jet printer model # j610a

    Unfortunately the j610a does not have ePrint or AirPrint capabilities. You will be unable to print to this printer from your iPad for the time being. We are coming out with an app called HP ePrint Home and Biz soon that will allow you to print from your iPad in a limited capacity but if you want the full functionality of AirPrint you would need an ePrint enabled printer.

  • I cannot detect my wireless hp desk jet 3520 printer, I cannot detect my wireless hp desk jet 3520 printer

    I cannot detect my wireless HP desk jet 3520 printer from my iPad? 

    I can't find an Arris router with that model number, are you sure it is not a TG862?
    Regardless, Arris routers are known to either be incompatible with Bonjour or have problems with Bonjour packets hence Airprint will not work. Check with Arris' website and see if there is a firmware update availble for your router for Bonjour/Airprint compatibility and install it or switch out your router.

  • Newly Installed HP desk jet 2510 all in one printer will not print web pages

    Hello;
    I have just now installed my new 2510 desk jet printer and installed all software.
    It prints saved docs fins, but when I try and print web docs from the "print view " screen, it does not print. I have tried this a few times now.
    Any suggestions?
    Bill L

    Hello  landsabil ,
    Please check if the printer HP deskjet 2510 is selected when you click on FILE > Print  on a webpage .
    If it does not work, then try to print using a different Browser.

  • Need a part for a Desk Jet 550C, dont know what it is, but i have a picture

    im trying to find a replacement part for my old Desk Jet 550C
    i think its called a cap, and prevents the cartridge from drying out. 
    *sigh*
    wont let me insert the image for whatever reason so ill post the direct link
    http://i.imgur.com/1OmU0RM.jpg
    there are reccessed spaces for 1 rectangular cap on the left (for the black cartridge) and 1 square cap on the right (for the color cartridge)
    they are made out of some kind of a rubbery material. i have the cap for the color cartridge, but it is removed currently as i have just washed all the old ink out of it and its still drying.
    Edit: more pics, more info
    took me about 2 or 3 minutes to safely and carefully get the printer taken apart, at which point i found the missing 'cap'
    here is a picture of them both, but the left cap is brittle, and still needs to be replaced if at all possible. (left cap is for the black ink cartridge, right cap is for the color cartridge; both cartridges rest atop these caps to seal the cartridges whenever they are not actively printing on a page)
    http://i.imgur.com/U3DCml7.jpg
    found a few things also in there that raised a few questions
    1: what is this? its is by the back right leg of the printer, on the bottom
    http://imgur.com/X1HdUe1
    2: what are these? are the switches still in the right posistion?

    Hi warper10,
    I understand that you are looking for parts for your Deskjet 550C. Unfortunately, there are no parts for this printer except ink cartridges, unless you can find someone with this printer.
    I can supply this link for the HP DeskJet 550C User's Guide.

  • I have a Desk Jet 3050. How can I get it back online?

    The product is HP Desk Jet 3050 , I operate on Windows 7. Printer is saying not connected to wireless. My local cable company had internet issues and the printer worked fine before. Everything BUT the wireless printer worked normal after the issue was repaired by cable company. I have tried the HP scan doctor download. It comes back as saying the printer has no power. Which it clearly does. I have powered everything off then repowered. Nothing happened. The test report states Network Name::FAIL. I do not know how to fix this problem. Any suggestion will be helpful!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    On the front of the printer, go to the Wireless menu and Restore Defaults.
    Go to Start > Control Panel > Devices and printers and delete all instances of the printer.
    Now, go to Start > All Programs > HP > [your printer model] > Printer Setup and Software.
