Hp deskjet 2540, Samsung galaxy tab 3 printing

'Use the printer wirelessly without a router' page and 'hp all in one remote, print quality report' both printed very clearly and seemed promising. 
I have since printed a document with two different apps
Polaris office 4 printed it boldly but with poor detail both as .doc and .pdf
HP ePrint printed with fine quality but very faint given the document was written with a bold font when printed as a.doc, and as a .pdf, printed boldly but with the same poor quality as polaris. Furthermore, since printing a pdf with ePrint I can only print a pdf and not a doc even though I have  un installed and reinstalled the app.
How is it possible for two prints of the same document to be so different?
Is it possible to alter the settings of the printer?
Is there an app compatible between Samsung and hp that works better than the ones mentioned above?
Please consider the fact I do not have a router or home Internet.

Hi Sujo,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums.  I gather that you are unable to print web pages from your Android Galaxy Tab 3 tablet because you are using the printer’s wireless direct feature which does not have internet connectivity. 
Let’s get the printer connected to your home wireless network.  If you have a computer running a Window or Mac operating system it’s fairly easy to connect the printer.  Please follow the steps in the Installing the Printer Software for a Wireless Network Connection document for the operating system that is running on your computer.
If you only have your tablet available, please follow the steps in the post by @Jon-W titled “How can I setup a Deskjet 3050a/J611 to my Chromebox?”.  Please start where he says “There is another alternative but it can be hit or miss”. 
Once you have the printer connected to your wireless network you should be able to print web pages as both devices will now be connected to your wireless network.  Please let me know how it goes.

  • HP Deskjet 2540 and Galaxy Tab 3 - cannot print wirelessly

    Hello
    I would be very grateful for help with the following issue.
    I have an HP Deskjet 2540 and a Galaxy Tab 3 (Android) and wish to print wirelessly from the tablet.
    I have installed the ePrint app and the ePrint All-in One Remote app on the tablet.
    In order to print I have to change the tablet's wifi connection from my home wifi to the printer's wifi which means that I cannot print straight from the internet.
    I have tried saving web pages and then printing i.e not using the home wifi but a message appears on the tablet saying " Connect to Samsung printer".
    My question is therefore, how do you print when you can only have one wireless connection on the tablet at a time i.e either the home wifi or the printer? Every time I want to print, do I have to change the wifi connection on my tablet from my home wifi to the printer's?
    Many thanks in advance!

  • I have a Samsung galaxy tab 2 and I have a Epson artisan 835 printer model C431A How can I pnint ?

    I need to know if there's any way to connect a Samsung galaxy tab 2 to a Epson artisan 835 printer model C431A, I only have the tablet and printer, NO desktop. Is there an application for this? TY

    banhien, just to be clear in my mind about your response, to use the HP ePrint that came installed on my new HP computer, does the printer have to be an HP printer? Or, can it be oh, say, an Epson Artisan 835? Just curious. Thank you kindly in advance.

  • Printing from samsung galaxy tab 3

    Hi I have a samsung galaxy tab 3 and was wondering how do I print from it as I have a HP photosmart C4680 printer, can this printer be used?

    Hi,
    This topic is covered by another thread here, which indicates that the printer is not e-Print enabled so you won't be able to print to from your Galaxy Tab.
    You'll find a list of e-print enabled printers here.

  • Digital editions does not recognise Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7

    Digital editions does not recognise my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7. The device is authorised. Please help. Thanks

    Your last post is confusing - and the technology is unforgiving.  So let me
    see if I can piece this together....
    Starting with the Tab 7.7: some manufacturers have devices that they
    improve upon and claim compatibility because they're 'just like' XUY that
    they made last year.  Sometimes this is true, but often, the user ends up
    with claims and not much function.  Samsung is pretty good about this, but
    you can't assume that, just because you can connect the Tab to your
    computer and move stuff back and forth, that the programs on your computer
    are going to work with your Tab - and vice versa.
    The OS on the tablet is NOT compatible with ADE, so you can't drag and drop
    ebooks as you would with other ereaders.  You have to use utility programs
    to move the ebook to your Tab.  Once you move the ebook to the tablet,
    Aldiko should be the program that you use to read the ebook.  In your
    situation, all ADE is doing is retrieving the ebook from the source, and
    storing it on your computer.
    You mention "software/apps that are available for DRM".  DRM is the copy
    protection on an ebook.  It's a software switch built into the ebook's ID
    file and all that it does is to tell you whether or not you can copy or
    print the ebook.  ADE and Aldiko look at the switch when you open or try to
    copy the ebook.  And if the DRM settings are preventing Aldiko from opening
    the ebook, you're stuck.  Those settings come from the publisher,
    distributor or author, not from either ADE or Aldiko.  You can try to open
    the ebook on your computer with ADE and see if you get the same results.
    You mention error messages.  I think, from the context, you're getting them
    on the Tab when you try to do something with the ebook.  Any messages
    relating to time relate to the settings for your time, date and time zone.
    I'm guessing here, but I think your Tab's settings aren't the same as your
    computer's, and that's why you get the 'expired' message.  The 'unknown
    error' message may be from Aldiko - and we're not equipped here in the ADE
    forum to deal with that one - sorry!  If the error message section of the
    Aldiko user guide doesn't tell you either, then you might be able to find
    out what to do about it from an Aldiko forum.
    Your Overdrive comment has me puzzled.  I looked for some context in the
    other posts in this stream, and I didn't see anything that helped.
    Overdrive is a 'elibrary management system' that does much the same thing
    as ADE does.  So, you can import and export ebooks via Overdrive.  Your
    situation seems to revolve around how you get ebooks onto your Tab and then
    get Aldiko to open them for you to read, and I don't know if Overdrive
    supports the Tab either.

  • Unable to use FiOS Mobile Remote App on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2

    I'm one of the holdout Blackberry customers who Verizon doesn't recognize as wanting apps anymore.  I finally broke down and bought an Android tablet device when I saw the FiOS Mobile Remote App and recognized it as an easy solution for controling my multiple HD STBs in my "Man Cave".  Unfortunately, the app has been completely useless.
    The app loads fine.  I'm able to register each HD STB with the app, however doing anything more than the initial set-up for the remote function results in a crash.  Every time I attempt to use it, I get the message "Unfortunately, FiOS Remote has stopped."  I will occassionally see the attempted connection displayed on the corner of my TV screen.
    All other functions of the app work, including the DVR function.
    I've reported this failure for months, using the handy little report button below the crash message.  No response.
    I've commented on this topic in threads from other users with the same problem.  No response.
    I've posted to the comments section of the Google Play store.  No response.
    Please, would someone from Verizon acknowledge this problem exists?  My best theory so far is that my tablet device is not on a Verizon data plan (WiFi only), so therefore Verizon isn't interested in supporting it (or this loyal customer). 
    Device is Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, 7.0, running Android 4.0.4.  All FiOs STBs replaced with latest generation.

    I am sorry to hear about the troubles you are having with the app. We try to make the app as compatible with all devices as possible. The full list of devices the mobile remote is compatible with is https://www22.verizon.com/OnDemand/unprotected/AboutFlexView.aspx   . You may find there may be devices that do work with it that re not on the list, but these are all verified working devices with the app. Since yours doesn't appear to be on the list, we can not gaurantee it will work. Submitting all the feedback has gotten word back to Verizon about the troubles you are having. You can also submit this to the Verizon Idea Exchange. Please search on the idea exchange and cast your vote. There may be another member who made the same suggestion.

    Hi all
    I'm really pleased to announce our photo competition winner, congrats to StuartRogerson - one Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 will be on Santa's sleigh with your name on it shortly!
    But there's still one Galaxy 2 to be won in part two of the competition - see below for the winning photo from Stuart. We felt this picture best captured the feeling and meaning of Christmas - but what do you think? PM a caption for this photo to StephanieG or SeanD and we'll select the best as the winner, it should be something that captures the spirit of Christmas - it can be funny, seasonal or sentimental. Last day for submitting your captions is 23rd Dec (by 5pm) so get your thinking caps on, we're looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

  • Can't get rid of weird Japanese ads on Samsung Galaxy Tab 4

    I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4, and one of the first weeks I started using it, this Japanese Assistive Touch type thing appeared, but wasn’t connected with an app I could uninstall to get rid of it. But after a couple weeks, it disappeared without my noticing (or doing anything to cause it to go away). But now (from about several weeks ago) I have started getting these popup ads. However, they are all in Japanese, which leads me to think the Assistive Touch and these ads are connected somehow. When I have accidentally clicked on the ads they try to get me to download their apps (which all have very suspicious permissions). But now I can’t figure out how to make them go away. I have run scans through TrustGo AntiVirus, AVG AntiVirus, Clean Master Antivirus, TrustGo Ad Detector, and Lookout Ad Detector multiple times, and all of them after an initial scan and clear (which only gave basic things and didn’t solve the problem anyway) have told me my system is clean, even though I am still getting the ads. I have run Clean Master’s Junk Files scan, and in the results under the “Obsolete apks” heading, were three apps with Japanese titles, and the words Not Installed underneath them. I told Clean Master to “clean junk”, and the apps disappeared from the list, but the ads were still appearing. Next, I tried running my device in Safe Mode to see if I could pinpoint the problem to a third party app (even though Clean Master had classified them as Not Installed). When I ran it in Safe Mode, I clicked through all the apps available, and no ads appeared. But when I restarted it in Normal Mode, I clicked through all the same apps from Safe Mode, and still no ads appeared. It was only when I went to a third party app that the ads appeared. I went to several third party apps, and ads popped up on almost all of them. However, I’m not sure what to do to now to try to get the ads off. Any suggestions? I would like to avoid doing a factory reset if at all possible.

    Not technically, no, but around the beginning of when I got my tablet in
    July, an Assistive Touch type thing appeared, but I didn't download it.
    That was also in Japanese, but I couldn't figure out a way to delete it.
    However, it somehow disappeared without my noticing or doing anything about
    it. I feel like they're connected. So the issue's been going on for longer
    than from the last app I downloaded. I haven't removed any apps yet to test
    it though.
