Officejet 5740 unable to connect to network

I have tried changing router settings, but the printer will not connect.

Hello @kbcga Welcome to the HP Forums
I read your post about your Officejet 5740 not connecting. As you mentioned that you have tried to change router settings, the printer may not be connecting to the network. If you are seeing a message that states "Unable to find printer", I would suggest following all of the steps, in order, from the guide I have posted below.
An 'Unable to Find the Printer' Error Displays for the HP ENVY 7640, Officejet 5740, and Officejet 8...
If you continue to run into any troubles, please respond to me with all of the important details, and error messages and where exactly you are seeing them.
Have a fantastic day

  • Imac FaceTime unable to connect to network (safari connected and loading pages).

    I have a brand new Imac, I have never been able to get facetime to work. It keeps getting hung up on the log in page, and eventually gives me an error message of unable to connect to network. Safari and other web based programs are working perfectly. 
    Any Ideas?

    How can I get my Mac to join an open 3Com wireless
    network? The network is recognised but Mac is unable
    to connect...
    The 3Com wireless router is connected to a broadband
    router through a PC running XP.
    Do you have two routers? That may be your issue. You should only be using one router, or configure one of the routers and turn of DHCP.

    What TC do you have? Model number direct from the base is a big help, it will be A1 followed by 3 numbers.. eg
    A1409 Gen 4.. The new AC is A1470
    How is it setup?
    I need the whole network setup. what modem/router, how is the TC connected etc??
    I also need to know what IP the ipod gets, so I can see what mode the TC or network router is working in.

  • Ipod "unable to connect to network"

    i have an ipod4, and i'm only unable to connect to my home router, my friend's ipod connects to it fine, but mine is having problems, i have reset network settings, turned off sercuity on router and was still unable to connect, i have gone into router and opened mac address too but still wont let me connect, any suggestions

    I tried powering down the router. When it's off the iTouch does not recognize the network and then when it's powered on again, the iTouch recognizes the network. Unlike the public wi-fi spots that my iTouch responds to, where all the info like IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router, DNS etc are populated in the settings...my iTouch does not populate these fields at home even though it recognizes the network. I still get the unable to connect to network error. Could it be that my router is antiquated and can not support the iTouch? Like I said earlier, my Router does not recognize the iTouch as being attached to it.

  • NOKIA N8 - Unable to connect - WLAN Network not fo...

    also for NOKIA N8 THE SAME PROBLEM: Unable to connect - WLAN Network not found;I see my network in the wlan list (Tthe state is "knowed") but when i try to connect to it,i read: Unable to connect-wlan network not found;i tryed with: mac filter on/off,dhcp on/of,wep protection on/off,firewall router on/off,power saving in the phone on/off, but the problem is the same ever!..Niklas Savander,..where you are?..nokia is back?..but with the same problems!

    Well, I seem to have issues with WLAN as well.
    When I am approx. 10metres away from my Router, the N8 doesn't connect. However, I can connect to WLAN using my Nokia N900, Nokia E52 and my Netbook (Asus EEE1005HA). This is a N-router with standard settings. I have tried changing, the channels etc. but it doesn't resolve the problem.
    So is this a problem with the Nokia N8? I mean, all my other wireless devices work fine. I even tried changing the Wireless Interface type from N/B/G, to B/G but as I said before, the problem is still there.
    Hopefully this problem can be sorted with a software update, that is if the N8 finds it difficult to connect to Wireless Internet.
    P.S.: Tthere is another thread reporting similar problems. Here is the link.

  • Officejet 8100 unable to connect to printer, still prints half the time

    Just started getting a pop up today. Every time i print to the 8100 it tells me it can't connect to the printer, that it can't find it over the network or wirelessly. But, it still prints most of the time. I've tested the connection with other USB cables all of them are about 4ft long. They are not going through extenders or hubs, all directly connecting to the computer. I've unplugged all other USB devices (except keyboard and mouse, which are both dell generics the computer came with), and i've tested it in each of the USB ports. I ran the scan doctor another post mentioned and it came back with no errors. Though the printer still prints, it fails to print a good 3rd of the time. only way to fix that is to unplug the printer from the computer, turn it off, plug it back into the computer, then turn it on again. Really, incredibly inconvenient here.

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand that your HP Officejet 8100 is unable to connect, even though it still prints half the time on Windows 7. I am happy to take a look into this for you!  Please try the steps within this guide, 'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the Printer Does Not Print: Windows 7, and let me know what happens!  Hope to hear from you soon!  “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

  • Unable to connect to network with Safari and Software Update

    A user I support has encountered a problem with networking. He is unable to connect to the network with Safari and Software Update, but IS able to connect and surf with Foxfire and some other programs. Another unusual symptom is that he actually can connect to one web site (which is in his Bookmarks Bar) with Safari, but can't connect to anything else. He's also unable to navigate off of that one site he connects to. When he runs Network Diagnostics, he gets all green lights (no problems). He has fixed permissions, deleted Safari Cache and .plist, rebooted - not fixed yet. He's using 10.4.8 on a PowerPC G4. Any ideas appreciated (this is the wierdest I've seen in a while!).

    Here's what he did. After reading your post, he created another location in his network preferences, entering EXACTLY the same info that was in his old location (he even used the old DNS addresses), except using a new location name. Then he chose the new location and "everything worked". It's one of life's great mysteries. Thanks for your help - it is appreciated.

  • HP Officejet 4500 Unable to connect

    Recently I bought the HP wireless 4500. I did the setup on my desktop computer to be use it as wireless, tested and printing perfect, so I installed in my laptop and was able to print without problems, but as soon as turn my desktop off I am not able to print from my laptop getting the error "Unable to connect". Did I miss something?  

    Tell me about your network - router brand/model, encryption type (WEP, WPA, etc) and ISP type (DSL, Cable, etc).
    Also, what operating systems are you using?

  • HT204409 unable to connect to network

    I am unable to join the network.  I have reset all wi-fi and disconnected router and turn ipad 2 on and off and still get the same message.  Any other ideas??  Thank you

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
