I've had my HP Deskjet 2540 for 5 yrs now and it still is dependable for me until we switched to a different WiFi network. I watched this video and was able to reconnect my printer in minutes. Thank you very much!😆😆😆

I am having endless problems setting up my LaserJet Pro M404dn printer. I have connected the USb to the printer and my laptop but it doesn't pick up the connection and my only option is later connection. Do you know why this is?

HP have made installing a printer exponentially more complicated than 20 years ago. What an unmitigated disaster they are.

Can you change this later or do I need to uninstall and install?

[thaidaym]

Too bad HP doesn't let you directly install drivers anymore and instead wants you to use HP Smart. My printer still doesn't work...

[parthadutta]

Before installing the Printer I put the cd on the computer.But its not showing reponding

[kaipeterson]

It's pretty bad when the company can't even answer our questions on how to set up thier own printers. I've been trying for over an hour with no success following their instructions. windows 10, USB cable. Why so difficult?

[michaelbarry]

I can't figure this out...I will hire a computer engineer to do it

After having endless problems with wifi printing, I uninstalled everything. I am trying to reinstall the printer. When I get to the screen where it tells you to connect the printer and USB port, it doesn't pick up the connection and my only option is later connection. Do you know why this is?
