HP Deskjet 2540 All-in-One Printer - Manual (Page 56)

Change from a USB connection to a wireless network
If you first set up your printer and installed the software with a USB cable, directly connecting the
printer to your computer, you can easily change to a wireless network connection. You will need a
wireless 802.11b/g/n network that includes a wireless router or access point.
NOTE: The HP Deskjet 2540 series only supports connections using 2.4GHz.
Before changing from a USB connection to a wireless network, make sure that:
● The printer is connected to your computer with the USB cable until you are prompted to
disconnect the cable.
● The computer is connected to the wireless network that you intend to install the printer on.
