Reset time HP Officejet 5740

[Jacko48]

I just purchased a Officejet 5740 today and have it up and running ok.  My problem is the time displayed is incorrect.  I know for certain I entered it correctly during the setup process, as requested.  I have looked everwhere and cannot find a solution as to how to reset the time.  The date is correct.  Will appreciate any help you can offer.  This really should not be this difficult to do...

Thank you,

Jacko

Thank you for your response!  Unfortunately, there is no setup button or icon on the 5740.  However, I did find if you swipe across the top of the Control Panel horizontally, a Setup button appears.  By clicking on this button, you can get to Preferences, then you can reset the date and time.  I hope this helps somebody else, as I spent way too much time on this simple task...

Thank you, my friend, for the solution to finding the SETUP button on the HP 5740 AiO.  Please remember, however, the difference between HORIZONTAL and VERTICAL scrolling.  You need to swipe VERTICALLY (from top to bottom) on the control panel to access the SETUP button.  Then you can set time, date, etc.  See?  It's easy.
