Since the option is already greyed out, you can go ahead and select "Enable Webservices". Then wait for few minutes and this will print a page with email address in it.

Re: Cannot enable web services

In that case I suggest you to print HP Network Configuration Page and make a note of the Printer IP address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway as printed in the page.

 

Next open Internet Explorer browser and type the printer IP in the address bar and press Enter key. This will open printer information web page also known as EWS (Embedded Web Server) page. Here click on Network. If the printer is in Wireless, select Wireless and one of the settings displayed talks about Manual IP configuration.

 

At this setting select Manual IP and enter the Printer IP, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway. Then select Manual DNS and enter the following addresses

 

8.8.8.8

8.8.4.4

 

Save the settings and turn OFF and turn ON the printer. Try re-enabling the webservices and check the result,

Re: Cannot enable web services

Yes, this worked like a dream on my HP PhotoSmart 7510 (seems like the HP printers are not so smart after all!)
