Hp Deskjet 2540
iPhone

I am trying to set up my Deskjet 2540 to my iPhone so that I can print documents I have on my phone. I know my printer is not available for eprint, however it is useable for airprint with iPhone. I am trying to set it up, so i went to my Wi-Fi connection on my phone and I found my printer, but it is asking for the password. How do I find the password to my printer? I have never set a password because I have never used this printer before. Please Help! Thanks!

That didn't work either, thanks for trying to help though! 🙂

It could be the password of your router.  Have you tried that password?

Did you manage to find a password? I'm having the same difficulty. 😥

Never mind I found out how to find the password. Press the black and white button on the printer for 3 seconds and then it will print out a paper (make sure it has paper) containing your password for the printer.

what is the password?
