I've just bought a Deskjet 2540 All in one printer and it won't print any documents. I've installed the software from the disk and updated via the web as well. The laptop (vista) can see the printer and the hp software can see the printer but when I try to print a document it appears to send but doesn't appear in the print queue, nothing prints. I used the hp Print & Scan doctor which gave a green tick to everything up to the test page point. The test page will not print and I'm then prompted to print an internal test page, this prints perfectly and the print & scan doctor then tells me the problem is with the software and to uninstall and reinstall which I've done (removing all hp software from add/remove programme) before reinstalling from the website and the same thing happens. I've tried using a notebook (Windows 7 starter) and it's the same result.

 

Any help would be much appreciated

 

Cheers
