I recently had a paper that I needed to print, I wasn't home near my printer.  I'm sure there's an application to send my printer instructions through our HP cloud services?  I cant seem to get there.  Thanks for your help!

You can set up your printer on Web Services, set an email address used by the printer, and use email to send your print job to the printer. 

 

ePrint

 

There are some caveats - file type, size, paper, no "BCC", some attachments allowed, others not-so-much...

 

The bulk of what you need is in

Category How to > Select Topic:  Print > Select Subtopic:  Print Apps, ePrint or Mobile Printing

including...

 Set Up an HP Smart Website Account (formally HP Connected)

 Find the Printer Claim Code

Print with HP ePrint

Change Your HP ePrint Email Address

 

 Manage HP ePrint Access for Additional Users

and, for Mobile

Print with HP ePrint App (Android, Amazon Fire)

 

Your nice Officejet Pro 8740 supports digital "send" services - this is a nice feature.

Lots of features and options worth checking.

 

Example - Embedded Web Server (EWS) - Web Services
