Hi @lugemwafn,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

It sounds like you're encountering issues setting up your HP LaserJet M140w printer. If you're not finding your exact model listed, here are a few steps you can try.

 

Check Compatibility: Ensure that the software or driver you are using supports the HP LaserJet M140w model specifically. Sometimes similar models might not have the exact same software compatibility.

Manual Installation: If the model isn't listed, you can try manually installing the printer. Here's how:

  • Go to your computer's Control Panel or Settings and navigate to Devices or Printers & Scanners.
  • Look for an option to Add a printer or Add a device.
  • Select Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings.
  • Follow the prompts to add the printer using the IP address or hostname of your printer.

Download from HP's Website: Visit the HP support website and search for the driver/software specifically for the HP LaserJet M140w. Download the latest drivers and software package, then install it on your computer.

 

By following these steps, you should be able to set up your HP LaserJet M140w printer successfully. If you need further assistance with any of these steps, feel free to ask!

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
