Hi @Meghana_10,

I’m referring to the  apps available once Web Service Settings are enabled. If I’m not mistaken, these include features such as Scan to Email, Dropbox, Google Drive, and similar services. Please see screenshots below.

@Meghana_10

We only have one printer, so it’s difficult for us to send it to the service center since we use it for daily operations. That’s why I’d like to check all possible solutions first before deciding if it’s worth sending in for repair.

Would you mind checking if there’s an option to downgrade the firmware back to the previous version?

We already encountered this issue before after updating to the latest firmware, and it was resolved by manually updating the firmware via flash drive. I still have the .ful2 file (P1_002.2349) that was previously used, but I’m unable to replicate the process they did before.

Thank you.

Hi @red-den
 

Thanks for your response. 

I understand how important it is to keep your printer running smoothly, especially since it’s essential for your daily operations.

The current firmware version available on our official website for the HP OfficeJet Pro 7740 is:

Version: 002.2602A

File Size: 62.2 MB

Release Date: February 3, 2026

At this time, HP does not provide a rollback option to install a previous firmware version once the printer has been updated. The firmware posted on the support website is the latest validated release, and older versions are not available for download or installation through official channels.

If you are experiencing issues after updating, we recommend:

• Performing a printer reset to clear any temporary glitches.
• Ensuring the firmware update was fully completed without interruption.
• Checking for any driver or software updates on your connected PC.
• Running the HP Smart App  utility to diagnose and resolve common problems.

I hope this helps.
