I have an HP OfficeJet 5740-e-all in one series. I don’t know how to use it wirelessly with my new laptop. I can hook them up together with a USB cable from the back of the printer, but I can’t use it wirelessly with that laptop or with my iPhone X. Can anybody tell me what to do? And I don’t think I have the original set up disk for this printer. I’ve had it a number of years. Maybe I should just get a new one but this one was expensive and is still working great. Thank you for your help. Kathleen

Welcome to the HP support community.
I understand that you are getting Wireless connectivity issues, I am glad to assist you.
You change from a USB connection to a wireless network, follow these steps:-
1. Depending on your operating system, do one of the following:
● Windows 10: Click the down arrow in the lower left corner of the Start screen, select the printer name, and then click Utilities.
2. Click Printer Setup & Software.
3. Select Convert a USB-connected printer to wireless. Follow the onscreen instructions.
Keep me posted.
