Hello.
I have a printer that i would like to connect with my HP Laptop but, I do not know how to connect it. I have downloaded the All in One Remote App and I do not know how to connect my iPhone to my printer. Can you tell me in steps how to connect my iPhone to my printer and connect my printer to my laptop? I would be very appriciated. Thank you!

Hi @Kpop_Lover-1,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that your're looking for information on how to setup your HP Officejet 5740 e-All-in-One Printer on your HP computer and your iPhone. I would be happy to help you and please remember to return to this thread and mark 'Accept as Solution', if I have successfully helped you resolve the issue.

In order to assist you better, I may require more information.
What operating system are you using? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
There are a couple ways to install the HP software on your HP computer.
1. Click here to proceed to HP.com to download the software package.
2. HP Printer Install Wizard. The HP Printer Install Wizard automatically finds the best available print driver for your HP Printer. It is available only for Windows 10, 8, and 7. Download and run Printer Install Wizard a free tool from HP. When this link is clicked, HP Printer Install Wizard is downloaded using your Internet browser's download capabilities.
Installing the Printer Software.
- Follow the on-screen instructions until you are prompted for Connection Type.
- Select either Through the Network, Network, or Wireless when prompted.
- The wording will depend on the version of software you are installing.
- In some cases the software may automatically find your wireless settings for you.
- Follow the on-screen directions to finish installing the software for your printer.
If you have used either WPS or the control panel Wireless Setup Wizard methods to establish a wireless connection between the printer and your wireless network, or if you have already connected the printer to your network and are now installing the software onto another computer which will share the printer, the software should find the printer over the network during the installation process.
Sometimes the software has difficulty finding the printer over the network. If this happens, you will have a chance to do an "advanced search" for the printer using the printer's assigned IP address. You can find the IP address by printing either the Wireless Network Test report or a Network Configuration page.
If this is a first time installation and you are using the USB setup of the wireless method, the software will not find the printer on the network and you will be guided though creating a wireless connection for the printer.
For help with your iPhone, please post your question on the board for ePrint, Print Apps, Mobile Printing, and ePrintCenter: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/ePrint-Print-Apps-Mobile-Printing-and-ePrintCenter/bd-p/Photo
I hope this helps. Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. I look forward to hearing from you. Good Luck!
