Hi @Neetu1

Here is a link to a previous post about this topic: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/HP-Connected-Mobile-Printing-and-Cloud-Printing/hp-deskjet-2540-passwor...

It includes this tip that i think should help you.....

"Press and hold the wireless DIRECT button together with the cancel button (which is the X) for about 3 seconds, it will print out the "HOW TO CONNECT PAGE" and it will give the wireless password for your printer."

Hope this helps 🙂

Hi @Neetu1

Oh no  perhaps by pressing the wireless direct button on the printer display (to get the password) the wireless connection may have been knocked off? Try hitting that wireless direct button again.
