HP Envy 4500: Crazy loop installation

So I buy the HP Envy 4500 and I got Office Max, compatibility and get the green light. Although I said that I may have to install updates for Windows 10. Ok. Reasonable. But of course this is a magma down. I try and install the driver but it says another installation is in progress and I need to complete that one before so I can... So I'll install Assistant buzz around all treat stuff with the particular problem but nothing works, because I have a current installation. My guess is that I am still trying to install a driver that can not install but this time prevents me from installing a will. It's so typical. I filled all my surveys of customer dissatisfaction, but hey, is there a way out?

Hey @Hebephrene,

Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

I understand you're caught in the purgatory of software try to configure your HP ENVY 4500 e-all-in-one printer on a Windows 10 PC. I want to help you break out of this loop and finally enjoy your printer in full capacity.

I recommend you try the following steps:

Restart your PC.

Save all files, and restart your PC for a new start.

Remove temporary files from your PC:

  • Press the Windows key + r
  • Type %temp%, and then press enter
  • Press Ctrl + a to select all files
  • Press Delete
  • Note that some files do not delete - do not worry, this is normal. Simply click ignore that you're prompted.
  • Empty your trash at the end.

Run the system files check

  • Click here and start a File System Check as directed by Microsoft.

Download the printer Installation Wizard

Click here to install the HP printer install wizard (instead of directly using the printer driver). When you run it, this utility will facilitate what I hope it's a smoother and more efficient printer installation. It should recognize the printer to the computer or its direct wireless connectivity usb connection and install the latest driver for Windows 10.

Please let me know the result of your troubleshooting by responding to this post. If I helped you to solve the problem and that you liked this post, feel free to give me virtual accessories by clicking on the 'Thumbs Up' icon below and by clicking to accept this solution.

Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support. Have a great day!

  • HP Envy 4500/Series: Cablelink (Austrian cable service) / installation HP Envy 4500 series problem

    Hi, I have a new HP Envy 4500, and it does not connect to my wireless network. He sees the correct SSID (using WPA - PSK / TKIP or AES), but he will not join the network after providing the WPA key. Printing test results shows a FAILURE on > parameters - without filtering. I don't know if I use MAC filtering on the network, because I don't know how to check this on this modem.

    I am also unable to join using the WPS procedure. I tried with and without a USB connection. I have 5 other wireless devices on the network, which all connect without any problems.

    In addition, I put static IP details on the Panel after reading the HP forum where this problem was stated by setting just the IP address and no subnets. Still no connection

    The printer works via USB ok.

    I got it connected to my neighbors A1s wi - fi network.

    I have a new wireless network to cable and modem put cable in the last week connected to Cablelink. I have a new router Cisco EPC3940. I tried to restart, connection to WPS and wireless USB connected. Reset the printer and modem and tried with and without using a static IP address.

    I tried to reconnect to my neighbors A1 connection - success.

    I tried with USB lead-success

    I tried direct to print without wire-success

    I tried to share wireless USB by using HP software-failure

    I tried the HP PC don't doctor too - no available solutions.

    I have read and tried several fixes on the HP forum-no success

    The fault is clearly my printer connect to my cable modem wireless (or my printer connect to my wi - fi of Cablelink) like all other connection works!

    I posted at the end of a similar position, but did not respond. Help please.

    Carl

    I finally solved this problem after 2 weeks of trying everything! Based on the above comment from BH, I thought that I had to turn off my radio show from 5 Hz. My new router has prevented to me because of the way Cablelink run their software. However, I finally got access to change it. I disabled 5 Hz. I still have the invalid password! Then, I changed the predefined WPA WPA2. It worked. I turned on my 5 Hz back show, the printer is remained connected. I then changed back to WPA2 and immediately lost connection! I put it to WPA and it connected again! I did NOT change key wireless, he remained at 16 characters, just the level of security! It seems if I want my Envy NEW 4500 with UPDATE drivers on my wireless network, I have to REDUCE my password security, which comes by default with modems cable new with Cisco, and accept the WPA! The strange thing is my old Iphone 4 and my old Apple TV both connected without problem. Therefore more recent Iphone to my wife 5 c and our newest Samsung UHD TV. So why a NEW model of printer is sold in stores right now, not able to work on WPA2? I lost 2 weeks on this issue before the sort it! It works, but I'm not happy! Same HP UK failed to connect after 4 hours on their online chat and remote assistance online! I worked it out myself from the comment by BH! Thanks BH. HP POST PLEASE A REPLY ON THIS THREAD WHEN YOU FINALLY WRITE A SOFTWARE FOR YOUR PRINTER TO WORK ON WPA2. MAYBE YOU CAN EMAIL CISCO IN ORDER TO WORK OUT HOW TO DO THIS BETWEEN YOU.

  • HP Envy 4500 - Scan does not, most periodic freezing

    Hello

    I'm having a ton of problems with my HP Envy 4500. I will first start by scanning. First to get the "No found computer" message when you try to scan (I can print fine however). I tried HP Print & Scan doctor, he said I was not fully installed the driver. So I download the file ~ 100 MB, then it passes through basic facilities, then allows you to "Connect to printer", I'm wireless and enter the IP address (which is connected and Excellent report) and about 10 seconds later, he says: "cannot find the printer. My only options are the search, the installation program and cancel. Therefore, I can never get to install and he sends me in a loop. I also file & Printer sharing turned on with Windows 8.1, with the automatic configuration of network devices.

    Since the end of the printer, I've tried manual and automatic IP and also directly connect without a bit of luck. In addition to these frustrations adds the printer freeze about every 10-15 minutes. I have to disconnect and reconnect the printer for it to work again because it is totally insensitive.

    Finally, my printer indicates an update is available, so I download a driver, but it ends with the OXB82EF9BA error code. All crashes again.

    I tried everything that I can for hours without success. Please notify.

    Because you are having problems with the HP software, I'll give you a few steps to help:

    Please uninstall the software on your computer by following this document from HP about uninstalling the printer software. When it finished, I would like you to clean your Temp folder on your computer:

    1. click on the start menu, in search programs and files type % temp %

    2. press on Ctrl and together on your keyboard (this will highlight all)

    3. right click on your mouse and click on remove

    If you printer is still the gel, then make sure that the printer is connected to a live wall, not a surge protector. I want to see if that makes a difference. Also, try to reset the printer for more than 60 seconds. Leave the printer turned on > unplug the power cord at the back of the printer.

    You receive an error message "OX82EF9BA". This refers to an error in Windows Update. You must perform this update on your computer. Please post your results, I will be looking forward to hear from your part have a good night!

  • HP Envy 4500: Print jobs disappear from the print queue and not print (Windows 7).

    I just bought a HP Envy 4500 printer,

    When you attempt to print from a PC with windows 7 OS home pro (64-bit), the print job appears in the queue and then disappears, but the printer does not print anything.

    Everything else seems to work very well know

    • The printer prints the internal test page
    • The printer does print when you use iPad2
    • The printer does print when you use ePrint
    • The PC recognizes and communicates with the printer (tried with USB connections and wireless)
    • Analysis feature works very well - when initiated from the PC and printer

    I tried

    • uninstalling and reinstalling the software (several times using software from different sources)
    • restart the printer queue service
    • Disabling the firewall
    • running printing HP and doctor Scan
    • following the instructions described here (the question is the same but the different operating system):

    Print jobs disappear from the print queue and print (Windows 8)

    • combinations of all of the above

    Absolutely no joy in any of them, and in spite of more than 2 hours of research on Google and forums search I can't find a solution.

    HP... can you give me a solution or is that goes back to the shop?

    Well I finally worked on the fix myself by trial and error.  I changed the security settings for 'All' and 'Creator owner' to 'Print' and "Administer Documents".  Why on earth they were not automatically allowed as part of the installation, I couldn't really say.

    Hope this helps someone else with a similar problem.

  • HP ENVY 4500 e-all-in-one: cartridges and country

    History:

    My father-in-law is living in Belgium, near the border.  He went to Holland for shopping sow, a promotion for a HP Envy printer and purchased.  Simple.  Then when I was visiting him, he asked me to install the printer.  I tried and it sucked!

    Following the installation guide (a double-sided with only the images page), I removed the protection, under voltage, chose my country (Belgium), discovered the heads of cartridges and insert cartridges.  But the printer screen showed a message explaining that the cartridges were not intended for this printer.  They came out of the box the printer!

    So time to seek the support of troubleshooting.  And I found this page http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02558798 explaining all the evils that you get if you cross a border with a HP product!

    Assuming that the problem is related to this wonderful device...

    WHY should I select a country?

    WHY is there no clear warning on the box as 'to be used only for the Netherlands?

    If the problem has some other cause...

    WHERE can I find real support of troubleshooting?

    Conclusion:

    What is the lesson?

    So far: do not buy the product HP more

    While HP regionalize some inkjet products, the Belgium and the Netherlands are in the same region and use the same cartridges HP 301 in the Envy 4500 printer.

    The question that you see is unrelated to the regionalization.  It is possible, that there is one grain of paper dust or other debris on the electrical contacts.  I would suggest the steps of troubleshooting in the paper here.  If this does not resolve the issue please contact HP.

    From a post of Sunshyn2005, contact technical support HP see the following link to create yourself a file number, then call and it can help to expedite the appeal process:

    Step 1. Open the link: www.hp.com/contacthp/
    Step 2. Enter the product number or select Auto detection
    Step 3. Scroll up to "still need help? Fill out the form to select your contact options.
    Step 4. Scroll down and click on: contact HP options - click Get phone number

  • HP envy 4500 prints not windows 8. Think that it prints, but it doesn't.

    I'm trying to print from my Toshiba laptop running Windows 8 for my HP Envy 4500 wireless. Worked very well for my ipad, worked very well for my desktop and laptop computers running Windows 7. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the driver of printer 5 times. Printer is recognized, has an IP address and print an internal test page. When I print to it from my machine Windows 8, the file goes into the queue, gets a port and then disappears as if it was printed. Nothing prints. Please help, it's SO frustrating.

    Hello

    I understand that you have done the process several times, and I definitely understand how that can be frustrating. I was wondering if you tried HP printer installation wizard to reinstall because it can often install things missing if this is the case here. If you have not tried, but I would like if you could try now and we can go from there if the problem persists. Thank you!

    Network Power Reset:

    We'll leave the router and unplug the power cable (NOTE: do not reset the router.), and then do the same with the printer and shut down the computer. After a minute, plug in the router, wait to fully turn on, then plug the printer back in and wait for the wireless light become solid. Once the router and the printer are on, go ahead and re - turn on the computer. This will refresh the network connection.

    Restore the default settings of the network and reconnect:

    1. on the front panel of the printer, press your up wireless icon

    2. Select settings.

    3. Select restore default network settings.

    4 turn on your printer.

    5. once it is initialized to save, press the wireless icon again.

    6. Select settings.

    7. Select Wireless Assistant , and then follow the prompts to enter the details of your wireless network.

    8. try to activate the web services again.

    Configure a manual DNS for your printer:

    1 obtain the IP address of your printer

    a. This can be done by pressing the icon on the printer wireless.

    2. Enter the printer's IP address in a browser on your computer.

    3. Select the tab network at the top of the page.

    4. on the left, select network.

    5. Select network address (IP)

    6. Select manual DNS server

    a. manual Preferred DNS should read 8.8.8.8

    b. alternate DNS server should read. 8.8.4.4

    7. Select apply. You can get a warning simply select OK.

    Please reply to let me know if these steps resolve your issue.

    Good luck!

  • install the hp envy 4500

    I have a new HP Envy 4500. I installed it and on a laptop with Windows 7, everything works as it should. I'm now trying to connect another laptop running Windows 8.

    I go through the steps, following the instructions on the supplied CD. When I get to "enable - continue we Line" I get a message saying "check internet connection and try again.»

    The laptop is connected to the internet.

    Any suggestions on how to complete the installation?

    Hi KiteFlyer,

    I see that you have any questions, fill out the installation for your craving for 4500 on your computer Windows 8. I'm sorry to hear that, but I will certainly do my best to help out

    When the installation gets to that point, and gives you the error, you are able to open Internet Explorer and navigate to a Web site and click on a link?
    If your laptop is wireless you are able to connect directly to the router/modem during installation to ensure it does not lose connection or something like that?
    How far are you from the printer and the router when you run the installation?

    You can try to use the HP printer installation wizard to install the printer as well and see if it uses different results.

    I hope hear from you soon!

  • HP ENVY 4500 does not print a PDF file

    I have Win7 HP laptop HP ENVY 4500 all-in-One printer wireless and iMac OS X 10.9.1 desktop. It prints all good document file formats, except a PDF file. When I try to print a page of a PDF doc't, via Adobe Reader (11.0.07), it prints 6 equidistant tiny portions of the original PDF page on a single sheet. All six parties are in the same area of the upper quadrant of the original PDF page. I tried many portrait, landscape and size configurations, but in vain. It will not print PDF of my iMac and PC browsers files. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the printer and its driver a couple of times. It installs OK without error messages, but it will not print PDF. Also, I don't get any error messages when I try to print a PDF file. I don't see any documentation supplied with the printer printer to say that this HP all-in-one cannot print PDF doc'ts, and it seems to me that it would print a PDF file until several weeks ago. Please notify.

    I was finally able to print PDF files. But it's been so long ago because it was fixed that I don't even remember what was the solution. But four possibilities come to mind: (1) is of course the "print as image file" option has been activated; (2) re-installed printer driver; (3) re-installed Acrobat Reader and ensured that browser and extensions of processing of s/w, if any, have been correctly selected for my printer. (4) corrected a wrong paper, the type, quality, or size option layout which may have resulted in a page layout or a different format from what should be the 'standard' to a PDF file. Sorry I can't be more specific than that. But if I have to determine exactly what I could do to get PDF printing to work properly, I will go straight to you. BTW, I certainly don't rely on an intermediate file conversion service or s/w to transfer my PDF files to a printable format. I hope this helps.

  • HP ENVY 4500 E - ALL - IN - ONE: HP ENVY 4500 E - ALL - IN - ONE DOES NOT PRINT

    I can't print from my desktop PC with an ethernet connection, but I am able to print from my laptop with a Wi - Fi connection.

    The printer used to work on my desktop PC, then I upgraded to Windows 10, made the operating system was not entirely compatible with my PC, reformatted it with the help of remote support Microsoft, back to Windows 7, had a lot of problems with Windows Update and WIndows Installer and so also with the installation of the driver.

    I tried installing from the original installation CD HP Envy with no luck, uninstalled and reinstalled with the latest driver from the HP website with no luck and since (apparently) to solve the problem with Windows Update and WIndows Installer, uninstalled and reinstalled the driver software on the CD again with no luck.

    I tried all the suggestions on the forums, with my computer hang too for the first time in weeks at the recommendation of msconfig on your forum for disabling startup programs.

    The scanner works.

    Sometimes, in Word, I get a message error "Windows cannot print due to a problem with the current printer setup". Sometimes I have no message.

    (I use Service Pack 1)

    Hi HPAGJ,

    Thank you for coming back to us.

    Gemini02 is currently out of the office so I thought jump in and help.

    When you run the PSDR, have you selected the connection "network (192.168.2.107) is not installed? Being not fully installed is causing the problem.

    There is corruption on the computer, this can certainly occur after you upgrade your operating system. I suggest to try the following steps in the following order for best results.

    Manually delete the print driver:

    Step 1
    ======
    Start Windows Explorer, and then rename all the files and folders in the following two folders:
    c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\w32X86
    To rename a file, we can click with the right button on the file and select Rename.
     
    Step 2
    ======
    1. Click Start, type REGEDIT in the start search bar and then press ENTER.
    2. navigate to and then click the following registry key:
     

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environment\Windows NT x 86
    View the list of subkeys. There should be only the following subkeys:
     
    Drivers
    Print processors
    If there are any keys other than those listed above, follow these steps:
    a. on the file menu, click Export.
    (b) in the file name box, type a descriptive name for this key--for example, type WindowsNTx86regkey - and then click Save to save it to your local office.
    We can use this backup of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environment\Windows NT x 86 registry key to restore the key if you experience problems after you complete this procedure.
    c. delete all keys other than drivers and print processors.
     
    Step 3
    ======
    Find and click the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors registry key. View the list of subkeys. There should be only the following subkeys:
    BJ language monitor
    The local port
    Microsoft Document Imaging writer monitor
    Microsoft Shared Fax Monitor
    Standard TCP/IP port
    USB Monitor
    WSD port
    If there are any keys other than those listed above, follow these steps to remove them:
    a. on the file menu, click Export.
    (b) in the file name box, type a descriptive name for this key--for example, type Monitorsregkey - and then click Save to save it to your local office.
    We can use this backup of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors registry key to restore the key if you experience problems after you complete this procedure.
    c. delete all keys other than the above 5.
     
    Step 4. Disconnect the printer from the computer and restart the computer.
     
    Step 5. Reconnect the cable from the printer to the computer, install the printer according to the manufacturer's installation instructions and then check if the problem persists.

    Hello, I bought this printer on 1 October and installed on my laptop Windows 10. My question is I noticed there was a series of printer e-all-in-one HP ENVY 4500 full feature software and drivers, version 32.3, filename: EN4500_198.exe which was released on November 12, 2015. Should I download and install this because I've had since October 2015 printer? If so do I have to do something after the installation to keep my printer working correctly on my WIFI wireless? Thanks in advance for any help that I couldn't find out how call HP to ask this question.

    Thank you very much for your answer! I finally understood how do I know what version of the software and the drivers, I have this morning and I don't have the version more recent and even I was wondering about. Thanks again and have a great Thanksgiving action!
