• HP Envy 4500: Printer says it has solid network connection, but cannot connect to the internet

  So I have not been able to use my printer wireless lately, so I decided to check if it was connected to my wireless network. It is; I checked, re-connected and checked several times. So I decided to reactivate my web services. I have them turned off, and now whenever I press the button on the printer ePrint, it says connection for a really long time and then displays the message in the sense of "the printer cannot connect to the server. Check the internet connection and proxy settings.

  I have re-connected the printer to my wireless network, I checked that if I use a proxy server (I'm not), I used the HP print and Scan Doctor - just, it won't just matter what I do.

  All I can think about is the fact that I have recently purchsed a new router, but says that its connected which is what really stem me.

  This printer makes me crazy - please help

  Hi @mastersword64,

  Welcome to the HP community!

  I hope you have a pleasant experience with us.

  I want to help you with the connection error, you get on your e-all-in-one of HP ENVY 4500 printer when you try to enable web services.

  Here are some steps, I suggest trying to get your web services up and running it again:

  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!

  

• My toshiba laptop will not connect to my HP Envy 4500 printer

  Recently, I tried to connect my Toshiba laptop running Windows 8, wireless on my HP Envy 4500 printer. I am trying to scan something on my laptop, I did with the printer before. I have the remote app, and I have connected to the network the printer wireless displays in the wifi of my computer. However, when you try to get the printer to scan, using the option on the printer screen, it says that no device is connected, and to ensure that the software has been installed and this scan to pc has been activated. I opened the application on my laptop, in hopes of getting better results using what it was, but he told me that the printer is offline, if it was obviously on. I'm not entirely sure why the printer doesn't recognize my laptop, even if my laptop recognizes. I spent nearly two hours, disconnection and reconnection, as well as the printer off about three times. I'm about to uninstall the application and try to reinstall, but I'm questioning that results will be better.

  I don't see any other way to solve this problem, because there is no USB port to connect a USB cable don't, like myprevious printer and wonder if it is my laptop, not the printer, which is faulty. It works for printing, when it comes to other devices in my house, but I had problems same impression with my Toshiba before. I tried only with another scanning device: a desktop HP Pavilion Media Center TV PC computer. I'm starting to think that the scanner is broken to only other reognizing products HP and ask any advice to fix this problem.

  Hi AMakkei,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  I understand that you can't scan with your Envy HP 4500 to your laptop Windows 8, and I'm happy to help you with this problem of connection!

  To get help, I'll need to know the following information:

  • If the printer is capable of making copies of itself.
  • If the power cable plugged into a surge protector, or directly on a wall plug. Questions when it is connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power. This is true for printers and ink jet.

  In the meantime, please try go through this guide. A computer"not found" or a Message appears "connection error" during the scanningand let me know what happens!

  I hope to hear from you and have a nice day!

• 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.

• 4500 envy: Envy 4500 printer not

  So my Envy 4500 printer worked very well on the network for more than a year, but last week we had our wifi router change and since it does not print. Well, it prints, but you must put the printer off, then put it back and it will print only the first document in the queue (it will not print, you must do the same thing) I tried to make my pc and it says that "a document in the queue block printing" or something like that and it removes the document but if you try to reprint it does the same thing thing.

• HP Envy 4500: HP Envy 4500 printer problem

  I have a HP Envy 4500 printer which has worked very well for a while. Recently I converted to NBN with a new router and well that the laptop has had no problem with the printer connectitivity. The printer works fine for about 10 days, then do not print. When I use the doctor of printing & scanning HP he passes through the "fix" and finally confirmed that it will be printed internally, but must be uninstalled and installed again. I did it and it installs ok then, (I use the download to be installed on the HP site) and it prints ok again for a while.

  I use the wifi for the laptop and the printer, and even still have the printer close to the router, the printer will print after 10 days. The printer wifi appears connected correctly.

  Why it works for ten days and then do not print unless I uninstall the printer and reinstall?

  Hello

  Thank you for using the forum.

  Have you tried to see if the IP address of the printer has changed whenyou can not print?

  You go to the front panel and press the 'Wireless', and it will display the IP address.

  Now go to the PC > start > all programs (or all apps to win 10) > HP > HP4500 > IP update

  Run small applications and compare if the IP address on your printer software is the same as on the printer.

  If this isn't the case, it is the reason why it can not print!

  Look at this video, he shows how to create a static IP address, there is a part of the video at the end that uses the "update IP address" address verification tool that has been described above.

  Creating a static IP address by using EWS

  https://goo.GL/m4hexn

  Update the IP address is at 01:41

  You may consider to change the address of your printer to Static if it is what the cause of your problem.

  Let us know.

  Unplug the power cable

  Unplug the USB cable (if used on USB)

  Remove the CD from your PC (if it was)

  Then, uninstall all HP software.

  Dear support,

  I got a HP ENVY 4500, installed on a laptop with Windows 8.1 and the HP Software scanner worked fine.

  I have recently reinstalled the same laptop but with Windows 10 Pro: the printer works fine but the scanner software HP is not available! I can't use all the features of the printer this way...

  My question is: why the HP scanning software is not available for Windows 10 Pro? I used the original CD.

  Where can I download the (new) 10 Pro software for Windows?

  Please help me solve this problem.

  Kind regards

  Hey @Helen23,

  Welcome to the HP forums! I hope you enjoy your stay here.

  I see that you encounter some problems with the removal of the margins when printing a PDF file on your PC Windows XP of Adobe Reader your urge to 4500. I can help you with that.

  To give us an idea of what the issue may be what we will do is to create a document in Word Pad and see if we can remove the margins before printing. If you can print without margins to Win Pad, then it means that Adobe Reader is something to print on your computer settings. If this is the case then I uninstall all software from 4500 desire on your computer, uninstall Adobe Reader and then reinstall Adobe Reader software and our drivers. You can download our drivers by clicking on this link.

  If you are unable to change the margin settings in Adobe then then I would contact Adobe for support.

  I hope that helps you print your PDF documents and I hope you have a great weekend!

• HP Envy 4500: Mac running El Capitan will not recognize the HP Envy 4500 printer more

  Last week I was able to print to my HP Envy 4500 to my MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, both running El Capitan.  However, when I went to print today, no computer cannot find my printer.

  I tried everything I found on these forums of discussion... the network reset, feeding all turned off, turning off iPv6, etc. anything.

  I have a USB cord used to print today and when I went in the connected USB printer utility, I could select Configure the wireless, but again, make the message: not accessible device.  It notes the wireless network, the settings were downloaded successfully on my device, however, your Mac could not locate the device on the network.   My Mac is both connected to the same wireless network.

  Help!

  Hello

  I restart your Mac and try the above steps again - if it does not prove successful, I then reboot your router and repeat the steps.
