HP Officejet 4500: The elimination of an old printer

I want to get rid of this printer, but afraid that someone might collect personal information. Is there a memory of what I have printed or digitized? If so, how can I delete it?

Hello

Thank you for using the HP forum.

You can reset it to the factory settings, which should erase from memory (even if it doesn't have any hard disk)

You can check this post;

  • HP OfficeJet 4500: Avery Template 5434 does not print

    This morning I tried to print from my HP OfficeJet 4500 of the averytemplate 5434 and will not work.  Printing sounds and acts like it is printing, but when it comes out it is empty.  I printed from other models, even regular and excel docs, and they worked.  I even tried restarting the computer and the printer and it still doesn't work.  I'm totally stumped!

    @MaryMar

    Rats.

    Model of the beast.

    Model is really just a table - should be a "piece of cake".

    Right.

    The model of 5434, at least on my system (Windows 10 Pro) and using the Avery software, works as long as I was able to create a test and then print the contents of the bag on plain paper.

    I just watched this model on the Avery website - it is a sheet of 4 X 6 inches?  Well...

    Try the media type setting to "Photo paper" in this case - maybe it will work.

    Search for 'other photo papers' media, everything is allowed in combination with paper 4 X 6 inches.

    To check, set printing preferences - if the combination is not allowed, you will see a small triangle yellow next to the selection when you try to adjust the settings.

    Good luck!

  • Cartridge, HP 920 XL: Wireless HP Officejet 6000, the problem of black ink printer

    I have a HP Officejet 6000 wireless printer.  It's 2nd HP 920 XL cartridge that has not worked.  It does not show that it is empty, but it will not be printed.  Our school cannot afford to replace these at this rate.  Please let me know what to do to make this work correctly.

    I removed the printer as my default so that I could use another printer.  When I ran the program again to check for problems, the guest asked me to add the printer returned as default.   When I reconnected it the printer as long as my default, I tested the printer and it worked.  Don't know why remove and then add back in the set, but he did.

  • OfficeJet 4500 G510n: installation all-in-one printer

    The first step in installation is to click on 'Install', but the only option is "Exit". What Miss me?

    Tim,

    I'm not familiar with this error, or use Webroot security software.

    It sounds as if something is locked up - or blocked.

    The State of the printer is constantly changing: wireless status, entry and work completion, changes in the availability of the Internet (for ePrint), enters the State of ink.  The computer must have the permission and access of / to the printer to provide updates to the software of the printer.

    You may need to take a look at your Webroot security settings - and newspapers.

    If the system is aware of any issue, the Event Viewer logs may have made note of it.  The trick is to find and understand the data.

    Assuming that you don't find anything abnormal, only, you will need to restart all - this time this includes the router because it is one of the places where things tend to lock in new facilities.    If your router provides logging features good, you might be able to track all errors.

  • OfficeJet 4500 g - m: all-in-one printer not scanning

    Hello

    My scanner don't scan IE I scan a document into the computer. Says no scan options refer to device documentation to troubleshoot.

    Have been to the help of hp but not always good page, unfortunately.

    Thanks for any help

    Hi @big-x and welcome to the Forums of HP!

    I see that you are having problems of scanning. I'd be happy to help you!

    Before we begin, I have a few questions.

    Are you connected wirelessly or via USB?

    You have problems, make a copy?

    I would first suggest off your computer and perform a power reset the printer.  Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

    I would say then download and performs the scan of the HP Print and Scan Doctor.

    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  • HP Officejet 4500 G510n - z WiFi: double-sided printing

    The printer above results unexpected when printing duplex (manual) option

    He greatly prints on both sides, but: -.

    Odd pages are printed first, followed by the even pages.

    This translates into the even pages on the top.

    For a 6 page document, this gives Pages 2/1(on top), 4/3, 6/5 (below).

    Certainly it is easy to place a small number of pages in the order correct, but very annoying for a large number of pages

    If the same pages were printed initially followed the odd pages no need to reorganize leaves - they would already be in the right order.

    Double-sided for this printer options are POWER off and MANUAL.

    Please notify.

    I've carried out your instructions, but I still get the same options of Driver as before.

  • HP Officejet 4500 - G510n wireless all-in-one printer

    I pushed a few wrong buttons and have spent hours trying to get things back where they were.  I finally installed new drivers, but now a facsimile screen whenever I want to print!  I rarely use the fax and I would like that the screen go away.  How can I solve this problem?

    In addition, even if I installed new drivers, my printer says my device app error message install is incomplete and I go to the windows store.  I received my new drivers directly from HP... don't should not go far intant?

    Also, printing was erratic.  The last time that I tried I had a feeling it was slow, but I always had to deal with the annoying fax screen.  Help, please!

  • OfficeJet 4500 G510n-z hangs up during installation or has missing file

    I have recently upgraded your older desktop for Windows 7-64 bit.   Everything works great except that I can't get my HP Officejet 4500 G510n-z everything-in-one-printer to install.

    I loaded the software before when the machine was working under Windows XP.  I recently bought a laptop and used the same CD software to install printer on this unit with no problems.  When I insert the CD and AutoPlay starts the Setup program seems 1) hang up in the step of verification system, or 2) declare that a file is missing (I don't know which) and then stops.  I tried to uninstall the software, tried to uninstall using Uninstall_L3.bat and restart the PC, to no avail.  I don't know what else to try.  Technical support costs, I could probably buy another printer.

    I tried to remove completely all the HP software from the office refurbished, but now I can't find the Util / CCC folder.

    How can I remove completely any / all traces of the HP from the desktop software?  Still working?

    My printer was working fine until I needed to upgrade the operating system to Windows 7-64 bit.

  • Used to install the HP Officejet 4500 software

    I am trying to install the software for the HP Officejet 4500 that came with the printer, etc. but it will not install correctly. My copmputer has windows vista 32 bit.

    First the software would not install. I received the message toolbox.cab is corrupt and fatal mistake. I also got the message the installation package could not be open contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package

    Impossible to install the software I then plugged the printer etc in the computer with a USB cable and a Windows driver installed making the printer minimally usable without the HP software etc.

    Then I tried to install the HP software this time the software installed somewhat but strict install the Hp Image instrument functions. Also, I got the only e Hem 2 imaging HelpDir tp software key message: setup\tray Ap could not write value.

    I then downloaded the HP diagnostic software and there was the following messages

    Could not write value Def Lang Abbrev in key\signature; RegLocator; lnilocator; comploatator

    Problem with registration of the device

    Some components of the HP away problem with HP Digital Imaging Monitor software

    Problem with front panel software detection

    Cannot find HP solution center application needed to scan.

    Software diagnostic said to uninstall the HP officejet software and reinstall it but Im guessing that will do no good and am worried if I do that it will make the printer unusable etc. without pilot etc..

    I am able to scan a bit using old scanning software that came from my old scanner and am able to print some with the windows driver but worry that I won't be able to fax to not use all of the computer to the printer without the HP software, OCR software, am not able to scan directly from the printer etc and do not use the HP scanning software (do not know what are the characteristics that they lack that old software to scan my old scanner has)

  • Failure of the scanner, HP Officejet 4500 G510g-m

    Hello

    I have a HP Officejet 4500 device that cannot do anything requiring the scanner to work, including scanning, copying and faxing. The display shows meanings cannot be made due to a "Scanner failure".

    I tried troubleshooting (resettings the device and others) and they did not help. Here are the details:

    When I turn on the camera I have here a few mechanical noises (which is natural, it movesthe cartridges and all that) and then, at the end of the power process, the scanner lamp turns on and is moved one inch to the left along the surface scan (below it, in fact), then returns to its place in the extreme right and the error message is displayed.

    Device: HP Officejet 4500 G - 501g - m

    Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), even with Windows 7 64 bit.

    Error message: "failed to scan. Unable to scan, copy or send a fax. Press OK. »

    No changes were made to the computer or the device, just, it began to arrive one day, a few months after the purchase of the unit.

    What can I do to fix this?

    Hello yonyz

    It looks like the printer may need maintenance. It must always be in warranty if its only a few months old. If you follow the link below, you can contact HP.
