Photosmart Premium C309-g: the drivers and the printer software will not be installed.

My network all-in-one Photosmart Premium C309-g worked very well on my desk until recently, when suddenly the HP software could still see and connect to the printer, but Windows 10 could not. I tried to remove the printer and uninstall all associated software, then tried to reinstall the software. Unfortunately, the installation will not get to the point where it starts and then suddenly disappears with no trace of her still running in the background. I can deviate from the default installation and bring to the top of the page to select the components that I want to install, but when I do the button 'ok' on this page does not work. No matter how many times I click on it, the page remains open and the installation will not so fast. If I click Cancel on this page, it disappears and the installation back to the previous page, where I can choose to continue and happen almost immediately out of sight again. This happens whenever I try to install selected software and drivers. I deleted the printer from the devices page in the Panel, I made sure to this it is not is more listed in the Manager of peripheral devices (printers and imaging devices), I removed the Windows 10 print queue and I deleted all the data of the folder under the Program Files (x 86) HP folder on my hard drive. I also disabled Windows Defender and run the installer as administrator, yet none of these steps help the process at all. I have never, in my 20 + years using nothing other than printers HP, encountered a problem like this. I'm used to receive error messages during the installation of software to fail, but I have never had a process simply disappear from the computer without leaving any trace of never having run. I hope that someone out there has an idea, that I have not thought yet, transferring files to my tablet to print from becomes a pain in the rear.

A man who took the freedom of another man is a prisoner of hatred, he is locked behind bars of prejudices and narrow-mindedness. I am not truly free if I take freedom away from someone else, as surely as I am not free when my freedom is taken from me. The oppressed and the oppressor similar are stripped of their humanity.

Welcome to the HP Forums @GarfieldFan1969,

I understand the printing software will not fully installed for your Photosmart C309 on your system Windows 10, and I wanted to answer with my suggestions for trying to help! Here are my suggestions for you to try. When you are finished, please let me know the results and problems or errors that you may encounter!

First step: clean boot, restart the PC and try the install again.

1. start by typing "msconfig" in the search box of Cortana, and then click MSConfig (run command)
On your keyboard press Windows + R key at same time and type Msconfig in the run window, and then click OK or press ENTER.

2. now, choose Selective startup

3. Remove the check of the Load Startup items

4. click on the Services tab

5. check "hide all Microsoft Services" and then click on disable all

6. click apply , then OK

7 restart the PC and temporarily disable firewalls or antivirus programs

8 run the Installation Wizard for Windows HP printer to install the printer

9 turn on the firewall and start services

Second step: you unregister and re-register the Windows Installer Service:

1. hold down the Windows key + R to fill the box "Run" and type cmd.exe, and then click OK.
2. at the command prompt, type msiexec /Unregister , and then press ENTER.
3. at the command prompt, type msiexec/regserver, and then press ENTER.
4. at the command prompt, type exit and press ENTER to close the command prompt.
5. run the Wizard for Windows HP printer installation

Step 3: run System File Checker Scan (up to 3 times) to repair the corrupted system files:
1. go to start
2. type CMD
3 right-click and run as administrator
4. to check and repair the OS type sfc/scannow (note the space between sfc and ' / ')

You may need to run this upward to 3 times to solve all the problems

When finished, it will say one of three things
Windows did not find any breach of integrity (a good thing)
Windows resource protection found corrupt files and repair the (good)
Windows resource protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some (or all) of them (not a good thing)

Try to reinstall the printer.

Step 4: activate the built-in Windows administrator account

source

1. first of all, you'll need to open an administrator mode command prompt by right-clicking and choosing "run as Administrator" (or use the shortcut Ctrl + Shift + Enter in the search box).

Note that it works the same in all versions of Windows. It just search for cmd and then do a right-click on the icon of the command prompt in the start menu or the boot screen.

2. If you are in Windows 8.x or 10 you can click on the Start button and choose to open a command prompt in this way.

3. now type the following command:

NET user administrator / Active: Yes

4. you should see a message that the command completed successfully. Log out, and you will now see the administrator as a choice account.

(Note that this screenshot is for Vista, but it works on Windows 7 and Windows 8 and Windows 10)

You will notice that there is no password for this account, so if you want to leave it enabled, you must change the password.

Try to reinstall the printer.

    Help... I bought the Windows Anytime Upgrade on Microsoft Office software to my Vista laptop, but the software will not be installed. Operation message is not supported on this platform. How to get around the facility? I have the product key number, but can not get so far to enter.

    I think that you bought the right product. Updates at any time are for the upgrade edition of Windows 7 to a more expensive edition. This isn't what you need to upgrade a Vista system to Windows 7. While Vista upgrades are no longer available from the Microsoft Store.

    I suggest that you return to the Microsoft Store site and use the contact methods to discuss your problem with an agent.

  • HP Photosmart Premium C309a: uninstalled the driver, but can't re install even on HP C309a

    My device cannot scan and there is an error (could not insert the screenshot error). As recommended, I did uninstall the driver and appeared to be successful. But re - install is the problem here, first I downloaded the race online, saved, driver (PS_410_C309a_Net_enu_140_047) & files were extracted. From the beginning, it seemed ok, but he continue recyling process of installation from the beginning until the re - start the computer. After the re - start has finished he will repeat the same process and it will eventually re - start the computer again, and there is no end here, I guess.  It's very frustrating.  I tried stuffs as suggested in the forum, such as the execution of net user administrator / Active: Yes, but nothing helped. Also, I tried using journaling to change user, the unsuccessful outcome. Help, please

    Hi Davies22,

    There is something in the laptop Toshiba, the origin of the problem, you see, and because the printer works fine on other computers, you will need to contact Toshiba support for the issues you have on the laptop. The only other option you have is to back up your data on this laptop and then run a full system restore which will put the cell phone to the way it was when you bought it all first.

  • 5610 cannot clear the print queue, will not print

    Windows 7

    Works very well, then work has been "caught" in the queue. I can't print and I can't delete the job.

    Windows troubleshooting tool said he found a print job in the queue that prevents other print jobs and that fixed the problem, but it has not fixed the problem. If I run againî, I get the same message. Diagnosis seems correct, but just what he thinks he's doing to solve the problem does not work.

    I tried the printer doctor, but even if she sees the printer it does not move to fashion, we're going to fix things.

    Manually, I went to "Cancel all Documets" but that the command was not enabled even if the printer displays the items in its queue.

    I went on the ' record of spooling "in the System 32 directory and it was empty.

    Thanks for your reply. I had who tried once or twice before posting and it has not fixed the problem.

    What I didn't know (and did not appear in the online resources I checked) that the document was in the C:\Windows\System32\spool\PRINTERS directory on ANOTHER computer - hosting the network printer.  Once I found that crime files it I deleted the manually and solved the problem.

  • Documents in the print queue will not cancel or print

    I tried all the usual cancel, delete, turn off the PC, turn the printer off, turn them both off the coast of all etc.

    Do or not.  There is no test.

    These directions will not work with Windows XP, but it's the right idea.

    She also leaves a file .cmd lingering somewhere on your system.

    I propose the following technique that works for all versions of Windows and will not let any .cmd persistent or other files on your system:

    First to clear the print queue, you have to stop the print spooler service, and then remove all the jobs/print files pending.
        
    You cannot delete all print jobs in queue so that the Print Spooler Service is running, so you have to stop first.
            
    To stop the Print Spooler Service, click Start, run and enter in the box:
            
    services.msc
            
    Click OK to open the Services Applet.
            
    Locate the Print Spooler Service, right click and choose 'Properties' and then click on the "Stop" button to stop the Print Spooler Service is running.
        
    The option "Startup Type" of Service properties print spooler is usually set to "Automatic" (which is now a good time to check it out).
        
    If the "Startup type" is not set to "Automatic", set the "Startup Type" field to "Automatic" If that is your desire (which now is the time to check it out).

    Do not try to start or restart the Print Spooler Service again...
        
    Next. remove all updates pending upward and forward to printing from XP.  If they do not print before, you will need to send them to the printer again once things are cleaned in service yet.
        
    Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the following folder (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):
        
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS
            
    Delete all the print jobs in queue (select and delete all the files) in the folder if the folder is without waiting for print jobs.  The folder must be empty when you are finished.
            
    Reboot your system and check the Print Spooler Service again to make sure the Print Spooler Service restarts automatically restart (given that the startup type is set to automatic).
        
    After the reboot, check again the spooler service for printing and the 'Status' column for the print spooler must be read "started."

    Submit new failure of print jobs.

  • The print queue will not empty the first task he accepts to print.

    I have a PC with XP operating system and a HP Officejet 6500 E709a.

    On there are 5 or 6 days, I had a set of updates to Microsoft for various things, which, as usual, has been installed.

    Since the printer has stopped catalogue mid and holding the paper for about 3 minutes before he spits unfinished.

    The job remains in the queue and will not itself should be deleted, so I can not print anything else.

    If I reboot I get sometimes to print a page, but this work is still in the queue until I restart.

    I uninstalled the software and reinstalled the software from the HP using (OJ6500vE709_Full_14.exe) website.
