Fatal error in setting up wireless all-in-one printer

Officejet J6480. Win7 "Fatal error". Solution Center will not start. Missing HP Digital Imaging file.
I had to uninstall HP printer software using MS "uninstall program" feature. Product did not completely uninstall. I tried reinstalling but that did not work. I have done the following;
1-used Revo uninstaller
2-used cc Cleaner srubber
3-contacted hp-worthless tech
Contacted Geek Squad-no help
4-used all utilities on hp website
5-Pull my hair out. LOL
The forum is my last hope before wiping my drive and staring over.

Is there a specific number associated with the Fatal Error?

Fatal error installation code 1603 for all-in-one printer C4280

Until a month ago, I'd been successfully running my C4280 with my Dell 1535 (Windows 7 32-bit) for about a year. (It's not a new printer but it works perfectly well; it was a hand-me-down after my own HP printer died after many, many years of good service.) I uninstalled the software because the Solution Center stopped working, cleaned up my registry, deleted temp files, ran Uninstall L_3, installed Windows updates, installed Malwarebytes, checked the condition of my .NET Framework, etc., etc. I have literally spent about a month trying to get the printer software to install to no avail. I have been in every forum on the internet, tried every solution posted here or on the Micsrosoft website. I have read about the incompatibiltiy between HP and Win 7 and cannot find a solution. I don't know what else to do.
The only thing I have not done--and will not do--is to reinstall Windows, the last solution suggested by all the HP reps when all other solutions fail. What does it say about a tech-based company who's solution is to throw the baby out with the bathwater?
Pretty pathetic that one would have to chuck out a perfectly good printer because the software will not install. If anyone has any viable suggestions--other than rolling back the system to an earlier version or re-installing Windows--I'd LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to hear it. If I'm forced to buy a new printer because I could not install the driver, I vow never to buy another HP product as long as I walk the earth.
Here's the log info:

Hi BunnyVonBunny,
I appreciate your efforts thus far and I understand how frustrating this has been. Please complete the steps in the following document; Fatal Error 'Error 1603. A fatal error occurred during installation' (MSI Error 1603) Displays Durin....
Some of these steps maybe the same as what I have already suggested but doing them in the order the document suggests could be what it takes to resolve the issue.

HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless all-in-one printer

Just bought second-hand HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless all-in-one printer. Have no clue how to get it working. I plugged it in and it seems to be operational, but when trying to print, it did not work. Have an HP Pavilion laptop with Windows 8.1. Can anyone help me?

Hi @trudi39 , and welcome to the HP Forums!
I can see from your post you are experiencing print issues. I would like to help!
Do you receive any errors?
Does it print a blank page, or nothing at all?
Are you connected via wireless, ethernet or a USB cable?
In the meantime, I would recommend downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

I am unable to scan using the hp office jet pro 8500 wireless all in one printer from an I-MAC

I have a new I-MAC OS Lion computer and an older HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless all-in-one printer, scanner, fax, photo. I cannot scan, though I can print and I can fax. The error message says I must be connected to the network, and yet I am connected. The only diagnostic tool available is for MS systems only. Help???

Hi,
Make sure to use any scan method available for Lion.
If you have the HP Scan application installed, be aware that the used software version is not intended for Lion.
Please follow the steps below to find what scan methods may be used on the OS:

If there is still any problem while trying to scan, also make sure to install the latest HP Printer Driver 2.9 by clicking the Apple icon and then Software Update.

Printing problem - HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer, Red color fads on 4th copy

I have an HP HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer, and am trying to print 75 copies of a program for our event. After the first 5-6 pages the RED in my program starts to turn magenta. I have brand new HP ink, and am printing on HP Color Injet Paper. I have renectly replaced the Black/Yellow printhead (at least 6 months ago). At first when I cleaned the printheads, I could print 2 or 3 pages showing my RED color. Then turns back to magenta. When I received the test patterns after cleaning the print heads they are all perfect with no lines.
What is going on and how can I fix it?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi TM1997,
I understand you have an Officejet 8500 Wireless that is not printing red properly, it keeps turning to magenta. I'm sorry to hear this, but I will definitely do my best to help you!
As I'm sure you saw, when replacing the black and yellow printhead, that there are two printheads in the Officejet 8500 and the second one controls the magenta and cyan. I would suggest that you first have a look through this Troubleshooting Print Quality Issues document. You can also manually clean your printhead with the steps in this 'The Following Printhead Appears to be Missing or Damaged' or 'The Following Printhead has a Problem... document.
Hope this helps, have a great day!!

Printing problem - HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - printer head?

I posted this elsewhere, but I think I posted it on the wrong Forum so I am posting it here now. I hope I did not do anything to upset anyone. I am new to this area, please forgive my clumsiness.
I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer. I've had my printer since December 2009 and no problems. I recently bought a new laptop with Windows 7 and had to go online to find the drivers that work for my printer. Windows 7 was not compatible with this printer.
Also recently, I am having a problem with what I think may be the black printer head, but when I run diagnostic on it everything comes back saying it is fine. However the problem still exist. When printing the black color will become faded in some areas and in some lines will not only almost totally fade out, but will almost look italic.
Can you tell me if this is the printer head and does it need replacing or is there another problem?
SondraS

Are you using genuine HP cartridges and not refilled or third-party cartridges?
Print the Print Quality Diagnostic page from the setup menu/print report/ on the printer's front panel
Are there any quality issues with this page?

Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - A909g printhead

The printer has not been 100% for a few weeks. It would align the printhead fine. When printing, it didn't always print everything - one time blues would be missing, another black would be missing. Received a message saying the ink was out of date. Picked up new ink yesterday, installed it and the printer went thru it's normal routine - cleaning and aligning. It would print the page which was not good and then realign again.
I read up on how to change the printheads. Problem is the printheads are stuck over to the right. I have pressed the * button and done anything else I could find. What do I do now?

Hey @carolinva,
I understand that you're having print quality printhead related issues on your HP Officejet 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer. I would like to work with you today in resolving the issue of not being able to remove your Printheads. Now I understand that you have already tried new cartridges and run the cleaning and aligning on the product to no avail. At this point you have determined that the printheads are defective.
Just so you are aware there are two printheads in your product. There is a Black and Yellow Printhead and a Cyan and Magenta Printhead. Because your quality issue is affecting blues and blacks than both printheads may be defective. The printheads run for about $64.99 a piece plus tax in the United States. Also, there is a chance that you could replace both printheads and the issue not be resolved because it's a hardware failure of your ink system. Therefore, the next step would be to replace the printer. New printers do not use the same ink systems as your Officejet 8500 printer so the Printheads would do you no good if you have to replace your product.
Part Number for HP 940 Black and Yellow Printhead: C4900a
Part Number for HP 940 Magenta and Cyan Printhead: C4901a
I'm going to provide you steps on how to properly remove the printheads in your product. Because your printheads failed to initially move to the left I'm going to have you start by running a power reset.
Step 1: Power Reset:
With your printer powered on, disconnect your power cable.
After 30 seconds, plug your power cable back in to the printer.
Your printer should turn on automatically.
Once the printer returns to the ready state, follow the steps below.

Scanning to Computer, HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All in one Printer A909g

I am unable to scan to computer with Win 8.1 using my HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless all in one Printer A909g. I can scan to email. The system says my drivers and software are up to date. When trying to scan to computer all I get is a blank scan file with no scan number (Scan_Doc0054) as I used to with Vista. In Vista I was able to drive the whole process from my computer. When scanning to email now I have to drive it from my printer as opposed to the computer.
I restarted an old computer running Vista and the 'scan to computer' function is operational. As far as I am aware there are no other functional problems with the printer.
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Hi John046,
I am sorry to hear that did not work for you, I do have some more options for you to try:
Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Clean boot the computer. How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
Disable any antivirus programs. Windows Defender - Turn On or Off in Windows 8.
Disable any firewalls. Disable firewall Windows 8.
Re-install using the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
If that does not resolve your issue, please call our phone support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region. Country-language selector.

Officejet 4500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - G510n & Win 7. Installing since October Last Year.

I have a Toshiba Satellite A665 Laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium OS. Initially I installed the Printer software and Drivers from the product disc, connect via USB during setup as requested and the printer would work fine, until I shut it down at the end of the day. The next day, I get the message that the "Drivers for Officejet 4500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - G510n are missing". This all started last October and continues.   The Network diagnostic tool doesn't see the printer, but the Print & Scan Diagnostic tool identifies it, but then the program stops responding.
I have installed, uninstalled, reinstalled the drivers and software from both the product disc and from hp.com at least 10 times. I have installed the basic setup as well as the full installation. the only thing I can think of is when the printer goes into power saving mode, I lose my wireless connection.

It sounds like your printer IP address might be changing.   Have you run the HP print scan doctor?
hp.com/go/tools --> HP Print and Scan Doctor
This tool will often find issues with printer driver installation.
I don't have a OfficeJet 4500 here, but if there is a wireless button you can push it, get the wireless menu, select IP address.   Does this match the IP Address you find when you select "(Windows Start) --> All Programs --> HP --> HP OfficeJet 4500 --> Update IP Address" from Windows?
If they don't match, use the IP address from the printer and type it into the Update IP Address window. This may help...

Wireless printing with time capsule 1tb and new wireless all in one printer

I am having problems with printing wirelessly from my time capsule 1tb. I currently have a hp 5510v office all in one printer and drivers can not be found to support printing wirelessly however it can print via usb. What I need is help in picking out a new all in one printer that can print wirelessly from time capsule 1tb. Please help

Hi,
my hp photosmart C6180 all in one works flawlessly with it plugged in to my time capsule all functions.
I used to have it set up using it wirelessly from the printer however for some reason after a update (i think) it stopped working & would not print so had to plug in to time capsule.

Receiving a false paper jam error message for a 6310 all in one printer

I have an hp 6310 all in one printer. It is showing a false paper jam error message with no paper in the printer. I have tried all of the fixes that have been suggested on the website as well as on you tube to no avail. Nothing works, I have cleaned all of the parts that have been suggested to clean and reset the printer. I am still receiving the same paper jam message with no paper in the printer. Does anyone have any suggestions to try to fix this printer.

Do you here any clicks or other sounds when the 6310 first starts up?
I'm trying to fix false paper jam error on Sharp Fax/copier,F0-4450.
When researching the problem, found suggestion that a bad solenoid could cause that error.
After completely disassembling the copier found that wasn't the problem.
I here 2 clicks during start up that sounds like gear slipping a tooth, as if something is preventing a shaft from turning.
Back to the drawing board.
UPDATE!!! Took fuser out, turned gears with screwdriver til 81/2x11 paper went thru, lubricated ends of fuser roller with powdered graphite lube.
3 page fax came thru.

Scanning with HP Officejet 6500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - E709n using Windows 7 Pro editition

I have had this printer for many years and it was fully operational only for the first two years of its link to my computer. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software many times with no success. The Printer/Scan doctor does not solve the problem and gives an error HP Twain Scan. The HP Scan Flow Manager also says that software components are missing The printer works fine but the scanner in the solution center always responds with a error code saying installation is incomplete, "reinstall HP Photosmart software that came with the device and try scanning again" . The extended error information is 4,[2,0,80040154), (0,0,0),(3,56,0)] Another computer, my wife's laptop, running Windows 8 was operational until the end of May 2015, and she is also getting this error code with her computer. This has got to be the most annoying all-in-one I have ever used. I have a Canon all in one at work that I have used with the laptop and the all operating features are mindless...it just works. HP software must have compatibility issues either related to operating systems updates or security software. My computer uses AVG, the laptop uses McAffee and beither scanner operates with this printer. I need to get this scanner operational!

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand that you cannot scan with your HP Officejet 6500 wireless printer on Windows 7 and 8. I am happy to look into this issue for you! Some questions for you: Are you able to make copies with the printer from the scanner glass? Loading and Copying 216 x 279 mm (8.5 x 11 inch) Plain Paper. (This way we can verify that the hardware is functional.)Do you see any error messages on the printer's display screen, or blinking lights? In the meantime, please take a look through this scanning guide, An 'HP Cue Scanning Flow component has encountered a problem and needs to be closed' Error Displays for HP Deskjet, Officejet, and Photosmart All-in-Ones.
