Printer cable for hp envy 4500

I just bought this printer. I was originally looking for a printer to be wired but everything out there seems to be wireless. I have no wireless in my office. I understand that I can connect this to my laptop with a cord. What kind of cord am I looking for.  The port on the back of the printer next to the power port is a small square like shape. Is the other end a USB connection? what is this cord called so I know what to order.

Dear ssmith1,
You have to buy a USB 2.0 high speed less than 2 meters.
I hope you find it helpful.

     Hi chefcorbin,
    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I understand that you would like to learn how to change the printer preferences using your Chromebook.
    I have included a link to Google support on printing a page with Chrome and it lists the print settings that you can adjust.

  • Unable to communicate with printer error with HP Envy 4500

    Hi I am having trouble printing with my Envy 4500 printer. My computer system is Windows 8.1. I installed the driver per instruction from the website and use the usb cable to connect the printer. However when I tried to print a pdf document it says "Unable to communicate with printer" and I can't get the test page to print either. Please help! Thanks in advance! 

    Hi @Casey_Z , and welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see you're having issues printing.  I would like to help!
    I'd recommend removing the ink cartridges, and performing a power reset.  Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
    I'd then suggest 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!

  • HP Envy 4500 printing issue

    I am unable to print to my HP ENVY 4500 with a wireless connection. I have had it set up and working since Christmas, it says it is connected to my home network with excellent signal strenght and both laptop and desktop recognize it. Jobs go to the printer que but the I get and error printer offline message. I have ran the HP scan doctor program that came with the printer and it keeps sending me to wireless set up page.
    **Intersting note is when I select the printer from my desktop control panel ( there is a green check mark and it says it is ready) and look at properties there is no IP address under the location setting.

  • Can't install HP Envy 4500 on my computer

    I had my HP Envy 4500 all-in-one set up correctly, and had been using it for months. Just a couple days ago, it stopped printing and I'd get the error message it was 'offline.' This had happened before. I would just disconnect it from bluetooth/wireless and reconnect using the buttons on the printer. That always worked. It didn't this time.
    I finally tried uninstalling and re-installing multiple times. The uninstall was successful - but now I can't reinstall. I haven't been able to install via web, nor using the CD-Rom that came with the printer. I finally added it through my "Add Devices and Printer" option on my computer (now the printer appears as "HP Envy 4500 Series Class Driver" "HP Envy 4500 (network)"), so it now can print wirelessly, but now won't scan because the driver is no longer installed on my computer. I have no idea what to do...
    My OS is Windows 8, and I've done all the usual updates. I've been getting the warning that this printer will only work on a Windows XP, Vista or 7 OS, but it wouldn't make sense that I've been able to use the printer on the same computer up until now. Please help!

    Hi @hellodupree,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that you cannot install your HP Envy 4500 on your Windows 8 computer, and I am happy to help!
    Just a couple of questions for you. What happens when you try to install the driver? Does it disappear? Are there any error messages?
    Also can you make copies with the printer? Just to make sure the hardware is functional.
    In the meantime, I would recommend to go through this guide, 'Unable to find printer' Error Message Displays on the Computer During a Wireless Network Installati....
    There are full feature software and drivers available for the Windows 8 Operating System, so it is definitely compatible!
    Hope this guide will help, and hope to hear from you soon!

  • Envy 4500 and Windows 10

    When Windows 10 came out, I upgraded it.  Everything worked fine except for the printer.  The scanner worked fine.  I called HP technical support and they could not solve the problem.  Is the problem that the driver is not compatible to Windows 10?  If this is the case is there any time frame on when this may be fixed.  I had to revert back to Windows 7 because the printing is essential for me, and I love my envy 4500. Please let me know what you all think.

    Hello , I was able to find a Windows 10 driver for your Envy 4500. You could try the download page first; HP ENVY 4500 e-All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Drivers. If it doesn't work, you could try this direct download link.  Please let me know if any of these steps resolved your issue, or if there is anything else I can do to help.  I look forward to hearing from you! Thanks,

  • Laptop and printer connection for printing

    I have had this printer connected to my laptop for over a year now and have never had any proble,s printing until now. My printer and laptop are connected to my wifi and my printer app says that my printer is online and I've downloaded the software needed for the printer on my laptop, but when I try to print something it tells me to check my printers internet connection over and over with everything I try to do. When I disconnect and reconnect my printer to the internet it says the connection is Excelent so I try tp print agian and it still says that the printer is offline when it's not, isn't connected to my wifi when it is, and other things like that. Can anyone help me fix this problem so I can print again? I've tried everything I can for hours and I've gotten no where. I've also reconnected the wifi to my laptop aswell and reset my router but I still have the same problem and I don't know what to do to fix it. Please help me!!

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I noticed that you cannot print with your HP Envy 4500, on Windows 8.1 using a wireless connection. I am happy to look into this printing issue for you!  A question for you, are you able to print a test page? Video: Printing a Test Page. In the meantime, please try the steps within the following guides:  'Offline' Printer Status Message Displays (Windows 8).Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection. Tips for troubleshooting wireless connection issues
    The following tips can help you troubleshoot and avoid wireless connectivity issues. You can try these tips separately or in combination to get a successful wireless signal. Move the printer and the computer closer to the router, but no closer than 6 ft (1.8 m). Wireless signals can be weaker at greater distances between the printer and the router.If you are experiencing an intermittent wireless connection, try restarting your router. Consult your router manufacturer, Internet service provider, or network administrator for instructions on how to restart the router.Remove any metal objects between the printer, the computer, and the router. Objects such as refrigerators, microwaves, or metal bookcases can interfere with wireless transmission.Move any device that emits radio signals, such as microwaves and cordless telephones, farther away from the printer. Such devices can interfere with wireless signals. You will also want to make sure that your router is only broadcasting at 2.4 ghz and not switching between 5 ghz.  Hope these guides, and information is helpful!  “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

  • HP Envy 4500 wireless will not print without USB cable

    My HP Envy 4500 wireless printer/scan/copier does not seem to be able to work without the USB cable.  I followed the instructions provided to change for USB to wireless but it will not work without.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software.  I have windows 7 on my laptop and an IPod both of which show that the printer is showing.  I made it the default printer.   The first time I tried to do it (without the USB cord) I was unable to get passed putting in my wireless password which starts with a capital K and wasn't certain how to make a capital so reread instructions and used the USB but really want to use it wireless.  Any suggestions.  I turned the firewall off this morning to try but to no avail.  If I do need to turn the firewall off would I then put it back on if it gets working?  I would so appreciate any suggestions!

    @Chaitaishanwelcome to the community,
    I understand you're having some difficulties when trying to set your Envy 4500 up on your wireless network. I have looked around and found this guide for you to try out.
