HP Color Laser Jet Pro MFP M477fdn Not Connected

[cincybuck]

Hello,

I was having printing issues and decided to uninstall and reinstall the install pack (.exe) and when I did, the install was stuck at 99% for some time and finally errored out. It essentially stated the printer was not connected. At first, I thought the cable was bad and bought a new one, but it didn't work. I then downloaded the new HP app through the MS Store and that app cannot find the printer (yet it is connected w/ USB cable).

I am not sure what to do. I looked on the internet for solutions, but the majority of answers were talking about wireless "network" connections and that is not this (older) setup.

Any suggestions?
