HP ENVY 5644

Bonjour,

Depuis quelques jours mon imprimante HP ENVY 5644 refuse d'imprimer avec un ordinateur mais pas les autres.

J'ai essayé de désinstaller l'application mais un des fichiers refuse de se supprimer car il serait "ouvert dans un autre programme".

J'ai tout de même essayé de réinstaller l'application mais un élément bloque l'installation et ce message s'affiche :

"The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that is not available. Insert the 'Logiciel de base priphérique HP ENVY 5640 series' disk and click OK."

Il semblerait qu'il me manque ce logiciel mais où le trouver ?? J'ai déjà téléchargé tous les logiciels et pilotes trouvés sur le site d'HP mais rien ne marche... 🙄

 

Merci d'avance pour votre aide !

Hello,
My printer hasn't been working with my PC for a few days, but it does work with the other computer.
I have tried to uninstall the app but one of the files refuses to be erased because it'd be "opened in another program"
I have tried to reinstall the app but something prevents it from being installed and this message appears :

"The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that is not available. Insert the 'Peripheral base software HP ENVY 5640 series' disk and click OK."

It seems that there's a software missing but where is it to be found ? I have already downloaded every softwares and printer drivers that could be found on the HP website but nothing works...
Thank you for your help !

Hi @AM73

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you with the printing issue.

 

Download and install HP Print and Scan Doctor, it is a Windows tool to fix printer issues. 

 

If the issue still persists, try re-installing the printer driver -

 

1. In the search box, type and open "Uninstall a Program".

2. Look for HP Printer software.

3. Right-click to uninstall.

4. In the search box, type and open “Devices and printers”.

5. In the Devices and Printers, look for your HP printer. If you see it listed right-click on it and choose “Delete” or “Remove Device”.

6. Open the run command with the "Windows key + R" key combo. 

7. Type printui.exe /s and click Ok. (Note: there is a space in between “printui.exe” and “/s”).

8. Click on the "Drivers" tab.

9. Look for HP Printer driver. If you see it Click on it and click “Remove” at the bottom.

10. Select Ok.

11. Select Apply and Ok on the Print Server Properties windows.

12. Close Devices and Printers Once the software and drivers are removed.

13. Restart the computer.

14. Download and install the software and drivers from here.

15. Click on the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions. 

  

Hope this helps! Keep me posted. 

 

Please click “Accept as Solution” if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others find the solution.

Click the “Kudos, Thumbs Up" on the bottom right to say “Thanks” for helping!

 

Have a great day!

Hello @Asmita6658,

I have followed the instructions you gave me, however it hasn't worked. During step 5, when I was asked to remove my HP device, the same message as previously mentioned appears :

"The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that is not available. Insert the 'Peripheral base software HP ENVY 5640 series' disk and click OK."

Yet, I have tried to follow the next steps and I have the same message repeating again, at the bottom of which is written "Use source" and a blank to fill with "Browse" on the right.

The removal and the downloading both failed because of the missing file.

P.S. I don't have a CD-ROM on my PC.

 

Thank for your help !!
