HP Envy 15-ep0170ND
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello, I have the HP G2 Docking station 120W and I cannot charge my Envy laptop with it while I am plugged into it. 

What causes this issue? I tried already with a Phone charger to try and charge it via USB C, but sadly I don't have any other USB C charging cables to try. Can anybody give me a solution perhaps?

 

If I need to provide any other things please say I will provide them 🙂

I don't think this is going to work.

It is not the port (which is most likely working correctly else nothing would connect / work) .

It is not the docking station.

 

The power requirements to charge the computer exceed what the USB-C port is able to provide.

The user guide explains that the port can charge small items (watch, phone).
