Hi. My HP ENVY 5530 all-in-one printer scanner will no longer connect to the internet. When trying to scan to email or connect to web services it gives the error " Server Connection Error - The printer was unable to connect to the server. Check the internet connection and try again, or set an proxy address"

Hi @Timothy1953,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community. 
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

I suggest that you follow the steps listed below to remove and set up web services:
1. Open the embedded web server (EWS):
a. Find out the IP address or hostname of the printer by pressing the Information button (i) to print an Information page.
NOTE: The printer must be on a network and must have an IP address.
b. In a supported web browser on your computer, type the IP address or hostname assigned to the printer. For example, if the IP address is 123.123.123.123, type the following address into the web browser: http://123.123.123.123.
2. Click the Web Services tab, and then click Remove Web Services in the Web Services Settings section.
3. Click Remove Web Services.
4. Click Yes to remove Web Services from your printer.

5. Click the Web Services tab again.
6. In the Web Services Settings section, click Setup, click Continue and follow the onscreen instructions to accept the terms of use.
7. If prompted, choose to allow the printer to check for and install printer updates.
8. When the printer is connected to the server, the printer prints an information page. Follow the instructions on the information page to finish the setup.

I hope this helps.

Have a nice day ahead.
