Officejet Pro 6978
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Can't install the Basic Driver 64 bits of OJ 6978 into one of my desktop computer. The error code is 2753. 

 

Where can I find the scrubber to delete all the printer driver files from the computer and to reinstall the driver?

 

Thanks

@SamUC2020,

Thank you for reaching HP Community. I would be happy to help!

 

Make sure your computer us up to date.

 

I recommend you delete the driver at the root level and Install the drivers, follow the steps below:

 

Remove the USB if connected

 

1.) In Windows, search for and open Programs and features 

2.) Select your HP Printer 

3.) Select Uninstall 

4.) In Windows, search for and open Devices and printers 

5.) In the Devices and Printers windows look for your HP printer. If you see it listed right-click on it and choose `Delete' or `Remove Device' 

6.) Open up 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
