I have tried numerous times to install the drivers and software. Downloaded from your site and run as admin. I run the setup and it fails after the 1 of 6 things it has to install.
Just now it downloaded the HP print and scan doctor Verson 5.3.1. I tired installing it that way and it also failed.
I have also tried going thru control panel and installing the printer from letting windows 10 detect my printer then letting it install the drivers. Please help. This has never been an issue.
