Somehow the hostname in printer got corrupted so couldn't print. 

Didn't have the admin password so had to perform a complete reset on the printer.

Once I had reconfigured the network on the printer I had to remove the software from my computer.

Since then I have spent 4 days attempting to reinstall the full feature driver.

I have used every resource available to try and resolve the software install.

So far nothing works. I'm at the point now where I get a "unable to find core driver package" error when I try to install the printer.

Any idea's? I've followed every "remove/install" process I could find. HP Print and Scan Doctor doesn't help. Neither does basic install procedures thru Microsoft.

Need help please.

Thanks.

Well after reinstalling Windows 10 all is well. Took less time to reload after the reinstall than I had wasted trying to fix the error. Printer is now installed and all apps etc. are working. No further help is needed. Thanks.
