HP OfficeJet Pro 8130E - Silent switches for these installation packages.

[75HB]

I am working with my software delivery team for my company and we need to package these (see below) executables to install in our environment and for that we need silent switches for these executables.

The packages are for the  HP OfficeJet Pro 8130E:

• SUPD-V4-X64-4.01.2.2972
• Full_Webpack-51.10.6100-SJ0001_Full_Webpack

Is there a way to find the silent switches for these?

** /s has been used to try it in silent mode but not working.

Hi @75HB,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

To install HP software packages silently, you generally need to use specific command-line switches. These can vary depending on the installer type. Here are some steps and general switches you can try for the HP OfficeJet Pro 8130E installation packages.

SUPD-V4-X64-4.01.2.2972

This appears to be a driver package. Silent installation for drivers typically uses standard command-line switches. Here are some common ones to try:

• /silent
• /quiet
• /norestart
• /qn (for MSI-based installers)

Full_Webpack-51.10.6100-SJ0001_Full_Webpack

This appears to be a full software package. Silent installation for these packages may require different switches depending on the installer type (InstallShield, MSI, etc.). Here are some common methods:

Using setup.exe or install.exe

InstallShield Installers:

• /s or /silent
• /v"/qn"

setup.exe /s /v"/qn"

MSI Installers:

• /quiet
• /qn
• /norestart

msiexec /i setup.msi /qn /norestart

General Tips:

• Check the Documentation: The installer packages might come with documentation or a README file that specifies the command-line options.
• Extract the Installer: Sometimes, running the installer with a /extract switch can extract the contents, and you might find an MSI package or additional documentation inside.
• Try /? or /help: Running the installer executable with /help or /? may provide a list of available command-line options.

Example Commands:

For SUPD-V4-X64-4.01.2.2972:

SUPD-V4-X64-4.01.2.2972.exe /silent /norestart

For Full_Webpack-51.10.6100-SJ0001_Full_Webpack:

Full_Webpack-51.10.6100-SJ0001_Full_Webpack.exe /s /v"/qn"

If these switches don't work, you can try to find more detailed options using these methods.

1. Check the extracted files for an MSI installer: Sometimes the executable contains an MSI installer that can be directly used with msiexec.
2. Run the installer with logging: This can provide insights into what switches might be needed.

setup.exe /l*v install.log

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.

So they have tried all of those switches and it still will not run in silent mode. Is there a trick to running them?

I tried calling, no one knew what I was asking about running the drivers in silent mode.

is there a way to get the parameters for each of these executables? 

[75HB]

Is there a way to get an .MSI version of the drivers, or one that does not need user interaction?  

I can't believe I would be the first to ask this.

Hello, is there any HP vendor support for large companies? I tried calling the support# that was emailed to me, but no one wanted to help, just kept passing me to another group and then hung up.
