2017 Fujitsu desktop collapsed one months ago.
Not all data salvaged from original kit including HP Envy 4500 installation software.
Printer is connected to the new H/W but the H/W does not recognise the printer, I assume because the set-up software is missing.
I have failed to get the HP Autobot to understand and I need to do some printing.
Anybody got any advice for me?

Hi@A9T80B,
Welcome to the HP Support Community! I'd like to help!
I see you are experiencing issues with the HP ENVY 4500 E-All-In-One Printer.
I have a few recommendations
- To set up a printer for the first time then click this link https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03745931
- Open the control panel from the Start menu or right-click on the Windows button to add the HP Envy 4500 Printer to the Windows laptop. Choose Printers and Devices. Then choose to Add a Printer button to the top of the window. Select your HP Envy 4500 Printer from the list, and it takes one minute to show up.
- For printer software click this link https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-envy-4500-e-all-in-one-printer-series/5304875/mo...
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
