Hi @Pumpkin70,

Welcome to HP Support Community.  

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

Setting up a printer on Windows 10 involves a few steps. Here's a general guide to help you set up your HP DeskJet 4175e printer on Windows 10.

Unpack and Connect:

• Unpack your printer and make sure all the necessary components are present.
• Connect the printer to a power source and turn it on.
• Connect the printer to your computer using a USB cable or set it up on the same Wi-Fi network.

Download and Install HP Software:

• Visit the official HP support website (https://support.hp.com) and enter your printer model (DeskJet 4175e) to find the drivers and software.
• Download the latest drivers and software for your printer.
• Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions to install the necessary software.

Windows Update:

• Make sure your Windows 10 is up to date. Install any pending updates.
• Sometimes, Windows Update can automatically install the necessary drivers for your printer.

Add Printer:

• Press the Windows key + I to open the Settings menu.
• Go to "Devices" and then select "Printers & scanners" on the left side.
• Click on "Add a printer or scanner" and wait for Windows to detect your printer.
• If your printer is listed, select it and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup.

Manual Installation (if needed):

• If the automatic setup doesn't work, you may need to manually install the printer.
• In the "Printers & scanners" settings, click on "The printer that I want isn't listed."
• Choose "Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings."
• Follow the prompts, and when prompted for the printer driver, point to the location where you installed the HP software.

Test Printing:

• Print a test page to ensure that the printer is set up correctly.

I hope this helps. 
 

Take care and have a good day.
