Hello @Mats_Joha499Vin ,
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
The HP software must be completely uninstalled and removed of the system.
But first download only this complete packages:
- "HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M283cdw/M283fdw Printer Full Software Solution ",
File name: Full_Webpack-44.9.2760-LJM282-M285_UWWL_4_1_Full_Webpack.exe (254.3 MB) - "Readiris Pro 16 for HP ".
File name: Readiris16_5_ProHPWin.zip (384.0 MB)
Next...
- Disconnect printer/scanner from computer- Disable WLAN, WiFi and/or remove the USB or LAN cable.- Do not switch off the printer >> unplug the power cord from the socket!
read Uninstall the HP software, drivers, and apps used with HP printers. - right-click Start, search for "control panel" and open "Programs and Features"
uninstall all HP printer software > via "Programs and Features" - right-click Start, search for "control panel" and open "Devices and Printers"
In the "Devices and Printers" window look for your HP Printer. If you see it listed, right-click on it and choose "Delete" or "Remove Device.” - Restart the PC
- Close all programs
- Reconnect the printer to the power supply and switch it on (if this does not happen automatically)
- Please note: WLAN has to be deactivated!
- Open up the run command with the "Windows Key + R" key combo > in folder Downloads click on "Full_Webpack-44.9.2760-LJM282-M285_UWWL_4_1_Full_Webpack.exe".
- The installation was completed successfully, now you must ...
- Restart the PC again
- Now the installation is complete.
Via USB, means wait until the installation asks to connect the printer/scanner.
Document error messages accurately, even better is to take a screenshot of it and upload here.
If all is running ver well, then install File: Readiris16_5_ProHPWin.zip
At last read here: "Changing from a USB to a Wireless Connection ".
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
