HP OfficeJet Pro 9135e All-in-One Printer

Today I allowed my OfficeJet Pro 9135e printer to update its firmware.

 

I cannot print from my Windows 11 (23H2) laptop after installing firmware version 6.23.5.67-202507241513. Message is "Unable to print. Rendering failed. Print job unable to print. Please check if printer driver is up-to-date and configured correctly."

 

Previous version was 6.23.5.3-202503240855, which worked fine. I suspect the printer itself is OK but the new firmware is bad.

 

Please help me get my printer working again.

Hi @RocketSquirrel,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

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

I understand you are facing a print issue with your HP Officejet Pro 9135e printer. Kindly refer to the steps below:

1. Remove Old Drivers
 

Go to Control Panel → Devices and Printers.

Right-click your HP Officejet Pro 9135e → Remove device.

Open Device Manager → Print queues → uninstall any HP Officejet entries.

Optional: Use Print Management (printmanagement.msc) to delete old drivers.


2. Install Latest HP Software

Download the HP app HP App – For HP Printers, Laptops, and Tech Accessories | HP® Official Site from HP’s support page.

This ensures you get the latest Windows 11-compatible driver package.

Avoid relying on Windows Update’s generic driver—it often breaks after firmware changes.


3. Reset Printer Connection

Re-add the printer via HP Smart or Add Printer in Windows.

Make sure it’s set as the default printer.

Test with a simple text file before trying complex documents.



I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have an amazing day!

More info: I can print from other devices. So now I suspect whatever software got installed on my Win11 PC is the culprit.
