HP Officejet 6500 Drahtloser All-in-One-Printer- E709n
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,
i have tried to reinstall the driver for the HP Officejet 6500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - E709n (CB057A) on my Zbook (ZBook 15v G5) after scanning stopped working

 

I have tried everything in the meantime, working through the complete HP help (which appeared on the desktop after the installation error) including reinstalling Windows Installer, disabling all Windows services at startup (in msconfig), disabling the Antivirus system, etc. Several times I also tried to uninstall everything with the "Utility for removing HP Officejet software and drivers" (Scrubber) and restart the installation, without success.
I don't know what else to try, since I have installed the exact same driver on two similar PCs (both Windows 10 64 Bit Pro, latest updates, build 1909, no HP PCs) and had no problems.

 

System/network setup: all PCs Windows 10 (with latest updates, build 1909) all PCs connected via LAN, Printer also connected via LAN
The printer is also detected during the installation without any problems. A "fatal error" occurs at the very end of the installation.

 

I also tried this similar troubleshooting: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printers-Archive-Read-Only/Officejet-6500-E709A-Fatal-error-during-ins...

 

Maybe someone has an idea what else I can try?

Maybe...

 

If you want something to try that takes care of itself:

The normal uninstall - and maybe even "not so normal" uninstall procedure - might leave "something" behind.

Run through the following "Check / Remove" options and remove any left over bits of software.

 

Preparation / Information

 

 

Windows Updates

Before you install / reinstall printer software, do check and run Windows Updates.  Even if Windows Updates appears to have caused trouble in the past, it is always possible rerunning Updates again can resolve odd issues (for example, printer not recognized).

 

Create Restore Point

Before making any changes to your system, always create a Restore Point!

Stop / Exit all programs:  Browsers, games, Applications, etc.

Control Panel > icon view > System > System Protection

Click (Highlight) your main disk (C) > Select Create a Restore Point

OR

(As available)

Create a restore point now for the drives that have system protection turned on

NOTES

If using USB, disconnect the USB cable between the printer and the computer before starting the installation.  Connect the cable when instructed to do so (toward the end of the installation procedure).

 

Where Supported:  Both the HP Smart Application and the Full Feature Software can be installed on the same computer.

 

==================================================================

Method - Create TCP IP port

 

Example:

How-to “Create TCP Port” Contributed by greenturtle

1. Print a Configuration Page to get the printer's IPv4 address (you can also tap on the wireless icon on the Front panel of your Printer to get the IP address)
2. On your PC, go to Control Panel > icon view > Devices and Printers > Right-Click on the printer > Left-Click Printer Properties > Select the Ports tab.
3. Click Add Port, select Standard TCP/IP Port, then select New Port and follow the wizard.
4. Type in the proper IP address for the printer.

This video resource will show you how to do it:
Create & Use TCP IP port

Note that you can ALWAYS revert back to the original port that the HP software installed by selecting the HP port under the Ports tab (in Printer Properties)
