Hi @Nuri101 

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! We're here to help you get back up and running.

 

Thank you for sharing the error and confirming your troubleshooting efforts. I understand how frustrating it is when setup stalls unexpectedly. 

 

The error code UU_400_EB000U0701 during setup of your HP DeskJet Ink Advantage 2878 typically indicates a failure in account registration or printer initialization through the HP App. This can be resolved by following a few focused steps.

Steps to Resolve UU_400_EB000U0701 Setup Error

These steps are based on HP’s official guidance for app-based setup errors:

 

1. Restart the Setup Process

  • Close the HP App completely.
  • Disconnect the printer from power and wait 60 seconds.
  • Reconnect the printer and ensure it’s powered on.
  • Reopen the HP App and begin setup again.

 

2. Check Internet Connection

  • Ensure your computer or mobile device is connected to a stable Wi-Fi network.
  • Avoid using VPNs or proxy connections during setup.
  • If possible, connect to a different network and retry setup.

 

3. Sign In with a Valid HP Account

  • Open the HP App and sign in with your HP account.
  • If account creation fails, try using a different email address or browser to register at HP Account Portal.

 

4. Complete Hardware Setup First

  • Make sure the printer is fully initialized:
    • Remove all packaging materials.
    • Install ink cartridges and load paper.
    • Wait for the printer to complete its startup sequence before connecting to the app.

 

5. Use the Full Software Installer (Windows)

 

6. Clear HP App Cache (If Using Mobile)

  • On Android: Go to Settings > Apps > HP App > Storage > Clear Cache
  • On iOS: Uninstall and reinstall the HP App from the App Store
