@Iceman64, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

Follow the steps below to isolate and resolve the issue-

 

Uninstall the app from your Windows 10 device through the All Apps list.

  1. In Windows, search for and open Apps & features.

    Searching for Apps & features

  2. Click HP Smart in the list of apps, and then click Uninstall.

    Uninstalling HP Smart app

Now, on your Windows 10 device, go to HP Smart (in English) to get the app from the Windows Store, and then follow the on-screen instructions to download and install the app.

 

Try printing.

 

If you still have an issue, use the HP Easy Start Printer Setup Software to configure the printer.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

Thanks for reaching out to me about my printer issue, but the issue is not resolved.

Thanks for replying!

 

To be able to assist you better, I'd like to know the following-

  • Is your router dual-band enabled i.e., both 2.4GHz and 5GHz?
  • Is there any antivirus software installed on your computer?
  • Have you tried using the HP Easy Start Printer Setup software as mentioned earlier?

Keep me posted.
