hp officejet pro 8710
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am trying to install the drivers for the officejet pro 8710 all-in-one. I have downloaded the driver. It keeps asking for the disk to continue. I have tried uninstalling the hp8710 basic that is on the machine but it is requiring the disk. I don't have the disks. How do I get rid of the basic setup? I am using a 27" all in one HP computer.

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.

 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I understand you are getting this error on the printer screen to install insert Disk to continue. 
 

Let's try these steps to resolve the issue: 

Download and run HP Print and Scan Doctor: Follow steps from the link: Click here

 

Root level uninstall and reinstall printer drivers

  • Go to Control panel – Programs and feature – Select all the HP OfficeJet printer entries and uninstall them.
  • Now go to Control panel – Devices and printer – Select all the printer entries and remove the device.
  • Then press the "windows key" + "r" to get the "Run" window open - Type "printui.exe /s" and press enter.
  • Under print server properties, go to drivers - remove any entry there as well.
  • Again, go to run window, type – “c:/programdata” – Go to Hewlett Packard folder, remove any printer related folders & files.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
