Hi Bumfusal,
Got it — your new HP Envy 6550e won’t print. Let’s walk through some quick troubleshooting steps to get it working:
Check Printer
- Power & Connections
- Is the printer turned on?
- Is it connected to Wi-Fi or your computer (via USB or network)?
- Check for any error lights or messages on the screen.
2. Paper & Ink
- Make sure there’s paper in the tray.
- Check ink levels and make sure cartridges are installed correctly.
Computer Side
3. Check Printer Status
- On Windows:
Control Panel > Devices and Printers > Envy 6550e
Make sure it’s not set to “Offline” or “Paused.” - On Mac:
System Preferences > Printers & Scanners > Envy 6550e
Make sure it’s the default printer and not showing any errors.
4. Print Queue
- Clear out any stuck print jobs:
Right-click on the printer and choose “See what’s printing” → cancel all jobs.
Quick Fixes
5. Restart Everything
- Restart your printer, computer, and Wi-Fi router.
6. HP Smart App
- Install or open the HP Smart App – it can run diagnostics and help with setup.
- The app is available on Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android.
7. Driver Issues
- Go to HP’s support site and download the latest hp drivers for the Envy 6550e.
Hopefully this helps
