@Ike3037, Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
To set up a thumbnail logo of your HP ENVY Inspire 7955e All-in-One Printer on your homepage in Windows 11, here’s a step-by-step guide depending on what you mean by "homepage":
If by "homepage" you mean your desktop or a custom webpage, here are two approaches:
Option 1: Add Thumbnail to Desktop (Shortcut with Icon)
Download a Printer Icon or Logo:
- You can search for an HP ENVY Inspire 7955e logo or icon online.
- Alternatively, I can help you create a custom thumbnail image if you’d like!
Create a Shortcut:
- Right-click on your desktop → New → Shortcut.
- Enter the path to your printer settings or control panel (e.g., control printers or the specific printer's URL if it's networked).
- Click Next, name it (e.g., “HP 7955e”), and click Finish.
Change the Icon:
- Right-click the shortcut → Properties → Change Icon.
- Browse to the icon file you downloaded or use a default one.
Option 2: Add Thumbnail to a Custom Webpage
If you’re building a personal homepage (e.g., in HTML), you can embed a thumbnail like this:
<a href="http://your-printer-ip-or-settings-url">
<img src="hp7955e-thumbnail.jpg" alt="HP 7955e Printer" width="150">
</a>
You’ll need:
- A thumbnail image (hp7955e-thumbnail.jpg)
- The correct URL or IP address for your printer’s web interface
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
