Welcome to the HP Support Community.
I'd be happy to help.
Let's try to do a root uninstall and reinstall of the software:
Unplug any USB cable, if any, before doing this.
1.) In Windows, search for and open Programs and features
2.) Select your HP Printer
3.) Select Uninstall
4.) In Windows, search for and open Devices and printers
5.) In the Devices and Printers windows look for your HP printer. If you see it listed right-click on it and choose 'Delete' or 'Remove Device'
6.) Open up the run command with the "Windows key + R" key combo.
7.) Type printui.exe /s and click Ok. (Note: there is a space in between “printui.exe” and “/s”)
8.) Click on the "Drivers" tab
9.) Look for HP Printer driver. If you see it Click on it and click Remove at the bottom
10.) Select Ok
11.) Select Apply and Ok on the Print Server Properties windows
12.) Close Devices and Printers
13.) Open up the run command with the "Windows key + R" key combo
14.) Type c:/programdata and click Ok. Go to Hewlett Packard folder, remove any printer related folders & files.
15.) Restart the computer.
Once done, please download and install the software from here:

Let's reset the Printer: 1. Lift the cartridge access door to expose the cartridge area. 2. While the cartridge access door is open, press and hold (the Power button) and Wireless button on the back of the printer for three seconds.
Once done, then try connecting the Printer again.
Let me know if this helps.

An E9 error occurs when there is a setup or update error.
Check the HP Smart app to confirm the error. If a Printer Setup Incomplete message displays, restore factory defaults on the printer, and then add the printer to HP Smart again. For detailed steps, go to HP ENVY 6000e, 6400e printers - E9 (Printer Setup Incomplete) error.
If a message does not display in HP Smart, a problem occurred during a printer firmware update. Continue with these steps.
-
Set up the wireless connection again.
Go to Wireless Printer Setup for more information.
-
Touch the Information button
on the printer.
If an information page prints, the issue is resolved.
If an information page does not print, the printer is in recovery mode and needs to download the firmware again.
NOTE:
During recovery mode, the printer automatically downloads firmware from the cloud. Leave the printer for about 2 hours, depending on your network speed, to complete the firmware update.
