HP Envy 5660 will not print

[Prime32903]

I updated the software and drivers from the HP site.  The printer is connect wireless and I am able to scan.   Even a test page gives a print error.  I uninstalled and removed the device several times and reinstalled.  I ran scan/print doctor and verified the printer can print from it's self.  Just cannot print from the desktop.

Welcome to HP Support community.

What error message are you getting while printing?

Meanwhile:

Assign manual IP address and that should fix the issue.

Find the IP address 

1. From the printer control panel, touch Setup.

2. Touch Reports and then touch Network Configuration Report.

Setting a Static IP Address

Once you know your printer’s IP address, entering it is pretty easy. Here’s what you do:

1. Run your Web browser.
2. In the Web browser’s address bar, type the IP address of your printer and press Enter. Assuming you entered the right address, the HP printer control panel should appear.
3. Click the Networking tab.
4. Under Connections, click Wireless.
5. Under IP Address Configuration, click Manual IP.
6. Enter the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway in the appropriate boxes.
7. Click Apply.

This printer only has a wireless interface on it.  The error simply states the document couldn't print. The print queue and just displays error no numbers.  I found a USB cable and was able to print to the printer when it is physically connected.  I just can't print over the network.  I also am able to scan from the printer over the network, just cannot print to it.

Did you assign  static IP address as mention in above post?

[Prime32903]

Yes I assigned it the same IP it was getting from the router.  I can connect to it with a web browser with no problems.  Still the same error trying to print

[Prime32903]

Does anyone have a solution for this?  Again, assigning a static IP did not help.

Try scanning using the HP Smart App and let me know if that helps

Installed the Smart App.  I can scan from the app still cannot print.  Additionally, the app only allows you to print PDF's and images.  I had some PDF's on my desktop tried to print them.  I get the same error as trying to print from the desktop directly.

Try printing from a new user account. To create a new user account -

1. Tap the Windows icon.
2. Select Settings.
3. Tap Accounts.
4. Select Family & other users.
5. Tap "Add someone else to this PC."
6. Select "I don't have this person's sign-in information."
7. Select "Add a user without a Microsoft account."
8. Enter a username, type the account's password twice, enter a clue and select Next.
9. Tap the Windows icon.
10. Select the User icon at the upper left corner of the Start menu.
11. Select the new user. You'll then sign into your account with your password from step 8.
 

Let me know.
