I made a similar post on Feb 5th as Clarence2, but was unable to logon afterward due to email glitch, hence Clarence 21.   Cleared out all TMP files in windows/system 32/spool/printer. Still NG.

Thank you for joining the HP Support Community

 

This could be a driver issue.

 

I recommend you delete the driver at the root level and Install the drivers, follow the steps below:

 

Remove the USB if connected

 

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 

 

Then, Click on this link: https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/swdetails/hp-envy-5660-e-all-in-one-printer-series/... to download and install the HP ENVY 5660 e-All-in-One Printer Series Full Feature Software and Drivers. 

 

Try to print.
