I'm using an Envy 4500 series HP printer and keep getting this configuration error code when trying to print something: Ox80070005. Can anyone help with my issue?

Hi! @JoeyBod,

Please share the operating system you are running on the PC to assist you better.

Reset the printer

In some cases, removing the ink cartridges and resetting the printer can clear the error message.

1. Turn on the printer.

2. Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you continue.

3. Disconnect the USB cable from the rear of the printer. If your printer has a network or wireless connection, leave it connected.

4. Remove the ink cartridges from the printer.

5. With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer and from the wall outlet or power strip.

6. Wait at least 60 seconds.

7. Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.

      NOTE:

   HP recommends connecting the printer power cord directly to a wall outlet.

8. Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.

9. Turn on the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.

   The printer might go through a warm-up period. The printer lights might flash, and the carriage might move.

10. Wait until the warm-up period finishes and your printer is idle and silent before you proceed.

11. Reinsert the ink cartridges, and then close the ink cartridge access door.

12. If you receive a prompt to print a calibration page, do so.

13. If you disconnected the USB cable, reconnect it to the rear of the printer.

14. Try to print.

Try updating the printer firmware to the latest version and check if it helps.

Also, If you are running windows on the PC download and run print and scan doctor on the PC and check if it helps.

I believe my print problem has been solved. I just hope nothing else comes up to prevent me from printing. If so, I will be sure to bring it up on the HP problem forum. Thank you.
