No problem printing from phone. It will print the test page from laptop but nothing else.  I have followed the instructions found in other inquiries...unplug from unit, unplug from wall, after 2-3 mins hold power button for 30 seconds, replug in wall, replug in unit, wait for everything to load then try again....nada!  Brand new printer...worked just fine for a day after installed.

Welcome to the HP Community.

What the printer can do:

Product Specifications for the HP Envy Photo 7822 All-in-One Printer (Y0G43D)

Section Paper Handling

 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Printer Software

 

Method - Use the Easy Start Wrapper to Install the Full Feature / Full Driver Software

 

For printers that support the option,

Use the Easy Start wrapper to install and configure the printer software.

 

  • Home Page - HP Easy Start 
  • Open Category Software and Drivers 
  • Topic: Software-Utility 
  • Download-and-Save  the current version of the Easy Start wrapper to install your print software 
  • If using USB:  Disconnect the USB cable between the printer and computer before installing the software.
  • Right-Click on the downloaded package and "Run as Administrator" to start the installation
  • Select to install the “Full Driver” / “Full Feature Software”
  • If using USB:  Connect the cable when instructed to do so (near the end of the installation process).
  • After the software is installed, Restart the computer and log in.

 

Notes >> Easy Start... The Journey

 

  1. About 2/3 of the way through the setup, you will be given the opportunity to select the software - select the "Full Driver" set (as opposed to the basic driver or other application).

 

  1. You can skip / ignore suggestion(s) that you add the HP Account – you’ll need the account at some point, for now, you can skip this suggestion (as many times as it insists it’s a good idea) during the full driver software installation.

 

  1. If you see it, you can skip / ignore suggestion(s) regarding Instant Ink subscription.  Instant Ink subscription is NOT mandatory.

 

  1. Full driver provides print and scan functions supported by your printer.
