HP OfficeJet 4620 printer. Windows 11 OS.
After clicking the Officejet icon on my desktop, a dialog box appears that prevents me from accessing the printer features.
You have no way to attach a screenshot. The general description is to install additional software that does not work. The
message can be cancelled; however, the message appears again, and I cannot access the printer scan feature. Scan from
the printer display is not working. Message is to see display for instructions. No instructions appear on the display.
Please advise.

Hi @Copymaker,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
It sounds like you're experiencing an issue with your HP Officejet 4620 printer software on your computer. Here are some steps you can try to resolve the problem:
Restart Your Computer: Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve software issues. Try restarting your computer and see if the problem persists.
Check for Updates: Make sure you have the latest software and drivers installed for your HP Officejet 4620 printer. Visit the HP website and search for the latest drivers and software for your printer model. Download and install any available updates.
Reinstall the Printer Software: If updating the drivers doesn't work, you may need to reinstall the printer software. Follow these steps:
a. Uninstall the existing printer software:
- Go to "Control Panel" (on Windows) or "System Preferences" (on Mac).
- Find and select "Devices and Printers" (Windows) or "Printers & Scanners" (Mac).
- Locate your HP Officejet 4620 printer, right-click on it (Windows) or click the "-" button (Mac), and choose to remove or delete the printer.
Try a Different USB Port or Connection Method: If you're connecting your printer to your computer via USB, try using a different USB port on your computer. If you're using a wireless connection, ensure that your printer is connected to the same network as your computer.
Check for Software Conflicts: Sometimes, other software or antivirus programs can interfere with your printer software. Temporarily disable any third-party security software and see if the problem persists.
Remember to back up any important documents or settings before making significant changes to your computer or printer software.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
