LaserJet 1536dnf MFP Printer
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I was having multiple problems with my LaserJet1536 printer so I uninstalled all the HP software. I tried to re-install the software three times, but I always got this message:

 

Error. An install operation took too long to execute. This is a fatal error preventing product use. Please restart your computer and run this Installer again. If the problem persists, please check the product support web site for your product.

 

On the first two attempts, I used the original installation disk for Windows that came with the printer. On the third attempt, I downloaded the installation software from HP and used it, but to no avail.

 

I turned off Avast Antivirus, but that did not help.

 

Any suggestions?
