    Cannot install HP Smart, an app needed for my new HP printer. I get error code: 0x80070005. I tried to block the firewall. That did not work. I tried downloading all new windows updates. That did not work.Also, strange, this computer does not allow me to use Zoom. I can for a few minutes, then the whole computer crashes with a blue screen and a :-. But my problem now is I think i have to either throw away this laptop or return the printer because I need to download HP Smart to make the printer work but i can't.Thank you

    :)

    Setup of HP Officejet 9015e failing because HP Smart App does not open

    Thanks for the suggestion, Denis.
    I had read that suggestion when I was reading around earlier. I went to the hp site, drivers & downloads, but could not specifically find this "full-solution" software (am I blind?). What I did find, when clicked to download, it linked me back to the HP Smart page. Possibly with the Smart App installed, it will automatically link you to it. I will go ahead, uninstall the Smart App and re-try something from the hp page. Will report back my results ASAP.

    OK -- I'm back.
    Removed the Smart App via Settings.
    Back on the hp site, downloads & drivers I found 4 things:
    1) Driver product Installation software. Looks like this installs the Smart App. No thanks.
    2) HP Universal Fax driver. Not planning on faxing much of anything, so I think not this.
    3) Firmware Update. Is this needed?
    4) HP Easy Start Printer Setup Software.

    #4 looks like the best bet here on this page. Is this correct? Is this the Full solution software you mentioned?

    Setup of HP Officejet 9015e failing because HP Smart App does not open

    I have 2 HP printers, LaserJet Pro MFP M148 and OfficeJet Pro 9015, see issues for Smart so have removed it from 4 Desktops and a few Notebooks. Most of my needs are satisfied by programs and for scanning I use Windows Fax and Scan if a program can't, only needs the HP drivers. Part of what Smart wants is to set up an account and I pass on that. On one Desktop Smart only went to a blank page.
