Windows 10: How to remove any trace of the HP printer software on my version 19041

I developed a problem with my HP all in one 8600 printer connection. It is Wi-Fi type connection. It started not to connect a couple of updates ago. I tried deleting all the printer software and nothing I do will get rid of it when I look at printers and scanners. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate help as I have done everything I can think of to get rid of the printer software. HELP??

HP Envy 5530 Printer Software won't install


I can't find my USB cord, so I will need to order one. I will try it using a USB connection once I can get my hands on a USB cord.

The man at Staples told me that if I had my printer connected with a wire that it wouldn't work, but his suggestion for uninstalling Avast did not fix my problem, so who knows if he is correct?

 

Unable to install HP printer


What is the difference between step 2 and step 3? I know how to "remove device" in the devices and printers section of control panel. But how do I find and uninstall the drivers? The HP Full Feature Software is not installed, though maybe some registry remnants are messing things up?

Thanks everyone!
