    The printer will work just fine.

    It prints from my laptop using Win 7

    It is connected via bluetooth to my PC and to my laptop

    It is recognized by the PC, by the router and connectivity is excellent signal strength.

    When you command it to print something from the PC, nothing happens. Have tried all the troubleshooters with no luck.

    Does anyone have a solution.

    :)

    HP Officejet 8720 scan function can't find printer after W10 upgrade

    FWIW I have an 8720, connected via wi-fi, working perfectly in Win10. USB should be no different.
    I installed the HP software and followed the on-screen instructions. I didn't connect the Printer first, which potentially can cause problems or wrong drivers.

    I would do what Calendon Ken suggests, with one additional step. After eveerything is uninstalled and before you start the new install, reboot (restart) the PC. Then do the new install.

  3. connecting laptop to Office jet G55 printer

    Hi Luisa,

    To help you with your concern regarding the printer, let me suggest you to contact the manufacturer for the steps on how to connect your printer to your computer. Please follow the steps on how to contact the manufacturer:

    • The name of the OEM + “contact information”
    • The name of the OEM + “PC support”

    Regards.

    Add printer error 0x0000000d on Win10

    I see that there are a lot of incidents of this error in the community forums, but none on a Win10 computer. Looking through the older responses, none seem to work on a Win10. I'm using a Surface Pro 1 running up-to-date Win10, trying to connect wirelessly
    to an HP networked printer at work. I've been able to connect to this printer in the past, but just today when I went to the office and tried to print, I got an error message and found that I couldn't connect to the printer. I removed the printer from my Devices
    and Printers and tried reconnecting, but I finally get the error 0x0000000d.

    I am on a BYOD program, so my IT can not fix this problem on my computer.

    The steps that my IT has suggested for connecting to the printer, and which worked in the past:

    1. Navigate to "Add a printer"

    2. Click "The printer that I want isn't listed"

    3. Select a shared printer by name

    4. Type in printer address, "http://..."

    5. Login with my company credentials

    I recently changed both my Windows and company password, so may be related to this?
