Windows 10: Windows 10 - Cannot install HP printer drivers!!

I use Windows 10 professional on my Dell XPS 8700 desktop. I purchased an HP ENVY Photo 7858 All-In-One printer this past weekend. I am completely unable to install the printer software. I have tried multiple times. I disabled all internet security software Malwarebytes - not Premium, and Norton 360 with Lifelock so that there would not be any firewall issues. I tried to install the Easy Setup software package, I tried to install the Complete software package, both to no avail, both more than once.

Incidentally, the printer is connected to my home network. The desktop indicates that the software is installed, yet when I click on the desktop printer icon I am once again prompted to install the software.

Does anyone know what to do here? Is it possible to get the software installation disk? Any help would be appreciated!

Installing Printer Drivers on Win Serv 2003

hp doesn't have any drivers that support Window Server 2003 for my printer a PSC 1420V. Is there anyway I can install the drivers, or install substitute drivers?

 

Windows Update KB4022725 breaks hp network printer driver

The following steps worked for me:

1. Remove HP printer via classic Control panel>Hardware and Sound>Right click on HP printer to remove it. OR Windows Settings> Devices>Printers and scanners>Click on HP printer in list and Remove device.

2. Remove HP Basic printer driver via classic Control panel> Uninstall a program (Remove e-Print via Windows Settings). OR Windows settings> Apps> HP driver uninstall and HP e-Print uninstall.

3. Open up the run command with the "Windows Key + R" key combo. Type printui.exe /s and click OK opens Print Server Properties.
Click on Drivers tab. Under installed printer drivers look for HP e-Print click on it and click Remove at the bottom and then exit.

4. Open Windows Settings or classic Control Panel and add printer. If your printer is connected to your network via Wi-Fi or Ethernet windows will find it. Select your printer and windows will install the driver.
Do not use printer driver from HP as this will re-install e-Print.

I hope this helps someone.
PS HP sort your software out; many people are using Windows 10 and they don't need to struggle to get HP products to work!
