Windows 10: Windows 10 - Cannot Install Printer

I am trying to install the HP Officejet 6970 on my PC but when I go through the process this message comes up:


INSTALLATION ERROR


CALL TO DRIVERPACKAGEINSTALL RETURNED ERROR 1723 FOR PACKAGE 'C:/PROGRAMFILES/HP/HPOFFICEJETPRO 6970/DRIVERSTORE/YETIV4/HPYGID20_V4.INF'


Then it says something about Windows Update yet nothing is updating. There was an option to go online and find a solution but that did nothing. Do I have to update drivers? This isn't even my PC, it's my dad who's trying to do this and he is not a computer whiz. What should I do?

Printer not printing after installing the device on the PC on Windows 10.

Hi Yitzchak,

I suggest you to uninstall and re-install the printer as a work around and check if it helps.

Step 1: Uninstall the printer:

• 
  Press “Windows + X” keys on the keyboard.
  
• 
  Click on “Device Manager” from that list.
  
• 
  Search for the “Printer” device from the device list, right click on it and then select “Uninstall”. On the un-installation window, if you have an option: “Delete the driver software for
  this device” you may select that and then remove its drivers from the computer.
  
• 
  Follow the on-screen instructions to complete it and the restart the computer if prompted.
  

You may also uninstall any related software provided by the printer manufacturer from the computer from “Programs and Features”. For this, you may follow these steps:

• 
  Press “Windows + X” keys on the keyboard and select “Programs and Features” from that list.
  
• 
  Search for any software provided by the printer manufacturer in the program list and if available, you may select it and click on “Uninstall” to remove it from the computer.
  
• 
  Follow the on-screen instructions to complete it and the restart the computer if prompted.
