If installation still fails, and you are using a USB connection, try using a different USB port, and make sure not to use an external USB hub between the PC and the HP printer. Lastly, always make sure to use the latest HP driver software, to guarantee that you are not suffering from old versions with possible bugs or limited functionality. Tips for better search results • Ensure correct spelling and spacing - Examples: 'paper jam' • Use product model name: - Examples: laserjet pro p1102, DeskJet 2130 • For HP products a product number. - Examples: LG534UA • For Samsung Print products, enter the M/C or Model Code found on the product label. - Examples: “SL-M2020W/XAA” • Include keywords along with product name. Examples: 'LaserJet Pro P1102 paper jam', 'EliteBook 840 G3 bios update' Need help finding your product name or product number?

Objective: Get scanning to work with a Hewlett Packard MFP M276nw, connected via USB to a Windows 7 x64 system. What I did, step by step: • Uninstall printer driver from Device Manager. • Uninstall HP software from Control Panel Programs Programs and Features. • Manually run HP driver uninstaller: C: Users Felix AppData Local Temp 7zS5163 Uninstall.exe • Unplug the device from USB. • As Administrator, start the latest printer/scanner setup tool, downloaded from the HP web site: HP LaserJet Pro 200 Color M276 PCL6 Print Scan Driver with Installer - LJ-Pro-200-color-MFP-M276-driver-installer-15188.exe • Plug in USB when asked by the setup tool. Now, something possibly goes wrong already: Windows 7 picks up driver installation in parallel. • Wait until the setup tool finishes, unfortunately with an error message: 'An install operation took too long to execute. This is a fatal error preventing product use. Please restart your computer, and run this installer again. If the problem persists, please check the product support web site for your product.'
