Ihave just bought a HP Envy 6432e printer. I was not too happy about having to set it up via an app but went with it. The app on my PC would not connect so I had to resort to using my phone. Eventually it appears to be set up but when I try to print the test page is just one line. I have tried to print a normal word document but only get a blank page. The virtual assistant was no help. Any ideas on what I have done wrong?

The HP Smart app is the main software for your printer. Install it on the device you want to print from, and then use it to set up the printer connection. By installing the HP Smart app, you also install all drivers necessary to print and scan.


Thank you for the information. I was able to connect to the app etc.. and eventually print a page however the black ink was not printing despite the cartridge being full. Additionally the auto paper feeder did not work. I have since discovered we were sold a dud machine from the shop. The serial number did not match the box and was in fact a machine that was registered over 3 years ago - probably why it was returned as it did not work. It has since been returned and we wil not be buying from that store again.


Hello,

I want to install the printer HP Envy 6432e on my Laptop-PC with OpenSUSE Leap 15.4. HPLIP 3.21.10 is installed. You recently announced on the UBUNTU help pages that HPLIP with version > 3.21.4 supports the Envy 6400-series. Thus, I assumed that on Linux the use of the HP Smart tool is not needed for installation. So, after switching on the power, I inserted firstly the cartridges and connected the printer to the laptop via USB. Indeed, HPLIP (as well as CUPS) recognizes the printer correctly and HPLIP installed the driver for this printer successfully. However, I cannot activate the printer, i.e., printing a test page is not possible. The printer announces the error E0, i.e. cartridges are not ok. This is even the case if I repeated the test after I have removed and re-inserted the cartridges. Since the cartridges are original HP cartridges, and they have been newly acquired together with the printer: is it possible that E0 just means that the cartridges ale locked on principle until HP Smart has been used, and the cartridges are ok? The message E0 appears even if I have removed the USB-connection from the printer. Is therefore the use of the HP Smart printer app absolutely necessary even if I use HPLIP on a linux PC for installation? So, would you please be so kind and provide me the full documentation for this job. I have missed it within the UBUNTU documentations.


The User manual of printer HP Envy 6432e emphasizes: using the HP smart app is necessary for installing the printer. Especially, a wireless connection between the smart app on the computer and the Printer must be established before starting the installation. I guess : Using the smart app may solve the E0-error. However, I want to install the printer for a Linux- laptop , thus I must use HPLIP.

Therefore I have an additional question:

Is using the HP smart app also required for the installation via HPLIP? Or what is in this case the analogous procedure/tool ?
