I’m mainly interested in improving performance for gaming. Thanks for your help!", "Answer": "@Ranleth, Yes, that 700-watt power supply with p/n: L80662-002 / M09027-001 / M09027-003 / M82200-002 / M86379-001, is indeed compatible with your HP Pavilion TG01-0xxx gaming desktop! As the Userbenchmark link I provided showed, the 95-watt i9-9900KF is perfectly compatible with your desktop. You'll have to check your temps, and if it is the case that this becomes a concern, simply upgrade your CPU heatsink (and/or add one or more additional cooling fans in your case) like I did with my HP Pavilion TP01-3xxx upgrade project: Solved: Upgrading an HP Pavilion TP01-3003W (318K3AA) - Page 5 - HP Support Community - 9254350. Please notice that I was able to install a whopping 125-watt TDP processor (with a max 190-watt TDP) in my presumably 65-watt TDP PC, though I used \"QuickCPU\" to throttle the TDP to 150-watt in order for this PC not to crash. Your PC can easily manage a 95-watt CPU without having to software-wise throttle its power input. Kind Regards, NonSequitur777"}

What RAM is compatible? How much RAM should it put? What processor could you put to improve the computer? Can Windows 10 or 11 be installed, or do I keep Windows 7? Are other O.S better for this computer? Thank you very much for reading me.", "Answer": "Hi: Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook: Maintenance and Service Guide Chapter 1 has the list of supported processors and memory upgrade information. You can't run W11 on the notebook because it does not meet Microsoft's minimum W11 hardware requirements and the W11 installation media wouldn't even let you try and install W11 on your notebook. You would have to buy licenses to install W10, so upgrading the operating system is probably not worth the expense and W10 goes out of support in October of this year. Leave your notebook on W7. Running W10 with your notebook's maximum memory capacity of 2 x 1 GB would not perform well at all."}

{"Title": "Re: Hp Pavilion Laptop 15t-Cs200", "Question": "I want to upgrade the same Laptop. Can you advise me whether I can remove the Optene memory and install the 1TB SSD in that slot and if I do, do I need to remove the HDD? Or is it better to remove the Optene memory and replace the HDD with a SSD drive? In either case I would do a clean install. ", "Answer": "Yes, you can remove the Optane memory and install a M.2 NVMe SSD, but before you remove the M.2 Optane device make sure you disable it in the Intel RST software, or the 2.5\" drive will be inaccessible. You can retain the 2.5\" drive and use it for additional storage, but you will have to remove Windows from the drive, or the notebook will always want to boot from the SATA drive and not the NVMe SSD. The notebooks that come with dual drive configurations have no operating system on the 2.5\" drive. The M.2 slot is PCIe Gen 3.0. A Gen 4.0 SSD will work but it will not run at its maximum advertised read/write speeds from the Gen 3 slot. "}
{"Title": "Color Laser 150nw Not Accessible By Its IP", "Question": "Bought new 150nw, download and run driver install v1.2 from 123.hp.com as guided by the quick start leaflet.

I've finished the setup by connecting via USB and install went through smootly. I've printed the network diagnosis page that showed the printer is online in my WLAN and it also shows up in my router with its host name and obviously same IP. I've deactivated the Windows and 3rd party firewall and still can't access the EWS (by using the IP) and neither HP Smart, nor HP Smart Repair Doctor or the Driver Installer find the printer, even if I try to connect by entering the IP or host name.

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your Color Laser 150nw! We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution. Since you’ve already done quite a bit of troubleshooting, here are a few additional things to check: Confirm Printer’s Network Connection Print a Network Configuration Page (Press and hold the Resume button until the Ready light starts blinking, then release). Check if the IP address matches your network’s range (e.g., if your router is 192.168.1.X, the printer should have a similar IP). Ensure the Subnet Mask and Default Gateway are correctly assigned. Ping the Printer On your Windows PC: Open Command Prompt (Win + R, type cmd, press Enter). Type: ping [Printer's IP Address] and hit Enter. If you get a Reply, the printer is online but may be blocked by software. If you get Request Timed Out, the connection isn’t properly established. Check Wireless Isolation & Firewall Settings Some routers have Wireless Isolation enabled, which blocks devices from communicating. Check your router’s settings and disable it if needed. Even though you disabled firewalls, check Windows Defender Security settings under Network & Internet > Advanced network settings to ensure nothing is blocking communication. Manually Add the Printer Open Control Panel > Devices & Printers Click Add a Printer > The printer I want isn’t listed Select Add a printer using TCP/IP address Enter your printer’s IP address, follow the prompts, and see if it connects.

{"Title": "Battery", "Question": "Hi!I would like to ask about Hp sleep and charge,if used a 120w adapter type c charger,it takes how long to charge my battery until full?And also I putted it for 8hours to charge,does this harm my battery? my model no is 16-xd0020AX", "Answer": "HP Sleep and Charge is for the charge your laptop delivers through its usb ports as for example, charging your mobile. The sleep part means it will still put out a charge even when the laptop is asleep. I think you are asking about Power Delivery which is a charge going in through the USB-C port. Your laptop needs a 280w adapter so do not use a 120w except perhaps to charge when the laptop is off. How long it takes to go from say 20% to 100% using a non-specified adapter is anyone's guess but mine would be likely overnight. As long as you only use the 120w to charge when the laptop is off it will not harm the battery but you should really only do that in a pinch. Why not use the provided 280w adapter?"}

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution. If you have replaced the ink cartridge on your HP OfficeJet Pro 9015 printer but it still indicates that the cartridge is out of ink, try the following steps: Ensure Proper Cartridge Installation: Turn on the printer. Open the ink cartridge access door. Remove and reinsert the ink cartridge. Ensure the cartridge is correctly seated in its slot. Close the ink cartridge access door and wait for the printer to recognize the cartridge. Check Cartridge Compatibility: Ensure the ink cartridge is compatible with your HP OfficeJet Pro 9015 printer.

Printer works fine from manual feed (prints, copies and scans), but message still shows.", "Answer": "Hi @joebirrell, Welcome to the HP Support Community! Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding the paper jam error on your printer! We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution. Check ADF for Obstructions: Turn off the printer. Lift the ADF cover and remove any visible debris or small pieces of paper stuck in the feed mechanism. Use a flashlight if necessary to inspect the entire feed area. Clean the ADF Rollers: Open the ADF cover and gently clean the rollers with a lint-free cloth dampened with distilled water. Rotate the rollers to ensure all surfaces are cleaned. Reset the Printer: Turn off the printer, unplug the power cord, wait for about 60 seconds, and then plug it back in. Turn on the printer and check if the error message persists. Check for Sensor Issues: Sometimes the paper jam error can be caused by a malfunctioning sensor. Inspect the sensors in the ADF for any visible damage or obstructions. If necessary, gently clean the sensor areas using a lint-free cloth. Run Printer Diagnostics: Use the HP Print and Scan Doctor tool to diagnose and fix any issues. This tool can be downloaded from the HP Support website. Clear Error Messages: Navigate to the printer's menu and check for any hidden error messages. Go to Settings > Printer Maintenance > Clear Errors or Reset Printer. Manually Feed Paper into ADF: Insert one sheet of paper into the ADF and gently push it until it starts feeding into the mechanism. This can sometimes clear minor obstructions. Check Your Printer Software: Ensure you have the latest printer drivers and software installed on your macOS 12.0 Monterey. Go to the HP Support website and download the latest drivers.

The printer acts like it's printing but yields a blank page. The black ink cartridge ink level is low, but not empty. When I push the \"i\" button on the printer itself it prints the \"Printer Information Page.\" Everything on it appears perfectly. The black print is dark and full.

Can I unplug it or will the HP305 ink dry out?", "Answer": "Hi @sagmanolis, ? Welcome to the HP Support Community! Thanks for reaching out about your concern! We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution. To maintain excellent print quality from your HP305 ink cartridges and prevent them from drying out, consider the following tips: Keep Cartridges Installed: Once installed, leave the print cartridges in their cradle at all times. This prevents them from drying out or becoming clogged. Room Temperature: Store unsealed print cartridges in an airtight plastic container and keep all print cartridges in their sealed packages at room temperature (60-78˚ F or 15.6-26.6˚ C) until you are ready to use them. Power Button Usage: Only use the Power Button on the front of the printer to turn the printer on and off. Using a power strip, surge protector, or a wall-mounted outlet switch to turn the printer on and off may cause premature failure. Do Not Unplug: Avoid unplugging the printer until printing is complete and the print cartridge cradles have returned to their home position on the right side of the printer. The print cartridges will dry out if not stored in their home position. By following these guidelines, your HP305 ink cartridges should remain in good condition even if you print infrequently.

After a forced shutdown, I encountered a Machine Check Exception error. I had it inspected at a repair shop, and I was told that the issue lies with the GPU, which is soldered onto the motherboard. The technician informed me that the only way to fix it is by replacing the entire motherboard. I’m looking for a replacement motherboard that matches my current one. Does anyone know where I can find the exact same motherboard for this model? Also, are there any alternative compatible motherboards that would work with my laptop? Thank you in advance.", "Answer": "Hi: Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook: Maintenance and Service Guide OMEN by HP 17 Laptop PC Chapter 3 has the list of supported motherboards with part numbers.

When I try all the solutions to remedy this, nothing works permanently. During use of printing, copying or scanning the message reappears.", "Answer": "Hi @Mitchell31 Welcome to the HP Support Community! Thanks for posting your query! We're here to help you get back up and running. It sounds like your HP Smart Tank 7605 All-in-One printer's Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) might be falsely detecting a jam. Since you've thoroughly checked for physical jams and tried the common remedies without permanent resolution, let’s go through some advanced troubleshooting steps: 1. Clean the ADF Sensors and Rollers Sensors: Dust or debris on the sensors can cause misreads. Open the ADF and locate the sensors (usually small, recessed areas inside the feeder). Use a lint-free cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol to gently clean the sensors. Rollers: If the rollers aren’t gripping properly, clean them with the same cloth. Ensure they are free of dust, paper residue, or sticky substances. 2. Check for Paper Tray Alignment Ensure the paper tray and ADF tray are correctly aligned and seated. Look for warped or uneven areas that might disrupt paper feeding. 3. Reset the Printer Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source. Wait for at least 60 seconds. Plug it back in and turn it on. This can clear minor glitches. 4. Use Single Sheets in the ADF Try placing a single sheet in the ADF instead of multiple sheets. Adjust the paper guides to hold the sheet snugly (but not tightly) to test if the issue is related to how the paper is fed. 5. Update Printer Firmware Outdated firmware can sometimes cause recurring errors like this: Visit the HP Support website. Search for your printer model and download the latest firmware update. Follow the instructions to install it. 6. Perform a Factory Reset If the issue persists, restoring the printer to factory settings can help: Navigate to the printer’s Settings > Printer Maintenance > Restore Factory Settings. Follow the prompts. Note: You’ll need to reconfigure your printer after this step. If this solution hits the spot, please come back and click \"Accepted Solution\" to help others find the answer.

Connect the SATA 15-pin power cable to your ATX power supply, and the 6-pin power slot to the riser card, and you are in business.

It is under warranty but it is impossible to get in touch with anybody from tech support on this website. Any suggestions? ", "Answer": "@IamNotImpressed, Welcome to HP Support Community. Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. That sounds incredibly frustrating. Since your HP 230 Wireless Keyboard doesn't have an on/off switch, it should automatically reconnect when your PC is powered back on. The fact that you have to remove and reinsert the batteries suggests a power issue or a problem with the wireless connection. Troubleshooting Steps: Try a Different USB Port: Unplug the USB receiver and plug it into a different port (preferably a USB 2.0 port if available). Avoid using a USB hub?connect directly to your PC. Re-Pair the Keyboard: If your keyboard has a pairing button (usually on the bottom), press it to see if it reconnects. If not, try removing the device from Bluetooth & devices in Windows, then reconnect it. Update Drivers: Open Device Manager → Expand Keyboards → Right-click HID Keyboard Device → Update driver. Do the same under Universal Serial Bus controllers (update USB receiver drivers). Disable USB Power Saving Settings: Go to Device Manager → Expand Universal Serial Bus controllers. Right-click each USB Root Hub → Properties → Power Management tab → Uncheck Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power. Try Fresh Batteries: Even if your batteries seem fine, try replacing them to rule out a power delivery issue. Check for Interference: If you have multiple wireless devices nearby, try moving them away to prevent signal interference. If the issue persists, you will have to visit the nearest HP authorized service center, along with the keyboard and invoice copy for further assistance.

Ideally, your HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop PC TG01-2000i (4S849PA) as fitted with the Stark motherboard (SSID: 8860) can be upgraded with an i7-11700 or i7-11700F processor. You got enough RAM for now, later on you may want to consider upgrading to a 2x16GB RAM kit. Please check, I believe your PC is powered by a 350-watt power supply with p/n: M49611-001. It is possible that your PC got the 400-watt power supply (likely with p/n: L69242-800 or L04618-800). In order to upgrade your graphics card -which I would recommend before you upgrade your processor, you may have to upgrade your power supply if you got the 350-watt power supply. Reason being, the graphics card I would recommend would be a smaller-sized (dual fan) RTX 4060, powered by a single 8-pin PCIe power cable, such as this example: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/asus-dual-rtx-4060-v2-oc.b11456.

The installation process completes successfully, and the system boots without issues on another device (an Asus Vivobook). However, when attempting to boot from the external SSD on the HP Victus, the system fails to start. Troubleshooting Steps Taken: BIOS/UEFI Settings: Disabled Secure Boot. Enabled Legacy Mode. Set the external SSD as the primary boot device. Boot Process: Attempted to boot in both normal and recovery modes; neither was successful. Installation Method: Used the graphical installer to set up Kali Linux on the external SSD. Created necessary partitions: root (“/”), swap, and EFI. Installed the GRUB bootloader on the external SSD.

Steps to Implement the Solution: Access BIOS/UEFI Settings: Restart the laptop and press the appropriate key (commonly Esc, F2, F10, or Del) during startup to enter the BIOS/UEFI menu.? Navigate to Graphics Settings: Within the BIOS/UEFI interface, locate the section related to graphics configuration.? Change Graphics Mode: Switch the graphics setting from \"Hybrid\" to \"Discrete.\"? Save and Exit: Save the changes and exit the BIOS/UEFI. The system will reboot with the new settings.? After making this change, Kali Linux boots successfully, and all display functions operate as expected.

Paul Tikkanen has assisted me when building this machine, as was a great help. Sincerely, Eric Wilson", "Answer": "You're very welcome, Eric. Yes, 4 beeps, red flashing light could indicate a power supply issue. Item 3 in the troubleshooting steps after going through steps 1 and 2 indicate that at this point you should try replacing the power supply. 1. Open the hood and ensure the 4 or 6-wire power supply cable is seated into the connector on the system board. 2. Check if a device is causing the problem by removing ALL attached devices (such as hard, diskette, or optical drives, and expansion cards). Power on the system. If the system enters the POST, then power off and replace one device at a time and repeat this procedure until failure occurs. Replace the device that is causing the failure. Continue adding devices one at a time to ensure all devices are functioning properly. 3.Replace the power supply. 4.Replace the system board. May God Bless you too.

Any views on non genuine pens?", "Answer": "@Rocketman11, Welcome to the HP Support Community! Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your HP Envy 360! We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution. You're right?HP offers different types of active pens, both battery-powered and rechargeable, and it can get a little confusing. To clear things up: Tilt Feature The tilt feature is great if you do a lot of sketching or shading. It allows the pen to detect the angle at which you're holding it, which can create more natural strokes, similar to how a real pencil works. If you're into digital art or handwriting, this can make a noticeable difference in precision. Compatible HP Pens For your HP Envy x360 16-ac0003na, I’d recommend: HP MPP 2.0 Tilt Pen (Rechargeable) ? Best for artists and note-takers who want tilt functionality. HP MPP 1.51 Pen (Battery-Powered) ? A solid, budget-friendly choice for general use. Both use Microsoft Pen Protocol (MPP), which is the standard for HP’s active pens. Non-Genuine Pens ? Worth It? Some third-party pens might work, but it’s hit or miss. They may lack full pressure sensitivity, palm rejection, or tilt support, and compatibility isn’t always guaranteed.

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution. Since you mentioned that two agents have already worked on this remotely and a supervisor has been involved, let’s try a few additional steps to see if we can restore the feature: Check for Another Update: Sometimes, HP releases follow-up updates to fix unintended changes. Try checking for another firmware update via your printer settings or HP Smart. Factory Reset: If you haven't already, restoring the printer to its factory default settings might help. This will remove any changes made by the latest update that could be interfering with the copy resize option. On your printer, go to Setup > Printer Maintenance > Restore Factory Defaults. HP Smart App or Embedded Web Server (EWS): Some features may still be accessible via the HP Smart app or the printer’s web interface. Try accessing the copy resize settings through these options.

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your printer that wakes at 5am! We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution. Printers do periodic maintenance to keep the ink flowing smoothly and prevent clogs, but I understand that 5 AM isn’t exactly an ideal time for that. While there isn’t a built-in way to change the timing, one workaround you could try is adjusting the printer’s sleep settings. If you set it to sleep earlier or turn it off manually before bed (I know, not ideal), it might help reduce the chances of it waking up at that time.

{"Title": "Where To Add A 2nd Nvme.M2 Drive", "Question": "I recently bought an HP Omen 45L (Product number: B93MWEA) and it comes with a 2TB NVMe-m2 drive. I would like to add a second NVMe-m2 (a samsung 900 proc) but I can't find a second NVMe-m2 slot, can you tell me where to find it? If there is no second NVMe-m2 slot how can add a second solid state drive?", "Answer": "@Rick-lx, Welcome to our HP Community forum! I believe your OMEN by HP 45L Gaming Desktop PC GT22-3000i is fitted with the WildheartOC motherboard (SSID: 8CF3). This motherboard has two M.2 NVMe SSD slots, the M.2 slot closest to your processor is a Gen 5.0 slot, whereas the second M.2 slot (see illustration) is a Gen 4.0 slot. This means that you should use the Gen 5.0 slot as your primary (boot) drive, and the second M.2 slot as a secondary storage drive. You could even install a third M.2 NVMe SSD drive, by using the PCIe x4 slot with a PCIe to M.2 NVMe SSD adapter, such as this Amazon-Spain purchase example: GLOTRENDS PA09-HS Adaptador M.2 NVMe a PCIe 4.0 X4 con disipador M.2, para SSD M.2 NVMe 2280/2260/22...: Hope this was helpful.

Do not allow any updates if disk or memory fail, especially a BIOS update. For a new system that has UEFI bios and GPT but does not meet all requirements, Windows 11 can be installed using the Rufus trick. Get Rufus here Download Windows 11 with this link and use an 8gb or larger USB. Windows 11 does not expire and Microsoft just leaves an activation reminder on the screen. Otherwise use the windows 10 license. Configure Rufus to use UEFI boot and select the option that creates a local account so as to avoid the Microsoft email login. Use options shown below: Uncheck the \"Set regional options\" if you are creating the USB on another system that has a different OS than yours. Do not install 11 Pro if you are licensed for 10 Home. To do a clean install then boot the USB else just insert it and find and run \"setup\" You have to click \"start\" before those options show up.

{"Title": "Can A Atx Motherboard Fit Into A Hp Omen 40L Case", "Question": "Want to upgrade my motherboard to a atx", "Answer": "@Xavilezx, If you mean: can I install a non-HP gaming motherboard in my HP Omen 40L case, the answer is: yes, but with significant limitations and modifications. The HP OMEN 40L case is designed around HP’s proprietary motherboard layout, so replacing it with a standard non-HP gaming motherboard isn’t a straightforward swap. Here’s what you should consider: Key Challenges & Workarounds: Motherboard Standoffs & Form Factor: The HP OMEN 40L uses a custom motherboard design that doesn’t follow standard ATX mounting points exactly. Some standoffs may not align with a standard ATX motherboard, requiring new holes to be drilled or adapter mounts. Front Panel Connectors: HP uses proprietary front panel connectors for the power button, LED controls, and USB ports. A non-HP motherboard may not have compatible headers, requiring an adapter or rewiring. Power Supply (PSU): If using the stock HP PSU, check if it has standard 24-pin and 8-pin power connectors. Some HP power supplies use proprietary pinouts, requiring an adapter or a PSU replacement. Cooling & RGB Integration: The HP OMEN 40L’s RGB lighting and fan controls are integrated with HP’s motherboard and software. A non-HP motherboard won’t control these directly, so users may need third-party software, BIOS adjustments, or an external RGB controller. BIOS & Fan Control: HP’s motherboards have proprietary BIOS settings for cooling profiles. A different motherboard will require configuring new fan control settings in BIOS or using a separate fan controller. Bottom Line: While it’s possible to install a non-HP gaming motherboard, it’s not plug-and-play. If you are comfortable with custom wiring, modifying the case, and potentially replacing other components (PSU, cooling, RGB controller), you can make it work. Otherwise, you might be better off using a standard aftermarket case for a smoother upgrade. Kind Regards, NonSequitur777"}

Otherwise, the administrator bios security password for any other access to my computer is not a problem.

We're here to help you get back up and running. It sounds frustrating to deal with an offline error right after setting up your printer! Here are some steps you can try to resolve the issue and get your Smart Tank 6001 scanning smoothly: Check the Connection: Ensure your printer is powered on and properly connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your computer. If you're using a USB connection, confirm that the cable is securely plugged in. Restart Everything: Restart your printer, computer, and router. Sometimes, this simple step resolves connection issues. Verify Printer Status: On your computer, go to the \"Devices and Printers\" section (in Control Panel). Right-click your printer and make sure it is set as the default printer and is not set to \"Use Printer Offline.\" Update Printer Drivers: Go to the HP Smart Tank 6001 support page and download the latest drivers for your printer model. Outdated drivers can cause offline errors. HP Smart App: Use the HP Smart app to scan documents. This app can automatically detect and resolve issues with your printer. Scan Settings: Open the HP Smart app or your scanning software and ensure that the printer is selected as the source. Sometimes, the wrong device might be selected by default.

WHILE I HAVE A NEW KEYBOARD IN HAND, I HATE TO DISCARD THE OLD ONE JUST BECAUSEE 1 KEY IS NOT WORKING! thanks, GENE", "Answer": "Hi @worldspan Welcome to the HP Support Community! Thanks for posting your query! We're here to help you get back up and running. Ah, the rebellious \"E\" key?it’s clearly trying to make itself known! Here are some creative and practical solutions you can try before fully retiring your keyboard: 1. Physical Cleaning: Turn off your computer and unplug the keyboard. Gently pry off the \"E\" keycap using a flat tool (e.g., a small flathead screwdriver or a keycap puller if you have one). Inspect underneath the keycap for debris, dust, or sticky residue. Clean it using a cotton swab lightly dampened with isopropyl alcohol. Also clean the area around the key and the mechanism under the keycap. Let it dry completely before reattaching. 2. Lubrication: If the key is sticking mechanically, apply a tiny amount of silicone-based keyboard lubricant (make sure it’s safe for keyboards) to the moving parts under the keycap. This can reduce friction and restore smooth movement. 3. Check for Physical Damage: Inspect the \"E\" key's switch or mechanism for signs of wear or damage. If it’s a mechanical keyboard, the switch might need replacing. For membrane keyboards, check if the plastic sheet under the key is misaligned or damaged. 4. Reassign the Key: If cleaning and lubrication don’t work, you can temporarily remap the \"E\" key to another key you rarely use (e.g., one in the corner of the keyboard). Search online and use keyboard remapping software like SharpKeys (Windows) or Karabiner (macOS). Note: HP typically does not take responsibility for third-party software that you install or use on their devices. Their warranty and support are usually limited to hardware and pre-installed HP software or drivers. If third-party software causes issues or malfunctions, it is often up to the software's provider to offer support. 5. Keyboard Surgery: If you’re feeling adventurous, dismantle the keyboard to access the internal mechanism. Sometimes keys stick due to wear or dust buildup inside. Carefully reassemble after inspecting and cleaning the internal parts. 6. Creative Repurposing: If the keyboard ultimately proves too stubborn, you could repurpose it into a fun DIY project (like creating a custom decorative piece or using the functional keys for a single-purpose device). Since you already have a new keyboard, these methods might help breathe new life into the old one, saving it from being discarded for just one sticky key. Let me know which approach you try?your keyboard deserves a second chance! If this solution hits the spot, please come back and click \"Accepted Solution\" to help others find the answer.

We're here to help you get back up and running. To turn your one-page document into a two-page document with larger text, here's what you can do: Adjust Font Size: Open your document (e.g., in Microsoft Word or similar software).

Printer Settings: After formatting the document, go to the \"Print\" option. Make sure your HP OfficeJet Pro 8035e is selected as the printer. Check the \"Print Preview\" to see how the pages will appear. If the text still fits on one page, revisit the formatting and try increasing the font size further.

{"Title": "Lag In Button Presses AFTER A Call Is In Progress", "Question": "Hi All, We are a school with Zoom VOIP phone service and a mix of Polycom VVX 311 and VVX 411 phones. In one of our buildings, we perform intercom paging by calling into an Algo 8301 IP Paging Adapter which is paired to a Bogen PCM2000 zone paging system. When the algo receives our call, it plays a chime to let us know it has answered. We then need to press some buttons on our phone to signal to the PCM2000 which zone we would like to talk to. For example, the button press we use most often is *01 to page to just our internal building speakers. Our issue is that the button presses are very laggy when we do them from the Polycoms. The tones don't come out right away and often come out in a burst all at once. It doesn't matter how fast or slow we dial the sequence. There's always an unpredictable timing to the tones coming out. Because of that, we frequently need to try multiple times before the Bogen PCM2000 gets the signal and initiates the intercom page. Two very important things to note about this situation: (1) we don't have this issue when calling into the Algo from the Zoom smartphone app, and (2) in another building of ours where we have the Algo but not the Bogen, we don't have this issue. Based on the above, it's my assumption that the issue lies with how the Algo or the Polycom talks to the Bogen. I know this is a long stretch, but I'm hoping someone might have a generic suggestion to resolve this like \"Switch your DTMF detection type to X instead of Y.\" Please let me know any ideas you might have. Thank you!", "Answer": "Hi to anyone who reads this in the future. I think I've resolved this situation (pending). I noticed that if I wait an additional 1.5 to 2.0 seconds before trying to dial the *01 code, everything works great. So, I'm speculating that there is some mild instability within the first 1.5 to 3.0 seconds of the call getting established. To resolve this situation, I've uploaded a custom tone to the Algo device with 1.5 seconds of silence inserted before the \"ding\" sound that plays to let the user know their call has been answered by the Algo box. That extra little bit of silence forces the user to wait just a tiny bit longer. Now, it seems as though I can consistently enter *01 and *02 without any issues."}

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your laptop screen that only shows correct colors at extreme angles! We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution. I totally get how frustrating it can be when colors don’t look as vibrant as expected, especially when you notice the difference side by side. From what you’re describing, it sounds like the display on your HP 15.6\" Laptop PC 15-e2000 might have a more limited color range compared to other screens. .

Click on Advanced Display Settings > Display Adapter Properties and look for the Color Management tab to tweak color profiles. Update or Reinstall Graphics Drivers Open Device Manager (Win + X > Device Manager). Expand Display adapters, right-click on your graphics driver (Intel or AMD), and select Update driver. If updating doesn’t help, try uninstalling the driver and then restarting your laptop?Windows should reinstall it automatically. Calibrate the Display Type Color Calibration in the Windows search bar and follow the on-screen steps to fine-tune your display. Check Night Light & Power Settings Make sure Night Light is turned off (Settings > Display > Night Light). If you’re on battery mode, your laptop might be adjusting colors to save power. Try switching to Best Performance mode under power settings. If none of these improve the issue, it’s possible that the display panel itself has a more limited color range. Let me know how it goes!

{"Title": "GeForce RTX 3050 Not Detected", "Question": "Hello, I bought an HP victus 15 around 2 years ago, it's been like 9 months where my nvidia gpu is not detected. It suddenly disappeared from device manager. I checked hidden devices and it was there with error code 45. I uninstalled the driver and tried reinstalling but it keeps saying not detected. I tried a lot of solutions on the internet and nothing worked. I even tried resetting my laptop and the same issue still persists. All my drivers are up to date, I never miss an update. PLEASE HELP!!", "Answer": "Hi @Mhmdam13, Thank you for trying all the steps. Here’s what you can try next: 1. Check for GPU Detection in System Information Press Win + R, type msinfo32, and hit Enter. Navigate to Components → Display and check if your RTX 3050 is listed. If it's missing, the GPU may not be properly connected or recognized by the system. 2. Check NVIDIA GPU Status via Command Prompt Open Command Prompt as Administrator and type: wmic path win32_videocontroller get name This should list all detected GPUs. If the RTX 3050 is missing, it's not being recognized at the hardware level. 3. Force Enable GPU in Device Manager Since the GPU is showing as Error Code 45 (hardware not connected): Open Device Manager. Find the hidden NVIDIA GPU (View → Show hidden devices). Right-click on it and select Enable Device (if available). If that doesn't work, right-click and select Scan for hardware changes. 4. Try a Hard Reset Turn off the laptop. Unplug the charger and remove the battery (if removable). Hold the power button for 30 seconds. Plug in only the charger and power it on. Check if the GPU is detected. 5. Reset BIOS to Default Restart your laptop and enter BIOS (press Esc or F10 repeatedly). Look for Load Default Settings / Load Optimized Defaults and apply. Save changes and restart.

I managed to configure it on a Mac running MacOS Sequoia (15.3.2) but I don't find a way yo have it detected by a Mac running MacOS Monterrey. I tried several times to disconnect the modem, uninstall / reinstall HP Smart... Most of the time, it tells me no printer is detected. When it does detect one, I can't finish the install in HP Smart and I get a UU_400_EB000A9900 error. Any help on that issue would be very much appreciated Regards ", "Answer": "@RedGuy50, Welcome to HP Support Community. Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. The UU_400_EB000A9900 error in HP Smart on macOS Monterey usually indicates a communication issue between the printer and your Mac. Since your HP LaserJet MFP M234dw was successfully configured on another Mac running macOS Sequoia (15.3.2), the problem is likely specific to your Monterey system. Troubleshooting Steps: Remove Any Old Printer Drivers & Reset Printing System Go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners. Right-click (or Control + Click) on the printer list and select Reset Printing System. Click Reset and restart your Mac. Reinstall the printer afterward. Manually Add the Printer Using AirPrint (Without HP Smart) Ensure the printer and Mac are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners. Click the + (Add Printer, Scanner, or Fax) button. Select your printer from the list. In the Use dropdown menu, select AirPrint instead of HP drivers. Click Add and try printing. Disable IPv6 on the Printer Open the Embedded Web Server (EWS) by entering your printer's IP address in a web browser. Navigate to Network > IPv6 Configuration. Disable IPv6 and save changes. Restart the printer and Mac, then try reinstalling. Try a USB Connection If the wireless setup keeps failing: Connect the printer to your Mac using a USB cable. Open HP Easy Start or HP Smart and try setting it up. Ensure HP Software is Up to Date Restart the Router and Assign a Static IP Restart your Wi-Fi router and printer. Open the printer’s EWS and go to Network Settings. Assign a Static IP under IPv4 Settings. Try reinstalling the printer. I hope this helps. Take care and have a good day.

{"Title": "After Automatic HP BIOS Update, Unable To Reset Login PIN", "Question": "I just sat down to use my computer for the first time in a couple of months. There was a lengthy Windows update I had to wait for to complete. After that was done, I signed into my computer just fine. While I was using the computer, a minute later I got a notice from the HP support app saying I needed to do a restart to complete updating. So I clicked the restart button, and 30 seconds later, my computer started powering down. During the updates, I saw a screen saying the HP Bios was being updated, with a progress bar. 512 blocks were written IIRC. So when the computer booted again, the login screen said my PIN was unavailable and I needed to set it up again. So I clicked on “Set up my PIN” and it says it’ll send a code to my **bleep** email address to sign me in. I’ve tried many things, checking junk folder, deleted, folder, resending the code at least 10 times now. That code never comes. The computer is only six months old. My impression is it comes with a year of warranty. And there’s an HP support app on my computer that says I have another 5 months of warranty. But anywhere they connect you with support, they always tell me my serial number is invalid. I’ve checked the sticker on the bottom of my computer, the HP Support App, and the hp.com store where I bought the computer. They all have the same serial number that I’m putting in correctly. But I’ve been told at least 4 different places online and on two different phone numbers I’ve called (that were both automated systems, no humans), that it’s an invalid serial number. i was able to get into another account on the PC is how I was able to check the HP support app on the computer. But I really need to get. Into my main account. And I’m really thinking this is going to have something to do with that BIOS TPM stuff so this isn’t going to be an easy fix. I saw the HP software saying it was updating the BIOS, and then right after that I start having trouble with signing in is why I think it has to do with the BIOS TPM stuff. My understanding is all that is related. Can someone tell me how to get in touch with support even if they think you have an invalid serial number? Part of the reason I bought from HP.com was I figured that’d make it easier for HP to track my purchase if need be, Can someone tell me how to fix the issue about not getting the code sent to my outlook email address when I try to reset up my PIN? Or other way to get into my account? I’m retired now. But I wrote software for a living when I was working. I’m not a computer novice. I did use to buy DELL products though and am not familiar with how HP does things.", "Answer": "Thank you for posting that guide. what ended up happening is I sat down at the computer the next day, and there was ANOTHER Windows Update. I installed that one and it fixed the problem. i guess Microsoft and HP have had this problem before, So it’s already been fixed. But rather than fix it seamlessly, you have to do one set of updates, get the problem. And then then when the next update comes down, it gets fixed. pretty crappy way to do business. But I guess that’s what we’re stuck with."}
