Ubuntu

Kindly let me know how to configure an HP ENVY 4507 printer, please. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04.

Asked by Edmond Condillac

I've had to change my printer from HP e3520 to HP ENVY 4507. I could get the drivers to install the e3520 but need help with installing or configuring the ENVY 4507 printer. Most obliged for your kind help.

Was the printer attached and powered when you ran the command?
Does it connect via USB?

The printer works with the USB connection, but stall at stage 2 of 5 when trying the wireless connection method.

After completing all five actions for wireless configuration, the configuration restarts. I cancelled this, but the wireless printing facility did not work.

There was the following output on the terminal:
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:127: RuntimeWarning: PyOS_InputHook is not available for interactive use of PyGTK
  set_interactive(1)
