HP ENVY 6455e
is not printing.
HP ENVY 6455e is not printing? If the printer accepts the job but produces nothing, start with the queue, paper, and ink or toner checks. Those catch common failures without wasting a driver reinstall. For this HP ENVY 6455e, pay special attention to HP Smart, 67-series cartridges, ADF sensing, and duplex paper feed.
Try these in order.
Stop as soon as the printer behaves. Each step removes one likely cause without changing settings you may need later.
- 01
Print a built-in test page
Use the printer control panel to print a nozzle check, configuration page, or quality report. If that works, the printer is okay and the problem is on the computer. On the HP ENVY 6455e, use HP Smart or the printer control panel for this check.
- 02
Clear the queue and choose the right device
Cancel old jobs, close duplicate printer windows, and confirm the selected printer name matches the device on your desk.
- 03
Reload paper and check the cover
Remove the stack, fan the sheets, set the guides snugly, and close every access door until it clicks.
Usually one of these.
- HP Smart, 67-series cartridges, ADF sensing, and duplex paper feed is the model-specific checkpoint to verify first.
- The wrong printer or a paused queue is selected.
- Paper is loaded in the wrong tray or the paper guides are too tight.
Move to the deeper fix.
Run one maintenance cycle
Run the standard cleaning, alignment, or drum-cleaning routine once, then print a quality check. Repeating maintenance back-to-back can waste supplies.
Install the manufacturer driver
If the built-in test page works but computer jobs do not, remove the generic driver and install the official model package for your operating system. Use the official HP support page for the exact HP ENVY 6455e package before changing firmware or resetting the device.
Before you reset everything.
Why does my HP ENVY 6455e say Printing but do nothing?
The queue may be stuck, the selected printer may be a duplicate, or the printer may be waiting for a cover, paper, cartridge, or toner assembly to be reseated. On this model, start with HP Smart and the official support instructions.
Should I reset the printer before checking the queue?
No. A queue clear and a built-in test page are safer first checks and preserve the current network settings.
