Hello RevPhil,
Welcome to the forums!
I noticed your post about your printer not installing properly for you on your Windows 8.1.
I would suggest trying to use the HP Print and Scan Doctor to install the printer.
If that doesn't work, please let me know what exactly happens when you try to install, for example, do you see an error message or code? Does the installation stop?
Have you tried installing both USB and wireless methods?
Hope to hear back from you shorly!
Enjoy your weekend,
