“I connected my 12-year-old HP laptop (Windows 7) to a HP6E309F (HP ENVY 5530 series) printer via cable, and it does not work. For this special case, is there a printer that is cable compatible? Wi-Fi works but I'm trying to avoid that - technical reasons.”

Try the cable on another computer if it works then it’s the laptop connection. Also you can update the drivers for the wired connection.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I would suggest uninstalling the current drivers. Then go to http://123.hp.com to get the drivers for the Envy 5530. There are drivers for Windows 7 and Envy 5530. If you are going to connect directly to the computer, you would need the USB A to B cable. For further assistance, I would suggest reaching out to HP Support or the Geek Squad at Best Buy.
