When installing the full software and drivers for an HP LaserJet MFP M436 in Windows 7, the installation hangs at 99 percent, a fatal error displays, the installation fails, and the printer cannot be found on the network.
This error can occur when running software from the CD that came in the box or from an older file downloaded from HP.com. One or more of the following error messages might display:
-
A fatal error occurred preventing product use.
-
An install operation took too long to execute.
