Hi,

does anyone know how to silently install:
hp scanjet 2300c scanner

Actually it supports a lot of models:

2300c
3500c, 3530c, 3570c, 3570cxi
4500c, 4500cxi, 4570c, 4570cse, 4570cxi
5500c, 5500cxi, 5550c, 5550cxi

It's an auto-archive file which after openning has a *.MSI file:
HP Photo and Imaging 2.0 - Scanners.msi

I tried these switches bwith this file & the Setup.EXE file:
(all possible combinations)
/s /v "/qn REBOOT=Suppress"

but no good...

Setup.exe and Update.exe Command Line Parameters

Quote

switch :
/s : Silent mode

For an InstallScript MSI project, the command Setup.exe /s runs the installation in silent mode, by default based on the responses contained in a response file called Setup.iss in the same directory (response files are created by running Setup.exe with the /r option). To specify an alternative file name or location of the response file, use the /f1 option, described below.

The command Setup.exe /s also suppresses the Setup.exe initialization window for a Basic MSI installation program, but does not read a response file. To run a Basic MSI product silently, run the command line Setup.exe /s /v/qn. (To specify the values of public properties for a silent Basic MSI installation, you can use a command such as Setup.exe /s /v"/qn INSTALLDIR=D:\Destination".)


/L : Setup language

Users can use the /L switch with the decimal language ID to specify the language used by a multi-language installation program.

decimal language ID
1031 = German
1033 = English
1034 = Spanish
1036 = French
1038 = Hungarian
1040 = Italian
1043 = Dutch
1045 = Polish
1049 = Russian


/v : pass arguments to Msiexec

The /v argument is used to pass command line switches and values of public properties through to Msiexec.exe.

During the installation, user can not select which components (HP Share-to-Web, HP Memories Disc Creator) to install or not.
Another stupid HP idea.

HP Memories Disc Creator software allows you to create slide shows and archives of your digital images for display on a PC with a CD player or on a TV with a DVD player … all on one CD.
!unmdhp.cmd

:: uninstall HP Memories Disc 1.0.4.805
MsiExec.exe /X{B376402D-58EA-45EA-BD50-DD924EB67A70} /qn

"methods" of starting a MSI installation

Quote

NB! If you use a setup.exe wrapper that doesn't relay the return values of MSIEXEC.EXE (eg. InstallShield, the previous version anyway), bad for you!
Consider to drop the wrapper if possible and use MSIEXEC.EXE directly.

!install.cmd

:: "HP Photo and Imaging 2.1 - Scanjet 2400 Series" silent install
:: Replace <LETTER> with your CD-ROM Drive or Source Drive letter
:: change <LANGUAGE> with your language
msiexec TRANSFORMS=<LETTER>\hpsw\<LANGUAGE>.mst /i "<LETTER>\hpsw\HP Photo and Imaging 2.1 - Scanjet 2400 Series.msi" /qn REBOOT=ReallySuppress

NB: Using this method don't install HP Memories Disc Creator software
