**Washer Method**

Since the solid is generated by revolving the region about the vertical line $$ x=2 $$, it is natural to take horizontal slices. In a horizontal slice at a fixed $$ y $$ (with $$ 0\le y\le 4 $$), the region extends in $$ x $$ from the line $$ x=0 $$ to the curve $$ y=x^2 $$, which can be solved for $$ x $$ as
$$
x=\sqrt{y}.
$$
When this horizontal segment is revolved about $$ x=2 $$ the distance from a point $$ x $$ to the line $$ x=2 $$ is $$ 2-x $$.

For a given $$ y $$:
- The **outer radius** corresponds to the leftmost point $$ x=0 $$ and is 
  $$
  R(y)=2-0=2.
  $$
- The **inner radius** corresponds to the rightmost point $$ x=\sqrt{y} $$ and is 
  $$
  r(y)=2-\sqrt{y}.
  $$

Thus, the area of the washer is
$$
A(y)=\pi\Bigl(R(y)^2-r(y)^2\Bigr)
=\pi\Bigl[4-(2-\sqrt{y})^2\Bigr].
$$

The volume using washers is then given by
$$
V=\pi\int_{y=0}^{4}\Bigl[4-(2-\sqrt{y})^2\Bigr]\,dy.
$$

**Shell Method**

Using vertical slices is also possible. A typical vertical slice at position $$ x $$ (with $$ 0\le x\le 2 $$ because the intersection of $$ y=x^2 $$ and $$ y=4 $$ occurs at $$ x=2 $$) has height determined by the difference between $$ y=4 $$ and $$ y=x^2 $$:
$$
\text{Height} = 4 - x^2.
$$
The distance from the slice at $$ x $$ to the line $$ x=2 $$ is the radius
$$
\text{Radius}=2-x.
$$

Thus, the volume using shells is
$$
V=2\pi\int_{x=0}^{2}(2-x)(4-x^2)\,dx.
$$

**Final Answers**

Washer Method (as a single integral):
$$
\boxed{V=\pi\int_{0}^{4}\Bigl[4-(2-\sqrt{y})^2\Bigr]\,dy.}
$$

Shell Method:
$$
\boxed{V=2\pi\int_{0}^{2}(2-x)(4-x^2)\,dx.}
$$
**Washer Method:** $$ V = \pi \int_{0}^{4} \left[4 - (2 - \sqrt{y})^2\right] \, dy $$ **Shell Method:** $$ V = 2\pi \int_{0}^{2} (2 - x)(4 - x^2) \, dx $$
