HP Photosmart C7280 Printer freezes during printing

I have a problem with the printer and or driver on my Photosmart C7280 causes the printer to stop printing after 2 pages when in automatic mode. It still says it's printing, but doesn't do anything and you can't cancel the job on the printer and you can't shut the printer down. The only way to resolve the problem is to unplug the printer. Then it says not to shut it down improperly or it may damage the printer, but there's no other way to resolve the issue. I tried using the printer utility and that didn't resolve the problem. I also reinstalled the driver, still no luck. I am running Windows 7.0.

Re: HP Photosmart C7280 Printer freezes during printing

I own a HP Photosmart C7280 All-In- One Printer.   It is about 2 or 3 years old.  I couldn't use it wireless so we connected it with USB wire.  Now all I can print is one or two pages and it freezes up on me.  The only way to get it work again is to unplug the back and replug it.  Again, all I get is 2 more pages.  What can I do to repair this problem?
