Hi vicksman, welcome to the forums:)

I saw you mention that your Deskjet 1510 is in an error state. I would love to help out where I can with this. Please let me know if you can make copies from the printer itself and let me know which operating system you are running on your computer.

Also include all of the troubleshooting steps you have already tried to try and resolve the problem.

Thank you:)

Hi, 

I've got the HP Photosmart 5520 series, I've come across the problem of my printer being in an error state. I fixed this by restarting the connection between my laptop and the printer (through the printer settings) and it worked again. 

I thought I'd put up this message here since it was so hard for me to find a solution. Hoped this work for you.

What does "Printer in error state" mean and how does one get it out of "the error state"?

Hi there @Nevford , welcome to the forums:)

I will gladly do my best to help you with the "error state" message you are seeing on your printer.

Please let me know which model of printer you have: How Do I Find My Model Number?

Hi there @Nevford ,

Both of the models that you have are commercial printers. Post this concern in the HP Enterprise Business Community for these models for the best answers and suggestions.

Happy Monday:)

Thank for that - it seems that I am a total dork - the **bleep** thing wasn't connected.

The USB had come out when I moved the computer to the back of my desk!

Doh!
