Hello everyone! Need your advice on how to tackle Error 79. I tried most of the available  things so far:

 

Turning it off and plugging the power cable out for a while before plugging it back in. 

 

After the hard reset could not connect my Printer back to the wifi since error 79 appeared faster than I managed to finalize the setting.

 

So now the HP Smart app does not even see the printer. I'm desperate
