Hello, 

 

Its unfortunate to see this error on a new pritner.

 

Did the error show up while you were setting up the printer for the first time, before installing ink ? (Yes/No)

Did the error show up while you were setting up the printer for the first time, After installing ink ? (Yes/No)

May i know if you had printed few pages before the error showed up ? ( Yes/ No)

Hi Jabzi,

 

Thanks for the reply.

The error messages appeared after I had printed out a few pages.

I called the HP support number and they are sending me a brand new replacement printer!

 

Thank you.

Hello jerrywr1, 

 

 

Kindly contact HP Tech Support for further assistance. 

I guess printer need to be replaced.

 

If your printer is Out Of Warranty and if you are in USA, you might be provided with Trade-in option.

 


If you are in US , the toll free # is 1-800-474-6836 .

If you are not in US , then log on to www.hp.com , at bottom-left corner there is a world map icon, click on it and then select the region you belong to, which would then provide support options for you for that region.

Jabzi

I called HP and found there is a defect. My printer was under warranty and HP replaced it.
