Hi @Nshreve,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your printer!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

 

Try these steps:

Check for Error Codes:

  • Look at the control panel display for any error codes or messages. Refer to your printer manual or use the HP Smart app for error descriptions and steps.

Cartridge Inspection:

  • Ensure that ink cartridges are properly installed and have enough ink. If necessary, replace cartridges with genuine HP ones to avoid compatibility issues.
  • Clean the cartridges' contacts gently with a lint-free cloth if the ink alert light blinks.

Paper Handling:

  • Check for paper jams by opening the cartridge access door and cleanout areas. Remove any stuck papers carefully.
  • Ensure paper is loaded correctly in the input tray.

Network Troubleshooting:

  • Ensure that your wireless network is functioning correctly.
  • If the wireless or Wi-Fi Direct light blinks, use the Wi-Fi and Information buttons to run a wireless test and check the network configuration page for error details.

Restart Printer:

  • Turn off the printer, unplug it for a minute, and then plug it back in and turn it on to reset.

Software and Firmware Updates:

  • Ensure your printer firmware and software are up to date. You can do this via the HP Smart app or the embedded web server (EWS).

I hope this helps.
