HP Deskjet F2430 paper light blinking error
01-03-2018 05:00 PM
The yellow warning light for paper on the printer keeps blinking even though there is paper in it. I've already tried resetting it and cleaning and it's still doing the same thing. I also get a message saying "Printer is in an error state" on my computer. What can i do to fix it?
