HP deskjet F2480
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a HP deskjet F2480 that will not print or copy, but can scan. I just got this printer from my brother who has never had a problem with it. However, when I try to print the printer makes some attempt at printing, and then displays the "E" message with the orange resume light blinking. The power light is not blinking and there is ink and paper in the printer. I tried resetting the printer unsuccessfully. I also checked for jammed paper, which is not present. Any tips on where to go from here?

 

Thanks!

Kitty

@khbolt,

Welcome to HP Forums, this is a great place to get support, find answers and tips.


Thank you for posting your query, I'll be more than glad to help you.

I understand that you are unable to print from your HP Deskjet F4280 All-in-One Printer.

 

This issue could occur if there is an issue with the carriage or paper feed rollers.

 

Let's go through a few steps to troubleshoot this issue.

 

And here's the step by step guide for you in the link: Blinking Lights

 

Note: Please follow the steps under the sublink "Issue: The Resume light blinks" in the above document.

 

Let me know how this works.
 

You have a good day ahead.

I understand that the issue has not resolved after following the steps mentioned in the previous interaction.

 

This could be a hardware issue with the unit.
