Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:

• Are you able to make copies from the printer? 
• Are you not able to print JPG?

Keep me posted for further assistance.

Yes I can make copies.  No I can't print a jpg.  Also today I discovered I can't print a pdf file.
