Hello, @sbdaddy – Hope you are well 🙂
Thank you for becoming an HP Forum member. It is a fantastic location to get help from the community, get suggestions and find what has worked for others!
I understand that you are getting error 79 with the LaserJet printer. Did you try to update the printer firmware?
If not, go to http://hp.care/2psbT2D to download and update the printer firmware. Restart the printer once done.
If the issue persists, then I’d request you perform a complete reset on the printer. I am sending you a private message with the steps. Please check the mailbox icon at the top right corner of your screen to access your inbox.
Let me know if that helps!
Cheers 🙂

Hi,
I am having the same problems as the post above. My HP 277 flashes Service Error 79 while printing first couple of pages of a 10 page job and then shuts off with paper still in the paper path.
I tried updating the firmware to the latest version, but that has not solved the problem. You mention doing a full reset in the accepted solution -- how would i do that?
THank you

Hello The_Fossette , I have found these amounts on Google, I have exactly the same problem with my HP MFP 277 DW. Can you also send me a message how to reset the printer? Best regards, Thomas Müller (Germany) Translated with Google
