Hi @1234162,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

I hear your frustration when a printer refuses to print; it can feel like hitting a wall, especially when you need something urgently. Let’s get this sorted step by step.

Common Reasons Why HP Printers Won’t Print

1. Connection Issues
   • Check if your printer is powered on and connected to Wi-Fi or USB.
   • If using Wi-Fi, ensure the printer and computer are on the same network.
      
2. Printer Status
   • On your computer, go to Settings → Devices → Printers & Scanners and confirm your HP printer is set as Default.
   • Make sure it’s not in Offline or Paused mode.
      
3. Clear Print Queue
   • Sometimes, stuck jobs block new prints.
   • Open Print Queue, cancel all jobs, and try again.
      
4. Update Drivers & Firmware
   • Outdated drivers can cause printing failures.
   • Download the latest drivers from HP:
     👉 Official HP® Support
      
5. Run HP App
   • This free HP tool automatically detects and fixes printing issues.
     👉 HP App – For HP Printers, Laptops, and Tech Accessories | HP® Official Site

If You’re Using the HP App

• Open HP app → Check printer status.
• If it shows Not Connected, reconnect using the app’s Add Printer option.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have an amazing day!
