@Jocabiness63, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

 

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

It's frustrating when a printer stops working, especially after you've already tried troubleshooting. Since your HP DeskJet 2852e All-in-One Printer isn't printing, and you've already attempted some fixes, let's go through some additional steps to try and resolve the issue.

Restart Everything:

  • Turn off the printer, unplug it from power.
  • Restart your computer and Wi-Fi router.
  • After 1–2 minutes, plug the printer back in and turn it on.

Check Wi-Fi Connection:

  • On the printer, press and hold the Wi-Fi and Cancel buttons until the power light blinks.
  • Reconnect the printer to your Wi-Fi using the HP Smart app.
  • Ensure the printer shows a strong signal and has an IP address.

Run HP Print and Scan Doctor:

  • Download from HP official site.
  • This tool can automatically detect and fix many printing issues.

Check Ink and Paper:

  • Make sure ink cartridges are not empty or clogged.
  • Remove and reinsert cartridges.
  • Check for paper jams or misfeeds.

Clear Print Queue:

  • On your computer, go to Devices and Printers.
  • Right-click your printer → See what’s printing → Cancel all documents.

Set as Default Printer:

  • In Devices and Printers, right-click your printer → Set as default printer.

Update or Reinstall Drivers:

  • Go to HP’s driver download page and install the latest software for your model.

Factory Reset the Printer (if nothing else works):

  • Press and hold the Cancel and Wireless buttons for 5 seconds until the power light blinks.
  • Reconnect using the HP Smart app.

I hope this helps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
