Hi @Liz0819,

Welcome to HP Support Community.  

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

To find the recent print history on an HP 8020 printer, you typically need to access the printer's web interface or use the printer's control panel. Here are the steps to find recent print history.

Access the Printer's Web Interface: 

• a. Ensure that your HP 8020 printer is connected to your Wi-Fi network and powered on. 
• b. Open a web browser on a computer that is also connected to the same Wi-Fi network. 
• c. Enter the printer's IP address in the web browser's address bar. You can usually find the printer's IP address by printing a network configuration page from the printer's control panel.

Log In to the Printer's Web Interface:

• a. Once you enter the IP address, you should see the HP printer's web interface. You might be prompted to log in. 
• b. Log in with the appropriate credentials. If you haven't set up a username and password for your printer, the default login details may be available in the printer's manual or on a label on the printer itself.

Access Print History: 

• a. After logging in, navigate through the printer's web interface to find the print history or print log section. This can vary depending on the printer's firmware and settings. 
• b. Look for a "Job Log" or "Print History" option. Click on it to view the recent print jobs.

View and Manage Print History: 

• a. In the print history section, you should see a list of recent print jobs, including details like the job name, date and time, and possibly the username or device that initiated the print job. 
• b. You may have options to filter or sort the print history to find specific print jobs.

Print or Save the History (Optional): 

a. If you need to keep a record of the print history, you can often print the log or save it as a PDF or other file format directly from the web interface.

Please note that the availability and features of the print history section can vary depending on the printer's firmware and settings.

I hope this helps. 
 

Take care and have a good day.
