Hi @Wollo,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
The flashing yellow light on your HP 6400e printer usually indicates a problem that needs attention. Here are some general steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue.
- Check for Paper Jams: Ensure there are no paper jams in the printer. Open all access doors and check for any stuck paper. If you find any, carefully remove it.
- Check Ink or Toner Levels: Verify the ink or toner levels in your printer. Low levels can trigger warning lights. Replace cartridges if necessary.
- Inspect for Hardware Issues: Make sure all printer components are properly seated. Check for any loose cables or connections. Power off the printer, unplug it, and then plug it back in.
- Restart the Printer: Turn off the printer, wait for a few minutes, and then turn it back on. Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve minor issues.
- Update Printer Drivers: Ensure that you have the latest drivers installed for your printer. Visit the HP website to download and install the most up-to-date drivers.
- Reset the Printer: Some printers have a reset button or sequence. Consult your printer's manual for instructions on how to reset it.
- Check for Error Messages: Look for any error messages on the printer's display panel or on your computer. These messages can provide clues about the nature of the issue.
- Run a Printer Self-Test: Many printers have a self-test or diagnostic mode. Consult your printer manual for instructions on how to run a self-test. This can help identify specific issues.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
