Hi @Paul945,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I'd be happy to help you! 

 

I understand that you are having issues with the touch screen.

 

If the touch screen on your HP Photosmart Plus E-All-In-One Printer - B210a is not responding, you can try the following troubleshooting steps:

 

Basic Troubleshooting

Power Cycle the Printer:

  • Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source.
  • Wait for at least 60 seconds.
  • Plug the printer back in and turn it on.

Check for Physical Damage:

  • Inspect the touch screen for any visible damage, cracks, or debris.
  • Clean the touch screen gently with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Firmware Update

  1. Update Printer Firmware:
    • Visit the HP Support website and check for any firmware updates for your printer model.
    • Download and install any available updates.

Reset the Printer

  1. Reset the Printer:
    • With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the printer.
    • Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
    • Wait for at least 60 seconds.
    • Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet and reconnect it to the printer.
    • Turn on the printer.

Check Touch Screen Calibration

  1. Calibrate the Touch Screen:
    • If your printer has a touchscreen calibration option, try to access it and calibrate the touchscreen. Refer to your printer's manual for instructions on how to do this.

Hard Reset

  1. Perform a Hard Reset:
    • Turn off the printer and unplug the power cord.
    • Press and hold the # and 6 buttons on the printer.
    • While holding these buttons, plug the power cord back in.
    • Continue holding the buttons until the printer turns on and starts resetting.
  • If the touch screen still does not respond after trying the above steps, it might be a hardware issue.
  • Contact HP Phone Support for further assistance.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
