HP OfficeJet Pro 9015e All-in-One Printer
Microsoft Windows 11

Can you turn off sleep mode completely on an HP OfficeJet Pro 9015e series printer?  When I go to the printer's IP Address via a browser and go to Settings... Power Management... I do not see any options that can be configured to prevent the printer for going to sleep entirely.

Every time I look in the HP Smart app, My HP OfficeJet Pro 9015e shows "Printer is Asleep".  Does that just mean that it is not actively printing?  If so, I would think that the status should be "Idle" and not "Printer is Asleep". 🤷‍♂️

@TekGamer,

Thank you for your reply 

Let's perform a power drain: 

  • With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer and also unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
  • Remove USB cable, if present.
  • Wait for 2-3 minutes, press and hold the power button on your printer for about 30 seconds to remove any additional charge.
  • Now plug back the power cable straight to a wall outlet without any surge protector or an extension cord (This is important) and then plug back the power cord to the printer.
  • Turn on the printer and wait till warm-up period finishes and the printer is idle

Update the printer firmware
