HP Deskjet GT 5810
macOS 10.12 Sierra

Hi I downloaded HP Easy Start but when I download the essentials it just loads then gets an error and tells me to check my internet connection. I have a stable internet connection at home but it just keeps on getting that error when i try to reinstall. also i tried to add the printer to my mac and it got connected but when i print, it says it's printing but actually it's not and the power button just keeps on blinking. Would greatly appreciate a quick response. Thank you.

Hi @CaviteMagic,

Welcome to HP Forums, this is a great place to get support, find answers and tips.


Thank you for posting your query. I'll be more than glad to help you.

I understand that you are facing issues with your HP Deskjet GT 5810 wherein it does not print and power light keeps blinking.

 

I suggest that you reset the printing systems by following the steps in the link: Resetting the Printing System (Mac)

 

Let me know if this works.
 

You have a good day ahead.
