Hi @bgraefer,
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for reaching out!
Your HP Smart Tank 7602 is stuck in a “Verifying” loop after a failed firmware update because the update didn’t complete properly. The most effective fix is to manually re‑flash the firmware using a USB drive and the boot loader menu.
Perform a Hard Reset
Turn off the printer.
Unplug the power cable from the printer and wall outlet.
Wait for 2-3 minutes (this clears any residual charge).
Plug the printer directly into a wall outlet (avoid surge protectors).
Turn it back on and check if it moves past validation.I hope this helps
Update Firmware
Kindly refer to this link to update your printer firmware.'
If the issue still persists, refer to the steps on this link to restore factory defaults.
Take care and have an amazing day ahead! 🚀

How can I load the firmware on a usb drive to that I can directly plug into the printer and it will use when powering up? The firmware file you are giving us is an .exe to use only on a computer and the computer cannot see the printer because it is stuck in verifying mode. a bit of a catch 22.
