Hi, it would be so great if I could solve this problem.
My M28w printer worked just well until few days ago,
But after the night when I woke up my PC from sleep mode (printer was connected when I turned it into sleep mode) I found that the printer was not waking up. I can find it turned on as I can hear it rolling after opening & closing the cartridge lid but it does not connect to the pc and has no light on its control panel.
So I tried almost everything I could, including reinstallation of firmware, driver software, hp smart, hard reset of the machine etc, and what I only find is that my PC is recognising the printer (connected by USB cable) as "rbx-load".
Could anybody help me solve this problem?
Thanks.

@sisuv, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Let us try to factory reset the printer.
- The reset instructions are specific for your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may corrupt the device.
- I've sent you a private message with reset instructions, follow the reset instruction to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer.
