Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

Let's reset the printer.

 

Go to Preferences>Restore defaults: Select to restore printer defaults: Yes or No. Selecting Yes restores the original factory preferences. 

 

Once done, you can always change the language from Preferences>Language: Select to change the language or country/region setting. Choose from Select language and Select country/region. The printer screen displays text in the language you choose. The menu lists paper sizes and other options specific to the chosen language.

 

Let me know if this helps.

 

If the information I've provided was helpful, give us some reinforcement by clicking the "Accept as solution" button, that'll help us and others see that we've got the answers!

 

Thanks!

Have a great day!
