Hi @GauravK6,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
Continuous roller movement in an HP Ink Tank Wireless 415 printer can indicate a few potential issues. Here’s a step-by-step guide to troubleshoot and hopefully resolve the problem.
Power Cycle the Printer:
- Turn off the printer.
- Unplug it from the power source.
- Wait for about 60 seconds.
- Plug the printer back in and turn it on.
Check for Paper Jams:
- Open the printer’s paper input tray and check for any stuck paper or obstructions.
- Check the output tray and inside the printer for any paper jams.
Inspect the Rollers:
- Open the access door to the ink cartridges and look at the rollers.
- Ensure that there are no foreign objects or bits of paper causing obstruction.
Clean the Rollers:
- Use a soft, lint-free cloth lightly moistened with water to clean the rollers. Do not use alcohol or any other cleaning solution.
- Rotate the rollers manually while cleaning to ensure you cover all areas.
Reset the Printer:
- Perform a hard reset by holding down the power button for about 10-15 seconds, then release it.
- Allow the printer to complete its reset process and see if the issue is resolved.
Check Printer Settings:
- Ensure that the printer settings on your computer are not causing the rollers to move continuously. Sometimes, a stuck print job can cause continuous movement.
Firmware Update:
- Ensure that the printer’s firmware is up to date. Check the HP website for any available firmware updates for your model.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
