Yeah I have no idea what is wrong with this thing, pulled it out the boxed, fired it up followed the instructions to the letter with the HP smart app thing, worked perfectly. printed like 60 pages and was all smiles.
fast forward 5 days later and the computer thinks the printer is off, however it is on, and the HP smart app thinks its ready. after several attempts to restart and then reinstall, no real changes. the Computer no longer thinks the printer is offline, both these jv level skynet machines agree the printer is on and connected, but when I print the que says there is an error. the HP smart trouble shooter says that I am crazy and there is "no error" as it could not find one, nothing blinks or pops up on the printer either.
It is a HP ENVY 5055, that is connected via wi-fi per the setup guide.
not really sure what else to do, I have offered it sacrifices, in hopes of appeasing it, but it appears I have fallen out of favor and its cold robotic heart no longer cares. running out of fatted calfs to slaughter over here, any advice would be great, sounds like the WRS123dick user above had similar issues. how did you help them defeat their adversarial printer. i sit broken and defeated awaiting your assistance.
