@ValinaG, Welcome to HP Support Community,

 

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

 

Cancel Jobs on the Printer

On the printer control panel, look for a Cancel or Stop button (usually a red X or physical button).

Press it to cancel the current job.

 

Clear the Print Queue in Windows 11

Press Windows + S, type “Printers & Scanners”, and hit Enter.

Click on your HP DeskJet 2755e.

Click “Open print queue”.

Right-click any stuck print jobs and select Cancel.

If that doesn’t work, continue to Step 3 below.

 

Restart Print Spooler (Windows):

  1. Search services in the search box. Open the service menu.
  2. In the list, find Print Spooler.
  3. Right-click Print Spooler and click Restart.
    • If it’s stopped, click Start instead.
  4. Close the window. Check if the issue persists 

Restart the Printer and Computer

  • Turn off the printer. Unplug the power cord from the printer and the wall outlet.
  • Wait for at least 60 seconds. Plug the power cord back in and turn on the printer.
  • Restart your computer to ensure there are no pending software issues.

I hope this helps.

Please feel free to reply here if you have any questions or if you need further clarification on any of the steps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
