Hi all. I have a HP Officejet 4630 e-All-in-One Printer series that I cannot get to regularly print on wireless. Wireless diagnostic test results says there are no problems. I have ensured all software updates. I've reset to factory defaults. New cartridges. Here's the issue: Each time I send something to print, I receive a message that user intervention is required. No further insight. Sometimes, the page(s) will just start printing when I've done nothing (and decided to go to FedEx!), or when I've restarted the printer or when I've switched off/on wireless. I've tried all different orders of starting printer, sending a doc to print, etc. Any thoughts? (P.S. apologies for the subject. Kept coming up as an error)
