two weeks ago I could use my printer. Now I can not open the HP smart app. It says my printer is expired. Everything is updated. Support is not helpful.

@printer_spooler, 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
If your HP Smart app indicates that your HP ENVY 5055 printer is expired, there are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:
Check Internet Connection:
- Make sure your device is connected to a stable internet connection. The HP Smart app requires internet access to communicate with HP servers.
Verify Account Details:
- Ensure that you are logged in with the correct HP account that was used to set up the printer initially.
Update the HP Smart App:
- Verify that you have the latest version of the HP Smart app installed. You can check for updates in your device's app store.
Printer Firmware Update:
- Ensure that your printer's firmware is up-to-date. You can check for firmware updates via the HP Support website or through the printer's settings.
Remove and Re-add Printer:
- In the HP Smart app, try removing the printer and then re-adding it. This can sometimes resolve connectivity issues.
Restart Devices:
- Restart both your printer and the device running the HP Smart app. This can refresh connections and resolve temporary glitches.
Check Printer Settings:
- Access the printer's control panel and ensure there are no errors or warnings displayed. Resetting the printer itself can sometimes clear expired status.
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.
