Hello,
my printer (Officejet8012e) requires a wi-fi update (printer update check) before starting. Download 100% -> update -> restart and then again ... again and again. The power button does not work, the printer does not connect (HP Smart).

I created a mobile hotspot - result the same. No shutdown during installation.

Some ideas? Thanks.

I'm unhappy with the whole situation (my first post) and I don't understand what happened. I'm trying to find information, but I'm even more and more desperate. My printer is out of service for next day and no information here 😞

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

I'd be happy to assist you with the update issue.

 

We'll have to perform a reset on the Printer for this. I have sent you a private message, for more details that cannot be shared in a public post.

 

Please do check your inbox on the communities page for the private message.

 

Let me know if this helps.

 

If the information I've provided was helpful, give us some reinforcement by clicking the Accepted Solution button, that'll help us and others see that we've got the answers!

 

Thanks!

Thanks for your private message, but it doesn't work. Is this really correct instruction for my printer? i can't enter to semi reset menu ... my printer doesn't even have any arrow buttons. Power button only. Please send me correct instruction for my printer, or more detailed. ...I don't know why the "back" button called BL? BL is Back? I press the button (back) as your instructions (it even when not illuminated), but nothing happens.

If i press the power button while power is applying... i see this screen (not illuminated screen), but buttons (back, home) not respond.
