Hi Dont-Ask,
I will send you a PM (Private Message), but before we begin, please review the HP Privacy Statement .
This Privacy Statement informs you of our privacy practices and of the choices you can make about the way information about you and your online activity is collected and how that information is used. This statement is readily available on our HP.com home page and at the bottom of every HP web page.
There are an increasing number of posts in this forum and elsewhere in the internet with the steps to do a resets on different printers. The reset itself will sometimes fix problems, so the reset is not the issue.
Some resets require you to enter button combinations to open special menus on your printer that you were never meant to access. These special menus are used by the developers and support personnel for debugging issues, but they are not meant for untrained users and can have unintended results. One wrong button push and you no could no longer have a printer, but instead a pricey paper weight. To top it off, if you do happen to "brick" the printer this way, it is considered customer induced damage, and voids the warranty automatically. These resets are only meant to be given out and used as a last resort, and under direct instruction of a HP tech support representative. They should not be done lightly!

Hi Baja30 and Cinrod
I understand that you can't access the menus for the printer and need to reset it.
I will send you a private message with this information.
In the forum beside your handle name just click on the envelope to view it.
If you need more assistance just let me know.

Thank you for replyibng Gemini, but that solution you emailed me didn't work. I held in the right arrow and cancel button (x) and turned it on. It got to the message that the firmware is corrupt and never changed. I held them in for 3 minutes.

Hi Cinrod
I have checked online and the latest firmware is Version20131028.
Some printer's while in a error state will still do a firmware update.
I have included the URL for the firmware update to try.
If all the troubleshooting has been done and it didn't resolve the issue then I would recommend to call HP Tech Support to inquire about a replacement printer if it is still in warranty or find out about the trade in and trade up program. Click Here.
