Hi @ShoresJ,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I'd be happy to help you! 

 

I understand you are facing a blinking light issue with your HP Deskjet 2755 Printer. Not to worry I will help you to get a resolution to resolve the issue.

 

To assist better:

  • Are you using genuine HP ink cartridges?
  • Was there any recent update on the printer before the issue?

While you respond to that, Let's perform a power drain: 

  • With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer and also unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
  • Remove USB cable, if present.
  • Wait for 2-3 minutes, press and hold the power button on your printer for about 30 seconds to remove any additional charge.
  • Now plug back the power cable straight to a wall outlet without any surge protector or an extension cord (This is important) and then plug back the power cord to the printer.
  • Turn on the printer and wait till the warm-up period finishes and the printer is idle

 

Update the printer firmware 

  • Click here to download and install the latest printer firmware from your product
  • Click here to know different methods of updating the printer firmware.

If the issue persists, then please follow the steps mentioned in this document

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

I bought this printer from a lady on Amazon she said it worked good she just needed to get rid of it because she was moving. I bought  kolor ink HP 67. I can't use it to stop blinking lights, I need to really try and get it on my Wi-Fi.  Should I try a USB cord to my router/modem?

Hi @ShoresJ ,

 

Let's try changing from USB to wifi and see if that helps as a last resort. If not this might need one-on-one interaction over the phone. 

 

 

Remove the USB printer from the computer

  • Disconnect the USB printer from the computer, and then remove it from HP Smart if necessary.
  • Turn off the printer, and then turn off the computer.
  • Disconnect the USB cable from the printer and the computer.
  • Turn on printer and the computer.
  • Close any device setup prompts that display on the computer.
  • If you previously used HP Smart to set up the USB printer, remove the printer from the app.
  • On the app home screen, right-click the printer name and then select Forget This Printer.

Forget the printer menu in HP Smart

Install the HP Smart app

Keep me posted for further assistance.
