Hi @Jack-63,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

An "E6" error code on an HP printer typically indicates a problem with the printhead or a related internal issue. Here’s what you can try to resolve it.

Check the Printhead:

• Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source.
• Open the printer's access door to reach the printhead.
• Remove the printhead carefully according to the printer’s manual.
• Inspect the printhead for any visible issues or debris.
• Reinstall the printhead securely.

Check for Paper Jams:

• Ensure there are no paper jams in the printer.
• Remove any stuck paper or foreign objects.

Clean the Printhead:

• If your printer model allows for printhead cleaning via its software, you can use that option.
• Alternatively, you can gently clean the printhead with a lint-free cloth and distilled water.

Reset the Printer:

• Turn off the printer, unplug it, wait for about 60 seconds, then plug it back in and turn it on.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
