I have a Color LaserJet Pro MFP 4302fdq that I can't turn on.
I have tryed 2 diffrend cabels, have had it unplugged for over 10 minutes and then tried again but with the same result (no result).
Is there a way I can try to get it powered up again?

@CamillaV, Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding the HP Color LaserJet Pro
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution. We hope our assistance has been helpful!
If your HP Color LaserJet Pro is not turning on, you can try the following troubleshooting steps to identify and possibly resolve the issue:
-
Check the Power Source:
- Ensure that the power outlet you are using is functioning by testing it with another device.
- Try plugging the printer into a different outlet to rule out an issue with the power socket.
-
Inspect Power Cable:
- Although you have already tried different cables, ensure they are securely connected to both the power source and printer.
- Check for any visible signs of damage on the cables.
-
Use an Alternative Power Adapter:
- If your printer uses an external power adapter, consider testing with a similar adapter, ensuring it matches specifications.
-
Perform a Hard Reset:
- Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the wall outlet.
- Wait for about 60 seconds.
- Reconnect the power cord to the printer and then to the wall outlet directly, bypassing any surge protectors or power strips.
-
Check for Any LED Indications:
- Look for any LED light indications that may appear when you have connected the power. This might give a clue whether the printer is receiving power even if not fully turning on.
-
Examine the Power Button:
- Ensure that the power button is not jammed or stuck.
- Press and hold the power button for a few seconds to see if the printer responds.
-
Evaluate Internal Components:
- Verify that no foreign objects have impeded the internal components or mechanisms of the printer.
- Open all covers and inspect for paper jams or other obstacles.
