Deskjet 1010 not printing

[Oiddocrop]

Hello, 

yesterday I bought two new  toners for my printer, loaded them in it, loaded paper; but the power light continued blinking rapidly and the printer never started working.

I've checked the troubleshooting list on the HP site and made every step suggested. I also tried to change the USB in which I plugged the printer in, but the printer button continued blinking and blinking and no printing...

What is this?? I really don't know what to do!!!

Thanks a lot

@Oiddocrop,

Thanks for reaching out to us on HP Support Forums! I see from your post that you are having issues while printing from your HP DeskJet printer. Don't worry we'll work together to help you find a solution.

To provide you with an accurate solution, I'll need a few more details:

Are you using genuine HP Ink cartridges or refilled ink cartridges?

Have you tried to do a power reset?

In the meantime, let's try these steps here: 

Perform a Hard reset on the printer and make sure that the printer is connected directly to the wall outlet and not to the surge protector.

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 and then plug back the power cord to the printer.

Turn on the printer and wait till warm-up period finishes and the printer is idle.

I would suggest you follow the steps suggested in the support document for - Blinking Lights on the HP Deskjet 1010 and Deskjet Ink Advantage 1010 Printer Series

If you have followed the steps suggested and still having the issue. I would personally suggest this could be a possible hardware failure with the printer.

I will share you a private message with details. Please watch your inbox for more information.

Let me know if this helps!

Have a great day ahead! 🙂
