HP Smart Tank 7602 All-in-One
Microsoft Windows 11

I tried updating the firmware on my 7602 Smart Tank today. It bricked the printer. Error 8AF30001.
I've unplugged and re-plugged the printer, no luck.
I tried the procedure in https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printing-Errors-or-Lights-Stuck-Print-Jobs/Error-8AF30001-on-Smart-Tan.... I reach the menu with the three buttons illuminated, but I can't select the "Reflash" option...the left and right buttons don't move the menu, and pressing "?" executes something, but does not reflash.
Would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

Hello Elohi_NR,
Thanks for your response. I was able to resolve the issue yesterday after repeatedly trying the procedure...the left button in the maintenance and diagnostic display  started working (I'm not sure why) and I was able to reflash the printer.
