Hi @Transcom ,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
Error Code 41 on an HP LaserJet printer typically indicates a temporary print error. Here are some general steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:
Restart the Printer:
- Turn off the printer, unplug it from the power source, and wait for about 30 seconds.
- Plug the printer back in and turn it on.
Check for Paper Jams:
- Make sure there are no paper jams in the printer. Even a small piece of torn paper can cause issues.
Update or Reinstall the Printer Driver:
- Ensure that you have the latest printer driver installed on your computer. You can download the latest driver from the official HP website.
Check for Firmware Updates:
- Check if there are any firmware updates available for your printer on the HP support website. Updating the firmware can resolve many issues.
Clear Print Queue:
- Clear the print queue on your computer to make sure there are no pending print jobs causing the error.
Try a Different USB Cable or Connection:
- If your printer is connected via USB, try using a different USB cable or connecting to a different USB port on your computer.
Check for System Issues:
- Ensure that your computer is not facing any issues. Restart your computer to rule out any software-related problems.
Factory Reset:
- As a last resort, you can try a factory reset on your printer. Keep in mind that this will reset all settings, including network settings.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
