Error light I can’t identify.
After start up printer flashes Paper (orange), all icons on screen plus orange light, and info light (white) and power light (white).
Anyone know what that is and how to fix?
Thanks! Michael

@Michael1999, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
I understand you are not able to print due to this error.
Reset the printer
- With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
- Wait at least 60 seconds.
- Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.
- Turn ON the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.
- Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you proceed.
Note: HP recommends connecting the printer directly to a wall outlet rather than a surge protector or a power strip.
