I have a HP desk jet 4258e printer that has a flashing orange icon on the display panel. I printed the information report and all it says a problem has occurred and will be unable to print. I changed the ink as it was low, I have a steady Wi-Fi blue light, no error messages but nothing still. I am not computer savvy but went to some YouTube videos but was not able to follow it. Please give step by step instructions Thank you

Hi @Belly02
Please take a look at this information about flashing LEDs: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_8734908-8734993-16
The meaning of the flashing LEDs is described.
Perhaps it is due to a defective cartridge?
Or the printer is too far away from the router?
Kind Regards
