Hi @Dino72,
Thank you for your response
Thank you for updating me. Since the basic troubleshooting steps haven’t resolved the issue, we’ll try more solutions directly from HP’s guidelines. The error code 0x61011beb typically suggests a hardware issue, but there are a few more steps to try before seeking replacement parts or repairs.
Here are some recommended steps for resolving this error:
Check the Ink Cartridges and Printhead
Turn off the printer and open the ink cartridge access door.
Remove the ink cartridges.
Check for any obstructions or debris around the ink cartridge area.
Look at the printhead for any clogs or misalignments.
Clean the printhead if necessary, following the instructions in your printer’s manual.
Reinstall the ink cartridges and make sure they are seated correctly.
Update Printer Firmware (Update the firmware on an HP printer | HP® Support)
- Go to the HP Customer Support - Software and Driver Downloads page. Enter your printer model number and search for the latest firmware update. Follow the instructions to download and install the firmware update.
Reset the Printer to Factory Settings
If the error persists after trying the steps above, you can reset the printer to factory settings. This might help clear any software issues.
You may refer to this guide: Restore factory defaults on your HP printer | HP® Support
Note: Resetting the printer will erase any custom settings or preferences.
I hope this helps.
Please feel free to reply here if you have any questions or if you need further clarification on any of the steps.
Take care and have a good day.
