Hello all, having problem with my printer. After I turn it on, the following message displays: "Printer Failure" at the top of the screen and this message written under it: "There is a problem with the printer or ink system. Turn printer off, then on. If problem persists, contact HP."
I powered down the printer and turned it back on, same message displaying. Next, I fully unplugged the power overnight and plugged it back in with same results. checked all ink cartridges and they have plenty of ink in them. Has anyone else experienced this issue and found a resolution? Thank you!
