I Bought A HP Smart Tank 790 Printer Last Night, Today Morning I Went For Setup, So I Did All The Steps It Guided Me, But After I Installed My Printheads, It Showed "HP Software Is Setting Up The Printer, Please Wait", Then I Saw On My Mobile, My HP Smart App's Session Was Expired And I Was Logged Out Of My Account. When I Logged In, I Could Not Find My Printer, Nor I Can Setup It Again.
now my printer is stuck at that screen only. I Tried To Reset Network Seetings, But It Showed "Busy, Please Wait".
Anyone Please Help Me, It's Urgent

Hello,
Open the HP SMART APP and click the plus sign to add your new printer. Follow the prompts in HP Smart to connect and set up your printer.
If the printer is still stuck on the setup screen then I'd suggest you to unplug the power cord from back of the printer while the printer is ON.
Wait for 60 seconds and then plug in the power cord to the printer. Now follow the on-screen instructions on the printer.

Hello,
Even when the buttons are not lit, you'd see a fainted impression (icon) of the buttons, mostly in faded grey color.
