Hi, I have the same problem as the one described below. Apparently the problem was further handled in a private conversation and I do not have the outcome. Can you help me out ?
Hi, My HP 7720 printer/scanner has got itself stuck in the menu area. It will not print and shows as offline in windows. I think that a full reset may do the trick but I cannot get the device to respond.
I have removed the power supply and internet feed end waited for 60 seconds before replacing the power but the problem still exists. The panel shows the 3 icons down the left hand side (home , ?, refresh) and the wi-fi light shows blue. The power button does not seem to do anything.
I also tried to remove power and hold the button down for 60 seconds before reapplying power but the screen display still shows the same.
This is important as the scanner is used to record community bills etc and I do not want to have to replace it as it was working well. The print function has never caused any issues.
Has anybody come across this persisting menu before?
