Hi @robert1212

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you with the printhead error. 

 

To better assist you - May I have the exact model name of the printer? Refer to this document for steps to find the product details. Do not share any of your personal information such as serial, phone number, email ID, etc. 

 

While you respond to that, try these steps - HP Printers - Printhead Errors
 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
