Hi @terryb3

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you with the  "Printhead Problem" issue. 

 

To hard /power reset the printer-

  1. With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
  2. Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
  3. Wait at least 60 seconds.
  4. Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
  5. Reconnect the power cord to the printer.
  6. Turn the printer on. HP recommends plugging the printer directly into a wall outlet.

Try the steps in the documents to resolve the error - Error Indicates Faulty Printhead
