Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:  

I suggest you do a Hard Reset on the printer and update the firmware for the printer.

• (1) Turn the printer on, if it is not already on.
• (2) Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you continue.
• (3) With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
• (4) Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
• (5) Wait at least 60 seconds.
• (6) Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
• NOTE: HP recommends connecting the printer power cord directly to the wall outlet.
• (7) Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.
• (8) Turn on the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.

The printer might go through a warm-up period. The printer lights might flash, and the carriage might move.

Wait until the warm-up period finishes and your printer is idle and silent before you proceed.
