I have a Bonjour Malfunction and cannot print

What the heck is a Bonjour Malfunction and do I fix it?

Hi @Lynguist,

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

Thanks for posting your query! We're here to help you get back up and running.

An "HP Bonjour Malfunction" means that your HP printer is unable to properly communicate with your network due to a problem with Apple's Bonjour service, which is used for automatic device discovery, and as a result you cannot print anything to fix this.

You can try resetting your printer's network settings, reconnecting the printer to your network, updating printer drivers, and restarting both your printer and computer.

To better assist you, could you please share your printer's serial number or product number with us via private message? 

Need help finding your product number? No worries! Check out this handy guide:
