OfficeJet K550
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hello!

I have an OfficeJet K550 printer - the most durable and well serving printer I've had ever (and I've had dozens of brands and sizes). It is been serving me flawlessly for years!


The problem with it is that the "Troubleshooting Print Quality Issues HP Officejet Pro K550 Printer HP® Support" page disappeared from HP website, it was similar to this one. And since HP Solution Center Software is not availble for this printer, I can't clean the heads or perform any other printer maintenance without the proper key combinations.

 

They were similar to:

 

  • Press and hold the Power button.
  • Press the Cancel button () seven times.
  • Press the Resume button () two times.
  • Release the Power button.

    Please, anyone who knows them, please send them to me.
