HP Officejet 6962 All-in-One Printer series

So, add me to the massive list of people to get the "problem with print head" message!!  I bought this new printer 1 month ago !!  ONE MONTH OLD and it's already not useable.  I've tried to contact HP via FB Messenger to no avail!  Nobody replied and it's been two days since I posted.  Needless to say... I'm extremely unhappy and certainly won't evey buy another HP printer again!

As I stated... I already tried all of the generic steps to try and resolve the issue, with no luck.  Thanks for the genuine cookie cutter response though.  I can't imagine how many times a day you send out that message format to people.  I will just continue to try to get ahold of someone from HP that can help.

Hi @RGDAY,

 

I reviewed the quick post. I understand perfectly where you come from. After performing the steps the situation remains. Your time and efforts are greatly appreciated. Now considering the situation, I would suggest that you contact HP phone support as you will be provided assistance in real time.

 

I wish I could do something more here like waving a magic wand or pulling rabbits out of the hat to get the printer going for you. Unfortunately, that is only wishful thinking. But trust me I honestly attempted to help you here. There are certain issues that may not be fixable on HP forums if it is a hardware issue. There is more to it than meets the eye. Please follow the steps to contact HP support from my previous post.

 

I hope you get a lasting resolution when you contact HP support. I will keep my fingers crossed. Break some good news that is music to your ears and mine.

 

To simply say thanks, please click the "Thumbs Up" button to give me a Kudos to appreciate my efforts to help. If this helps, please mark this as Accepted Solution as it will help several others with the same issue to get it resolved without hassles.

Take care and have a blessed year ahead. Stay healthy and smile big. 🙂

Cheers!
