Office jet Pro 8610 issue

[Hunter11215]

“Printer Failure” error showing. I’ve tried unplugging it and plugging it back in, but every time I restart the printer or try to do anything else, this error comes up: “There is a problem with the printer or ink system. Turn printer off, then on. If problem persists contact HP.” Obviously, it cannot print currently. Please help, thanks!

Hi @Hunter11215,

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

I'd be glad to help you! 

Use the following steps to resolve the error.

• Turn the printer off and then back on.
• If the error message persists, make sure that the printer is level using the "round object roll test." Face the supply door and then place a small round object (such as a ball or marble) on top of the printer. Ideally the round object should not roll, indicating that the printer is level. But from an ink supplies standpoint, if the object rolls to the back and to the left, the printer is probably level. If the object rolls in any other direction, level the printer.
• When the printer is level, continue to the next step.
• Open the Embedded Web Server (EWS) by entering the printer's IP address into a web browser. Check to see which supplies are in an error state. Remove any supplies that indicate an error from the printer. If any of them feel low or empty, replace those supplies with new supplies.
• If the error persists, or if the EWS cannot be opened, replace all of the supplies with new ink cartridges.
• If the error persists, contact customer support at www.hp.com/go/contactHP, or contact an HP-authorized service or support provider.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance
