As by default, my printer currently has the setting to go to sleep after 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, the screen goes black for 5 seconds or so and gets up again.

I currently have the latest firmware and the printer is connected wirelessly to my router.

I had this issue in the past and created a ticket ([Personal Information Removed]), but can't remember the solution which was proposed (and worked at that time).

@iKu777, Welcome HP Support Community!

 

The only option left is to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer. 

 

The reset instructions are specific for your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may brick the device. 

I've sent you a private message with reset instructions, follow the reset instruction to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer.

Hope this helps!

Maybe some additional details, here is what I tried so far:

-Confirmed sleep mode is set to 5m.

-Confirmed latest firmware is installed

-Performed a cold reset

-Printer is not plugged into a powerbar

-Performed a poweroff for 60 secs

-Made sure I manually set the IP and DNS

 

So far nothing worked. The printer screen shuts of after 5mins, for 5-10 seconds, and then turns on again.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

 

I called the service support and we did perform a bunch of tries and the last one was indeed this 'semi-full reset'. Unfortunately it didn't work and the service support organized for a new unit for me given it's still under warranty. 

 

That being said, I still flag your answer as a solution, given it could be helpful for others.
