I have the same problem with my office jet 8022. I keep getting the 71.02.4A event code, says there is a problem with the printer to turn it off and back on and if the problem continues to contact support. This printer isn't even a year old. Can you please help me with this?

And is the issue still persists, you might have to perform a semi-full reset on the printer to fix this issue.
The reset instructions are specific for your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may brick the device.
