Hi
When I start printing, an error window pops up on my PC stating that my printer clock is incorrect.
I have tried resetting my printer twice, but even after a semi-full reset, it still doesn't work.
I have printed out the extended self-test diagnostic page where the date and time say 1/1/2001 01:35:52.
I have no idea why this is happening. My printer HP Deskjet 3070A and PC drivers are up to date and the printer is working fine. There is only one thing. The printer skips the normal startup procedure and is immediately ready to print upon turning on. However, I was warned about it in the pop-up window. By the way, I use wireless printing.
I have checked both the Support and Engineering menus but found nothing useful. I also had difficulty understanding some of the information provided.
Any help on this, please..
