Printer doesn't eject paper when done printing

[Theoldwizard1]

Sometimes, when I send a print job from my brand new HP Notebook with Windows 10 wirelessly connect (with the latest HP printer driver software) the last page of the print job does not eject.  I found the following error in the Event Viewer

Hi @Theoldwizard1

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

Try restarting the print spooler - 

1. Turn off the printer using the power button.

2. Search Windows for run, and click the Run Windows application in the list of results.

3. Type services.msc in the Run window, and then press Enter on the keyboard.

The Services menu opens.

4. Right-click Print Spooler and select Stop.

5. After the service has been stopped, close the service window and use Windows Explorer to browse to C:\Windows\System32\Spool\PRINTERS.

6. Delete all files inside the PRINTERS folder.

7. Restart your computer.

8. Turn on your printer.

9. Try printing again.

If the issue still persists, Download and install HP Print and Scan Doctor, it is a Windows tool to fix printer issues.  

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

Try re-installing the printer driver using these steps -

1. In the search box, type and open "Uninstall a Program".

2. Look for HP Printer software.

3. Right-click to uninstall.

4. In the search box, type and open “Devices and printers”.

5. In the Devices and Printers, look for your HP printer. If you see it listed right-click on it and choose “Delete” or “Remove Device”.

6. Open the run command with the "Windows key + R" key combo. 

7. Type printui.exe /s and click Ok. (Note: there is a space in between “printui.exe” and “/s”).

8. Click on the "Drivers" tab.

9. Look for HP Printer driver. If you see it Click on it and click “Remove” at the bottom.

10. Select Ok.

11. Select Apply and Ok on the Print Server Properties windows.

12. Close Devices and Printers Once the software and drivers are removed.

13. Restart the computer.

14. Download and install the software and drivers from here.

15. Click on the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions. 

Let me know.

@Theoldwizard1

Are you experiencing this issue while making a copy as well? 

Let me know. 

[Theoldwizard1]

No.   If I wait long enough (2 minutes) the page does eject.
