Keep getting a printer error on my desktop when I try to print on HP27BE57. Its an HP smart tank 7600.

Tried clearing out all print jobs in que and rebooting the printer a few times. It wont print off my desktop but it will print using my smart phone. full of paper and ink so Im good there.

Hi @Buffy68,

Since it prints from your phone, the problem is on the PC side:

  1. Clear the print spooler: press Win+R, type services.msc, stop "Print Spooler", delete everything in C:\Windows\System32\spool\PRINTERS, then start Print Spooler again.
  2. Remove the printer in Settings → Printers and add it again with HP Smart.
  3. Run HP Print and Scan Doctor.
  4. Make sure the PC and printer are on the same network.
