Hi @Danny5161,

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your printer!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

Try these steps:

Restart the Printer:

• Turn off your printer and disconnect the power cable.
• Wait at least 60 seconds before reconnecting the power cable and turning the printer back on.

Check for Jammed Paper or Cartridge Issues:

• Open the printer and ensure there are no paper jams or obstructions.
• Check the ink cartridges to ensure they are properly installed and seated correctly in their slots.

Firmware Update:

• Ensure your printer firmware is up to date. Visit the HP Support website to check for any available firmware updates.

Reset the Printer:

• Perform a printer reset by unplugging the printer while it's on and then plugging it back in after a minute. This can clear minor errors that might lead to failure messages.

Driver Update:

• Update or reinstall the printer drivers on your Windows 11 system. Make sure you're using the correct driver specifically for your printer model.

Check Printer Queue:

• Clear any stuck print jobs that might be causing an error. Go to Control Panel > Devices and Printers, locate your printer, right-click and select "See what's printing". Cancel any stalled or queued jobs.

Network Connectivity:

• If the printer is networked, ensure it's properly connected to your network and there is no interruption in connectivity.

I hope this helps.
