@Stan234, Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your printer pausing when printing a page without error page!  
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution. 

It seems like the printer is having trouble completing the print job, and the blinking power button typically indicates a hardware or communication issue. Here's a step-by-step troubleshooting guide:

Check Printer Status:

• Ensure the printer is turned on and there are no paper jams.
• Check for any error messages or lights (other than the blinking power light).

Restart the Printer:

• Turn off the printer.
• Unplug it from the power source, wait for 60 seconds, then plug it back in.
• Turn the printer on again.

Check the Printer Queue:

• On your computer, go to the printer settings and check the print queue.
• Clear any stuck print jobs.

Check for Connectivity:

• If using a wireless connection, ensure the printer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your computer.
• For USB, check the cable and connection to ensure it's secure.

Update Printer Drivers:

• Go to the HP website and download the latest drivers for the DeskJet 2852e.
• Install them and try printing again.

Check for Paper or Ink Issues:

• Ensure there is enough paper and ink in the printer.
• Check for any blockage in the ink cartridges or paper tray.

Perform Printer Reset:

• If the issue persists, you can perform a hard reset on the printer. Refer to the printer’s manual for instructions on how to reset it.

Take care, and have an amazing day!
