After using the printer, the power button flashes. Pressing the button does nothing...won't turn off or on so I have to unplug the printer, wait, then plug it back in to use it again.

@LarryG276, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.
To assist you better, when you plug it back in, does it power ON by itself, or do you have to press the power button?
Check if the power button is damaged.
Unplug the power cable and hold the power button down for 10-15 seconds and release it. Power on the printer and check.
On the printer, go to Setup > Tools > Restore factory settings.
Note: This will delete the wireless settings on the printer and you have to reconnect it to the computer.
If the issue persists, as the printer is out of warranty, I suggest you upgrade the printer. You may visit Hp Store to check the available printers.
Keep me posted for any other assistance.
