HP OfficeJet 3830 All-in-One Printer

Help please. My computer said error in the screen. I’m terrible at this stuff. I pushed the button to turn it off. It would not turn back on. So I unplugged it, plugged back in. Nothing, still will not turn back on. My warranty has expired so HP will not help. I would appreciate any advice.

 

thanks,

Hollie

Unplug printer from the wall outlet.

If the power cord has a transformer (wall wart) unplug from the printer also.

Press the power button 2-3 times to discharge residual electricity. Wait 60 second then plug back in.

 closest authorized service center
