@VPCENERGY, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding Printer Issues!
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.
If your printer won't print and displays an error message indicating printer issues, try the following troubleshooting steps:
Check For Error Messages:
- Review the specific error message displayed on the printer screen or computer. This can provide clues about the exact issue.
Restart Printer and Router:
- Turn off the printer and router.
- After a few moments, turn them back on.
- Check if the printer connects to the network and retry printing.
Check Network Connection:
- Ensure the printer is connected to the internet directly via Wi-Fi or Ethernet; a USB connection to a computer is not sufficient.
- Verify that the blue indicator light on your printer is steady if connected wirelessly. For Ethernet connections, check the light next to the Ethernet port.
- If the connection light isn’t stable, reconfigure the Wi-Fi or Ethernet setup on the printer.
Check Router and Internet Connection:
- Ensure your router is connected to the internet. You can test this by connecting another device to the same network.
- If unable to connect to the internet, restart your router. If the issue persists, contact your network service provider.
Hope this helps!
Take care, and have an amazing day!
