@Tommygun612, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. 

I understand your HP printer is set up correctly, connected to Wi-Fi, and feeding paper, but not printing anything on the page. Let’s walk through some steps to resolve this issue.

Check Ink or Toner Levels

• Make sure your printer has sufficient ink or toner.
• On most HP printers, you can check this via the printer’s control panel or the HP Smart app.

Run Print Head Cleaning (for Inkjet Printers)

• If the printer feeds paper but prints blank pages, the print heads might be clogged.
• Use the printer’s control panel or HP Smart app to run a print head cleaning:
  • Go to Settings > Printer Maintenance > Clean Printhead.
  • You may need to run this 2–3 times for best results.

Check Printer Driver

• Ensure the correct and latest driver is installed:
  • Visit HP Software and Driver Downloads.
  • Enter your printer model and download the recommended driver.

Set the Correct Printer as Default

• On Windows:
  • Go to Control Panel > Devices and Printers.
  • Right-click your printer and select Set as default printer.

Print a Test Page

• Try printing a test page from the printer’s control panel or from your computer:
  • On Windows: Settings > Devices > Printers & scanners > [Your Printer] > Manage > Print a test page.

Firmware Update

• Outdated firmware can cause printing issues.
• Update your printer firmware via the HP Smart app or from the HP Support site. 

I hope this helps. 

Take care and have a good day.
