Whenever I try to print something out my printer turns itself off within a couple seconds and says there is a service error 79. This causes a paper jam and whenever I fix the paper jam which to fix the paper jam I take out the tray 2 and remove the jammed paper it repeats the process of saying there’s a service error whenever I try to print anything new. The model of the printer is a HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M283cdw. The serial number is [Personal Information Removed].
