Unknown error, printer not printing anymore. 

My new printer doesn't work anymore and I need to print urgently some documents. 

HP LaserJet MFP M234sdw.

The screen doesn't give me an error, it's spinning non stop.

 

Thank you

Maybe one of these reset methods will work. You will have to reconfigure the Wi-fi.


Click here for network setup using HP Smart but in a different language

Network setup video with reset for new router.

This reset might work

Turn the product on while you press and hold the Resume button for 10-20 seconds.
The Attention light turns on. Release the Resume button.
The Attention and Ready lights cycle while the product restores factory defaults.



This video shows another way to reset the printer.

m234 scan only July 2025

Wi-Fi direct setup video is here

OCR software is also available.

LaserJet References m234dwe and m234sdwe

Page 33 describes how to print a status report.  If it will not print then there is  a problem with the ink cartridges.  They must be genuine HP.
