Welcome to the HP Community

 

I suggest you do a Hard Reset on the printer

 

(1) Turn the printer on, if it is not already on.

(2) Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you continue.

(3) With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.

(4) Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

(5) Wait at least 60 seconds.

(6) Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.

NOTE: HP recommends connecting the printer power cord directly to the wall outlet.

(7) Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.

(8) Turn on the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.

 

The printer might go through a warm-up period. The printer lights might flash, and the carriage might move.

Wait until the warm-up period finishes and your printer is idle and silent before you proceed.

 

Update the firmware for the printer using this link: https://support.hp.com/in-en/product/hp-deskjet-3050-all-in-one-printer-series-j610/4066450/document...

 

Restart the printer.

 

Keep me posted, how it goes!

Thanks but control buttons still do not work. However I can print and scan from my desktop.

This could be a hardware issue with the printer.

 

I would personally suggest you contact our HP Support.

HP does not support this printer any more. I think I need a new printer. I need a printer that has a cable connection to my computer.
