Hi
I have a Hp LaserJet 110W printer . I have done all the settings, the Hp doctor found everything ok. I have no paper jams. I have done the firmware update, I have done the reset, but the exclamation mark keeps blinking and won't let me print anything except the test page. What else can I do?
Solved! Go to Solution.

4) Plug the power cord back into the printer and wall, ensure the printer is plugged into the wall & not into a surge protector.
5) Insert the cartridges back into the printer.

I solved the problem. It took me 3 evenings . I tried everything , every combination of buttons for the hard reset . Finally the pc application solved it. I did the toner cleaning, and the application did the hard reset. I am very happy. Hi from Hungary.
