Hi @LHBJ70
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for posting your query! We're here to help you get back up and running.
The event code 62.80.13 on HP OfficeJet Pro printers like the 8620 or 8025e typically points to a printhead-related issue. This could be due to a misalignment, obstruction, or internal error affecting the printhead’s ability to function properly.
Here’s how you can troubleshoot it using HP’s recommended steps:
Power Reset the Printer:
- Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source.
- Wait for 60 seconds.
- Plug it back in and power it on. This clears temporary memory glitches.
Inspect the Printhead Area:
- Open the printer cover and check for paper debris or obstructions around the printhead carriage.
- Gently move the carriage side to side (if it’s not locked) to ensure smooth movement.
Clean the Printhead Contacts:
- Remove the ink cartridges.
- Use a lint-free cloth lightly dampened with distilled water to clean the copper-colored contacts on the cartridges and inside the carriage.
- Let them dry for a few minutes before reinserting.
Update the Printer Firmware:
- Visit HP’s official firmware update guide:
👉 HP Printer Firmware Update Instructions - Follow the steps to ensure your printer is running the latest firmware version.
Reset the Printer to Factory Defaults (if needed):
- This can help clear persistent internal errors. Let me know if you'd like the exact steps for your model.
If the error persists after these steps, the printhead may need servicing or replacement. I can help you check warranty options or guide you through contacting HP support if needed.
Let me know how it goes—we’ll get it sorted.
