Hi @ISOOJOE1 ,

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

I understand your HP LaserJet Pro CP1025 Color Printer is stuck in a continuous calibration loop, here are steps you can take to resolve the issue:
 

1. Restart the Printer

• Turn off the printer, unplug it from the power source.
• Wait for 1-2 minutes.
• Plug the printer back in and turn it on.
• Check if the calibration completes after the restart.

2. Update the Printer Firmware Update the firmware on an HP printer

• Outdated firmware can cause issues like endless calibration.
• Go to the HP Support website and search for your printer model.
• Download the latest firmware for your printer and follow the installation instructions.

3. Reset the Printer to Factory Defaults

• Press the Setup button (the wrench icon) on the printer’s control panel.
• Navigate to Service or System Setup, depending on the model.
• Select Restore Defaults and confirm the reset.
• After resetting, the printer should stop the endless calibration and work properly.

4. Check the Toner Cartridges

• Sometimes, a faulty or improperly seated toner cartridge can cause endless calibration.
• Open the printer and remove all toner cartridges.
• Check for any damage or toner leaks, then reinsert them properly.
• Try replacing any cartridge that appears faulty or empty.

5. Ensure Paper Type Settings are Correct

• Incorrect paper settings can sometimes cause calibration issues.
• On the printer, go to Settings > Paper Handling.
• Ensure the paper type and size match what is loaded in the tray.

6. Reinstall the Printer Driver

• Uninstall the printer from your computer.
• Download and install the latest drivers from HP’s website for your operating system.
• This can resolve any communication issues that could be causing the endless calibration.

7. Clean the Printer Sensors

• If there's dust or toner particles on the sensors inside the printer, calibration may not complete.
• Carefully clean the sensors using a soft cloth or compressed air.
