Hi @afafsh,
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your printer!
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.
Try these steps:
Check USB Connection: Ensure that the USB cable is securely connected to both the printer and your computer. Try using a different USB cable or port to rule out any problems with the current cable.
Printer Drivers: Ensure that you have the correct printer drivers installed. You can download the latest drivers from the HP Support website.
Printer Status: The red light might indicate a specific error such as a paper jam, ink cartridge issue, or that a door is open. Check the printer's control panel for any specific error messages and resolve accordingly.
Restart Devices: Turn off the printer and your computer. Wait a few seconds, then turn them back on. This can resolve minor connectivity issues.
Software Update: Make sure your computer and HP Smart app are updated to the latest versions.
USB Settings: Ensure that your computer's USB ports are enabled in the BIOS settings.
I hope this helps.
