The lights come on and dialogue box says printer initialising. Then it goes to “waiting for image” and won’t power up.

First thing you need to do is to narrow down whether this is a hardware or software issue. Are you able to copy or print reports from the control panel of the printer? If yes, the problem is more likely a driver or program issue, rather than a printer issue. Make sure that you are using the most current available driver software from HP as a first step. If you are unable to print a report or make a copy then likely you have a hardware issue.

If you find the information provided useful or solves your problems, help other users find the solution easier by marking my post as an accepted solution. Clicking "yes" on "was this reply helpful" also increases the chances that this solution will help others.
