My printer stopped with missing or failed printing heads
Which cannot be replaced - that I will have to accept
But now my control panel is stuck on the above message
and I cannot use other functions like scanning, email, fax, etc
Scanning only works from laptop but not from printer
How do I fix this please? and bypass the 'missing printheads"
or clear the control panel

@Nico24 Welcome to HP Community!
I understand that you are getting missing printheads messages.
Do not worry. I will try to fix the issue.
Please perform the hard reset and check for the issue.
-
Turn the printer on, if it is not already on.
-
Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you continue.
-
With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
-
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
-
Wait at least 60 seconds.
-
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
-
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.
-
Turn on the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.
-
Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you proceed
