Product: HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M281fdw
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I recently updated my HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M281fdw firmware with date code 20201021 and it is in a loop with the 79 error code.  Is there a solution for this or is it HP forcing obsolescence with its products.  i pad a lot for this printer and its only 1 1/2 years owned.  is there a way/procud to downgrade or revert to the original firmware
