HP DeskJet 1112 Printer
macOS 12.0 Monterey

Recently my HP DeskJet 1112 has stopped working entirely. The light on top blinks incessantly, more quickly than it normally does when receiving a print job. The HP Utility app cannot find the printer at all when plugged in by USB. When I press the button on top, the blinking pauses briefly, then immediately resumes. I have tried unplugging the printer for several minutes and plugging it back in, to no effect.

 

Is there a way to do a factory reset on this model? I cannot think what else to do since there is only one button on the entire printer.
