Event Code Descriptions
The specific event codes you mentioned relate to various types of errors:
- F0.01.01.02 Critical Error: This typically indicates a severe malfunction that requires immediate attention.
- F0.04.02.03 Warning Error: This is usually less severe but still indicates an issue that needs addressing.
- F0.03.09.05 Error: This could be related to network or communication problems.
Troubleshooting Steps
Restart the Printer: As you mentioned, restarting helps temporarily. Ensure the printer is completely powered off before turning it back on.
Let's perform a power drain:
- With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer and also unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
- Remove USB cable, if present.
- Wait for 2-3 minutes, press and hold the power button on your printer for about 30 seconds to remove any additional charge.
- Now plug back the power cable straight to a wall outlet without any surge protector or an extension cord (This is important) and then plug back the power cord to the printer.
- Turn on the printer and wait till warm-up period finishes and the printer is idle
Update Firmware and Drivers:
Check Network Connection:
Reset Network Settings on the Printer:
Reinstall Printer on Devices:
- Use HP Smart App: The HP Smart app can help diagnose and fix issues. Make sure you have it installed and use it to troubleshoot.
I DON'T KNOW IF I AM SUPPOSED TO TRY OR DO ALL THE ABOVE OR WHAT. AND EVEN SO I DON'T KNOW WHERE OR HOW TO FIND EXACTLY THE 'USE HP SMART APP' TO HELP DIAGNOSE AND FIX ISSUES
