Sprocket printer
iOS

My HP Sprocket Printer was disconnected from my phone for a while. It connects to my phone via bluetooth but won't show up on the sprocket app.  I'm unable to use my printer now and I have things I'd like to print.

I've held the reset button and it still didn't do anything to help.^^

@chloe_camp, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

You can initiate a factory reset by using the steps below. A factory reset can only be completed when the USB charging cable is NOT connected to the printer. 

1. Hold the power button for about 7 seconds in total. After 3 seconds, the Status LED light will turn off to indicate the printer is shutting down; continue to hold the Power button until the LED lights start to flash. 

2. Release the power button. The LEDs will continue blinking for about 6 seconds. 

3. While the LEDs are blinking, press and release the power button. The device will remain off until you power on again. 4. Power on; the printer will be reset to factoring settings. After a factory reset, all settings are reset to factory defaults (Custom Name, LED color, Sleep Time, Auto-Off, etc.)

 

Also, forget the printer under Bluetooth devices, restart the phone, and try reconfiguring the connection.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

@WPalmer, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

This looks like a hardware issue.

 

Please reach out to the HP Support in your region regarding the service options for your printer.

 

Hope this helps!
