Printer frozen on start up screen

[mbgarrett]

I have unplugged the device and it still is frozen. It gets stuck on the first dot when starting up and does not move anymore. When unplugged, I left it unplugged for a few minutes. I have tried everything I have found online, but it remains frozen. Any help will be appreciated!

Hi @mbgarrett,

Welcome to the HP Support Community

I understand you are facing an issue with your HP ENVY Photo 7855 All-in-One Printer. Not to worry I will help you to get a resolution to resolve the issue.

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
