Hi @Luis162,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I'd be happy to help you! 

 

perform a power reset

  1. Turn on the printer, if it is not already on.
  2. Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you continue.
  3. With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
  4. Wait at least 30 seconds.
  5. Plug back the power cable straight to a wall outlet without any surge protector and printer.
  6. Turn on the printer.

Reseat the printhead up to three times

Slip your fingers into the slot on the left side of the printer, and then pull forward to open the cartridge access door. The carriage moves to the left side of the printer. Wait until the carriage is idle and silent before proceeding.

  1. Slot on the left side of the printer

 

Unplug the power cord from the rear of the printer. Unplugging the printer prevents the carriage from moving.

   WARNING:

You must disconnect the power cord before reaching inside the printer to avoid risk of injuries or electric shock.

Lift the carriage latch.

Grasp the sides of the printhead, and then slightly lift the printhead without fully removing it from the carriage.

Reinsert the printhead into the carriage to reseat it. As you guide the printhead into the carriage, it lowers into the carriage as it seats.

Gently rock the printhead to the left and right to make sure that the printhead fully seats in the carriage.

Lower the carriage latch.

  • Carriage latch is down
  • Close the cartridge access door.
  • Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.
  • If the printer does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
  • Wait until the warm-up period finishes and your printer is idle and silent before you proceed.

Update the printer firmware

  • From the home screen on the printer control panel, touch the HP ePrint icon .
  • Wait for the printer to connect to the HP ePrint server.
  • When the printer connects to the server, the HP ePrint status displays.
  • Touch Settings on the bottom left corner of the screen.
  • Touch Printer Update, and then touch Check for Update Now.
