1 How to Resolve HP Printer Error?

I know how frustrated it can get when you find that your printer that worked yesterday doesn't print today. I have faced this problem many times, sometimes the problem just fixes automatically after a reboot and other times a little bit of troubleshooting fixes it.

Here's a list of troubleshooting that might be handy to fix quick HP printer issues.

Faulty printer cables

When the printer stops printing, you need to check if the cables are connected. (If you have recently shifted the printer or dusted them, the cables could be the obvious reason to cause a problem).

Turn off the printer

Unplug all the cables connect to the printers

Connect them again

Turn the printer ON and try to print

Print – Success

Check the firewall settings of the computer

At times, the computer's firewall does not allow your HP printer to function

For this, open the preferences of firewall

Add the executable file of the printer software in the form of an exception

You can also disable the firewall on a temporary basis

Check out if the error is fixed and, in most cases, it will be fine.

Cartridge issues in HP printer

Using compatible and remanufactured cartridges can sometimes cause printer issues. When your printer stops printing, you can follow these steps.

Check if the printer cartridge is full or empty

Remove the cartridges, wipe them and put it back again

If the cartridge is empty, you can replace it with a new one.

Try a test print and it should print fine

Clean the print head

It is important to clean the print head ensure it's aligned properly

Open the printer driver, access the maintenance feature and run a print head clean and check the alignment

Printer Driver Issues

You may get an error message when the printer driver is not installed properly. In most cases, the system might fail to recognize the printer. When the device fails, you can try to uninstall the driver and reinstall them again.

If you don't have the printer software disk, you can download it from online.

Re-installation of HP software

To reinstall the software, ensure the printer is ON

If the printer is connected with the PC, disconnect it by removing the cable

The software would indicate you if the connection between the printer and the cable is required

WIA is a system that connects scanners and the computers which has to be active. And if it's not active, it fails to scan any document.

To fix it, search Windows in the View local services box and click on View Local Services in the Control Panel setting list

When the service window opens, Find WIA by typing Windows Image Acquisition
