Step two: Reset Your HP Printer

Follow these steps to reset your printer.

  1. Turn the printer on, if it is not already resting on.
  2. Wait until your HP printer is idle and silent before you continue.
  3. With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of your printer.
  4. Unplug the power cord cable from the wall outlet.
  5. Wait at least 1 minute.
  6. Plug the power cord cable back into the wall outlet.

Note- HP recommends connecting the printer power cord cable directly to the wall outlet.

  1. Reconnect the power cord to the rear of your HP printer.
  2. Turn on your HP printer, if it does not automatically turn on.
  3. Wait until your HP printer is idle and silent before you proceed. You can Contact HP Printer Customer Support for any help and queries.

Note- Ink system failures can reason a carriage stall when the printer resets. If the ink system failure requires that you return your HP printer for service, there is no need to resolve the carriage stall issue.
