Check HP Printer standing

1) Make sure your HP printer has enough paper in the paper receptacle. If there is paper then make sure none of it is stuck or jammed in the paper feed. If there is please check with your manufacturer on the best way to remove the paper as you don’t need to ruin the internal motor or paper feeder.

Set Your HP Printer as Default Printer

Usually when you send a print request Windows will send that print job to what is called the default printer. If your printer is all hooked up but nothing is printing it may be that your HP Printer is not set to default in Windows. So all of your printing requests are not going to your printer but into a blank empty of no return. Let’s check that and make sure your HP is Default Printer.

1. Go to your Windows control panel and select “Devices and Printers”

Your control panel is reached by typing “Control Panel” in the search bar on Windows 10 or in older versions of windows press Window logo key and “R” key on your keyboard at the same time to open the Run dialog. In this dialog, type “control” and hit Enter. This will open the control panel in most Windows operating systems.

2. Find your HP Printer in the list of printing devices; make sure it’s the one you are having problems with. Right click on that printer and select “Set as default printer” from the drop-down menu. If there is a confirmation prompt please make sure you click “Yes”.

You should now see a nice little green mark below the icon of your HP printer; this means it’s currently the default printer for Windows. Go give your printing an attempt to see if that helped you!

HP Printer Troubleshooting

It doesn’t hurt to ask. There are some very easy troubleshooting items you can do to make positive you can print to your HP printer if it stops working or has never worked.

First, check the connection cables from the wall power to the HP printer power connector. Then, check the cabling from your printer to the Windows laptop it might be connected too, is that the USB cable firmly in place on both ends?

If there is a network cable running to the HP printer for HP network printing make sure that coax is snug and check your manual to see if there should be lights blinking to point a network connection.

Are there lights on at the front of your HP printer? If they are not and the printer doesn’t look to be powered on, try unplugging it and plugging it back in. Then certify you press the facility on the button on the printer itself.  If the light still doesn’t come back on maybe attempt another power plug in your home just in case that outlet is out.

If nothing works and your printer simply won’t power on, then you may need to take it to a service center or contact HP support directly for hardware help.
