I see
In order to diagnose your error code, please install HP Smart please do the following:

  1. Download the HP Smart app from the Microsoft Store connection before
    downloading.
  2. If you are setting up HP Smart for the first time, you must create or sign in to an HP account to access all printer functions.
  3. In HP Smart, click Add Printer or the plus sign to search for the printer, and then follow the instructions to complete the setup.

It seems that you don't use it. Skip this step with VPN, please.

Customer Replay

yes, writing something
my printer is already connected to the computer. I'm just asking how to clear the error E 4

author

*****, the E4 error code means a paper jam.
Do you confirm that?

Customer Replay

I thought might be the problem, but couldn't figure out how to open it. I tired to find it where the ink is but didn't see anything.

author

I understood.
To remove a paper jam from the inside of the printer please do the following:

  1. Turn off the printer.
  2. Disconnect the power cord and any other cable.
  3. Remove the jammed paper from the following areas.
  4. Ink or toner cartridge access area:
    Open the access door, move the carriage if necessary, and then remove any jammed paper. On some printers, you might need to remove the toner cartridge and/or imaging drum to access the paper jam.

  • Under the paper path cover
    If your printer has a paper path cover behind the carriage, remove the cover, and then remove any jammed paper.
  • Input tray
    Pull out the input tray, and then remove any jammed paper.
  • Bottom cleanout door
    If your printer has a bottom cleanout door, carefully lift the printer and look under it, and then remove any jammed paper from the bottom cleanout.
Customer Replay

how do you pull out the paper tray all the way. I tried pulling on it but there are no release buttons

author

Pull out the input tray, and then remove any paper.

Look inside the input tray and use both hands to remove any jammed paper or debris inside the printer.

Customer Replay
