Is your HP printer connected wireless?

Customer Replay


No.

author

Ok, so with USB, right?

Customer Replay

Well, now, I can see the old cable coming from the back of the computer, the one that you slot in and screw down.

Sorry, *****, can you tell me how you usually connected your printed to PC?

Customer Replay

By a cable that plugs into the back of the computer and there are two screws on each side that bolts it down.

Got you
Are you sure this is not your monitor connected? Are you on desktop or laptop?
Your printer is usually connects with this cable:

Ok great, can you plug it in and try to print again if it was disconnected?

Got you
So PC is able to find it?

Customer Replay

Well, no, it can't find it. I tried printing a test page directly from the printer.

author

Ok but please do it from your PC now

Customer Replay

Internally, I mean.

author

We need to know what error message it will show you

Customer Replay

Okay. It just says error with no number.
