Nice to meet you, *****!
Is your HP printer connected wireless?

Customer Replay


No.

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:

Hold on, I may be wrong here. I'm checking something out. You're correct it's usb.

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

Customer Replay

Tried to print a test page, but nothing.

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.

Ok but please do it from your PC now

Customer Replay

Internally, I mean.

We need to know what error message it will show you

Customer Replay

Okay. It just says error with no number.

Please unplug your Printer and turn it off completely, wait for 60 sec and plug back. And come back to me with update

Customer Replay

Okay.

Thanks

You're a genius! It printed out the test page and then the other document I sent!

Excellent, please check if everything works fine
