HP Stylus 980 color network printer.
Works fine if you press feed paper on the printer prior to sending something to the printer but if you don't; it sounds like it is attempting to load the paper (but doesn't) and then all the lights start blinking on the front of the machine ( black ink led, color ink led, paper led). The paper feed button needs to be pressed prior to each print job for it to work.
If the printer has all the leds flashing, I need to keep it off for several minutes and cancel all print jobs/restart computer for the printer not to be flashing when I turn it back on. It does the same thing with any of the 3 computers that we have linked to it. Any help appreciated. Thanks
