Top reasons your HP printer is not giving printouts:

Lost Wi-Fi connection: The wireless light on your printer might flash, indicating it has lost its Wi-Fi connection.
Empty ink cartridge: The printer may refuse to print if the cartridge is empty or not properly detected.
Firewall or antivirus restrictions: Security software may mistakenly block the connection between your printer and PC.
