How To Get Rid Of Service Error 79 On The HP LaserJet Pro 400
o one of our local clients called us and asked if we could do some printer troubleshooting. They have a HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401dn for a network printer. The problem, it keeps on getting service error 79 lately and the warranty is expired. This error message usually pops up when a print job is corrupted. It can also be caused by miscommunication between the spooler and the printer due to outdated firmware.
It is a very common issue on HP LaserJets so I came by the next day and checked things out.
