Hi,

As OEM HP is responsible for the proper operation of the printer and their supplied drivers. Check with

HP Support, their on-line documentation and drivers, and ask in their forums. If the drivers don't help

then you will need their support and ideas from their forums.

Does sound like a hardware issue.

Good chance you need to update or re-install the latest available driver.

HP Support & Drivers <- search Driver for your model and then put in Windows version

The main issue is probably hardware or the drivers however these may help :

Troubleshoot printer problems

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Troubleshoot-printer-problems

Open the Printer troubleshooter

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Open-the-Printer-troubleshooter

Find a manufacturer's website

Find and install printer drivers in Windows 7

Hope this helps.

The blinking lights are almost surely an error code of some sort, and either the documentation that came with the printer or the HP support web site would tell you what that means.
