I had the same problem, tried clearing memory, etc. but no luck. Turns out the pages I was sending were printed on a darker colored (purple) paper which made the size of each page very large.

I tried again with the pages printed on light colored paper and had no problem.

The internal storage system is full. You need to run the HP Web Jetadmin software and delete unnecessary files from the EIO disk device. When done, press the select button on the printer to return it to a ready state. You should be able to print small jobs yet as long as it doesn't require any temporary (or permanent) storage on the EIO disk.

HI,

This a formatter failure, sounds like the formatter went out while trying to do a hard reset or after updating the firmware,
Try doing a nvram:
Turn the printer off and hold the down arrow and the cancel button
Turn the printer on while holding the two buttons down
Continue holding until you see the permanent storage message and wait for the ready message to display

If this doesn't work call hp and tell them that printer is frozen and will not initialize, this is due to a formatter failure. If it has been less than 2 years since the purchase date then you will apply for a service note and will be able to have the printer serviced for free, Contact hp's tech support at 1800-334-5144.
