I tried but this solution does not work. I am ready to throw the printer away. The printer is in its own "world", turning off, unplugging, reinstalling software, resetting to default setup, nothing seems to work. I wish there is a reset button so I can literally start from the beginning. I experienced this problem several times. After days of trying different things, somehow the hourglass would go away. But I never figure out what I did which is frustrating. That means I don't know what to do next time when I encounter the same problem.
I searched the Net for a solution and realized this is a common problem. I had bought many HP printers throughout the years. I think this is my last HP printer. Too bad.
