@jsauser11, Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
Since your HP DeskJet Plus 4158 printer fails to print over wireless and shows blinking lights without an error number, here are a few troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue:
Check the Blinking Light Pattern
The blinking lights on the control panel usually indicate a specific error. Here are common ones:
- Power + Wireless + Resume Blinking→ Printer not connected to Wi-Fi.
- Power + Wireless + Error Blinking→ Paper jam, ink issue, or connection problem.
Perform a Hard Reset
Since a soft reset didn't help, try this:
- Turn off the printer and unplug it from power.
- Wait 60 seconds.
- Plug it back in and turn it on.
- Try printing again.
Reconnect Printer to Wi-Fi
Since you're printing wirelessly, reset and reconnect:
1. Restore Network Settings:
- Press and hold the Wireless (📶) and Cancel (❌) buttons for 5 seconds.
- The Wireless light will blink→ Network settings are reset.
2. Reconnect to Wi-Fi:
- Open HP Smart on your PC.
- Click Add Printer and follow the instructions.
Update or Reinstall Printer Drivers
1. Uninstall the current printer driver:
- Go to Control Panel → Devices and Printers.
- Right-click the HP DeskJet Plus 4158 → Remove device.
2. Download and install the latest driver from HP website.
Print Using a USB Cable (Test)
If USB printing works, the issue is wireless. If USB also fails, the printer itself has a problem.
Run HP Print and Scan Doctor
- Download HP Print and Scan Doctor from here.
- Run it and check for errors.
I hope this helps. 🚀
Take care and have a good day.
