I am getting a code on my printer of 0xc18a0206​. what does this mean ?

I have a HP Photosmart 7250 all in one. I am getting a error code of 0xc18a0206.  It says to turn off the printer and restart BUT when I turn off the printer. it goes off for a split second and then goes back on. I think the printerand or computer does not recognize that the printer was turned off.
I would unplug it but the printer say this may cause damage. What do I do ?

Hello dmnndj,
This is the proper procedure and if this fails, take it in for service.
1. Disconnect the Universal Serial Bus (USB) cable from the back of the product, but leave the product turned on.
2. Open the cover of the product and remove the print cartridges.
3. Close the cover and wait for the Insert Ink Cartridges message to display.
4. Disconnect the power cord from the back of the product and wait for one minute.
5. Reconnect the power cord. If the product does not automatically turn on, press the Power button.
6. Open the cover and reinsert the print cartridges.
7. Close the cover. If prompted, print a calibration page.
8. Reconnect the USB cable, and try to print a print job from the computer.
Hope this helps?
