I have aHP Photosmart C8180 All-in-One Printer that won't stay on

I  have aHP Photosmart C8180 All-in-One Printer that when I turn it on it looks like it is going to start, then the light on the light scribe door goes on and off, it makes a clicking noise then the printer shuts off, then comes back on and does the same thing over and over.

Hello Gr8fulbuck, I see you are having an issue with your printer and I would like to help.
I just need some information from you first. Do you have your printer plugged directly into a wall outlet? Have you power reset your printer? Have you tried to plug it in to a different wall outlet? Have you tried using a different power cable?
Which model of printer do you have?

Power reset - http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&docname=c03177455
Please respond with this information, I would be happy to help you.

  • I have a C309g Photosmart Premium All-in-One printer that the paper transport mechanism rumbles

    My computer operating system is Windows XP
    An error message "Remove Paper Jam" occurs when I am trying to print even when there is no paper in the printer. It also rumbles as it scans a document to the computer but it takes almost 3 times longer than normal to scan. I have checked the printer and duplexer for a paper and they are clean.
    Nothing was changed to the computer, printer or operating system.
    It sounds to me like the gear bearings need lubricating.

  • HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer C309g won't print from iTunes

    My C309G won't print anything from iTunes.  Anybody have any luck fixing this problem?  Thanks.

    Hi - Got this from another user on the forum.  Go into Printers and Devices (from start menu), right click on the C309G and there should be a Properties option.  Select Properties and click Advanced.  the default is "Spool print documents so program finishes printing faster", and then "Start printing immediately".  Change it to "Print directly to the printer".  This resolved the problem for a number of users.
    Hope that helps.

  • Entering a "$" in the SSID password when setting up an HP Photosmart 2710 all-in-one printer

    Hello,
    I have a Photosmart 2710 all-in-one printer, and I am trying to set it up wirelessly. However, my SSID as a "$" in the password, and I can't find any way to enter this symbol in the wireless setup on the printer.  Also, when I try to run the HP Printer setup wizard I downloaded from the HP support site, it says this printer is not supported by the wizard?
    Can anyone help? 
    Thanks,
    jmmain1

    You must change your wireless password in the router to not  conntain any special characters.  Once done, go back and input the password in the printer.

  • I have an HP C6300 All In One Printer (wireless). It is always going "Off-line".

    We have an HP C6300 All In One Printer that is wireless. We try and set the Properties on the laptops to "Use Off-Line" but that does not help. At points some of the laptops work and some don't. Now none of the computers can print. I have unplugged the printer and re-assigned it to my wireless network and nothing is working. we are out of warranty so I would have to pay for any tech support which is probably more than the printer cost, so if I cannot solve this I am getting rid of this printer!!

    HI,
    You should be able to just leave it on, it should have a sleep mode which it will enter after a while.

    My Photosmart c8180 all-in-one shuts down-restarts itself repeatedly. Blue screen message B367A5E0. Have Window XP. Have not been able to locate a description of this error message.

    Hi there 57nomad,
    To make sure this is not software related try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:

  • Problem with installing Solution Center for a HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer - C309g

    Hi folks,
    I've searched many threads and found some directions to remedy this, tried them and have had no luck.
    I'm running Windows 7.  All updates are current.  When I bought the printer I installed the software (on Windows 7 OS) from the disc and everything was fine.  Fast forward a year and Solution Center stopped working.
    Uninstalled all HP software to reinstall.  I was only able to reinstall HP Update.  I was able to load the basic drivers for print and scan, but not the entire software suite including Solution Center.  The installation stops abruptly after "installing updates".
    I even downloaded and tried "PS_AIO_06_C309g-m_USW_Full_Win_enu_140_175" and got the same result as the original installation disc.
    What can I do with my printer (HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer - C309g)???
    Thanks,
    Alex
