Brand new HP envy 4500, streaks and lines missing even after calibration & cleaning

Bought printer last week, just installed/setup the printer for the first time.  No error messages or anything and everything looked like it went smooth.  
I printed a few test pages (print quality, print status, calibration sheet) and have lines cut off at the same sections.   Also for the colour box (black/grey/light-grey), the solid black box has grey bars going across.  The grey & light-grey boxes look fine.  All the other coloured ones boxes are fine too. 
Used the options to clean printhead, align printer and clean ink smear, however that didn't do anything.  All the 2nd test pages were cut off and had streaks at the same places.
Is there anything else I can do to fix this?

I would recommend that you contact HP Support about this, as you may require a replacement.
Phone no.

  • Dozens of drivers will not load on brand new HP ENVY 14t-1000 CTO Notebook PC. Win 7 Ultimate N

    I recenty paid for a brand new  HP ENVY 14t-1000 CTO Notebook PC.It had entirely too much bloatware and I have doe fresh install's hundreds of times. The installs went fine but only 4 drivers from the driver page for this product on Win 7 will install. I am without the Wifi, Ethernet, Sound, Display, Smart Card Reader, and about 10 more that I am not sure what they are. I googled the PCI ID's of some and found what should be the driver as in the Wifi is the Broadcom driver from the support page for this product but after the install nothing happens. Then you get the pop up that says there was the program may not have installed correctly. If I point the device directly at the directory for any of these it says driver not found. I have never had such a time installing drivers for a supported OS. It came with Win 7 on it. I am just trying to perform a clean install. I will gladly provide the device ID's for anyone at HP that can give me a driver that will work. The ones on the appropriate page do not. I know I am missing the IDT sound driver, The realtek ethernet driver, I believe the ATI HD Video driver, and the Broadcom Wireless driver for starters but once again all version new and legacy on the drivers page DO NOT install.  Help. I am this close to calling HP and returning this thing. I only received it today and would have no qualms about sending it back.     

    Hi: This is a peer to peer forum.  No one on this forum is authorized to respond on behalf of HP to any posts made here. I looked at the support and driver page for the 14t-1000, and that model is 5 years old according to the release dates of drivers listed there. Ar you sure that is the model number? Can you please post the product number for the PC?  The product number can be found on the same sticker as the serial number. You can also post the top line of each hardware ID's for each device needing drivers. I'll see what I can find. The driver directly from Realtek should install the card reader (PCI Device).  You want the first driver on the list. http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=15&PFid=25&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false

    Hello soincabf,
    I see that you are having problems with Skype on your HP computer. I would like to help with this issue but I need some information.
    Can you provide the full model and product number of the computer? Here is a link that shows how to find that information.
    Does the webcam work properly on Skype?

  • I am running Mac OS X Lion on a brand new Mini.  Every now and then, my keyboard goes "dead."  The mouse still works but can't type.  If I restart, everything is fine again.  Is there anything that will fix this problem?

    I am running Mac OS X Lion on a brand new Mini.  Every now and then, my keyboard goes "dead."  The mouse still works but I can't type.  If I restart, everything is fine again.  Is there anything that will fix this problem?
    Also, I am trying to connect my Mini from the mini-Displayport to the Displayport of my Dell U2410 monitor.  The image is very grainy,even though it is set to the correct resolution: 1920 X 1200 at 60Hz.  If I use HDMI to VGA input, the image is much clearer.  Is there a way to get the Displayport to work?

    I'm having exactly the same keyboard issue.  Certainly nothing has ever enhanced my concentration while coding like suddenly becoming unable to type.
    I'm seeing a great many devicemgr and rake errors in my system log.  I don't know if they're related.  How 'bout you?
    If you're unfamiliar with the system log…
    Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
    If necessary, choose View > Show Log List.
    system.log is at the top of the FILES section.
    Try searching it for hot words like DEBUG, FATAL, and aborted.
    I've found some discussions that would tend to indicate my errors are postGres related – I'm running OS X server.

  • Brand new computer is super slow and makes a clicking noise

    My brand new computer is super slow and makes a clicking noise. Any suggestions? I have a lenovo X120e, purchased it around 2 months ago but due to moving across the country just started using it, not so happy so far but I would be happier if it would speed up a bit. Every click takes a while to register especially during browsing on the internet.

  • Both my HP D4360 and my HP 940C printers have brand-new HP cartridges in them and neither one print

    Both my HP D4360 and my HP 940C printers have brand-new HP cartridges in them and neither one of them print correctly (half way). I made sure that the cartridges bleed out very well (on a damp paper towel until ink bleeds out) yet the characters come out very skipped, lined and in short, look terrible. Both printers should have been covered under the lawsuit against HP but I've yet to see a dime and I've been through more cartridges than I can count. With that said, I'm open to hearing any type of device short of thrilling the printer out the window of a 30 story building window because they both should work quite well. Any suggestions, ideas or what should I do next because I'm quite frustrated and the money doesn't grow on trees in my neighborhood or checking account.

  • HT5538 Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password

    Every time I try to use apple ID for face time I got an error message "the username or password was incorrect" although they are right and I use them in App Store and I cloud even after resetting my password, the problem happens also with iMessage . Please help

    For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices. 
    That all works.
    It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now.  They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
    I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
    Thanks for listening,
    Melissa

  • My canon sx120IS continues to show low batter and shuts off even after changing the batteries.

    My canon sx120 is  continues to show low battery and shuts off even after changing the batteries.  Any suggestions? Do I need to send it for repair somewhere, and if so, where?

    Hi LB!
    Thank you for posting on our forum!
    Try cleaning the electrical contacts on the camera and the batteries using a soft microfiber cleaning cloth.  If the same warning still displays, then the camera will need to be serviced.  To start the repair process, you'll need to complete a Repair Request on our website.
    If the camera is more than a year old, you may participate in the Canon Loyalty Program instead.  The Canon Loyalty Program option allows you to replace your current camera for a discounted fee, plus shipping.  The original non-functioning camera would then be returned to Canon USA for recycling using a prepaid shipping label that would be provided.  
    If you would like to take part in this option, please call our Sales Department at (800) OK CANON (800-652-2666) seven days a week, 8am to Midnight.  Let them know you have been working with online support and the Canon Loyalty Program was offered.  Be sure to have your serial number for your camera at the time of your call.

  • The row was not found at the Subscriber error keeps popup and stopped synchronization even after inserting missing record at subscriber - transcational replication.

    The row was not found at the Subscriber error keeps popup and stopped synchronization even after inserting missing record at subscriber - transcational replication.
    first error throws: Grab exact sequence number, find row and inserted at subscriber...
    Start synchronizing, ran fine for a while, stopped again with error with different exact sequence number, repeat again same as step 1.......
    how can we stop this and make it run without this error?
    Please advise!!!

    Hi,
    This means that your database is out of sync. You can use the continue on data consistency error profile to skip errors. However, Microsoft recommends that you use -SkipErrors parameter cautiously and only when you have a good understanding of the following:
    What the error indicates.
    Why the error occurs.
    Why it is better to skip the error instead of solving it.
    If you do not know the answers to these items, inappropriate use of the
    -SkipErrors parameter may cause data inconsistency between the Publisher and Subscriber. This article describes some problems that can occur when you incorrectly use the
    -SkipErrors parameter.
    Use the "-SkipErrors" parameter in Distribution Agent cautiously

    Mha007:
    Sorry, but I have already tried this too and verified that the web addresses are listed as Allow, rather than Block. After restart there was no difference, I still get the disappearing pop-up windows.
    Thanks for offering suggestions though.
    Have you heard of any issues like this occurring based on the number of tabs that are open in Firefox?
    Just a thought, even though I have not heard of this as an issue before. I keep about 80 tabs open regularly, because of research that I am always conducting (I am a blogger, a writer/author, a technophile-especially Green Tech.,), email, work, etc.?
    I do have a check in the box for Firefox to let me know if the number of open tabs is causing slow down or other issues.
    Thanks for any help.

  • Horizontal streaks (with new HP Envy 4500)

    Purchased new HP 4500 Envy (Cwhich wouldn't print black at all with catridges provided).
    Bought new replacement black cartridge.  I now get black with horizontal streaks.  [Note it's rubbish for cartridge in box didn't work].
    I have tried all the various test pages, realigning print heads, upping the paper quality, switching on and off, taking out and reinserting cardridges, etc and have reviewed this page in detail [ http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c03748920&lc=en&product=5304877&tmp...
    I still continue to get horizontal streaks with black text where I seem to be missing about one line in every 3 or 4.  
    I have checked printer settings (everyday printing should be fine, but isn't)
    Ink levels are fine - new.  [Mind you they were fine/full in the cartridge that came with printer too, but that didn't work at all]
    Print Qual Diag report - this looks ok - no streaks to be seen. 
    PRint alignments - looks okish, but I get message saying alignment failed every time.  [Now used papges and pages of paper and lots of ink doing this.... No progress, and repeating yet again doesn't seem to change outcome here, so giving this up - very wasteful and doesn't solve problem]
    Clean print head - most black text appears, but a few lines missing or half missing.  [Ditto re repeating this doesn't seem to help resolve]
    I am now at end of step 4.  This says if my problems are solved I can stop trouble shooting.
    IT DOES NOT, HOWEVER, SUGGEST WHAT TO DO IF MY PROBLEMS ARE NOT SOLVED.
    When I print ordinary documents - we MS word, emails, or from web again I am missing some lines or parts of lines (where tops or bottoms of letters have been sliced off).  This is poor.
    I HAVE NOW WASTED MANY HOURS, LOTS OF PAPER AND LOTS OF INK.
    PROBLEM NOT RESOLVED.  PLEASE CAN YOU FIX IT?
    MY HEART NOT FULL OF JOY ABOUT HAVING THIS HASSLE EVERY TIME A NEW CARTRIDGE IS FIXED INTO PRINTER.  

    Hello jules878,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    Sorry to hear that you are having issues when attempting to print in black ink.  I see that you have gone and went through the one document on Fixing Ink Streak. That document may not be the one that is geared entirely to the issue at hand.
    I suggest that you first make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    Having the power cable in a power bar/strip can cause issues with the display being dim or paper feed issues as well as issues with the Ink Delivery System. 
    Here is another document that I believe is more geared to the issue that you are experiencing.  Please click the following link for when the Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages.  Some steps will be the same but you will quickly see that the document does cover alternative measures.
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.

  • I just opened my brand new iPod touch 4th generation, and it's frozen with green, vertical lines. Does it have to be replaced?

    It's Christmas morning and my parents bought me a new iPod Touch 4th Generation 4G 32GB. I started charging it, 5mins later I walked back into my room and there I saw it - frozen, white screen with light green, vertical lines. It's brand new, and I just opened it about 5mins prior. I never dropped it, it never touched water. My mum bought it at the nearby Target. I opened it, in it's case and everything. So I have no clue what happened. I really hope the workers at Target didn't just sell me a broken iPod. This really stinks, and I really hope somebody can help me. I feel terrible for my mum having spent so much on it. So please, someone help me out.

    Hello planb77 / PANIDORA, I'm having the same problem. I'm using my iPhone 5S or my iPad Mini cable and wall charger to do it (both originals) , and the iPod Shuffle does not charge at all, doesn't matter if is direct on the wall or trough my Macbook Air.I 've restored it once, but nothing has changed. What else can I do?
