Help after new printer cartridges installed

I just replaced both cartridges on the HP Photosmart C5280 All-in-one and all I get is a flashing yellow !, and the message refer to printer documentation. I have replaced cartridges before and never have had this problem. What does this mean? What do I do to fix it. Just want to print something ASAP.

I installed a new hp Magenta cartridge, but I get a message that says: "To print in color, install the following cartridgees: Magenta...." I tried to unplug the printer and plug it back in, but that didn't work either.

Which printer do you have specifically? HP makes several eprinters and I want to make sure I get the best information for you that I can.
Also, have you tried doing a self test print to see if the issue is hardware related versus being software related?

Re: Not printing black ink after new ink cartridge installed (HP Officejet Pro (edited)

Well 1 to 2 years later I have the exact same problem described by the posters with my OfficeJet 4020. My black printing started to deteriorate as the cartridge went empty, put in the same HP cartridges I have been buying at Costco since I bought the printer there 2 years ago, first new black cartridge printed poorly then just started to come out blank as described above. Put in second new cartridge Also ran all the cleaning and alignment tests and functions. no improvement and no malfunction found. While doing this I used up the three color cartridges which printed okay, it was just the black. Even went out and bought a third new cartridge from Staples to make sure the Costco ones weren't just bad. This HP replaced a Canon that lasted for ages and it's a problem already.
Did anyone ever find a solution to the HP black cartridge blank printing problem?

What is the model of your printer - there is not an Officejet 4020 that I can find. Is your model an Officejet 4620? If so I suggest you call HP support regardless of warranty as described in the post here. If you are in the US call 1-800-HPINVENt, elsewhere see the contact information here.

Won't print alignment page or any page after new ink cartridges installed.

I just installed a new color and a new black ink cartridge into my HP Envy 5531. I have never had an issue with this printer before, owned it for 2 years. After installing it, it tells me to print an alignment page, I press ok. The alignment page comes out only blank. So they cannot scan the alignment page. Now my printer prints like it's running low on ink, but it says that it's full with color and black ink.

Hi @Aly9008,
I would be happy to help you work towards a solution. I understand you have installed new cartridges, the levels are good (full), but your print quality is poor. Please use the following document to troubleshoot the issue; Fixing Print Quality Problems for the HP ENVY 5530 e-All-in-One and Deskjet Ink Advantage 4510 e-All....
If the issue persists, I suggest calling us. Don't hesitate to call, although the printer may be out of warranty, the cartridges could be in warranty; therefore, there wouldn't likely be a fee for the phone support. We will, at our option, either replace products under warranty that prove to be defective or refund the purchase price.
We could even determine after troubleshooting that it is a problem with the printer, in which case they may offer you a discount on a newer model.
The number to call is 1-800-474-6836 for Canada and US, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.
To find the “Warranty Ends” date, look in the following table for the date's location on each product. The date follows the YYYY/MM/DD or YYYY/MM format, where YYYY indicates the year, MM indicates the month, and DD indicates the day.

Not printing black ink after new ink cartridge installed (HP Officejet Pro L7555)

I have an HP Officejet Pro L7555 on which I just replaced the black ink cartridge. Now it won't print in black at all. I have tried cleaning the printhead multiple times to no avail. I only get printouts of boxes in all colors except black and nothing else written on the page at the end of each printhead cleaning cycle.
When I print the Self Test Diagnostic Page, it comes out in Magenta instead of black. On this page, it shows that both printhead are in good condition. The ink level on the black ink cartridge is shown to be full as would be expected for a newly installed cartridge.
I have replaced other cartridges on this printer before, and have not had this issue. Could anyone please help?

Thanks, garytech1. I have seen the document.
Solution 1. I have used and am using only genuine HP cartridges. The one I recently replaced was black. I have replaced the other colors before without problems.
Solution 2. I am using the correct type of paper. There are no streaks on the printouts. Any printing I try from a document with black text comes out blank. The only two types of printouts I have obtained are:
a. The Self Test Diagnostic Page, which comes out in magenta and it has no streaks. It also lists the status of the printheads as being good.
b. The printout that follows a printhead cleaning that has all color boxes except black. There are no streaks here either.
Solution 3. I have checked the print settings (I have Windows XP SP3) and they are all correct.
Solution 4. I have printed the PQ Diagnostic page and it is all blank except for some colored boxes. There are no streaks in them. No grey boxes appear.
Solution 5. There is nothing wrong with the images or documents I am trying to print.
Solution 6. I don't see why I should have to spend $70+ to replace the black/yellow printhead when:
a. The yellow color comes out fine in the colored boxes
b. All the diagnostics (the ones that are in the installed software as well as the ones I obtained from the HP website) all show the condition of both printheads to be good, and
c. When all printing was working just fine before I replaced the cartridge. Is there a physical way to clean the printheads since it appears from all of the above that it is the genuine HP ink that may have actually plugged it up?
Thanks for your help!

Tired of getting On-Screen Message about aligning new print cartridges.

Hello,
I have an hp Deskjet 5440 Printer. Every few minutes I'm getting the message (on the monitor screen): "If you have just installed a new print cartridge it is recommended that you align it. Click on "Align" to align your new print cartridge."
I use generic ink cartridges which the printer does not recognize so I never go through the alignment process. I did not like using the alignment process even before I started using generic cartridges because it seemed to be a waste of paper, ink, and time. So, whether I'm using generic or hp cartridges I'm getting the message - over & over & over. It really takes the fun out of using my computer. Can anyone tell me how to stop these #$%^* messages?
Thank you,
Bakwtr

The way to stop the alignment messages is to complete the alignment process. Regardless whether the cartridges are new or refilled the alignment process should be done. In addition to the alignment (necessary for best print quality, you may not care) the process also sets the correct operating energy for the printheads. This is important to get the best quality and also life from the cartridges. The amount of ink used in the alignment is tiny, particularly compared to the ink that may be wasted if the printer is not using the correct printhead energy (and temperature).

Message "Genuine HP print cartridge installed"

I get a message "genuine HP print cartridge installed" everytime a new cartridge is installed in my 7310 printer. Since I have installed replacement cartridges over time, I have three of the messages on my monitor. I have click "OK" to clear the message. They pop up every tiem I print anything, it's getting quite annoying. How can I stop these messages from poping up everytime I print........David

Hello,
Thanks for the post. I've included some information below that should assist with this one. Good Luck!
With this one, check this:
Regarding Ink alerts and other messages that reoccur after hitting OK on the pop up. I have learned that in some products you need to actually go into the Message Center and acknowledge the messages there in order for the pop ups to stop. Simply hitting OK on the pop up does not terminate the alert. You can Ctrl-Click and highlight all of the messages and acknowledge en masse in the Message Center. Please make sure that we are acknowledging the ink alerts and such IN the message center.
There is also the option of turning the messages off altogether. Go to HP utility, should be in the dock or in the Hewlett Packard folder in applications. In there you have an option for message center, in there you can go to settings in the top right, and then uncheck the boxes for displaying alerts. Good Luck!

I am having sporadic issues after new hard drive install and recovery using Time Machine. The same sluggish response, start up screen pixelating...If I reinstall Lion will it wipe out other applications? My HD was formatted and partitioned correctly, I have a late 2009 iMac.

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

IMac taking long time to boot after new hard drive installed. Help?

I recently had a new hard drive installed on my iMac (running Snow Leopard). After the intall all was well, but I couldn't get my screensaver to work. Erroneously thinking it was missing, I reinstalled it and ended up with two screen saver folders in the system files. Now when I turn on the Mac, I get a white screen for several seconds (close to a minute) before the system shows me the Apple logo and then boots. I'm concerned about this. Did my copying the screen saver cause the problem? Should I reinstall my system software? I was planning to upgrade to Mountain Lion anyway. Will that fix the problem? Any suggestions appreciated.

Restart in Safe Boot Mode (hold the left Shift key as soon as you restart your computer and hold it until the Apple logo appears). Once it gets to the desktop you can restart normally. Safe Mode serves a number of purposes and one of them is to delete/trim temporary files that might be causing boot problems. There's no guarantee this will improve your startup time but it will do no harm and I have seen computers restart more quickly after a Safe Boot.

HP 6510 printing only blank pages after changing print cartridges

Hi,
My HP 6510 is printing only blank pages after I installed new print ink cartridges. I tried cleaning the print heads, aligning the printer... which did result in some pages printing with a little color (but it seemed "off" to me). That said, when I try to print a regular document from my PC it only prints a blank page.
I can't seem to figure this one out on my own - please help!
Thanks!
Chloe

The document here may help resolve black not printing on your Photosmart 6510. Be sure the cartridges are vented as shown in solution two.
Is your printer still in warranty? You can check with HP's warranty tool here.
