Still will not print...help?

Hi Hamlin,
The blinking lights you are seeing could be alerting you to a carriage jam, caused either by a paper jam or a foreign object.
If this is not the problem, review the following HP troubleshooting document for help in diagnosing your your problem.
HP Deskjet 5550 Color Inkjet Printer support-- Blinking lights
I hope this helps!

  • Deskjet d4360 lights blinking and not printing

    I have a deskjet d4360 and when I am sending something to be printed all the lights start flashing.  The power and resume buttons are flashing very rapidly and the ink catridge lights are flashing at a slower rate.  Nothing is being printed.  if I press the power button it eventually goes back to no lights flashing  but as soon as I try to print the same thing happens.  If I press the resume button after lots of random flashing patterns it eventually goes to power and resume light flashing rapidly.  If I press the power button again it goes back to no lights flashing and ready to print.  But it wont print and goes through the same cycles if I try to print.
    Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks,
    Lisa

    Hi Lisa, there's a document here for blinking lights on the DJ D4360 which may help resolve this problem...

  • Linksys Network Everywhere Model NH1005 - Network Cable Unplugged / Blinking Lights

    I just replaced a computer on our network.  I connected the network cable to Port 2 on the hub, and it blinks.  I switched ports to make sure it wasn't a bad port, but continue to get the blinking lights.  On the computer, it's telling me the network cable is unplugged.
    Any ideas?

    Make sure you are using a patch cable and not a crossover, the easiest way to tell is to compare the ends of the cable side by side and make sure the colors are in the same order.

  • Stop the sleep blinking light in lenovo g-470, whining sound from the power adapter , HEEEEEELP !!!

    Hi, hope anyone can help me.
    I own a lenovo b560 and a g470, the sleep light will blink when I go to sleeping mode, anyway the problem is not the light, the problem is the whining sound it produces the power adapter when the light start blinking, in both machines I hear that whining noise, but in the g470 is much louder, I don´t know if this is because I have a faulty adapter or something, the strange thing is that both adapters make the noise when I sleep the laptop, when I turn off or hibernate the whining sound disappear.
    Also, I notice that the whining sound alternate in 2 types of sounds, one is high in pitch and the other lower, the high pitch is when the blinking light turn on when go to sleep and the lower pitch of the sound is when the light go off, and that is repeating until I resume the laptop, it´s very annoying, especially when I´m in a quiet room.
    So my theory is that maybe somehow I can turn off the blinking light when the laptop goes to sleep and then maybe the whining sound will go away, but I don´t know, it´s only an a idea.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks !
    Solved!

    I can really understand your pain with this issue.
    Kindly update the BIOS and display driver from the lenovo website then check if the issue persist.
    The issue should be resolved after this.

  • Macbook Pro I get a light for a few seconds then a blinking light, then nothing, no start up, nothing.

    I can't restart my Macbook Pro after putting it to sleep.  I now get a blinking light, then nothing.  The computer will not start up, even after doing what is recommended in the mannual.  Has anyone else had this problem?  Were you able to solve it?  How were you able to resolve it?  Thanks for any help you can send my way.  mt

    Thanks for the help.  Unfortunately I live a 5 hour drive to my closest Apple store, so making a "Genius" appointment is not possible at this time.  I have tried re-seating my memory cards, I have also tried using the original memory cards that I replaced in favor of more memory.  I got the 3 beeps and 5 second pause 3 beeps indicating that the RAM doesn not pass integrity check.  Am I still at the "Genius" appointment?  Thanks for your help.

  • HP PSC 2355 Blue screen of Death and Error message/ blinking lights.

    Hello, I have a HP PSC2355 that we recently moved, after we moved it started randomly locking up with the Blue Screen Of Death (BSOD), it would give an error:0X880529ec on the BSOD, further down the screen were the characters 1:H+x?+  The (ON) light was Blinking Green, the (!) light was blinking orange.  This will happen regardless if the PC was on or not, it will happen when trying to print, sometimes only getting 1" of print at the top of the page.  Currently running Windows XP, SP3 connected via USB.  I highly doubt it is a PC issue as it will happen when trying to use it as a standalone copier.  Sounds internal to me, I do have electronics experience ( I repair televisions )  If someone has any ideas, let me know.....
    I might also add, you dont have to be printing for the error to crop up, you can just plug it in and wait, later you will see the BSOD and the blinking lights.

    Well, decided to try to print from another computer, d/l the smaller driver only package (26meg), did a fresh install after finally getting the printer to stay on for a few minutes, it took forever on the first part of 8 on the installer (cable already plugged in), and it has been on for many hours now, printed many things, yet to have an error.  Dont know if the driver installation did anything with the firmware on the unit or not. 
    Differences:
    Celeron Laptop (virus/trojan free) now
    Was on a P4 desktop that had not been so lucky with the trojan/viruses.
    Upstairs on my dining room table now
    Was in basement in wife's scrapbooking room.
    Dunno, time will tell.......

  • Blinking lights office jet pro 8600

    HP has been very cooperative in clearing my problem.  I am on my 3rd office jet pro 8600 plus, N911g.  After a short period the blinking lights appear "turn printer off, then on" no other message.  It's OK for a brief period and then the lights reappear.  I have done everything HP support says....I have also moved the printer from room to room thinking that might help....still the same problem.  Any suggestions, or must I just accept the lights.  I am using Windows 7.  Also an HP Laptop.  Love HP and the printer.

    Welcome to the forums Migee,
    I saw your post about your Officejet 8600 showing blinking lights and the message to turn the printer off. I would like to share my suggestion that might help!
    Update the printers firmware: Getting the Latest Firmware and Product Updates
    Plug the printer in directly to the wall outlet, avoiding power bars and surge protectors. This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
    Let me know if that helps. If not, please let me know if the printer is still in warranty with HP and we will go from there.

    Did you ever fix this? My daughters is the same. Treated with tender loving care, we reset to factory and it disappeared but was back again after 2 or 3 days. Still in warranty so going to take to the genius bar, however a bit concerned that because it belongs to an 11 year old they are going to assume she's damaged it.

    my apple tv device is flashing or has a blinking light..... what do I do??

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
        1.    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
        2.    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
        3.    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
        4.    Open iTunes.
        5.    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    (You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

  • Fast blinking light! What does it mean?

    The other day I shut down my computer. (Intel iMac matte screen, 10.4.11) Later, when I pushed the restart button, I failed to get a bong & the sleep light started blinking rapidly & bright. For a number of times I held down the restart button to get it to shut down, & then pressed it again to restart...same blinking light. (I've never seen this behavior before) I managed to finally get it to restart by double clicking on the restart button, but I don't even know why I tried that.
    Anyone know what's up?

    Hi Bob
    That sounds like a ram problem!
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303083
    Perhaps one of your modules has dislodged and need to be reseated, or is failing.
    1. Try reinstalling-reseating both modules, firmly pushing on each one with both thumbs then close the ejector clips.
    2. Then if it still acts funny, try installing one module at a time.
