    I have a iPad 2 and need to print of a invoice can I print on my hp photos art 3110 all in one if so how do I go about it please

    your printer doesn't appear in the compatible Airprint printers listed in this basic article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    There might be an app HP has to help you out, but there's no Apple supported way, as it's not an Airprint printer.
    Anyways, hope this helps

  • HP Photosmart Premium Fax All-in-One Printer-C309a-new black ink cartridge will not print

    i just installed a new black ink cartridge (manufactured by HP) when print quality became poor in the middle of a job.  it completed the job fine, but when i have tried to print subsequently, only those parts of the document that are in color/greyscale will print.  the black is simply absent from the document.  the supply level is showing as fine and all diagnostics indicate there is no probem.  i have not received any error messages.  i have tried turning the printer on/off.  i have tried cleaning the printheads.  i have tried uninstalling & reinstalling the cartridge.  i do not have any additional black cartridges to try to see if that will solve the problem, but as noted above, it did work initially.  i am just printing to regular plain white printer paper.  i have tried all the relevant steps in the HP troubleshooting document for poor print quality posted elsewhere on this page.  nothing has worked!  someone else's post mentioned resetting the printer, but did not say how it was done.  any ideas on a solution??? thanks!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    To reset the printer, follow these steps:
    While the power is on, remove the power cord from the back of the printer. Wait at least 30 seconds, then connect the power cord to the back of the printer, then turn the unit on. That will complete a power reset.
    Now, missing black during printing can be a result of a couple of things. If it is only missing say when printing from Word, then the print settings within Word are set to grayscale only (or something similar) which would exclude the black cartridge. If it is from all programs, then it is either the main print settings set to grayscale only, or the printhead/cartridge is clogged up/dirty. If it is not the print settings, then create a print quality report and follow the steps in this document:

  • C7200 all in one won't recognize new ink cartridge

    The all in one screen is requesting that I change one of the color ink cartridges. I have purchased three, but it will not recognize any of them. In reading other posts and trying to glean solutions, I have done a power reboot, wiped the contacts with alcohol, and updated drivers. I don't think all three of the new hp cartridges could be the culprit. Is there anything else to try?

    Hi,
    PLease follow the steps mentioned in the link
    Open www.hp.com and search for the document c02005923.
    If the issue is still not resolved,it could be an issue with the Printheads.Please call HP to confirm the same.

  • Printing error after replacement of ink cartridges

    I just replaced the black and the color ink cartridges in my Deskjet F4800. I have done this successfully many times before. But this time, the tear-drop shaped light under the color ink level guage on the panel is blinking continuously, and the "E" (for error) sign on the fron panel is on. The printer refuses to print anything. I have tried removing and re-inserting the cartridges a couple of times, and resetting the printer, but to no avail. The HP Solution Centre software just reports an error situation and advises to remove and re-insert the cartridges, which I've done a number of times now without being able to solve th eproblem.

    Hey @subratabn ,
    Thank you for taking the time out of your day to ask that question on the HP Forums today!
    I understand you are in an error state with your printer. You are being told to reinstall and remove the cartridges to fix the issue.
    I have looked all over the website for the Deskjet F4800. I can not find it,  are you sure that this is the model that you are using? If so please attach a picture and some information about it.
    Look forward to hearing back from you!

  • HP PSC 1600 All-In-One error message remove and replace color cartridge

    I get the remove and replace color cartridge and printer or scanner won't work. I have replaced the cartridge with new ones twice and it still happens. Just installed a new HP color cartridge and no luck. I've tried everything I can think of.
    Please, does anyone have any other suggestions????
    Thank you,

    Hi MJKEL,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having an issue with errors on the printer pertaining the ink cartridges.
    I do have a few steps that we can try in the attempt to troubleshoot this issue.
    First off, please 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.
    I have also located a documet that deals with A 'Remove and Check [color / black / photo] Cartridge' Error Message Displays on the Printer Control...
    Please feel free to write me back if you have any other questions or concerns.

  • HP 7280 all-in-one says ink cartridges are empty and will not print from PC, but it copies fine.

    Replaced 2 ink cartridges in hp 7280 but still says both cartridges are empty and will not print from PC, but it will copy fine.  When I try to print I get a error box that says "Ink cartridges empty - replace black and yellow ink cartridges to continue."  They are brand new - just bought them - expiration date Sep 2015.  Have tried rebooting and disconnecting and reconnecting everything.  Same error, but it still will do color copies fine - all cartridges are working.  Help?! 

    Hi tfmartin,
    I understand you have a Photosmart C7280 that you are unable to print to from your computer. I'm sorry to hear about this, but I will certainly do my best to assist you in resolving this issue.
    Before I can offer any suggestions I do need to know which version of Windows or Mac that you're using and how the printer is connected (wireless or USB). Once I have that information I should be able to help you better. In the meantime, if you're using Windows, please download and run the HP Print and Scan Doctor to see if it can assist with the issue at hand
    Hope to hear back from you soon! Have a great day

  • What is a pen problem.error msg reads as follows:print cartridges missing or not detected

    error msg reads as followsrint cartridges missing or not detected

    HP developers refer to the ink cartridge as a "pen".  
    Please read this post then provide some details.  What printer model? What operating system?  Cleaning the cartrdige contacts as shown in this document may resolve the issue.

  • Can u suggest a photo/art collection for Mac?

    I'm using Pages (Pages 1) to make some posters/brochures/programs for a conference.
    I am looking for high-res photos to use to make a 2' x 3' poster, as well as some photos/art to use for the programs.
    When I've found great photos to purchase (through, e.g. Getty Images) -- each high-res picture is more than $150 (half our printing budget- we're a small non-profit ).
    I've gone to stores and seen CDs with "300,000" photos and clip art on them -- but they all seem to be for Windows.
    Can anyone recommend a catalog of digital pictures that is inexpensive (less than $80) and compatible with Mac?
    I love having Pages, but I need more artwork to put in it!
    In case it matters: the pics I need are of a) nature and b) kids using t.v. & video games -- and should be at least 300 dpi.
    Thanks!

    Thanks Peggy and Barbara!
    I had checked out Nova as per cm752004's response (above) - they do have a lot of clips-art! Right now I'm drawn to photos and photo-cut-outs.
    For anyone in a similar place as I am (low in dollars but wanting good high-res photos), I would like to say that I am really pleased with what I bought from istockphoto. It was recommended to me on this thread, and I tried it. I searched (and advanced searched) through a huge assortment of member-posted photos and then was able to buy them in "small, medium, large, or x-large" formats for around $3, $5, $10, and $20 respectively. This is really handy when you want a pic for just web use and/or a pic for a poster (300 dpi) -- cheap, customized service.
    Thanks to everyone who has added to this question. I wonder if the next version of pages could include an "objects sampler" with 1000 searchable photo cut-outs like the ones they supply in their templates? It would be handy to be able to search and use them within the inspector.?.

  • Photosmart C7280 All in One error notice saying out of yellow ink when cartridge has been replaced

    Hello Forum members...I hope you can help me. 
    When I try and print something I get an error notice which says that I must replace the yellow ink cartridge and telling me I can print in Black only (which is fine because i usually use the greyscale fast print option anyway).  However the worrying thing is that the error notice also says that if I do not replace the yellow cartridge then the printer will cease to work.
    I did replace the cartridge quite some time ago.  An HP cartridge from HP online.  The cartridge is showing full on the bar chart display and yet still the error notice comes up when I try to print.
    I hardly use the printer.  I am a retired person who may occasionally print out the odd letter or email (I would say on average 2/3 pages per 2/3 weeks.)  I very, very occasionally print the odd photo....say twice a year 6 photos.
    I got the printer in 2008.  This was a replacement FOC for an earlier model of the same type.  It was one month out of guarantee when the earlier printer did exactly the same thing.  I had just replaced several cartridges (the first replacements). The printer was eventually replaced by the store I had bought it from because they could not repair it.  It just stopped functioning.  Some computer type glitch
    I am now afraid that if I do not act soon then this printer will seize up and be irrepairable.
    I do hope some teccy member of the forum will be able to help me.

    mine has an error notice that says yellow ink cartridge is empty ( when trying to print something off of the internet) though I have tried 3 new full ones.It also had a message that my printer could print black only. I've been angry for 2 days.
    Now, I found out my computer is lying to me! I decided to print a blonde hairstyle I liked off the internet and I hit "black only" since that's my only option. But, it printed in color. I realized I've missed 2 days of being able to print off the internet because my computer or printer was lying.

  • When importing photos into iPhoto I get an error Unreadable Files:

    When importing photos into iPhoto I get an error Unreadable Files: The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data).
    I can open the JPG in question with PREVIEW, photoshop etc.. actually if I try to import a photo that I had originally imported it also fails..
    Please help... Thank you..

    I too had this error message (and to be honest, it was becoming a bit of a pain). I resolved it in a slightly different way to Terence.
    I had 10 photos that were allegedly unreadable; however, as Terence rightly says, they are duplicates. When I opened iPhoto I mad a note of each of the files concerned and did a Spotlight search throughout my hard drive.
    For each photo, there were four or five duplicates. I deleted all but one of each of the photos and then reopened iPhoto. No more error message.
    The original problem stemmed from importing my files directly from an external device I was using with a previous computer [that was running XP].
    Anyway, hope this helps.

    You should call Apple Support and give them your Apple ID so that they can verify how many photos you actually do have backed up in iCloud...
    Also, are you able to do an iTunes backup at all? Because that would save all of the photos and allow you to get them onto the new device.
    Apple Support number is
