I have a hp f380 all in one printer all 3 lights are blinking

I followed all the instructions on hp.com nothing has worked. I just bought new cartridges for the printer it has aligned 3 times already but won't copy or scan because the ink cartridge light, paper jam and power lights are all blinking at the same time what can i do? I have windows vista all the software for the printer is already installed and I use it for my compaq presario laptop. The usb cord was disconnected for 60 seconds. I also powered it off removed and re-inserted the ink cartridges and even the paper the lights still blink. And checked for paperjams

Try working through this support document. it walks through resetting the power module and testing it. It also includes a video which is very helpful.

  • Deskjet 6127 -- All the lights are blinking; can't turn it off. Cartridges are stuck.

    Has anyone had this problem?  I have a Deskjet 6127, all the lights are blinking.  I can't turn it off.  If I unplug it and plug it back in,  (which is what it says to do on the troubleshooting site) the lights continue to blink.  The ink cartridges won't slide out.  Any suggestions on saving this printer from impending doom?

  • Ideapad u310 is not powering up - all lights are blinking

    Hi, i got a u310 that is not starting. Not only not booting, but not powering up at all. Plugged or unplugged the result is the same. All lights are blinking when i press the power or novo button(power button, power led, battery led and caps lock light, all white). They all blink together each 5 seconds and i hear a small click, like it's trying to power on or something. I can however press the power button again for a couple of seconds to turn it off.
    The battery led blinks only when it is unplugged. When it is plugged, the battery light stay on(solid, white).
    Anyone can help ? I've looked through the forum and could'nt find anything about this.
    Thanks in advance

    1. Remove any peripherals connected to the laptop.
    2. Remove any power strips and surge protectors.
    3. Remove the battery.
    4. Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    5. Install the battery back and try to power ON.
    6. Connect the charger and try to power ON.

    Hello snodgrassium,
    I see that this is your first visit with us here on the HP Forums. Please let me take a moment to say "Welcome"
    I hope you enjoy your experience!
    To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I see that you are having an issue with the light on the printer staying on solid.  One thing that you can try is to make sure 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 link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. 
    Once you have the power cable in a wall outlet, power cycle the printer with the use of the ON/OFF button.
    If you are still having issue or if you have any other questions, please feel free to write me back.
    Hope you have a great Tuesday.

    Hello Bruarong,
    It sounds like you are unable to print to your printer from Mac OS X Lion. I recommend the troublehsooting from the article named:
    Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3147
    Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
    Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
    Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
    Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
    Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
    Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
    If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
    Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
    If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again.  Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
    Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • I have an deskjet f4180 that won't print documents unless they are in pdf format.

    I am using windows xp service pack 3.  There has been no added programs or hardware.  The printer will copy with no problem.  I'm not getting any error messages, but the print jobs will sit in the que for a while sometimes.  I have run the troubleshooting program--which finds no problems and have reinstalled the drivers with no change in the printers actions.   It will print the test page with no problem.  Thanks for any help you can give me

    David,
    I have tried with Adobe myself but to no avail.  They are inconsiderate, and just downright rude and will not support the issues.  They claim it's because it's a free product. 
    I am forced to keep an old computer for all of the books that I brought only because they will not open anywhere else.  I have seen alot of crap on the internet about how to conver them but none seem to be easy or successful.  I have alot of ebooks that just will not open anywhere else but that one pc.  I have tried just about everything.  I wish there was an easy hack to this issue.  I hate adobe.  I can't wait until there is some kind of law suit against them.   I will definately take part in every way I can.  Sorry for not having any better info on this.

    Subject: I can't open my ebooks which are in PDF
    I'm having the same problem and I'm in my third iteration with Adobe Tech Support via e-mail.  They couldn't fix it and sent me to this forum to see if anyone else had fixed the problem themselves.
    So does anyone have a solution yet?  Can these files be converted to regular pdf files that don't require Digital Editions?  It's a nice interface but the program doesn't work correctly.
    Adobe's Digital Editions now prevents me from reading 4 out of 7 of my e-books.  Moreover, I can't believe there's no one at Adobe that can fix this problem.  Just as surprising is how little they seem to care.
    I would appreciate some help if anyone has an answer.  This is really disheartening.
    Thanks in advance,

  • Hp officejet 6310. I keep getting a reset power error message, all the lights are flashing

    HP Officejet 6310 All in One printer.  Computer is a HP Pavillion a1410n. Operating system is Windows xp media center edition. Version 2002.
    I keep getting a reset power message on my HP officejet 6310, flashing lights. Machine is unresponsive. I have tried to reset power by unplugging power cord  and plugging it back in while holding down the # key and 3, 6 or 9 keys.
    Tried taking out the ink cartridges and put them back in. Now the printer says my tri color ink cartridge is depleated. It is not.
    The test page is perfect and the alignment page is fine when it prints out. I have always used genuine HP ink cartridges.
    The main problem is it starts up fine then after set up it goes to the reset power message with the flashing lights. Sometimes I can clear it but then the camera icon flashes and the machine is still unresponsive. Please help !

    I have the same problem with my HP 6310xi.
    I never get to a point where I can print the page because it is always doing cartridge alignment.
    If the cartridge alignment is canceled, The machine will complete it start up and provide a functional scanner and printer.
    This condition is unstable and it may revert any time to the power reset lights flashing at which time you can do the cancel procedure, but this is a real bother.
    I am truly getting unhappy with Hewlett-Packard and their printers. Their proprietary cables. Their proprietary voltages and their installation software that throws garbageware on your computer.
    I have an Epson it seems to be working over 10 years now and my problem is becoming one of finding ink supplies. In addition, I can fit a full-page which you cannot do with the HP. There a genius engineers had decided that you do not need that last half-inch no matter how much you want it.

  • WRH54G ALL LIGHTS ARE BLINKING WHAT SHOULD I DO?

    Hi,
    All the lights of my router are all blinking and the light of the ethernet on my modem is dead everytime i plug in my router but if i directly connect my dsl modem to my computer its working. any help on this thanks.

  • Problem with WRT54G. All lights are Blinking

    I do not know very much about technology and my router stopped working correctly. Now, the lights of Power, Internet, and the ones of the numbers 1 and 3 are blinking and the wireless connection does not work. Can anyone explain me what to do to solve this? I will be very grateful. Javier

    hi... power cycle the n/w by unplugging power cable of modem and router, by unplugging power cable of modem and router...wait for couple of minutes, power up the modem first and once modem is rebooted power up the router, check whether lights stopped blinking or not, if lights are still blinking in that case you may need to reset the router back to factory default settings by pressing reset button on the back panel of the router but before you can reset the router let me know which internet connection are you using...so that i can tell you step by step configuration of the router...
