I have a photosmart c309 premium fax series. my problem is that it wont print any color.

I have replaced the printhead with a new one. replaced all cartridges with new hp cartridges still no luck. this is really getting terrible since I have spent so much money on this. I have had it just over a year, and of course the warranty is done on it.

citytocity,
You may want to try a hard reset if you haven't already.
Here are the steps below provided by bassergitz on this post.
Hard Reset – While printer is powered ON, pull
the power cord from the printer then from the
wall. After 30 seconds reconnect power to wall
and printer. This will trigger a ‘dirty power up’
and restore the printer to a known good
condition (if it is possible). No user settings are
lost with a ‘hard reset’.

    I have an iphone 4 and i'm having lot of problems:
    _ my back camera is blurred although my front camera is fine and working normally
    _ my biggest problem is that the screen is showing colored horizontal lines(as perhaps electrical problems). The phone did fell and I already changed its back and front but everything was normal until these problems appeared suddenly
    Please can somebody help me to solve it and tell me what are the reasons?
    Thx

    you can try turning it off and on again, but i doubt that's gonna work, that sounds like more of a hardware issue. Your best bet may be to contact apple and seek service or replacement

    i have a mac os x snow leopard. my problem is that when i go to the ethernet settings it shows 'not connected'. i called the internet person even he couldn't fix it PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    System Preferences > Network > Ethernet? If that shows "not connected" that is all your Mac knows. As far as it is concerned there is no cable connected to the port on your Mac, or the other end of the cable is either disconnected or connected to something that is broken.
    Try another cable. If the cable is broken you will also get that status message. If you have exhausted all of these possibilities, the only remaining cause is an inoperative port on your Mac.

  • I have a new telephone company since yesterday, the problem is that my IPhone 4 is blocked so I can't make any phone calls neither receive them

    I have a new telephone company since yesterday, the problem is that I can't make phone calls or receive them.  Maybe my IPhone 4 is blocked.

    Did you get a new unactivated micro-SIM card from your new carrier or one that was already activated?
    Regardless, if your iPhone is officially unlocked you need to contact the new carrier.

  • HP photosmart premium fax C309a scanner problem

    Wireless printer works, but when I try to use the scanner to attach to an email, it says to go to computer first.  I go on my wireless laptop and it wants a passcode for the scanner, but I don't have one.  It won't allow me to make one.  It doesn't seem to recognize the printer is also a scanner.

    Hello @laugh5 ,
    Welcome to the HP forums.
    I understand that you are having problems scanning to email with your C309a.
    I would like to help.
    It seems like something has gone wrong with the software.
    Try running the HP Print and Scan Doctor.
    If that does not fix the issue, have you tried an uninstall then reinstall?

  • I have an HP Photosmart Premium 309g-m all in one that is not printing.

    I turned it off and on but the trouble shooter is saying it is turned off.  The wireles connection light is lit so I am at a loss as to what to try next.

    From the front of the printer: Setup > Network < Wireless Network Test Report.  What does it say about its wireless radio?

  • I have new Photosmart 6510 Model B211A How do I reduce/enlarge patterns and print them.

    I can enlarge a pattern from my saved scan but when I try to print it.  It prints the original image not the enlarged image which is showing.

    Hi Troll1981,
    What operating system are you using ?
    Here is a link to a post that solved this problem for someone else.
    If you are using Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) OS you will need to install the critical update provided in the link.
    Otherwise, here are the steps ShlomiL listed.
    Now change the settings as following:
    1. Open the HP Utility and select your device.
    2. From Scan Settings open the "Scan to Computer".
    3. Click the "Scan Tasks" tab.
    4. Select the Scan Shortcut used to scan, then click Edit.
    5. In the section of Scan from an HP Device click on the blue triangle to enlarge the menu.
    6. From the enlarged menu now open the drop-down menu next to Crop To and set as None.
    7. Click OK and try scanning.
    Hope this helps.

  • I have Google 2-Step Authentication, which is causing problems in Apple's Mail program, any advice?

    I have Google 2-step authentication on my Gmail accounts, and until recently have used it with no problems whatsoever.  What you have to do is generate an "application specific password" for apps where you cannot enter you "google authentication code".  I generated the password to use with my Apple Mail program that comes as the default on Mac OS, however every time I get on my computer it asks for the password again.  This must be a problem with the software, because I use it with no problems on my Iphone.  Any ideas or solutions?
    Thanks!!!

  • Photosmart Premium Fax squealing noise

    Hello,
    I have a new Photosmart Premium Fax C309a.  It seems that some time after a phone call the printer emits a low volume, high pitched squealing noise.  Activating the printer by pressing a button or lifting the cover make the noise immediately stop.
    Has anybody else experienced this problem?
    Thanks in advance,
    Doug

    Anybody?

  • My f4180 prints in color eventhough I have it set to print in black only.

    I have been using my F4180 for a couple of years now. I have always used HP cartridges. For some reason, it will now only print in color. I installed a new black cartridge and the printer recognizes and that there is ink in the cartridge. When I remove the color cartridge it prints in black just fine, but as soon as I reinstall the color cartridge it prints only in color. I have never changed the printer preferences to anything but black only. I have run the diagnostic and it says everything is just fine, as long as I leave the color cartridge in. Any ideas on what to do?
    Another issue is that in Print Preview all I see is a blank page. It prints fine but shows absolutely nothing in print preview. That is new as well. Any ideas on that?
    Thank you.
