Ink Cartridges for Photosmart C5380

I don't seem to get a warning msg on my computer any more when an ink cartridge needs replacing ....how do I know which ones need to be replaced or how much ink they have left???

Hi - Follow step one in this document. It walks you thorugh the navigation on the control panel of the printer to determine ink levels.
Hope that helps.

Ink cartridge for photosmart can i used

Hi @tercio7
Not knowing your printer model makes it a little difficult to answer your question with a cut and dry yes or no, but I can help you figure it out!
HP 61 2-pack Black/Tri-color Original Ink Cartridges compatibility;
HP Deskjet 1000 Printer series - J110
HP Deskjet 1050 All-in-One Printer series - J410
HP Deskjet 2000 Printer series - J210

I guess that was easier than I expected. No, the 61 cartridges do not work with any Photosmart printers.

Can I use Replacement Printer ink cartridges for HP officejet Pro 8610

I recently purchased an HP OfficeJet Pro 8610. I previously had an 8600. They both use the same ink cartridges. I had just installed some remanufactured 950 XL and 951 XL cartridges in the old printer and tried to use them in the new printer. Of course I got an error message that cartridges weren't HP but the printer would still work. I would like to know if I can use other remanufactured ink cartridges with the new printer or if there is some way for the printer to allow me to use other ink cartridges as the HP cartridges are way over priced for the consumers. I hope there is a person out there that is conservative like me and tries to find the best bargains on everything. Your solutions would be appreciated. I waited on HP Support Assistant for 10 minutes with a dialogue I would be connected to a technician in less than a minute. They must have been on break or some other excuse, so I thought I would try this instead. Blessings. John Richardson

Hey @rockhoundjohn
Here's the thing, yes, you can refill your cartridges or use remanufactured cartridges, but you may run into problems.
QualityLogic, one of the world's foremost quality assurance organizations, tested the performance of HP inkjet print cartridges vs. remanufactured (refilled) brands. The results: original HP inkjet print cartridges far surpassed ink refills in both print quality and reliability.
Nearly one out of every six refilled ink cartridges tested was dead on arrival or failed prematurely
70% of refilled cartridges had some form of reliability problem
Count on HP original ink cartridges for consistent, worry-free printing. You may think you're saving money on remanufactured or refilled ink cartridges, but in the long run, the cost of wasted time, ink, and paper can more than make up the difference. - Source
Most people think, 'well of course that is what HP or an HP representative would say', but I have done some research and found that many others have too. Here is a perfect example of somebody who does not work for HP in any way and basically is a customer advocate (in my opinion) ; Should you refill your printer’s ink cartridges? HP says no (of course) By Matthew Murray
I found the above article interesting and genuine.
My personal recommendation is to buy the HP XL cartridges as they are more cost efficient, and be mindful in the printer you choose when buying an inkjet. The 8610 was a good choice. The expected page yield of the HP 950XL High Yield Black Original Ink Cartridge is 2300 pages. The regular size cartridge page yield is 1000, still good but the XL is by far a better value. Some of the Photosmart printers or Deskjets are great for what they are intended for, but do not have as good of a cost per page.
HP's recommendation; Keep in mind that page yield is just one component of cost, and that factors such as quality, reliability, productivity, and efficiency affect cost as well. Products that work reliably will ultimately save you time and money. When you choose an inkjet printer, make sure you consider your individual printing needs.
- Source
To summarize, again, yes you can refill the cartridges. The printer is not programmed to reject them. Sometimes the cartridges will not work and of course because they are non HP, HP would not be able to do anything to help. HP cartridges have a 2 year manufacture warranty; Limited Warranty for HP Ink Cartridges and Customer-Replaceable Printheads for HP Inkjet Supplies, this may give you comfort knowing HP stand behind their product.

All the levels sho full, and this is the second exchange. HELP! Please.

Failing that, is the printer still within warranty?

Black ink cartridge on photosmart printer 7250 not working

the black ink cartridge on my photosmart 7250 printer is not working. I've tried everything. I've aligned the cartridges and tried reprinting several times to see if the ink cartridge will start printing. Everything has failed. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

You're welcome, and thank you for the updated information
I will recommend that you follow the steps within this Fixing Print Quality Problems document first. If that however does not resolve the issue and the black continues to not print, please try manually cleaning the printhead follow the steps in this 'Missing or Failed Printhead' document for your printer.
If after both of those documents the black still isn't printing properly what I suggest next will depend on if your printer is in warranty or not. If the printer is still under warranty (use this warranty checker to find out) then please call our technical support team for further assistance. If the printer is no longer under warranty, you can try the printhead soaking steps from @Bob_Headrick.

New ink cartridges in Photosmart C5180 but still not printing clearly. How do I clean the heads?

I changed all 5 ink cartridges on my HP C5180 Photosmart All-in-One printer, but the print is still as if I'm out of black ink. How do I clean the heads and realign them?

steelpony5555 wrote:
When your printer stops printing one or 2 of the colors it means your print head is clogged. Tech support will have you remove the print head and clean the copper contacts on the bottom, but that is not enough. Hold the head in a rag and shake it, lots of ink will come out of the inside. I saw one case where the guy held his print head under hot water till it ran clear. Not sure of the long term effects on the head if you do that. Mine has clogged twice now and it has been ink inside the head.
I would absolutely suggest not shaking the printhead. Ink is required in the printhead, and if air gets into the printhead it can cause printhead failure. See this page for an ongoing discussion.
For the C5180 this is moot, since the printhead cannot be removed to shake it in the C5180 with its permanant printhead. I would suggest three levels of printhead cleaning as described in Step 3 of this page for the c5180.

Help! Problem with Ink Cartridge Compatibility Photosmart C4383 in my present location

Need your help! I bought my printer in the Middle East almost 2years already Photosmart C4383 with the Ink Cartridges 140(black) & 141(tricolor). Since, I already resides in my country now, the Philippines and I still use the printer. Just this week, I already run out of Ink Supply and decided to buy one. Since, I bought the printer in another country, I decided to check in the site for compatibility for Ink Cartridges. The results stated that the Photosmart C4383 belongs to Photosmart C4380 series and it also states there that HP74 (black) & HP75 (tricolor) are the compatible cartridges for the printer in my region. Since, I still have the tricolor 141 ink cartridge available, I decided to buy only the HP74 (Black) ink cartridge. But when I place the HP74 (Black) Ink Cartridge to my printer, I was surprised to see in the display screen that the Ink Cartridge I bought is not compatible with the printer. I was so disappointed because if I cannot use the product then I just waste of money and and check again and again in the sites for ink compatibility in my region but still stated the same that HP74 (black) is the compatible ink cartridge and also saw a result that states to "reset the printer to work in my current location". Needs your help to enlighten me and give me the right solutions for these problems and the steps how to do it the right way. I need to use my printer so badly. Thanks.

You will need to Contact HP and request a regionalization reset. This will require you have access to your computer and the printer while on the phone with the HP agent. If the C4383 is a model only sold in certain regions it may not be possible to have the region reset.

Need MICR compatible ink cartridge for Officejet Pro 8500A Premium to print checks.

I need to print bank accepted checks on my Officejet Pro 8500A Premium printer using MICR ink. I cannot find a compatible MICR cartridge for this printer. There are MICR cartridges available for other HP printers. Does anyone know of a compatible cartridge?

Try using the multilevel uninstaller in the HP software driver CD. Browse the contents of the CD and look for the "Util" folder and open it. In the "Util" folder, open the "CCC" folder. In the "CCC" folder, double click on the "Uninstall_L3.bat" file. Don't use the "Uninstall_L4.bat" file. It could remove files that have shared dependencies with the HP software. Restart the computer and then reinstall the software afterwards. Let me know if it worked or not.

Have just tried to replace TESCO colour and black and white ink cartridges for a model 2540.

Each time I get the same error message 'incompatable older generation ink cartridge'. Contacted TESCO help desk and they sent a pair of cartridges direct to me.......the latest ones they have in stock............................same error message............does this mean that in future NO Tesco ink cartridge will ever be able to be used on a 2540 printer, or is this a way of getting me to buy HP cartridges at twice the cost?

Hi Oto,
In India you should buy both the Black and Color 802 HP ink cartridges, then you should contact HP support and reset the printer for your region:
http://www8.hp.com/in/en/contact-hp/phone-assist.html#section1
Be aware that by resetting the printer for India only the 802 ink cartridges will be accepted by the printer unless you will reset it back for another region in the future, as well be aware that this process is limited and cannot be done more than 2-3 times for the device.

Bought the ink cartridge for Nort- America (HP no. 61), I am from West Europe (HP no. 301)

I have a HP Deskjet 1000 J110 Series printer. The print program I got from HP online, showed me (I was out of black ink) that I had to buy the cartridge No. 61. So I bought this online. I put the cartridge in the printer but I got the message that this cartridge was not the right one for my printer. I found out that I need the no. 301 because I have a printer from West Europe (where I live). The no. 61 cartridge doesn't work in my printer because this is the one for Nort America. Is there any way how I can solve this/how my printer can "accept" the no. 61? The cartridge fits in the printer totally fine. Thanks in advance, Femke

You will need to Contact HP to request a "Regionalization Reset". There should not be any charge for this, it is covered as part of the cartridge warranty. You will need to have access to your computer and printer while on the line with HP. You will also need to have a set of cartridges for the new region, once the reset is complete cartridges from the original region will no longer work. HP's web page on the subject is here.

Incompatible ink cartridge for hp deskjet ink advantage 3545

I recently purchased hp deskjet ink advantage 3545. Till yesterday it was working fine. Today it started giving an error of incompatible ink cartridge. I have neither changed the cartridge neither refilled the ink. In this forum I read that it could be issue of power cable.

Replacing Ink Cartridges for HP6520

HP Photosmart 6520. How can I tell which ink cartridge needs to be replaced, or do they all have to be replaced at the same time please?

The documnet here shows in Solution Two how to check the ink levels from the front panel and also has a vidoe of changing the cartridges. You do not need to change all the cartridges, only those that are low on ink.
