Inkjet Cartridge for Dummies (replaces HP 901XL)

I purchased the above cartridge as it was advertised as compatible with HP 4500 G510n-z. After installing it, it acknowledged the cartridge but could not detect ink levels. (It had a question mark on the black, compatible cartridge) in relation to the ink level.
Although it accepted it (and did not give me any errors), when I attempt to print in black, nothing appears. That included the special alignment page and any other document I try to print.
I looked a bit online and noticed that there seem to be problems with this cartridge. Are you aware of any specific problems with InkJet cartridges for dummies, 901XL?
I've tried bringing it to factory default and resetting the check sum. Nothing. It prints but nothing comes out on the page.

The quality of third party cartridges varies greatly but is generally poor. See the study here for details. I suggest contacting your supplier for a refund, then apply the funds to a genuine HP cartridge.

Hey @EASHWARJS ,
You need to follow their instructions and call HP Technical Phone Support to be able to use the defective warranty coverage on your cartridge to to able to get a new one.
If you are in Canada or US call 800 474 6836, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.

I hope this helps. Have a great day!

Inkjet Cartridge Warranty - HP DENIES CLAIM - HOW TO FILE A CLAIM?

I have a genuine 75XL cartridge which is 50% full. It no longer prints correctly, and cleaning has not helped in any way.
The date on the cartridge is 6 months in the future.
The HP Web site states that the warranty is as follows:
Ink Cartridges - The coverage lasts until the HP ink is depleted or the “Warranty Ends” date has been reached, whichever occurs first.
How to make a claim, or return an HP Inkjet product
If a problem with an HP Inkjet product occurs, visit the retailer, call the regional customer support phone number listed on the product insert, or click the "Contact HP" link at the top of this page before the end of the warranty period.
What HP will do
HP will, at HP's option, either replace products under warranty that prove to be defective or refund the purchase price.
Link is here
The web site says to go to a retailer for service. Staples is a reseller. Denied any process exists to support a defective cartridge unless bought with a printer.
Called HP. After being on hold 15 minutes, was told that warranty replacement MIGHT be possible IF;
- Cartridge installed within 2 months (do you keep track)?
- Was > 75% full
After 20 minutes discussing how the web site had no conditions, the agent kept offering more exceptions. I suppose if it were installed on a Tuesday afternoon, the warranty would apply. You get the picture.
What have others found. Does HP in fact warranty inkjet cartridges? How??
I still have the cartridge, and it's still 6 months until the warranty expires. HP so far has shown no interest in honoring their own published warranty policy on this product.
Time for a Lexmark printer??

I bought a bulk package of HP 901xl black cartridges from Sams club last year. The first cartridge ran out so I replaced it with the second cartridge. The second cartridge would not print at all. Mind you I made sure the protective tab was taken off, I attempted multiple times to clean the cartridge through the printer, I even cleaned the cartridge again when I got on the phone with hp support. Hp told me that I had to buy a NEW cartridge in order to test it in my printer before they would replace the defective one.
The HP ink cartridge warranty is about a good as the ink thats its printed with.

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.

I bought a 364 XL cartridge for my Photosmart 6510 printer, but it doesn't fit.

I bought a 364 XL cartridge for my Photosmart 6510 printer, but it doesn't fit—it's too wide. Yet the User Manual I downloaded from HP (helpfully called c02983796) clearly shows an illustration of the XL cartridge fitting in the printer. Advice?
This question was solved.

Which new inkjet printer for my iMac early 2008?

I need a new inkjet printer for my iMac early 2008 (until now I use an old Epson Stylus Photo 1200 which now is going to its end of life).
Which printer would you choose, especially for photo prints?
Thanks for your answers! :-)

I should have mentioned that I may have the same computer you have - a late (December) 2007 iMac. I continue to run 10.4.11 Tiger because of some antiquated software I use that is not compatible with later operating systems. An additional thing I like about the Canon is its five individual ink tanks. When one color runs out, I just change out that one cartridge and keep going.

L7780 hung up, Message "cartridge to expire, replace or hit OK to continue. even test print no go

L7780 worked fine for two years. Got a message " cartridges to expire, replace or hit OK to continue". Basically froze up. Wont' shut off. Pulled power off and on, and got screen saying "Aligning Printer" this never changes. Push off button, says shutting down but never does. Tried to print a test page but never gets past the que. Done the the usual reboot, etc. Don't know where to go next

I'm having this same issue. Have you found a solution?

Why 2 types of HP564 Black InkJet Cartridges?

I just bought my HP Photosmart B209A last month. I ran out of black ink. No problem ... I need a black 564 cartridge. So, I went to my local Walmart and bought one. Got it home and could not install it. The package says HP564 Photosmart, so I think I bought the right one. but no! Of course this is after I opened it and can not return it. Thanks, now I am out $10.00 all because HP can not label there products correctly. Why are there 2 types of 564 black cartridges? Yeah, I know (now) that one is for photos and one is for regular printing and some model printers use both. But my new B209A only uses the large pentagon style. No 564a or 564b or maybe a different number. No other designation unless you take the time to look under the 546 and see the little "photo black". Who would know, there is nothing in the manual that states the difference. it clearly states that this printer takes cartridge 564.
Obvoiusly Walmart does not know the difference either because the are all mixed in the same row.
Nice, gee thanks again HP! Will HP do anything about it? I guess I am doing my part to increase your profits. Next time, I will magically overlook all HP Products. Pretty pathetic for something as stupid as an inkjet cartridge.
This question was solved.

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.

Suggested inkjet printers for mac book air 2012

what is a good inkjet home printer for a macbook air 2012?

I've been strongly recommending Canon inkjet printers for a long time. They have separate cartridges for each color so there's minimal waste of ink. They don't get clogged if you don't use them for a while (I'm looking at you Epson). I've dealt with their customer support before via email and it has been very good and fast.

Why can\'t I print using the new black ink cartridge for my HP Photosmart 6510?

Please tell me what is wrong. Just purchased all new cartridges for my HP 6510 all in one machine. can't understand why it will not work. Just prior to going to the store I chanded the ink color to blue to complete a job because the black was getting gray. Now I can print in every color but black. All the levels sho full, and this is the second exchange. HELP! Please.

HP Photosmart 5510 error message "Ink Cartridges Must Be Replaced"

Okay, so I bought new ink cartridges for my printer because the old ones were dried up.
Before installing them, my printer had an error message saying there was an ink carrier jam. It was stuck in the right corner in its dock, but eventually I got it out and it was able to move left and right without difficulty again.
Now that the new ink cartridges are in there, it's saying they all must be replaced even though they're all new?
I followed every step in this guide before anyone posts it: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02924284&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc...
Is there anything else not mentioned in the above article that I could do to try and fix it?
Could it just be the ink cartridges- should I just go and exchange them? Or is it possible my printer is just broken/the aforementioned ink carrier jam had something to do with it?

Subforms For Dummies

I've been trying to create and populate a form with information obtained through a SQL query to an OBDC data source. The query works fine and I can view the the results of my query in the Data View. I did not upgrade to Designer 7 from any other "forms" creating software and I have never attempted to create a form before. I admit that I'm confused by the use of subforms. I haven't been successful in finding a "Subforms for Dummies" instruction booklet anywhere and quite frankly, the Help topics are more confusing than helpful. Certain aspects of my form work fine. My biggest difficulty is getting all of the information to flow down the page. I can display the first row of information from my query, but I never see the subsequent rows. Nothing I've tried works. I know I'm missing something very minute in the scheme of things but I'm ready to pull my hair out. I know there's an expert out there that's laughing at me, but I could use your help.
Thanks

Hello Rusty
I'll try to provide a "For Dummies" explanation for using subforms to deal with repeating data. So the scenario is that a Form is being used to present data; some XML structure with repeating complex elements is being passed into a form as an initial data set.
1. Define fields to display the elements for one set of data.
2. Wrap these in a subform and set the Content property to Positioned - you can then re-jig the positioning of the fields within the subform to give them the breathing space they need. Let's call this "pos_sub_form".
3. Wrap pos_sub_form in a subform and set the Content property to Flowed and the Flow Direction to (probably) Top-to-bottom. Let's call this "flow_sub_form".
A Flowed subform will re-jig it's content automatically to squeeze everything into as small space as possible. In this case it will squeeze multiple instances of the pos_sub_form (once we make it so that multiple instances are possible...)
4. Set the data binding of pos_sub_form to the repeating element in the data set and check/tick "Repeat Subform For Each Data Item" (you can also set Min and Max as required).
5. Set the data binding of the form fields to the elements within teh repeating group.
6. Check/tick "Allow Page Breaks In Content" for flow_sub_form.
7. Check/tick "Allow Page Breaks In Content" for the page subform.
Note that by making subform and field names match the data element names the binding can occur automatically. I would advise against this because be being "implicit" it is somewhat hidden and if the data structure changes the form will break but the reason why may not be obvious to whoever is supporting it, again because the binding is implicit.
Note that Flowed subforms squeeze all their content. You can use this to your advantage by including a "header" and "footer" within flow_sub_form before and after the pos_sub_form.
If you require a "continue on next page" type-of-thing, you can create a subform and set it as the "overflow trailer" of the pos_sub_form. Make the trailer a "referenced object" by dragging it in the Hierarchy if necessary. If you require repeated headers you can create a subform and set it as the "overflow leader" of the pos_sub_form. Note that being "overflow leader" might cause the header subform to only appear on pages 2 to x (as "Referenced object") unless you include it the flow_sub_form.
I think that's the crux of it. I hope it helps.

Feel the imacs supplied to India are sub standard ones

Folks have reported that the Apple policy is three major component failures and the Mac is replaced. For the first two the Mac is repaired. Apple would not risk alienating its customers from one of the most populated nations in the world, so its time to stop the "discriminating against the poor Indians and selling us sub-standard Macs" routine. Occasionally the universe aligns just right for there to be a Mac lemon. Folks in every country have experienced lemons. It is the hazard of manufacturing millions of Macs with even more millions of parts, all produced by different parts suppliers. And it is why the manufacturer's warranty exists.
Speak to the vender about a replacement. If necessary call Apple Care and request that your warranty service call be escalated to Customer Relations. Politely, but firmly, explain the situation and stand your ground that the solution to make you a happy customer is to have the Mac replaced. Don't make threats, mention lawyers or claim that Apple discriminates against Indians. If you do, you will have lost your case and Apple will then work with you from a distance and follow it policies and procedures to the letter, regardless of whether it makes you happy.

Looking for a replacement for iTool

I have been using iTool with 10.5.x to run daily, weekly and monthly scripts, as well as cache cleanup, permissions repair, disc verify and repair, etc. I also was using Applejack. I recently upgraded to 10.6 (updated to 10.6.2 now) and upon opening iTool and checking for updates it appears that this app is no longer in development or available. I have also looked into a newer version of Applejack for 10.6.x, which has not been released yet either. Does anyone have any suggestions for a replacement of these apps? I am having problems booting and have booted up with the 10.6 install DVD to run Disc Utility, but it doesn't repair a couple of items and the iMac will not start up completely. I get to the blue screen right before the welcome screen and the spinning gears will show up, disappear, then show up, disappear, and so on. I fear that I may have a bad HDD but would also like suggestions for diag options. My warranty is now expired so I can't just simply go to the Genius Bar and get free assistance. Any suggestions?

Have you done this:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Your hard drive may be OK but if the directory is too corrupted to be repaired, then you will need to reformat the hard drive. Please report what the DU errors said.
