Ofice jet keeps repeating re-insert color cartridge.....WIN XP 32bit please advise soon!

Hello there! Welcome to the forums @MartyZ80
I read your post and wanted to reply back to you!
I am unable to locate an "Officejet 720" model however, this will apply to printers in general.
If the printer is in an error state, such as requesting you to replace a cartridge, you won't be able to perform any functions on the unit until the cartridge is replaced and the message goes away.
I hope that clears up your concern!

Can I use the black ink cartridge only, & quit replacing the color cartridge when it's empty?

I have an HP Officejet 6210 all in one printer that takes color ink (#95) and black ink (#94). I only want to print in black and white. The color cartridges are more expensive and since I don't want to use them, I don't want to replace it. Can I have the printer bypass the color cartridge (and the notifications that come with an emply cartridge) so it will allow me to use the black cartridge (#94) only and let the #95 sit there empty? (ie it tries to print from there and I get the blank sheets...want to default it to the black ink cartridge 100% of time.) I waste too much money on ink and wish to use the cheaper cartridge (#94) always.

Can't agree more. HP's strategy of getting more sells of its cartrige is notorious. It really drives consumers away. I am ditching my HP printer and getting a Brother instead.

Black cartridge not recognizing when inserted the colour cartridge

model: HP Deskjet 2515
os: win 7(x64)
recently I have replaced black cartridge(hp 678) and a message appears saying "ink cartridge failture-black".Although I unplugged and replugged the printer, problem exists.Then I removed colour cartridge from the printer and then only the black cartridge detected.After re-inserting the colour cartridge the problem appears again.

Hello TamilSelvam, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see you are running into print quality issues. I would like to help.
I would recommend removing your ink cartridges, and performing a power reset. Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
I would then suggest utilizing the steps in this document on Troubleshooting Print-Quality Issues.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

Officejet 4500 Wireless repeatedly asks me to realign cartridges in Win7

My Officejet 4500 Wireless All-in-One functions quite well, so far, except for one detail:
If I turn the printer on AFTER starting up Windows 7, the printer always asks me to align the cartridges, and most of the time, whenever I try, I get an alignment failure message.
If I turn the printer on BEFORE I activate Win7, or restart Win7 while the printer is still on,, I get the check mark telling me that the printer is ready. The only thing that migyht screw that up is if I turn the printer off while I'm still in Win7, then turn it back on. Then it asks me to realign the cartridges again.
I get the same problem in Windows XP, but not as frequently. Usually, when I turn the printer on AFTER starting up WinXP, I get the 'Align cartridges' message at first, but once in a while it corrects itself and it changes to a check mark and the printer is ready.
Is there a fix for the problem with the alignment test in Win7 (or XP, for that matter), or should I reinstall the software for my printer?

HI,
As you are in the US I suggest you call your local support first.
800-HP invent
or

As the product is new it still should be in warrenty, and if they not able to solve to your liking (which will be unlikely) you can always go back to the store.

The color picker needs some serious love

Please just make it function exactly like photoshop.....
Things I cannot do but want to:
When I have a gradient on an object - and i click on one of the little things to select a different color in the gradient(object A) and get the eyedrop tool and select an color from another object(object B) - give us the option somewhere...a setting or something to NOT replace the gradient (object A) with whatever the eyedropper took. So if i have an object with a gradient(object B) and color pick a color on it - I don't want object B's gradient to completely replace Object A's gradient. I just want it to take the color of that specific part of the object and apply it to the tick in the gradient on object A....just like in photoshop.
Let us paste hex codes into them in one shot....i dont want to type in the hex code in 3 different fields, just give me one darn field!

Oh well I didn't know about the shift clicking....live and learn.
Still...adding in hex codes in one line would make my life so much easier.
Also, right now when you double click on a swatch from a gradient you can pick a color via clicking the default selected color icon or swatches...adding a color wheel icon under those two icons would be really nice...just like in photoshop.

HP OfficeJet Pro 8500A Plus - By passing expired Color Cartridges to print only in Black printing.

Hi,
Problem:
fIt seems that this model of printer has a built in protocol which makes the printer inoperable if any of the colour cartridges are past their expiry date. Attempts to print solely in black are also being prevented because of this.
Does anybody know how permit black printing only without the need to replace colour cartridges rarely used.
Apple Mac PCs and laptops are connected to the printer wirelessly.
I look forward to any info which rids me of this frustrating problem.

Hello popkc, and welcome to the HP Forums.
I see you are looking into ink options. Due to the design of the printer, it does require functional ink as to not cause damage to the print system. There is no way to override this.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums.

Did you delete these photos from your iPhone?
Look in the Camera Roll, not the Photo Stream.

ITunes. Entire music list has the exclamation marks and I can't open music because it cannot be located. I'm 67yr old and need advice please.

I'm unable now to play the music in my iTunes playlists. 90% of the tunes have exclamation marks now and I can't 'locate' the music. How can I locate the music or remove the exclamation marks on my iTunes music list?

Typical reasons for missing files are, you've deleted the files, they are on a disconnected external drive, or the drive has a changed drive letter, you've moved the folder where the files live in some other fashion, a third party app has rearranged the files, or iTunes has got confused about the layout they are supposed to be in.
Generally you need to work out what has happened, reverse the action and everything will be alright again. If it is something you can't/don't want to undo, e.g. a drive letter change, then as long as you can track down the current location of the folder containing the media then my script FindTracks should be able to reconnect it to iTunes.

My mac keeps freezing and showing the color wheel how can that be fixed

my mac is soooo slow. It is very frustrating. Has been noticeable worse since downloading Lion. Any suggestions

Your machine is 4 years old, it's too dated to run the fat cow Lion.
Revert to Snow Leopard as it's faster and better for that model.

I did an upgrade from 4.0 to the new 6.0 about 5 months ago. After the upgrade installed it said reboot system to apply upgrade. Now it wont open and keeps telling me that the older version needs to shut down the computer and upgrade the old version.

Look at original question. When I did the download to the new 6.0 it said everything was fine. Then when I tried to use the firefox again it said an older version needed to shut down my computer so that it could upgrade the old version. It wont let me do anything and all it says is shut down computer so old version can upgrade. It wont let me open the program or remove it or anything. PLease help me with this. I really like Firefox but this has been going on for 5 months now and I still dont get answers from you. How do I fix this???

Greeting to everyone in the community, I need help please

I have a problem with my Centro, when I put the micro disk into my Centro it will recognize the disk, and let me format it. However, when I try to save anything to the disk, it won't save and then it tells me the "No Card Inserted". This is my second unit (CENTRO), I switched it thinking that the unit was bad and it is happening to this as well.
I am hoping that there is something I am not doing or doing wrong.

Is your card a 4GB microSD card? That is the maximum card size for the Centro.

Having a problem with Pro Tools and Quiktime may be the cause. Need advice.

I recently installed Pro Tools recording software on my Mac and everytime I try and open the program I get a kernel panic "restart" screen. I have been told that it may have something to with my Quiktime version.
I am running
OSX version 10.4.7
Pro Tools version 7.1
and Quiktime version 7.0.4
Could this be my problem? thanks

A fax file is simply a TIFF file. If you converted it to a PDF (you did not give any info on your workflow), then you have a graphic. The conversion to Excel will also be a bunch of graphics I guess. You would need to run OCR first. Even then you may not get the column information and may have to copy column by column using alt key when selecting the text. That allows you go copy a column.

I'm on the fence and need help, please.

My service contract is up and I'm ready to get a new phone. I want a touch screen phone with no data plan and I'm turn between the Lg cosmos touch and the KIN 2m. I have seen a lot of mixed reviews on the 2m and mostly positive reviews for the cosmos touch. I have held the cosmos touch in the store and really liked the feel of the phone, seemed very solid and well built. The stores in my area do not carry the 2m and they almost scolded me when I asked about it.
My current phone uses are just talk with very light texting, the camera on my current phone is so bad that I don't use it and it's not an mp3 player either. I would like my new phone to be a good talk phone with a decent camera and mp3 player which the 2m seems to have covered, but I do have a few questioned for you as follows.
1. With only 8Gig of memory probably less usable about how many songs will the 2m hold?
2. Does the phone feel well built and solid like the cosmos touch?
3. Does the radio use up your minutes or is it free?
4. How would you rate the camera?

As for physical quality of the phones, the cosmos touch is better. It has a more durable feel to it. However, i would still pick the Kin 2m. The front of the phone is very rigid and strong, the only drawback to the Kin's physical quality is its battery door. It is thin and feels cheap. However, i put a Skinomi 'Techskin' on my phone yesterday, and i am very satisfied with it. Along with a few rubber bumpers on the inside of the battery cover, it makes the phone feel as solid as any other. As mentioned, cases are available for this phone, too. Their quality is pretty good, the only drawback is the slightly added bulk. However, with the Techskin (similar to Zagg's invisibleshields..only better), i feel like i have adequate protection for the phone. It also fixes the slippery feeling of the battery door texture. The skinomi skins cost $10 for the screen only, and $18 for the full skin (front and back). It has a lifetime replacement warranty too, and from reviews i've read, their customer service is good enough to hold you to that.
I would recommend the Kin 2m. Your phone needs are very similar to what i was looking for about a month ago when i upgraded phones: calling/texting, and a camera (and in your case, an MP3 player). Its call quality is exceptional in my opinion, both the earpiece and speakerphone. The camera is top-notch, @ 8mp and HD video. You do have to hold the phone still while taking the picture, but that is the same with any phone camera (their shutter speeds are quite a bit slower than regular cameras). It has fully incorporated Zune player in it, along with FM radio (the radio is free, but you do have to plug in headphones to use it; it uses the headphones as an antenna). The 8 GB is plenty big for me. As for how many songs it can hold, it will vary from the quality of the music you have. Standard is 160 kbps, but for me personally, i can drop it all the way down to ~112 and still not notice the decrease in sound quality (i'm pretty sure the Zune software has a way to do this, i'm not familiar with it though, i know iTunes can do it though..). That allows me to add 1.5x more music to the same amount of storage space. Create a few playlists and add your favorite albums/artists, and you'll still have plenty of storage.

Upgrading Unity 4.0.5 to version 8 and replacing the server. Need advice for most efficient upgrade path.

Hello,
I need to upgrade Unity 4.0.5 without failover to Unity 8, and we are replacing the server as well.
What would be the most efficient upgrade path for this?
Thanks!!

Brian,
The most efficient path is to use COBRAS. I have a number of posts explaining the overall process. At the highest-level, this allows you to build out the new Unity 8x environment, get it integrated with AD/Exchange, and then build out configurations that don't migrate over (there are a few which are highlighted in the COBRAS help). From there, you migrate data over from the 4x system. There may or may not be a few steps along the way but they are outlined in numerous posts I've contributed to regarding COBRAS and also in the COBRAS Help which is located at www.ciscounitytools.com.
