Paper feed out of sync on HP PSC 1510 All-in-One Printer Scanner

Paper feed out of sync on HP PSC 1510 All-in-One(SN MY59SD224W0498). Goes to flashing orange light. With Vista Home Premium 32-bit, 6.0.6002 Service Pack 2 Build 6002. USB connection to HP Pavilion GU658AA-ABU a6250.uk .
After cleaning ink drip tray including removing & refitting the small panel in the base towards the rear RHS of the printer and also Super Glueing a small wedge of timber to close split shaft bearing for rear print feed rollers - looking from rear with clean out door removed this is at the LHS where the cogs are - paper feed is out of sync. When turned on with paper in feed tray printer draws in paper until about 2" (5cm) of paper protrudes from delivery slot & then stops. Paper jam is indicated by flashing orange light. On pressing Cancel/Resume, paper is expelled & another sheet taken in with the same results. Have turned off & restarted. Have moved cartridge cleaner tray right from front to rear & tested & then brought it right forward again & tested. Have turned off & unplugged power & USB & restarted after more than 30 minutes. Have uninstalled driver & downloaded & installed anew. Downloaded & ran the HP Print Diagnostic Utility. All to no avail. Any suggestions anyone?

Hi there nobster,
This article should cover the blinking light. However, I suspect the printer requires servicing.
Best of Luck!

Connecting HP PSC 2355 All-in-One printer/scanner using USB cord

I have a Time Capsule that I use to back up both my Mac Mini and my MacBook Pro and would like to connect my HP PSC 2355 All-in-One Printer/Scanner to the network using USB cord and plugging it into the back of my TIme Capsule. I tried this once, but was unable to find the Printer. I would like to set it up so I could use both the Printer and the Scanner from either my MacMini or my MacBook Pro. It would be really cool if I could figure out a way to use Back to My Mac to print when I am away from home and using my MacBook Pro at a WiFi Hotspot. Is this possible? How can I do it? Suggestions? Thank you!

+would it be possible to split the USB cord coming from the Printer+
I'm afraid not. The connection must be direct to either the TC or your computer, but not both at the same time.
Apple's Printer Troubleshooting Guide will guide you through the process of setting up the printer. Unfortunately, Apple does not offer a printer compatibility list, so the only way to really know if your device is compatible is to try to see if it can be configured.
Perhaps HP would could help in this regard.

PSC 1510 All in one printer - won't print even black and white when colour cartridge not recognised

My PSC 1510 All in one printer is flashing the "check printer cartrige icon" and both "Black" and "Colour" icons at the bottom left of the printer.
It won't print at all, even when I select grayscale (black and white). The help pages tell me that if I remove the colour cartridge the printer will switch to backup mode and I'll still be able to print in black and white (though not copy or scan). But this is not the case, and I can find no way of switching manually to backup mode. The help pages have no useful explanation of backup mode. I've also tried cleaning the cartridge (which I'm pretty sure isn't empty) but that makes no difference.
Can anyone help? I'd be very grateful.

With only one cartridge light blinking I would suspect the cartridge, they do rarely fail (much more often for reman cartridges, see here). Clean the cartridge contascts as shown here. If that fails and the cartridge is an original HP then check the warranty date as shown here. If the cartridge is in warranty return it to your dealer for a warranty replacement.
The printer will automatically switch to backup mode if the black (or color in some printers) cartridge is removed. I do not know if this works with the PSC 1510, some all-in-on devices insist on having both cartridges present.

Windows RT and HP PSC 1510 All-in-One printer connection

Hi, I have a Windows 8.1 RT tablet (Microsoft Surface 2) and a wired HP PSC 1510 All-in-One printer. Now when I plug in the printer via the USB, there is no driver that can be found to make this printer work with my device. Anyone have this problem or any solutions? I've tried looking at HP support and nothing there has been helpful.
Let me add that on the Microsoft Surface, you cannot run .EXE files which are the file types of the HP drivers.
Thanks ahead
This question was solved.

Hi,
I afraid the printer is not supported on Windows RT, as you may find listed within the following support document:

Installing HP PSC 1350 all-in-one printer/scanner

In the past, I could usually solve the "Offline" or "Not Connected" problems by unplugging my printer for a few minutes, but that no longer works. So, I decided to buy another one. However, just before clicking on the BUY button on Amazon, I decided to try to fix the problem one more time. Part of the "fix" was deleting my printer from the computer and then reinstalling it. This is where I'm now stuck. I deleted it, but I can't reinstall it. I get to the ADD window, but everything is grayed out. So, how do I install my printer? I might add that the HP instructions that I was following (OSX v. 10.9 Mavericks- Installing and using the printer on a Mac) are what got me this far.

Have you installed the v10.9 Mavericks compatible driver yet >> Software & driver downloads HP PSC 1350 All-in-One Printer | HP® Support
After you download the driver, open System Preferences > Printer & Scanners > Print
Delete the current printer by selecting it then click - (minus)
Then click + to add the printer back in.
That should load the driver for you.

HP PSC 1510 All in One Printer

My all in one printer won't feed the photo paper into the printer even though I have changed all the settings to "best" and "glossy." I have shut the printer down, unplugged it and it still won't work. I read that you an use a "HP Paper Feed Cleaning Kit" to clean the rollers but I don't see anywhere to purchase it on this site. Does anyone have any ideas about why the printer isn't pulling the glossy paper up into the printer? Thank for you help!

I have been researching this for days! My mom recently gave me her 1510 All-In-One & I didn't have a problem until about a week after I got it. No matter if it's plain paper or photo paper, it's like it doesn't grab the paper & then that darn error light starts flashing!! I had to feed the paper manually.. and now just within the last two or three days, it won't even work when I do it that way!! I'm so frustrated! I googled it and it seems as if quite a few people have had this same problem! One thread recommended reinstalling the driver, so I did that... and nothing. I tried cleaning the rollers as well... still nothing! I'm going to keep researching. If I find a solution I'll let you know tahoedrmr, otherwise.. if anyone else who happens to come along & knows how to solve this problem, I would greatly appreciate the help!!!!

Can't scan from brand-new HP PSC 1600 all-in-one printer/scanner/copier

Just installed this new all-in-one, and the printer and copier work perfectly. But when I try to scan, it won't do anything. Error message says to configure a "scan destination." But the menu to do so, on the desktop, won't open at all. Just stalls and stalls. Everything else seems to work fine, so no connection problems. Anybody know how to shake this menu loose?
iMac G3, iBook G3 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I've been using the HP psc 1210v for about a year now, and I've always been able to print, but scanning (which I do very infrequently) has always been a problem. Typically, to use the scanner, I have to remove the printer and re-install with the latest drivers from HP's (currently 7.7.2).
So, after doing this again, I was able to scan a couple of images by using the "HP Device Manager". I just double-click on "Scan Picture", which opens the "HP Scan" application, and I can choose from there how to scan; either opening in another Application or Save to File.
I'm using 10.4.6, but I know I originally scanned some images using this printer in 10.3.9. Hopefully this will continue to work!

Problems with my HP PSC 1510 All-In-One Printer

I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem that I've been having. I just bought a new computer and had to upgrade my printer to Windows 7. I had no trouble with the installation process, but ever since I've downloaded the update, EVERY time I go to print something, a test page prints out first. This is totally wasting ink and I was wondering if someone could help me fix this menacing problem. Many thanks in advance!!!!

Does hp support a HP psc 1500 all in one printer

I can not print in black. I've re uninstalled and re installed my printer at least 6 times, can not find my printer which is a HP psc 1500 all in one listed therefore I used software for 1510 all in one. It prints all text in light blue. I've tried changing my printing preferences many different ways. Nothing seems to correct this problem. I've run a test page and it printed two lines in black( black print read HP PSC 1500 series and my serial number on the second line) and 3 color blocks and the rest was small squares and small lines in 3 columns. My frustration level is at an all time high. I've literally spent an entire day trying to fix this problem. Please help before I do something RASH. Thank You, Greta2

Hey @greta2,
Welcome to the HP Support Forum. I understand you're having a print quality issue with your HP PSC 1500 All-in-One Printer. I would like to assist you in resolving this and have some steps that may improve your print quality. You were correct in using the 1510 All-in-One drivers as they are compatible with your printer. Additionally, you were very diligent in approaching the problem from a software perspective - this rules out printer settings as being the most likely cause of the absence of black ink in your printouts.
From what you're describing with the test-page printout, I would recommend that you troubleshoot the issue at the hardware level. For starters, click on the following article heading and work your way through Steps 2 through 6 to better diagnose the issue:
Missing, Faded, or Dull Colors
As I suspect your print diagnostic page (Steps 3-6) will be lacking black ink in some parts as before, proceed with the following steps:
Run the clean print cartridges utility
Open the Printer Toolbox. There are two ways to do this:
Open HP Director (or HP Solution Center), select the Settings menu, then the Print Settings submenu, and finally the Printer Toolbox.
Open Printers and Faxes in the Windows Control Panel, then right-click your printer icon and choose Properties. Click on Printing Preferences. Click the Services tab, then the Service This Device icon.
The Printer Toolbox opens. On the Device Services tab, click Clean the Print Cartridges , then follow the on-screen instructions. Up to three levels of cleaning are available. Discard or recycle the page that prints.
Clean the contacts
Gather the following items to clean the cartridge and carriage:
Clean distilled water. Use bottled or filtered water if distilled water is not available. Tap water can contain contaminants that damage the cartridge.
Clean cotton swabs or any soft, lint-free material that will not stick to the cartridges (coffee filters work well).
Sheets of paper or a paper towel to rest the cartridge on during cleaning.
Open the cartridge access door and wait until the carriage is idle and silent.
Disconnect the power cord from the back of the printer.
Remove the cartridge and place it on a piece of paper with the nozzle plate facing up.
NOTE:Do not leave the cartridges outside of the printer for more than 30 minutes. If the cartridge is outside of the printer for too long, the ink can dry and clog the nozzles.
Dip a clean foam-rubber swab or lint-free cloth into distilled water, and then squeeze any excess water from it.
Clean only the copper-colored contacts
Figure : Clean the contacts
Copper-colored contacts
Ink nozzles (do not clean)
Repeat these steps for the other cartridge.
Lightly moisten another cotton swab with distilled water, and then squeeze any excess water from the swab.
Use the swab to clean the electrical contacts in the carriage, located inside the printer on the carriage slots.
Figure : The electrical contacts in the cartridge slots
Wait 10 minutes to allow the cartridge and carriage electrical contacts to dry.
Reinstall the cartridges.
Close the cartridge access door.
Reconnect the power cord to the back of the printer.
Press the Power button to turn on the printer.
Try to print a page.
If you are still unable to print, repeat these steps to clean and reseat the cartridges. Multiple cleanings might be necessary to restore printing.
Black cartridges only: remove and rest for two hours
NOTE:The procedure below will not fix missing lines or streaked bars printed by the tri-color, photo, or gray photo cartridges, or other color printing problems. Only perform the steps below if the black print cartridge has printed defective patterns, or if you notice non-uniform black text darkness.
In the black print cartridge, this problem may be caused by sediments collecting in the nozzle area. Follow the steps below to solve this problem:
Remove the black print cartridge.
If the carriage has a latch, relatch it and then close the printer - this is important. If the printer is not closed, it cannot adequately protect the remaining tri-color cartridge.
Place the cartridge on a level surface with the nozzles up (label down).
Figure : Cartridge with the nozzles up
Allow the cartridge to sit undisturbed for two hours.
Reinstall the cartridge and print another self test page.
Click the Windows Start button, then click Control Panel.
Double-click the Printer and Faxes folder.
Right-click the icon for your printer and choose Preferences.
Choose the Services tab and click Service this Device. The printer Toolbox opens.
On the Devices Services tab, click Print a Diagnostic Page.
Look for defects on the page.
If the self test page shows no defects for the black cartridge, and if the cartridge was new, align the cartridge. To align the cartridge, follow the steps below:
Load fresh, white paper.
Click the Windows Start button, then click Control Panel.
Double-click the Printer and Faxes folder.
Right-click the icon for your printer and choose Preferences.
Choose the Services tab and click Service this Device. The printer Toolbox opens.
On the Device Services tab, click Align the Printer.
If the cartridge was not new, there is no reason to align the printer.
If the page still shows defects, go to the next step.
Replace the problem cartridge
If a cartridge replacement was not tried previously to solve this problem, replace the problem cartridge now. Click here (c00206040) (in English) to see if the cartridge is covered under warranty.

Paper Jam for HP PSC 1610 All-in-One Printer

Paper Jam for HP PSC 1610 All-in-One Printer:
I had a paper jam and cleared the paper from the printer. Now every time I turn the printer "on" it picks up the top piece of paper from the tray and runs it about ½ to ¾ of the way thru the paper feed, stops, and then displays message "paper jam clear paper and then press OK". When I do that it simply picks up the next piece of paper off the tray and does the message again. If I push the OK button on the printer it will simply finish the ejection and then pick up the next paper from the tray, and do the same thing. I have examined the interior (and exterior) of the printer for paper scraps and any other obvious sign of trouble (dirty drive wheels, missing rollers, broken springs, etc...) and can not see anything unusual. I can not print a test print because of the paper jam message. I am running Windows XP and the printer has been working fine for months (until this recent jam). I did all the steps from the HP fix it site including clean rollers, plug and unplugged, carriage travel OK and more. Don't know what to do now........Any help would be great!!!! Thank you!

Hi my printer psc 1610 hp not picking paper

Hp psc 1210 all in one printer feeding error

I have a model 1210 all in one printer and it will not feed paper. it sounds like something its working, but not gripping the paper. PLEASE ADVISE

Hello @anne0701 , and welcome to the HP Forums!
I can see you're experiencing paper feed issues. I would like to help!
I would recommend 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 also suggest following the steps in this video on PSC feed issues:

HP PSC 1510 All in One Feeding Problem

I own a HP PSC 1510 All in One and have had very few problems with it up until now. The computer that it is mainly plugged into runs on Windows XP. Once the printer is turned on it immediately takes in a sheet of paper however only half way then a message appears on the computer screen saying that there is a paper jam. If you press the "Cancel/Resume" button on the printer the paper feeds all of the way through however it immediately takes in another sheet but again only half way. Because of this you cant print at all.
Hope you can help!!!

User Defined Paper Size, Windows 7, PSC 2110 all in one printer

I am trying to print a 5x7 photo using the user defined paper size of my PSC 2110 All-in-One printer. When I used X
P os, it was easy to do. Since upgrading to Windows 7, I have been using the default drivers that load with that, but it doesn't have the ability to define paper size. Is there a driver available that would let me do this? I've tried to use compatability mode to get the original drivers from the installation disc to work, but it won't do it.

Hi,
The last update was for Vista, 5 years ago:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4063&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=4220...
At this stage, Windows 7 only supplies a very basic and generic print driver for this printer just for print. You may want to keep that way or buy a new printer.
