Printer not accessable after new cartridges

I'm trying to help a friend. She is printing from iMac laptop via a G4 iMac. She had a large print job and the printer ran out of ink. She replaced cartridges and still can't print. I'm new to Macs myself and haven't had this problem. She is depending on me to help. My experience tells me that there could be a print spooler area that needs to be cleared out, but she can't get get a dialog that shows print jobs. I don't have a clue where to start (my Unix experience of this was too long ago to remember details).
If I were to remove the printer setup from the laptop and re-define it, would that help, or not make a difference?
I'd appreciate any help on this problem (and I admit it may not be a spooler issue).

Hi and welcome to discussions
Open System Preferences > Print and Fax
You should see a button "Print Queue" click on it and a pane should open which will give you access to the spooler.
I use an Epson Stylus 740 and the above gives me an option to Resume Job under "Jobs" in the Menu bar

  • HP printer 5510 not printing black ink after new cartridges installed

    having an issue with the black ink not printing at all..Brand new HP cartridges.  cleaned screen with hot water  vent is open

    Hi 6043kmb,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are running into some print quality issues on your HP Photosmart 5510, you are unable to print in black ink after replacing the cartridge.
    I would like you to continue here: Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages, I understand you may have done some of these steps already but I need you to complete all steps in order to resolve the missing black issue you are experiencing.
    Please note: There are three printhead cleaning stages. Complete all three stages if necessary. If the printhead is badly clogged, it might require another cleaning cycle. If so, wait 30 minutes after the last (third) cleaning stage to start the first stage of the cleaning process over again.
    If you are still unable to print in black ink, I suspect the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge. Please let me know which Country/Region you are in as well as the product Warranty status: HP Warranty Checker
    I hope to hear from you soon.
    Thanks,

  • Printer won't recognize new cartridge

    My printer (All-in-one, 1200 series) won't recognize a new cartridge. 
    When the present one ran out of ink, I purchased a brand new Hp cartridge.  When I installed it, it says E (error) and won't do anything.  Thinking there was something wrong with this crtridge, I purchased another one....same thing.
    I put in the empty cartridge, and it prints, but nothing comes out as it is empty.
    Today, I called HP tech support, and they told me my printer was old and that I need to buy a new one!!!!!
    Some help!
    I didn't have any refill black ink, but I do have colored.  I put blue ink in the empty black cartridge, and it is printing again beautifully.
    Can anyone tell me why the printer won't print with the brand new cartridges????

    Hey Foldy,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    For the printer not recognizing the new ink cartridge that is installed, I have included two documents for you to follow. The first one is 'Check Print Cartridge Light Blinking'. Some of the steps you have already completed, please do the steps that you have not done already.
    The second document is 'The Print Cartridge Detected is the Wrong Type'. Again some of the steps you will have already completed, please complete the steps that you haven't.
    If you are still having the same issue after this, please let me know if the error has changed, and what lights are blinking on the printer.
    Looking forward to your reply.

  • HT3917 My apple wireless keyboard is not working after new batteries installed

    My apple wireless keyboard is not working after new batteries installed.

    Do you get a steady green light to say there is a connection.    If not, are the batteries the right way round.   Do you have a monitor to tell the batteries strength. Is there a reading.   Are the batteries good quality ones, Duracell, Energiser or Apple rechargeables.

    Hi,
    Based on my understanding, your issue is you cannot create folder in Windows 7, right?
    Did you fix it?
    This issue might be caused by corrupted system file.
    If I am right and you haven't resolve your issue, we could try the following method:

  • HT1338 Final Cut Pro will not update after new os and compressor will not run until the update is done. System shows no updates available

    Final Cut Pro will not update after new os and compressor will not run until the update is done. System shows no updates available

    Sorry for being unclear.
    When I am using the update in the App Store App, there will be a list of various applications that have updates to be installed (Final Cut Pro will be in this list).  I will already be logged in with the Apple ID I use for everything (my dev account).  I will be able to update all of the other various applications needing updating except for my Final Cut Pro.  When I click the update button next to the FCP update, it will give me an error saying  "This download is not available for this apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled"
    I have not had any applications refunded or cancelled and this has only happened since my update to Yosemite.  FCP was working fine until the upgrade.  Is there anything that can be done to fix this?

  • Printer MX410 will not print but a few copies after new cartridge is installed.

    Somewhere I read that there is a solution to reset the printer.  However, I don't remember what or where it is.  My printer is almost a year old, is not connected to a computer but used just for copies. Therefore network and computer problems are not a factor.  Error message comes up after printing 9-10 copies.  A new cartridge does not solve the problem, nor does resetting.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Louisegberg,
    Please try turning the printer off, and unplugging it, for at least ten minutes.  If the error returns, please let us know which error code you are running into, and we'll be happy to further assist!

  • Re: Not printing black ink after new ink cartridge installed (HP Officejet Pro (edited)

    Well 1 to 2 years later I have the exact same problem described by the posters with my OfficeJet 4020.  My black printing started to deteriorate as the cartridge went empty, put in the same HP cartridges I have been buying at Costco since I bought the printer there 2 years ago, first new black cartridge printed poorly then just started to come out blank as described above.  Put in second new cartridge  Also ran all the cleaning and alignment tests and functions. no improvement and no malfunction found. While doing this I used up the three color cartridges which printed okay, it was just the black. Even went out and bought a third new cartridge from Staples to make sure the Costco ones weren't just bad.  This HP replaced a Canon that lasted for ages and it's a problem already.  
    Did anyone ever find a solution to the HP black cartridge blank printing problem? 

    What is the model of your printer - there is not an Officejet 4020 that I can find.  Is your model an Officejet 4620?  If so I suggest you call HP support regardless of warranty as described in the post here.  If you are in the US call 1-800-HPINVENt, elsewhere see the contact information here.

  • Help! My printer won't accept new cartridge

    I bought a Photosmart C6283 All-in-one when I lived in the Middle East about 2 years back.  I've now moved to UK and need to get new ink cartridges for it.  On the HP UK site I got the HP 363 cartridge as recommended for my printer. But on loading it the printer says my printer is configured for HP cartridge 177 only.  That was the old cartridge that i used before but I can't get HP177 in the UK.  Plus I bought two HP363 cartridges which seem a waste now. Is there some way I can use both HP177 cartridges which I already have and new HP363 cartridges for the one's that are empty.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    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.  It is not possible to mix cartridges from different regions.

  • EPrint does not work after new wifi router on Verizon DSL

    I have been using ePrint on my iPod, iPad, and iPhone for a few months without a problem, but recently had to switch to a new wifi router on my Verizon DSL, as my wifi kept turning off and Verizon's solution was an updated wifi router. Since the switch, I cannot ePrint from my mobile devices. I can, after reconfiguration, print from my laptops. The ePrint app still finds the Deskjet 3050a, says "sending to printer", but will not print. The ePrint is turned on. I tried to delete the app and reinstall in hopes that I can start fresh, but it still does not work. I tried to add a new printer, with the email supplied on the ePrint screen on the printer, but nothing.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Honor Student
    Is your printer connected to the new router as it sounds like it is still looking for the old one ?  Maybe  just disconnect it and reconnect it again to your new router and then the ePrint APP should pick it up.
    I work for HP.
    Thanks

  • I'm using Windows Firewall and even turning it off does not change the situation and I can not access any new emails.

    I was using TB on my XP machines and they went down so I was forced to move to a Vista based laptop. It eventually crashed and so I converted my computer from Vista to win 7, Home premium. In both iterations, I have been able to set up TB and transfer all the data & emails that was in them at the time ( from the bood drive that was in the xp machine). but since that time I have not been able to access anything new after that date. It will neither send nor receive emails from both gmail and cox.net accounts that I have. I've attached the settings below. I tried changing some things on [email protected], so that info is obviously wrong.
    I've tried deleting TB but apparently have not been able to remove all the data because when I reload it, it just comes back immediately the way it was.
    Any help would be appreciated. I really like how TB works and would love to be able to use it again.

  • HP OfficeJet 6310 All-In-One printer won't print in color with new cartridge

    HP OfficeJet 6310 All-In-One printer  on a iMAC  OSX version 10.9.5 system
    Hello,
    As I don't print in color much but had need to I discovered my printer not printing in color.  I trouble shooted and even replaced with an new HP95 new from Office Depot ( I never buy refilled).  The printer still won't print color but it advances the paper as if it was printing - just no ink on paper.  I have cleaned thoroughly the ink jet heads, cartridge area, and run all the alignment and printer utilities.    The test page print does not show color either.   I have no error messages.  Don't know what else to do.
    thanks

    Hi there @dhengr!
    Thanks for contacting the HP Forums!
    I can see your having a print quality issue with your HP OfficeJet 6310.  I should be able to provide documentation that will help locate a resolution.  You mentioned you have already tried another  HP95 tri-color cartridge with no resolution.  I also noticed you said that the quality report from the printer also has no color ink.  
    If a stand alone test report is performed from the front of the printer such a printhead cleaning or print quality report and there is no color on the page then you are likely looking at a hardware issue within the printer.  I have provided a document regarding Missing, Faded, or Dull Colors on the HP Officejet 6310 All-in-One Printer.  If you follow the document from start to finish and still have the same issue then I would recommend contacting our HP tech support via phone.  They deal with hardware warranty and replacement options.
    Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region. http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-phone-assist.html
