Printing error after replacement of ink cartridges

I just replaced the black and the color ink cartridges in my Deskjet F4800. I have done this successfully many times before. But this time, the tear-drop shaped light under the color ink level guage on the panel is blinking continuously, and the "E" (for error) sign on the fron panel is on. The printer refuses to print anything. I have tried removing and re-inserting the cartridges a couple of times, and resetting the printer, but to no avail. The HP Solution Centre software just reports an error situation and advises to remove and re-insert the cartridges, which I've done a number of times now without being able to solve th eproblem.

Hey @subratabn ,
Thank you for taking the time out of your day to ask that question on the HP Forums today!
I understand you are in an error state with your printer. You are being told to reinstall and remove the cartridges to fix the issue.
I have looked all over the website for the Deskjet F4800. I can not find it,  are you sure that this is the model that you are using? If so please attach a picture and some information about it.
Look forward to hearing back from you!

    Hello.

  • My hp 7160 wants to print in black only after replacing the yellow cartridge. Any suggestions?

    My hp 7160 wants to print in black only after replacing the yellow cartridge. Ink level shows full amount. Test page prints fine.
    I have tried different programs to color print in, all return the same error message.

    Hi @obxgirl,
    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.
    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,

  • OfficeJet 4622 can't print after i changed ink cartridges

    I can't print anything since i replaced the ink cartridges. I have cleaned the pin heads and alighned them. I have done the
    in level test with no issues. I have downloaded all the new drivers i needed and any updates. The print report doesnt print anything except the colors down at the bottom of the page. Any ideas at all?? These are HP cartridges also.

    As this is an OJ 4622, regardless if it's out of warranty I'd advise calling HP Phone Support as you may require a replacement. Can you please let us know how you get on? Thanks, Ciara

  • Concerning Epson Printer 4880: after changing the Ink from Photo Black to Matte Black I'm not getting the Epson Software in Photoshop and Lightroom. I can not select the paper medium, I don't see my profiles. What is wrong?

    Concerning Epson Printer 4880: after changing the Ink from Photo Black to Matte Black I'm not getting the Epson Software in Photoshop and Lightroom. I can not select the paper medium, I don't see my profiles. What is wrong?

    That is priceless!!!  Thanks!  I sure needed a good laugh after spending/wasting hours & days trying to either get my c6280 to give up on its Ink System Failure fixation, or find a decent replacement.  Unfortunately I need the Smart Web Printing feature that I guess only HP has, or I'd try a different brand. And now even HP has very few models with that available.
     My error msg is a little different from those previously stated, but close:  0xc18a0201.  Even tho there were frustrations with my c6280, I did like several of its unique features which are hard to find now under $100.  I hate how HP (& I suppose other brands also) are CONSTANTLY changing models & then of course ink cartridges.
    Oh heavens, I've had the c6280 a whopping 2 1/2 years!   I'm sure they want us poor slobs to have to buy a new one every year & a day!  To say nothing of the exorbitant prices for ink.  And now if this one is really dead in the water, I have SIX unused #02 ink cartridges which I cannot return---I got them in a combo pack, & for some reason have wound up with THREE lite pink & THREE lite blue cartridges, while having to buy extras of the other colors, that ran out before the others!!!   Yeah, & what's with that not being able to print in BLACK if a color runs out????
    Anyway I really loved your essay!   It's a classic!  And says it all!  I hate that we have to be 'slaves' to the electronic 'wonders'!!!

  • Replace magenta ink cartridge

    Although I have replaced ALL ink cartridges in my Business Inkjet 2200, I still get the "Replace Magenta Ink Cartridge" message, and the printer will not print.
    I have disconnected the power, reinstalled the drivers, removed and replaced all cartridges dozens of times, but nothing will help.
    Hope someone out there can.

    This is an old post, but I just had the same problem on my printer and wanted to respond in case someone else with the same problem finds this post.
    The resest solved the problem for me. 
    To reset this printer, make sure the printer is on.  Unplug the printer without turning the printer off. 
    Wait  60 seconds.
    Hold down the # and 6 button while plugging the printer back in.  Keep holding the # and 6 down while the printer turns on.  After a bit, on mine there was a picture of the power symbol that appeared on the printer display. 
    When the power symbol appears on the printer display, take your fingers off the # and 6 button. 
    Push the power button to turn the printer off.  Push the power button again to turn the printer back on.  The printer will take some time to go through some preparation.  When the preparation is complete, the printer will recognize that the cartridges are full. 
    My printer is the C7280.  I'll check on the reset instructions for the C7180 and C6180 also mentioned in this post and update this thread with instructions for those printers as soon as I find those reset instructions.  I'm not sure what the #3 does - that's close, but different than what what worked for me.
    If these steps worked for you, please mark this post as solved.

  • I keep getting a "Print Cartridge Error" even after replacing both ink carts in my psc2410

    I keep getting a "Print Cartridge Error" on my psc 2410. I replaced both ink cartiridges and cannot clear the error. Any ideas?

    After playing with it, I now get only a 'check color cartirdge' message. I've pulled it out, checked the contacts and put it back in several times to no avail...

  • Office Jet 6500 E710n-z won't print black even just replace the ink cartridge with a new one.

    It is the 3rd time to have problem on printing "black" even the ink is not empty (but the level is low, like a quarter left).  In the previous cases, I replaced the cartridge and the problem solved.  
    The 2nd time was last week.  After I changed the cartridge, it worked (for only 1 week) and the problem is back.  Since the ink is full this time and it worked well when I just changed it, I suspect this is the problem of my printer instead of the cartridge.
    I did clean printhead and align printhead but the problem persist.  Please advice the solution.  Thanks!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hopefully the printhead does not need replacing. I would look at this document on defective output for your printer model.  I know that some of the steps in here you have mentioned already performing. Please just read over/skip those and try the ones you have not yet performed.  It shows different ways to clean the printhead; if you just did the cleaning from the toolbox I would defiantly do the manual one. It also has a walk through to make sure that the products firmware is up to date.  Here is that link:  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02455482&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...

  • Replace Empty Ink Cartridge message flashes after the cartridge has been replaced

    Printer is C61P50 All in One.
    Has been printing black only, but this morning it said it could not continue unless the empty Magenta cartridge was replaced.   I bought a new one, installed it, and still get the same message. 
    Occasionally I get another about the light blue cartridge ink being expired.   That I can clear by hitting OK, but then I am back to being hung up on the supposedly empty magenta which I have already replaced with a brand new one.
