  • Error Message on my L7590 related to missing or bad ink cartridges

    I opened the ink cartridge door to get the numbers off the back of the cartridges (need a new yellow).  You can't see the numbers so I didn't touch any thing and closed the door.  Now I am getting a message that my cyan and black cartridges "appear to be missing or damaged."  The both had near new ink levels and weren't touched.  I can't clear the message.  I did pull those two and put them back in...same message.  I've also turned it off and back on4 times.  Help!
    Thanks

    Try this:
    1. Remove all ink cartridges and printheads.
    2. Close all access doors then turn off the printer.
    3. Unplug the power cord from the back of the printer and from the wall outlet.
    4. Using a cutip, clean the printheads electrical contacts (avoid the cleaning the nozzles). Do the same thing with the contacts on the  cartridges.
    5. Reconnect the power cord from both ends and turn on the printer.
    6. Re-insert the printheads and then the ink cartridges.
    Let me know if that works.

  • Remove the ink cartridge & reinstall it then press ok - Doesn't Work. Please Help !

    HP Envy 5660 Wireless All-In-One
    My black & color ink ran out and I changed them both. The color ink cartridge is fine but when I changed the black cartridge I get a message telling me to remove it and reinstall the black ink cartridge then press ok. I tried this several times. When it did not work after 4 tries, I decided to try another black cartridge. Again I got this message. I tried with 3 brand new black cartridges with no luck.
    I then decided to turn off the power to the printer and unplug the printer. Wait a few minutes then plug it in again and power up. Like a re-boot.  This did not help. I then tried cleaning the area where the cartridge goes in but this did not help either. I did not bother trying to clean the cartridges (3) themselves as they were all brand new, just out of the box.
    The only way I can use this printer right now was to remove the black cartridge all together and only use the color ink.
    I have only had this computer for 3 months so if anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    Hi @TracieDawn,
    I see that despite your best efforts so far, you can currently only use the printer when you remove the black cartridge and printer with the color ink. I suggest using the following document to troubleshooting the issue, and calling us if the issue persists; HP ENVY 5640, 5660, 7640 and Officejet 5740, 8040 e-All-in-One Printer Series - A 'Cartridges Missin....
    If you are in Canada or US call 800 474 6836, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.
    HP printers generally have a 1 year warranty from their purchase date, you can verify the warranty using the following link if you would like; warranty check. 
    I hope this helps.

  • C5380 - I want to print using ONLY black ink cartridge. Is this possible?

    Hi Folks,
    I now understand that this model, HP C5380 and I'm guessing many others too, are programed to use an amount of colour ink even when selected to print in Black. 
    My question is:  Can I somehow program the printer to 'only print using the black ink cartridge' and not use the colour cartridges at all?
    I have heard that this is possible with some models but need the specifics.
    I am even willing to permanently disable the colour function if needed. The replacement ink catridges are so very expensive, if I'm unable to do this then I'll be looking for another printer and it won't be HP.  Thi is unfortunate because I think they make a good quality product - however they need to be on notice that their customers 'good will' and return business will not be forthcoming when they (and other compaines) continue to use money making strategies like this. 
    Many Thanks in advance for your time, B

  • INSTALLED NEW INK CARTRIDGE and cancelled the alignment PRINT HEAD IS STUCK

    Greeting everyone
    I just put a new color 57 HP ink cartridge  into my all in one 2210 printer & somehow I cancelled the alignment as it seemed not to be doing anything....and now it will not return the printer head and will do nothing.... how will I fix this?
    this is just a printer problem as the printer was working fine before I changed the ink.  My Dell inspiron 580  wi PC is working fine and I have been printing direct from my computer to printer every day until my goof up...... intel core (TM) i5 CPU @3.20 GHz 64 bit  8.00 GB RAM

    Hi - A couple of things to try:
    - Unplug the power from the back of the printer.
    - Open the top cover, and slide the carriage to the center.
    - Remove the cartridge and try reinstalling.  Make sure the ink cartridge snaps in and is firmly held by the carriage.
    - Plug the power cord back into the printer and power it on.
    If that doesn't work, try repeating the steps above, but this time, remove the USB cable, which will completely isolate the printer and narrow down the issue.
    Hope that helps.

  • HP Officejet Pro L7580 - Yellow Ink Cartridge keeps popping out although it's brand new.

    Hello,
    I have had this officejet printer for about 4 years. I have never had a serious problem until now. A few days ago I replaced the yellow ink cartridge (88XL) because the ink indicator showed it as being completely empty. After replacing the cartridge with a brand new cartridge from OfficeMax, the cartridge pops out while I'm trying to print or copy something and the displays says that the yellow cartridge's ink level is not enough and needs to be replaced.
    It seems at first glance that this is a mechanical problem concerning the yellow ink slot; however, I'm not sure. Or I suppose the problem could be related to the cartridge itself. To get around this problem, I've held down the cartridge and stuck a small pencil in the opening where the small latch of the "ink cartridge compartment cover" normally goes in. That way I've been able to print, but it's really a hassle. And honestly I don't think this is the real solution to the problem.
    If anyone knows how to resolve this issue, I'd like to hear from you. Please let me know as soon as possible. Worst comes to worst I will have to go out and buy another printer.

    Try this for a Quick Fix ...........
    After reading other forum comments from people having the same problem with the yellow cartridge popping-out, combined with others who have realised that HP have no interest in compensating anyone for this rediculous example of, at best, 'bad design', or at worst 'blatent planned obsolescence', I have created a 'quick fix' that may add another 1, 2 or more years of life to the HP Officejet Pro L7580 Printer.
    This is not the elegant technical solution I was hoping for.  However, in hindsight, it may prove to be a more reliable solution than replacing the faulty part that is actually causing the problem.  So, here it is the Quick Fix ........
    I found a wooden triangular door stop that I cut to size that fitted exactly in the space between the plastic door and the offending yellow cartridge. To hold it in place, I wrapped the doorstop with 2" cellotape, then I stuck the door stop to the inside of the plastic door with double sided cellotape (double sided stick-on foam would also work well). With the doorstop in the correct place, the plastic door closed perfectly and was snug enough to apply sufficent pressure to the offending yellow cartridge, and hence stopping it from popping out again.  To make sure the plastic door does not 'fly open' with the pressure of the yellow cartridge (when it wants to pop out!), I applied another piece of 2" cellotape around the outside of the door, holding it to the body of the photocopier.
    This exercise only took 10-15 mins to do.  I feel this is a much better option than spending another $300+ on a new All-in-One  system, as well as being a good environmental solution.  If this is DELIBERATE 'planned obsolescence', companies like HP need to be more accountable for, at best, 'sloppy design'.  Any feedback would be appreciated.

  • 6310 ink cartridge

    I have a 6310 bought new in March 2007.  It has worked well until recently.  Without any previous difficulty or warning the display indicated the left ink cartridge required replacing even though ink supply was about half full.  I replaced the cartridge and the display continued to indicate the left cartridge required replacement.  I called HP tech support.  Subsequent to some discussion the tech rep offered the only solution he thought available was to purchase a replacement 6310 from HP for $97.00.  His belief was that the "chip" was no good.  This is very disappointing.  Anyone have any other solution to this problem.  I have found I can print in black only although the scan, copy, and fax functions are inoperative.  Anyone want a tri-color cartridge that apparently I cannot use?

    Must be something in the air -- I just encountered the exact same problem aboiut an hour ago.  I called tech support, they went through a few things with me, told me to get another color cartridge and try that.  The tech promised me that if it still doesn't work, they'll send me a new printer.  I was surprised considering that I think the printer is more than a year old and thus out of warranty.  Now I gotta run out and plunk down money for a color cartridge, which will probably turn out to be a waste of time.
    What bugs me is that when the color  feature isn't working for some reason, the whole printer is disabled and one can't even work in black-and-white. Similarly, if your color cartridge is empty or if you simply remove it, you can't print in B&W.  What's up with that?

  • HP Deskjet 1510 Tri-color Ink Cartridge Error

    I just bought a HP Deskjet 1510 back in August and I loaded the HP original ink cartridges that come with the purchase. For the first 5 print jobs it was working well, but somehow after a while my laptop and the printer itself just kept warning that there's low ink level in the cartridges (especially the tri-color one). I haven't even got to use the tri-color cartridge much as I've been printing in grayscale ever since I've used this printer. 
    I've tried taking the cartridge out and putting it back in again; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I thought it might be a contact issue so I cleaned those parts too but it didn't change anything.
    It's getting extremely frustrating as I'll have to do this for god knows how many times for every single page I print or copy. This happens to the black cartridge too but 90% of the time it's the tri-color cartridge.
    Please help.
    Thanks.

    Hello @ut32w , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I hope you had a great holiday!
    I understand from reading your post that you are running into cartridge errors.  I'd like to help!
    I would first suggest removing the 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 also recommend running through the steps listed in the document below:

  • HP Photosmart C6180 printer. Says the magenta ink cartridge is empty when it is new.

    I own a HP Photosmart C6180 printer.  It sat for several months so I replaced all of the ink cartridges.  It will not print because it says the magenta ink cartridge is empty.  It is brand new and i can see the ink inside of it.  I am not sure what to do.  I don't want to take it to get serviced as I live several hours from any computer or printer repair shop.  Please help!

    Hi pbeck39
    What are the ink levels like on a self test page - are they good? Are you using Win XP x64 by any chance?

  • New Ink Cartridge but can not print out/copy any document.

    I have HP Printer Deskjet 1050. I've just bought 1 x Original HP Ink Cartridge Colour Black No.61 that can be used as well for my HP Deskjet 1050 (because I could't get No.802 Black Cartridge). I have pulled out the empty one and pushed the new one in until I heard snap sound (I've followed as what is in the instruction poster). Before my old Ink was empty, I was able to print either black or colour. Now, after I've got new one pushed in, I couldn't print nothing, even the alignment page doesn't automatically print out after all cartridges are pushed in and cartridge door was closed. My Black Ink warning light is blinking all the time. I can scan to my computer/laptop but can not print it out or make copy from the printer. This printer is not compatible for my laptop with OS Windows 8.1 (64-bit), but I was able to use my printer for printing thru my laptop by using HP AiO Printer Remote. Please help?

  • Defective ink cartridge?

    I have a F380 all-in-one. I've had it a while and everything has been fine, but a few days ago, I tried to print a page and it cut off a rectangular portion of the top left of the page. The rest printed fine. Since then, I can't print anything. Once in a while, like if I turn it on, it just prints out a blank page, and I'm not trying to print. I can't print a test page or do any aligning of the cartridges, nothing happens when I do those from hp solution center. If I try to print a test page by holding cancel and hitting scan/copy, nothing happens if I hit the black button, and when I hit the color button, the on/off button just blinks a few times. I can't scan as it says it's already in use for something else. There is no printer on my taskbar saying I'm trying to print anything either. When on, the on/off button is on, the (!) section has a red light blinking on the black ink cartridge, there's an E on the page portion, and the plain paper type button is on. If I try to check ink levels, it says, "Estimated ink level information is not available for introductory print cartridges", which these are not. I've taken out the cartridges and looked at them and can't see anything obviously wrong. I took them out individually and closed the door. When I took out the color cartridge and closed it, the cartridge was moving around for a good 30 to 60 seconds. Very little happened when I took out the black one and closed it.
    So is the cartridge defective? If so, can I get a refund for it? I suppose from HP? It was one of theirs, and not a refill or anything. I've hardly used this one. Thanks a lot.

    I have two F380 printers that have the same problem and nothing works, I've tried EVERYTHING humanly possible except taking the printer to a technician. I've already wasted money buying new HP printer cartridges and that didn't fix the problem either.  There are lots of people with the same problem and all we want is an answer from HP on how to fix the problem THAT ACTUALLY WORKS.  I don't want to waste any more money, therefore I guess I will have to toss both of these and buy a printer from a different manufacturer that actually works.  Good luck to everyone.

  • 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.

  • How can I print using only the black ink cartridge?

    I have a officejet 4620 that I need to know how to set up to have the option of using the black ink cartridge only. I rarely ever use color ink and I dont want $30 worth of color ink to dwindle away while printing pages that do not need any sort of quality printing. How can I change this setting? I have a Mac and there are hardly any options when trying to print anything. 
    Thanks!

    Hello @downeyke , and welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you are looking into black ink options.  I would love to try and help you, but I do need a little information first. I am linking an HP Support document below that will show you how to find which version of the Mac operating system you are using.  With this information we can provide you with accurate information.
