2540 all-in-one: HP 2540 in ink empty

Hello, can anyone advise please.

Printers and inks just aged a year.

Is it a coincidence that my inks are also vacuums on the exact anniversary of purchase?

Or is this speculation of HP, Epson has made me for years.

Hi @trustissues,

Thank you for showing your interest in the HP Forums! I see that you wonder why cartridges are now show empty after the printer for a year. I can help you.

Are they still the original cartridges in the printer?

Ink levels and indicators are estimates: check ink or Toner levels.

I have provided the Web site of the cartridge page yields available for this model: Page Yield.

I would like to know if these measures worked for you.  If they did, it's great!  Give us some reinforcements by clicking on the solution and laurels, buttons that help and others see that we have the answers! Good luck!

  • HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 1515: stop the test page printed for all-in-one printer, HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 1515

    How can I stop my HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 1515 all-in-One printer to print a test page everytime I STARTED printing?

    Hello JoshSimon ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums.

    I see that you have a problem with the printer printing before you print a test page.

    If you turn off the printer at the end of the day, please do not.  Turn the printer on/off will result in printing a test page.  If you are concerned about the printer lost power, and that's why you stop, the unit actually built in sleep/stand mode that will kick in when you are not using the printer.

    Once a print job is sent to the printer it then wake up and do the task at hand.

    In addition, make sure you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a bar/power strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer for example, but it is intended for HP products in general. Please click the link which explains the problems when connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power.

    If troubleshooting doesn't help not solve your problem, then I would say call the HP Technical Support to see all the other possibilities for you. If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, please click here: click here.

    At first, it was just a problem with do not print from the computer.  Error messages had to do with the failure of the print head or do not find print head, etc..  After going through several different controls online, download the scans, etc., it does not at all, print showing an error message "ink system failure".  I tried to remove and reinsert the 4 printheads (black 932, 933 colors) and turning market and check the caps and unplug the power.  Since this is a wireless network, I can't unplug the USB.  It was the OK signal.  Now, with this error message, I don't see the home screen printer controls.  It just says: put it on and then contact HP.  Help, please.  Very frustrated (it didn't happen all at once - a first he wouldn't print from the computer sometimes, other times.)

    Thank you!

    Hi @Cardinal52,

    I'm not sure what would cause these functions to be unavailable, but I'd be happy to help you regain the ability to access ink levels, alignment and the cleaning process.

    We will perform a hard reset. To do this, leave the printer and unplug the power cable for 1 minute. While it is unplugged, press and hold the power button on the printer for 10-15 seconds to release built his power, then after the minute, plug the printer in.

    It would be better to also restart the computer to help restore communication between the devices.

    If the problem persists, please run printing HP and doctor Scan. Printing HP and doctor Scan is a free utility (tool) that allows to quickly solve common printing, scanning and connectivity problems, including but not limited to:

  • All-in-one HP Deskjet 2542: 2542 all-in-one - large Print - low ink

    Hello

    So I have a large print job (25 pages all black color) and the estimator of ink indicates 1/4 of the remaining black ink and ink color 1/3 remaining.

    I want to AVOID pages that are stained, streaked or faded.

    Should I go get a black cartridge HP-61 and install it for this work (, I anticipate printer will be want to print a test page and others and confused when I put the full cartridge 1/4 in),

    or,

    should I just give it a try.

    Kind regards

    RunningWolf

    Hi @RunningWolf,

    I see that you would like to know if you have enough ink to print a 25 page work. I would like to help you today.

    I suggest to print 5 pages at a time, the application when you go to print you can select pages to print at the same time. Then make the next set of 5 and so on. In this way, you don't end up with a bad impression. You can try the full 25-page document and if the pages are faded, then you can always go back and simply print these specific pages.

    Hope that helps. If you appreciate my efforts, please click on the "Thumbs up" button below. Thank you.

  • 1050 all-in-One printer - J410: unused ink for awhile

    Hello everyone,
    I use 22xl ink cartridges.
    I have not used it for a few months.
    Now, it does not print at all, although both cartridges indicate almost full (it looks like the dried ink or almost).
    I get no error when printing.

    So is it possible that I can restore State cartridge?

    Thank you
    Salah

    Hi salah.

    Do not use the cartridges several months likely to cause print quality problems and think about cloggs due the ink dries.

    You can try to perform a cleaning Cycle and check if this may help:

    1. Open the software HP Deskjet 1050 from your PC.
    2. Click the estimated ink levels.
    3. Open the Services tab.
    4. Click clean print head and follow the instructions on the screen, do not forget to complete the level 2 as well and see if that can help you.
      Note: If there is no partial improvement after a cycle it worth the extra cycle and check if that can help you.

    HP 22XL mentiioning, is the number of correct cartridge that you reference? the Deskjet 1050 printer uses the HP 122 / 122XL cartridges, not 22 like you mentioned.

    If you have the correct cartridges and you see no improvement, try to replace with new ink cartridges we as no use for such a long period can get dried ink.

    Kind regards

  • 3520 Deskject HP all-in-one: newly replaced black ink cartridge does not print

    My ink level is full.  I just replaced my black cartridge (with genuine HP cartridges). No black is printing.  I tried all the troubleshooting tips including the alignment of the printer, clean the print head. Remove and reinsert the cartridges.  I replaced the cartridge several times during the past year is nothing new.  Can't understand why black will not only be printed.

    This is your last hope.

    Watch the videos and if you can remove the printhead and clean, it might work.

    Hello

    Is it possible to use HP PSC 1315 scanner without ink cartridges? A light ink control is brinking and it won't scan.

    Sorry, you will not be able to scan without changing the cartridge.

    The printer is not working with the lights flashing and an error state.

    So, you will need to have LITTLE ink cartridges to scan.

  • HP C7280 all-in-one pump motor stalled, ink system failure

    My HP C7280 has several failures: pump motor stalled, then ink system with error message failure: 0xc05d0082 and then sometimes for fun jam of transport, where there is no paper jam.  I tried to remove theink and again hard placiing; hard reboot; PWR. off for 60 seconds and so on.  Help!

    Hi jjennylake,

    Engine stall pump and ink system failure are two serious error codes.  I'm linking a document troubleshooting for ink system failure.  Click here  The only step that there is to reset the printer which I think you have already done.  You might take a look at the link and see if you did the reset the same way.  If this isn't the case, I recommend to try again following the steps in the link.  It is sometimes useful to remove the ink before disconnecting the power supply and then re-seats after ink printer powers back up.  Let me know how it goes.

    Good luck!

  • HP Deskjet 3520 all-in-one: I installed the HP utility to scan, but the 'Edit analysis jobs' button is grayed

    I installed the HP utility to scan from my HP Deskjet 3520 to my Mac Book pro, but the "edit scan tasks" button is grayed out. I can only scan one page at a time, but one I want to scan multiple pages

    Thanks for the reply back @cjbd,

    You are able to open the HP scanning software when you perform a search from the Mac?

    You try to scan several pages from the printer to the Mac or from the HP scanning software?

    You should be able to open the HP scanning software and edit everything from there.

    Normally, you can select PDF to scan in a single file multiple documents if that's what you try to do.

    Because this model only has a dish, you must be notified to scan another page.

    Here is a document for digitization of the control panel of the printer: HP Deskjet 3520 e - all - in - one and HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 3520 e-all-in-One Printer Series - how to perform a scan: from the control panel.

    If the HP scanning software does not work, you will need to uninstall and reinstall the software again.

    I handed the document to uninstall: Printers HP - uninstalling the software of the printer (Mac).

    Here is the link to the drivers: HP-inkjet ink-SW-OSX - Mavericks_v12.34.40.dmg
