5740: does not print anything

• Estation c510a: replaced C510 printhead to no black printing, now it does not print anything!

  A few weeks ago, my printer started printing black as a very light gray. I replaced all cartridges, removed the print head and tried to clean the contacts on the back. From advice on the HP website here, I bought a new print head. Just installed and reinstalled the fundamentally new cartridges. He gave me that a message about old print cartridges may not have enough to complete the new initialization of the print head. I just rejected because the cartridges are fundamentally new (XL version, no less).

  Now, the printer does not print anything. He's not even trying. Zineb screen shows he gets something to print, but it is just there to always say "now printing...". "without actually doing anything. There is an occasional (perhaps every 10 seconds) inside the printer, the noise that resembles something moves back, but it never attracts any document.

  As far as I know, HP has decided that without cartridges NEW NEVER OPEN, my printer is now a brick with a shiny new print head $85.

  Yes, I tried to copy with the same results.

  Help, please. I really want to spend a different $70 on new cartridges and lose the new game that is already there!

• Printer HP 8600 Ok, but does not print anything

  I have tried everything I can thingk of. My HP8600 (Wi FI) pro works very well, the PC says it's all Ok, no problem, but I cannot print anything (it was working perfectly a few days ago).

  It can scan from the printer to a computer predefined shared directory without any problems, but the PC does not print anything, even not the computer test page and nnthing present in the queue either.

  I ping the printer without problem!

  I have reinstlalled the pilot tiimes much, at no. avail etc...

  problem remains the same, says there is a configuration problem, I'm lost.

  In computers, it says after the installation, but the icon of the image is the kind of an empty rectangle, not the picture of the printer itself.

  Hope you can help. Maybe I'll try to destroy the driver and load it again, it's the last thing I can think.

• DeskJet 5740 does not print

  This printer has worked flawlessly for the past six years. All of a sudden, he just stopped printing. No degradation of quality. Just a day, it was beautiful, and the next day, zip. Loads of paper, it looks like his impression, but there's absolutely nothing on paper when it comes out. Ink tank indicators are not on, as they would be if it wasn't more ink. Indeed, absolutely everything on the device looks and seems normal - except that now it does not print.

  If the printer has been disconnected from power before that the cartridges were parked correctly, they could have clogged print heads.  Try to gently absorb printheads on a damp cloth.  two strong ink black to black, the color should be strong tasks of cyan, magenta and yellow.  If there are only small tasks then try up to three cycles of cleaning the box tool.

• OfficeJet 6600: HP Officejet prints 6600 pages of test, but USB connected or wireless - does not print anything

  Hello
  For some reason any my printer has ceased to be able to print anything at all, since last night at 7-8 so far, I've been able to print perfectly well.

  It is connected wireless (and on the home network and the IP address), but whether or not it is wireless (USB) - nothing will be printed at all.

  Have tried everything imaginable... uninstalled and reinstalled all HP 3 or 4 times now, various attempted fixes via the online help, nothing works. Have unplugged router printer 30 s, unplugged 30s, you name it.

  It allows to print in-house, however, no problem. Print a test - perfectly fine page, print a network test page - perfectly well. Clear print heads... everything comes out clear.

  Spotted an error prompt "spooler subsystem app not working not"... so found this page online (https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/460f297a-dd66-4476-a176-542e1519ca3e/fixed... and thought it was the miracle solution - nope, still doesn't.)

  Followed the steps detailed here: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Inkjet-Printing/HP-6600-won-t-print-wirelessly/td-p/4649292 - the link to the HP Print & Scan Dominican Republic by the way, is a dead link now... but I have tracked down the appropriate page and run the software. After following it exactly as I had to... I get this result:

  "There is a problem with your software which can not be repaired by this tool. Remove the software by clicking 'uninstall '. Reinstall the software with the product CD or by downloading the latest features full software from HP Customer Care. "- so in other words... I am told to do exactly what I've already done 3 or 4 times.

  It's driving me crazy... and do not understand why it will not print.

  I hope someone here can help... because it's completely maddening.

  Hello
  By coincidence, my grandson has me bought a new computer earlier in the month. and it arrived yesterday afternoon, a Lenovo all-in-One ThinkCentre w/Windows 7 - and after it he installed there, the printer printed fine from the computer.

  But, just in case it is needed, and because the advice was here, I thought I'd try the options.

  Unfortunately, I can't do a level 3 uninstall with the two methods provided. Method never showed a "util" folder or 'utility', both had a "utils" folder, and no method showed a record of "ccc". Also, by downloading the software, then go into the temporary folder through the search from the Start Menu, 3 sets of disc records came - and such that mentioned, none had the util/utility folder (all "utils" still had once) - and yet, none of them had a folder 'ccc '.

  My grandson theory was that something is likely messed up in the registry, and he doesn't dare touch it without knowing what it does - than a reformat or something registry editting and knowing exactly what they're doig - would be the best choice, but rather of your time and... almost useless with the new computer capable of printing. A friend IT very well educated friends, also backed up his theory...

  So, I have to wonder... don't you think it's worth, the Dungeon of combat with the old Gateway/Vista PC, or simply move to the new Lenovo/Windows 7 and cause less stress for us all? Haha!

  Thank you for trying to help but... it's too bad the computer unfortunately does not cooperate.

• Dell V305 printer does not print anything and it used to work properly. Still scans, etc., everything will not print.

  I have a printer Dell V305 that worked very well, but I'm more able to print anything from my laptop. Scanning, etc. still works but not the printing part. I have Windows 7 64 bit. He has a solid orange light on.

  Most often when a device does not work, it is because the driver is damaged.  Re-install a new copy should help

• My HP Deskjet 5440 printer does not print anything, not even a test page. Done all the diagnostic tests.

  Even I did uninstall and reinstall with the disc that came with the PC. The last clue I found was in the HP diagnostic utility that said there was a "breakdown of pen" correction which had to be fixed before printing could continue. But he had no information about the way to approach this. The "Device status" box was red checked. When I try to print anything, it seems that receives the message from the computer to the printer, but then nothing happens and I get an error message and the printer goes offline by itself. What should I try?

  Hello

  What you can check is pulling the cartridges, clean the contacts on the cartridges and the unit (without of course) and check the dates on the cartridges if there not expired. Also try printing a testpage like this: press and hold the Power button, press once on the button back and letting the two buttons.

• OfficeJet 5740: Officejet 5740 does not print from pc

  I just bought an officejet 5740 and I can print from Notepad, but nothing else on my computer. Not even the test page. I tried the word excel adobe via ethernet and cable usb on windows 10 64-bit and ubuntu 14,04 32 bit on different pc, modified drivers, update printer, reset, installing unistalling all but nothing. I can use it as a scanner, fax and photocopy, but I can't get it to work as a printer from any pc! Thank you in advance!

  Finally I found the solution to the problem... I have to give administrator rights on external programs such as microsoft office, Acrobat etc... Properties, Compatibility tab, you must select run this program as an administrator. After that, close the program and reopen the file that you want to print, and that's all. This is the solution for sure for windows 10.

  I have somehow to give administrative rights automatically for applications... My user is the administrator, but who knows what the problem is. Furthermore, windows 7 works very well with the printer.

  Thank you for your time! If you have a solution to give administrative rights to external applications, please do not hesitate to answer.
