Cannot install ink cartridge in Photosmart 7660

I'm having trouble installing a new ink cartridge in the HP Photosmart 7660.  To be precise, I don't know how to get the cartridge under the little metal bar.

Can someone help me with this?

Thank you very much.

Hi maddogminnie,

I see that you can not install the cartridges and you have a metal bar that prevents you. You must turn on the printer and the metal bar should move down when you lift the front cover of the printer.

The basic installation Guide, page 12 shows how this. Here's what you can do.

To install or replace the ink cartridges:
1. If the printer is turned off, press the button control panel of the printer market.
2. lift the printer cover.
3. press the print cartridge latch and pull it forward. The print cartridge latch opens automatically.
4. If you are replacing an ink cartridge, slide the old print cartridge and the store, recycle or throw away.

Hope this helped... !!

  • HP Deskjet 3050: Problems installing ink cartridges

    I have a HP Deskjet 3050 all-in-in-one J610 series. I purchased & installed a black cartridge 61 and see the message on my printer: "authentic black HP print cartridge installed - ok. However, when I try to click on the button next to 'ok' nothing happens. I try by clicking New, or the one above (as in, maybe I clicked on the wrong button), and I turned my printer and turn it back on. Nothing changes. I'm unable to complete installation of ink cartridges and print anything.

    Can someone tell me what is the problem?

    Hi @TwoCharacters

    It's almost that the Ok button is not responding, or only works intermittently. You took the message of cartridge which means it must have admitted you pressed OK. What happens if you just keep trying to press OK, maybe try a little more pressure when you press it, or hold down the key longer than you should have to. Looks like it may be a hardware problem, you may consider giving us a call.

  • Black ink cartridge HP Photosmart C309 to print not

    All of a sudden my printer does not print any black.  I have cleaned the print head (by using tools of the printer), came out of the cartridge and shook to see if he has really ink in it (printer says that it is complete), and it spend it.  The printer has been used regularly - it's not dry.  I tried to print the "status report" and the only thing that prints is the ink supply photos.  The thick black cartridge shows nothing, as if the cartridge is empty.  Can anyone help?

    Hi all

    my HP Photosmart Premium C309a was partially by printing in black and white only, when black has failed. I thought that the startup ink level may have been wrong on the front panel, so I bought a new black ink cartridge. Same problem and so I found this forum. I did a clean cartridge and the black began to work again. It is certainly a matter of keep an eye, and not one I am happy to know. My printer is only 1 month.

  • Help! Problem with ink cartridge compatibility Photosmart C4383 in my current position

    Need your help! I bought my printer in the Middle East almost 2 years already Photosmart C4383 with ink cartridges 140 (black) & 141 (tricolor).  Since then, I have in my country now, resides in the Philippines and I always use the printer.  This week, I already have run out of ink Supply and decided to buy a.  Since then, I bought the printer in another country, I decided to check the site to ensure the compatibility of ink cartridges.  The results stated that the Photosmart C4383 belongs to the Photosmart C4380 series and it also says here that HP74 (black) & HP75 (HABs) are the compatible cartridges for the printer in my area.  Since then, I always have the tricolor ink cartridge available 141, I decided to buy only the HP74 (black) ink cartridge.  But when I place the HP74 (black) ink cartridge for my printer, I was surprised to see in the display as the ink cartridge, I bought is not compatible with the printer. I was so disappointed because if I can't use the product then I lose money and and check again and again in the sights of compatibility of ink in my area said but still the same thing as HP74 (black) is the compatible ink cartridge and also saw a result stating to "reset the printer to work in my current position."  Need your help to enlighten me and give me the right solutions to these problems and the steps how to make good sense.   I need to use my printer so badly. Thank you.

    You will need to Contact HP and require a reset of regionalization.  It will take you have access to your computer and printer so that on the phone with HP agent.  If the C4383 is a model only sold in some regions it is not possible to have the region reset.

  • Change ink cartridges CN216A Photosmart Plus B210

    Ink cartridges carriage does not come to the center when I lift the cover if I put in new cartridges.

    However, the fact printer print and copy, for transport of cartridge works for printing.  Help!

    Hello Shorty944and welcome to the Forums of HP!

    I see that you have issues with your transport movement, but only when changing cartridges. I would like to help with that today.

    I suggest you perform a power reset. Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

    "I suggest also running through the steps described in this document on 'traffic Jam' or ' 0X610000F6" Message appears on the control panel, just in case there is a problem with the transport catch or delaying its movement.

    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Cannot remove ink cartridges

    Hello

    I have a photosmart c4480 all-in-one inkjet and I try to delete the cartredges. The printer is on, I opened the door of the cartridge, but transport is on the far left and is not right so I can access it! Please note the printer works fine, apart from that, there is no jam.

    This link has all the necessary steps to change a cartridge, but I'm stuck. Help, please!

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01370857

    Thank you

    Looks like you have a little trouble to remove the cartridges. Well let's start by making the two most basic resets.

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=31TbWMrTaFk

    If you can print fine, I suggest sending to the printer a print job or to print a page of test and as transport reaches the middle of the page remove power cord at the back. This should freeze the transport in the open air and allow you to replace the ink.

    I would like to know how it goes!
