DeskJet 3845: deskjet 3845 paper not feed

My Deskjet 3845 won't feed paper.  It was working fine and all of a sudden everything just stopped feeding paper.   I tried running the self-test by holding down the power button / stop and opening and closing door four times.   Systematic post, but it won't pull the paper.   I opened the back and checked the paper roll.  It seems - noevidence of any accumulation.  Then he touches, it feels like soft rubber, so I don't think that's the problem.  All the ideas!

You were correct.  My 3845 had a hardware problem.   I hated to throw my 3845 followers, so I removed the top cover.  The problem is obvious - when he tried to print a test page, gray plastic gears at the end of the feed roller just spun.  The feed roller does not turn.

To fix this, I drilled a 1/16"hole in the hub of the wheel in plastic and in the supply roll on a 1/8".  This required a wet strand.  Then, I inserted a piece of steel (a piece of a small nail) in the drilled hole rod, passing through the hub and in the feed roller.  I then epoxyed the stem in place and leave to harden for 24 hours.    Make sure you blow the shavings of metal and the dust of the printer with a lot of compressed air!

The printer now works fine.

At past total: $4 hardened forest, epoxy $5, I have time to time.

Feel free to pass along this correction for someone else who needs it.

  • Photo paper not feeding

    When I try to print a picture on my photosmart printer C310/premium on Windows 7 operating system, the photo paper tray feed will take the paper but does not work.  Get the error message to load paper in the tray.  Sometimes it partially feeds it and then photo paper deposited just inside without feeding through.  Not really a jam, but not working no matter what patch I try. Help?

    Thank you very much for this information! I'm glad to hear this printer is now printing photos, but now you get vertical lines. When you change the print settings, you pass this quality tab to the best? You change every possible impression?

    I wish allows you to print this document from HP here test page to check if you get vertical lines. I will seek forward to hearing from you.

  • 6700 all In One: printer paper not feeding

    I have had this printer for a long time.  It has never failed me, but last week he refuses to print, telling me it is out of paper, when it clearly is paper in there.  I adjust the book again and again and again, it will not be printed.  All of a sudden, he decided to print.  Why would he do that?  I found references in this forum of the items to check, but they have been so long that none of the articles is come.

  • Printer will not feed the paper card stock

    We have an Officejet Pro 8600 who will not feed the paper card stock. It was the printer that I used when I worked and did a great job on standard paper, but it won't take my wife stock card paper craft. We used to have a Deskjet F4400 HP all in one and we were able to print. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    John,

    Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

    Try indicating what type of media you print to the printer - if your media in the printing preferences settings do not understand "card", you should choose something else which is similar: Matt Brochure, card, 'something' that kind of card stock for the printer to the printer waits 'thick' paper looks.

  • DeskJet 3520: Paper Photo collection

    Does anyone know why my printer is not feeding the paper properly.

    If I use a fine photo paper or normal plain paper it picks up fine and the image is printed OK. However, I bought some gloss photo paper in 260gsm and it does not pick up properly. I find myself with a big edge at one end and the other cuts. I cleaned the collection of pebbles, but still no joy. Any ideas?

    @Clive5

    Some places to check / change:

    Although the paper is the specifications for Photo paper (max is 280 g/m), the book itself is perhaps the question:

    • Too wet paper > replace paper
    • Too dry paper > replace paper
    • Paper is not enough good quality (brand is not always a factor) > replace paper
    • Paper is "stuck" > remove paper, fan, place rear paper in the tray
    • The paper is of the wrong type for this printer (paper must be of type "Ink Jet" as opposed to "laser")
    • Selection of the type of media paper is some form of"HP Photo paper" and the brand of paper is not HP

    If you have not done - or if you have recently migrated / switched operating systems, please install the software of full functionality for your printer.

  • My Deskjet 3520 does not print envelopes. None of the proposed solutions work.

    My DEskjet 3520 does not print envelopes.  I tried all the solutions, and none of them work.  My operating system is Windows XP Professional SP 3.  The computer is a Dell inspiron 530.   There is noe error messages.  When the envelope comes out of the printer, it is empty.  When an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper is in the printer, the address information prints on the right edge of the paper in landscape format.

    My conclusion is that there is a serious error in the software.

    If there is any workaround I would be grateful to receive them.

    Charlie Wingo

    I simply "duped" the copier and formatted the envelope to print in the center of an 8 1/2 X 11 inch paper landscape page.  It took a few violins, but I've got envelopes printing.

  • Deskjet F350 all in one printer: deskjet F350 does not print

    The printer will print after replacing more paper in the middle of a print job. Checked for paper jam and it is clear.

    No error message flashing.

    @karlsruhe57, welcome to the forums!

    I read on how your Deskjet F350 will not print once you have replaced most paper during a print job. What comes to mind, is that the printer can think it's even more paper.

    Try to reset the printer and restart the computer and try again to print.

    Reset instructions:

    • Press the power button to turn the product on.
    • With the product, unplug the power cord from the back of the product.
    • Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
    • Wait at least 15 seconds.
    • Plug the power cord into the wall outlet.
    • Reconnect the power cord to the back of the product.
    • If the product does not light by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.

    Hello Floadnar,

    Have you tried with another Usb cable? DC said that "usb not recognized it. You should check also Device Manager for universal serial bus drivers. Finally, you can try to connect both usb cable to check the work of regular printer usb socket or not. you don't need to install the driver. Simply connect the usb cable between the printer and PC. If both USB works with off problem that should not see the unrecognized Usb device message.
