DeskJet F2480 guard printing alignment page

I installed a new Deskjet F2480 and everything was fine.  Had to replace cartridges soon after.  I installed the HP cartridges.  But now, when you print a document, it STILL prints on an alignment page.  Computer has Win XP Pro, Office 2007.  I've seen a few old messages with the same problem, but the resolution.  Any ideas?

I had already completed a Page SEVERAL times.  I understand a solution: uninstall the basic version (originally installed from the CD at the time of purchase).  Downloaded and installed the version of ALL the FEATURES.  After alignment over a few guest, all right.

  • PSC 1510 guard printing alignment pages, won't allow me to use scanner

    My 1510 keeps printing alignment pages (or gives me an error of paper output).  I do not use the color cartridge and haven't for a long time.

    Now when I try to scan a document it says that something is in control of the scanner (probably the alignment process).   I put the fininsh the alignment process page, but he just keeps trying to print an alignment page.

    How can I disable alignment 'characteristic '?  I'm starting to think that the only purpose of this feature is wasting ink HP.

    Hello

    The alignment process designed to ensure optimal print quality, black ink and color are necessary to complete the alignment process, otherwise it runs aground.

    I'm afraid that the model does not circumvent the alignment process, thus getting a new color cartridge essencial in order to complete the alignment process, otherwise the printer will keep pritnign the sheet at the start of the device.

    You can try to print an alignment sheet and press several times the button cancel during the pritning of the page, I think that it can cancel the process then and allow you to scan, however the same will have to be repeated after the printer is restarted.

    Hi @JimDirt,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see that your new printer HP DeskJet 2130 guard print a "test page" each time you print.  I'd be happy to help you and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.

    I understand how frustrating, it would be for you. It seems that alignment has not completed when you installed the printer at the start. The alignment sheet must be scanned or the process repeats. This is normal and it will continue to realign itself ended successfully.

    This guide illustrates the alignment process:

    Load paper into the paper feeder (make sure that you load into the fresh, unused paper tray).

    Load plain, US letter or A4 paper in tray after installing ink cartridges.

    Hello

    HP has no guarantee that 3rd party supplies will work in our printers. Looking at the Diagnostics pages it seems that you are not printing cyan or yellow. There are steps you can take to try to retrieve not being able to print individual colors. Please see this link:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02045945

    If you cannot print all colors, you run into a problem to scan the alignment page. I think that the question of printing color must be cleared before attempting to align again. How to perform an alignment, please visit this link: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02045945

  • 4632 HP Officejet printer: hp officejet 4632 printer stuck printing alignment page

    Help please.  My printer is stuck trying to print an alignment page.  I can't scan or copy anything to the printer.  I tried unplugging the printer with power, has waited more than a minute, reconnected and it did not help.

    I tried the scan doctor and she also did not help - Alternatively found printer was 'busy', or scan doctor tried to print an alignment first page and is stuck there. If I "jump" impression of the alighment with doctor to scan page, it prints a test page, it finds everything works "ok." "" "." Print alignment page"bypasses to jump the"print alignment page"printing, and yet the screen of the printer still says 'now printing alignment page', is stuck and I can't always copy or scan anything from the printer.

    I would greatly appreciate any suggestions I tried to solve this problem for several weeks.  Thank you.

    I think I've just fixed this problem after 3 weeks.  I actually tried the doctor print because it seemed to be a printing problem.  I just tried the scan doctor, he finds problems, led me through steps and printing and scanning seem to work now.  Phew!  That took much too long to fix, but glad it works again.

  • DeskJet 932 c: 932 c prints alignment page but nothing else

    This printer worked like a champ since Windows 98!  When I recently switched from Windows 7 to Windows 10, he worked again like a champion.

    I replaced the black ink today, and he will just print the alignment page.

    If I try to print a test page, Windows 10 only tells me there is an error and it will not be printed. No error number or anything.

    If I try to print anything else, I get the same results.

    I have no orange lights, just the clear green power is on.

    If I open the lid, it points to the sad face with a top point.

    It is connected via LPT port, which I installed in my computer.

    I have no idea what to do now. Any help would be fantastic.

    Problem solved. I returned the faulty cartridge with a new one. Printer did not work. I returned the perfectly good ink cartridge and my money back. Then I bought another printer. And had leftovers for change.

  • HP Deskjet F4280, replacement cartridges, now constantly print alignment page

    I bought new cartridges HP 60 Black & color. Replace as usual and traversed the alignment as usual. Printer will print an alignment page every time I turn printer on, when a print, a document printer prints page alignment before & after printing document. Will simply print new page alignment at various times when the printer is immediately using the computer.

    I uninstalled the printer, reinstalled the printer, download fresh drivers of HP and I tried uninstalling then reinstalling with fresh fron drivers HP (just in case those who I had the origianlly were corrupted). Through updates of HP F4280.

    Everything I have tried does not problem solve.

    I even tried to not having printer connected to my computer, just to stand alone and as soon as I turned on it printed an alignment page.

    Tried to install on a different computer, but same problem still exists.

    Any ideas on what could be wrong & solutions?

    You forced to do an alignment yet again to see if it is successful?

  • HP DESKJET 1050, CANNOT PRINT COLOR PAGE

    Hello

    After using the cartrage of the color provided wih the printer, I never had the new fixed color cartrage, I used only black cartrage for my work. last week, I set a new color cartrage is the date of their importation, printed in the coverage of July 2013. Even after trying evrything like allignment, cleaning etc, I am unable to print color page prints always in black and white. Earlier maybe I did something to stop the impression that, even if not necessary it used to print in color if the document is in color. Help, please. its urgent for my son's school assignments

    Kind regards

    Hi Mihsra,

    I see that you can not print in color of the Deskjet 1050. From your description, I suspect that the problem may be in the settings of the computer.

    If you have a Windows operating system, review the steps below;

    Check the print settings

    Follow these steps to check the print settings to ensure that they are appropriate for your print job.
  • Why print alignment page every time you start?

    Recently, my printer HP (Photosmart C3180) started printing a page of alignment every time that I turn it on. This seems to be a cynical way for HP to sell more ink, because my printer has no alignment problem. The alignment page wasting my paper, waste a ton of ink I have to pay for and wasting my wait time to perform another task, deal with the sheet of waste and waste time more often when I have to buy ink. I searched through all the instructions and installed Help topics and find nothing that even talking about alignment each time you start.

    Hello

    Most probably the alignment page is printed on every reboot due the alignnment process is not entirely complete.

    Try to complete the alignment process by following the steps below:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01336397

    Alignment must also contain black, yellow, Magenta and Cyan as the example below, any color missing due to the low or empty ink cartridge can cause the alignment to fail
