hp deskjet 1000 printer: hp deskjet 1000 problems

hp deskjet 1000 printer is about 5 years old and has been under the back seat of my truck. I printed about 25 pages when it was new and not the have not used since then. out of the printer and now I have a dell inspiron laptop computer m531r. connected the printer hp with a usb cord and downloaded the latest update from hp. When selecting "print test page", the printer works perfectly as if it is printing, but paper comes out of the Virgin. I have cleaned the ink cartridges with paper towels soaked in alcohol, to run each test and head cleanning hp offered on the troubleshooting section. ink level indicators show the ink to about 80% full. and I updated all the parameters. I rebooted the printer and the computer. I checked and any document, when selected for printing, the printer thinks it is printing. He's even going the correct speed with spacing appropriate, etc. just comes out blank. There is nowhere any dried ink on the print cartridge heads they are clean!   the printer receives data and think it's printing. Therefore, the system does not give messages of any problem. I am concidering buying new cartridges of hp61, but it is a risk not knowing not if the problem is in the cartridge.   TS

@tomcat056,

You are right that there is a risk to replace the ink cartridges. In all likelihood, the cartridges are dried up and the sensor is defective. New cartridges may not solve all your problems of printer. Honestly, printers are not designed to roll the shotgun in your truck. Personally, I would take the money spend you on the new cartridges and buy a new printer.

  • HP 6600 printer: I have a problem with printer Hp 6600

    Even if I do not print colors, my motto keep depleting the color cartridges and will not work until all color cartridges are installed. What can I do if I want to use only the black cartridge?, it was so boring.

    Hi @Stork11,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand your frustration. However, this printer uses same color inks when printing in black only. If run out you of color and kept black printing only, you provoquerez problems with the print head. FYI, here's the guide to your printer , see page 74. I also linked page to provide information HERE.

    Hope this information is useful and have a great day!

  • The print spooler has a problem and closes its doors.

    The print spooler has a problem and closes its doors. This often happens when I'm trying to print something with multiple copies. Any program that I use either Wordperfect or editor he has a problem. It helps that I could restart the computer and it clear, but not even this works now.

    Try to uninstall and reinstall the printers.  Update the drivers for the printers you use.  Try to have both installed printer and see if you can isolate / how printer driver may be involved in the issue.

  • Printing in Lightroom 5 problems

    I have problems printing in Lightroom 5 and it's very frustrating! I spent lot of money of ink and paper, but I still have the problem.

    I run MacOS 10.9, Lightroom 5.3 and I print on an Epson R3000.

    The first problem I had was that images were printed on just a small part of the paper and cut images. I've attached a picture showing this. I completely reinstalled my computer and now it seems that this problem has gone (for now at least). But now, the images are printed, but much smaller than the paper, I said. If I said I got something close to the A4 A3 +. Print borderless on 6 * 4 seeks to work as it should, but it's the only one I was able to print so far.

    I tested printing from Photoshop 5.1 and which worked find.

    I'm getting desperate here, please help!

    R3000 problem.jpg

    Hi Tommy,.

    I just hit the same problem and hoping that you've cracked it now!

    Like you, I'm under Mac OSX 10.9.1 and Lr 5.3.  No problem previously with Lightroom 4, 3 or 2 on OSX versions.  I can print on A4 no problem, but when I try A3 apparently evolve to correct A3 but cultures up to A4 (borderless?) in a corner, similar to your experience.  Ultimately I have to use Photoshop, I guess!

    I forgot to say, I'm on Epson 3800 printer.  I need to make a few prints A2 next week and I wonder if they will be more effective than the A3.  Having to use Photoshop seems a real step backwards.

    Geoff T

    PS - I've found a workaround.  Some of my images are in portrait format and, guess what, they work very well to the format A3.  I then tried an image in landscape format but printed by print module, as if it was portrait - worked well.  It's better than having to use Photoshop for printing.

    There is obviously a bug with Lr5 using Mac, but of workaround seems an easy option.

  • DeskJet 3632: Envelope printing HP Deskjet 3632 problem

    Recently purchased Deskjet 3632 printer and can't print envelopes with my Hallmark Card Studio 2016.     Whenever I try to print one, I get the error message that the EWS does not approve the size of paper in the printer and the format selected on the computer.  On previous HP printers the envelope A9 size is listed, but when I go to EWS, all what I can choose is sizes small and med-large envelopes.  Please give me a hint on what to try next.  TKS

    Sorry for the delay.  Same result with other programs...  The problem seems to be that the letter formats or displayed envelope for the printer does not display an envelope A9.  Hope that someone could tell me how to do to work "around" this omission of sizes listed for the printer or HP somehow get to change the registered envelope size.  Don't think - guess purchase another print can be the only route to take.  I'll check other brands to see what they can do.  After many years called

  • HP Deskjet 2540: Problem printing with HP deskjet 2540

    Hello world.

    I need assistance with my printer. Sorry but I am not English native language so I hope you will understand everything.

    I have a HP deskjet printer and Windows 8 2540.

    The problem is that when you're printing suddenly stops printing. But if I try to print single pages, it prints again.

    When it stops print anything in the print queue as if she have all the.

    It usually occurs with the PDF file.

    I tried to search on the hp support page and I followed the instructions about to disable the printer spooler because maybe can give problem while printing, I did it but when I tried to print again the computer give me a message like this "If you want to print you need to install a printer" but it is not uninstalled the printer, its status is "ready to print".

    Can you help me please? Because I do not understand, and he is not the first time that the printer give me problem while printing.

    Thank you and sorry for my bad English

    @ViviHika

    You are welcome.

    Unless you disable the print spooler service, it will restarts when you then start / restart the computer.  In almost all cases, it is a good thing.

    You can find the startup type control:

    Control Panel > display icon > Administrative Tools > Services >

    Services opens > defiler scroll down, find the print spooler > right-click on print spooler click >

    Opens properties > startup type: > select from the menu:

    • Manual

    You can, if you wish, change the options in the print spooler > Properties > recovery tab

    One of the most interesting Print Recovery options: restart the computer

    • Restart the computer may be initiated at the first, second, or one point of future failure.

    "Restart the computer" (without the clearing of the PRINTERS folder) can be used to stop and restart the spooler then (at startup).  The restart procedure could allow 'stuck' print jobs to resume printing.

    The option "Restart the computer" could be useful in a situation printing is a main function of the computer and the printer is supposed to work without supervision / outside normal office hours.

    When you configure the "Restart the computer" option, you can enable "actions for stops with errors."  For example, you can send a message to the computers on the network, which indicates the computer will be restarted within a certain time.

  • printer Deskjet 6122 problem

    My printer suddenly stopped printing.  It will be printed my scanner but don't print of my Dell Inspiron 8200.  It produces noises like it's printing and it advances the paper in "steps" as it does when it's printing, but the page comes out blank!

    I removed it from the pc by using the CD that came with it, can it, reinstalled twice.  Still does not print.  Keep in mind that it does not print scan!

    The scanner (ScanJet 4200C) gets 'print' instructions by the computer.  I replaced the ink cartridge, which obviously was not needed and downloaded the latest drivers from the hp site.  Nothing has worked.  Seems to be a communication problem between the pc and the printer, and yet he speaks perfectly of the scanner to the computer and then to the printer.

    I should be grateful if you would help to correct this problem.

  • HP Deskjet 4535: Problem of Hp all-in-One remote printing

    Hello

    I bought a Deskjet 4535 all-in-one last week and there was a problem printing word document using the all-in-one remote application via the iphone.   Impressions of thin paper thorigh the laptop wireless, but when you use the remote, the content document appear to have shrunk - while there were four pages originally, now the output is adapted in three pages, with the smallest font size.   I tried to manual pagebreaks on all four sides, but it still shows the same.  Document has been prined in the dropbox, both laptop & iphone folder.

    Help, please.

    Hey @drappoo,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that you have some problems with printing from the HP all-in-One remote app on your iPhone to your Deskjet Ink Advantage 4535 e-all-in-one printer. I can help you with that.

    What is happening, that is when printing from your iPhone or iPad, that the camera takes a picture that is displayed on the screen and print it. If things appear smaller so he has to solve is to change the size of the text to a larger size, and then change the zoom on the camera settings. Once you do this, you should be able to print all the greater.

    If you're still not print correctly, by uninstalling and installing the HP ePrint app should help you with that.

    Please let me know the results after following the above. If you are able to print properly, click on accept solution. If you appreciate my help, please click on the thumbs up icon. The two icons are below this post.

  • Printing Deskjet 3650 problems

    I have problems to my 3650 Deskjet to print correctly.  My drivers are up to date.  My operating system is Windows XP and I get no error message.  I have new cartridges which are dated September 2014 and are subject full set aside.  I cleaned them several times but always lines through colourful pictures as if heads were dirty.  The printer is used almost daily.  I suspect the defective cartridges but can be seen on something else.  This problem did not start immediately when the cartridges were installed and aligned.

    Hi kemdlm,

    I'm linking you to the manual of your printer.  Click here  If you select Maintenance, you will see options for:

    • Automatically cleaning print cartridges.
    • Manually cleaning print cartridges.

    I suggest that you select one of them that you did not and follow the steps.

    If it does not help your problem, you can go back to the top of the manual and select:

    • Troubleshooting and then print quality is poor.

    You can follow these steps to help improve the print quality.  Let me know how it goes.

    Good luck!

  • HP Deskjet 6122: Problems printing to my HP Deskjet 6122 after upgrade to Windows 10

    Hello

    I used the above printer on Windows 7 OS by downloading the driver for the HP Deskjet 990c printer and it worked well.

    After that I had upgraded to Windows 10, I wasn't able to find the printer printer & devices on the list.

    The icon appears very much (like HP990c), but when I try to print, it is just straight up with an error message.

    The ironic part is that I have a 1220C HPDekjet, who is an older printer, and which has been added successfully as a new printer and prints well.

    Optionally you can give guidance will be highly appreciated.

    Hello

    I'm afraid that the HP Deskjet 6122 is inompatible with Windows 10, it is no longer supported on Windows 8 or any later operating system.
