• DeskJet 5550 cartridge status light flashing problem

  I have a Deskjet 5550. The power led is on and the print cartridge status light is FLASHING. Immediately before that, the prints have a lot of black and color.

  I opened and closed the plate on the cartridges.

  I took on each of the two cartridges and put back them in.

  I have looked for "the yellow arrow and icons", but can not find them.

  I turned the printer on and outside.

  I turned off the computer (Compac Presario CG60 - 206US Notebook PC) and rebooted.

  Help! Please, I beg you! Thank you!!!

  Hi mmdb1,

  I understand that the cartridges are not cheap, but to help isolate the problem, try another set of cartridges. If you install a new set and the problem is resolved, you can then contact our technical support line for the replaced defective cartridges.

• DeskJet 5550 cannot print the page to clean cartridges.

  DeskJet 5550, Win 7 64 bit, after clicking on the clean print cartridges, it does nothing. Power light is solid on. The menu box arrives with Click clean to clean the cartridges now. Clicking on clean makes this area of empty menu and nothing happens. No error or no program has stopped responding. Can the text and images fine print except that I need to run the utility for a few minor flaws. Past to the best setting which helped a lot. Does not print the calibration page either. Prints all the tests and the test page.

  I believe you can force a cycle of cleaning as follows: power on press and hold the power button, press on and release the button X twice quickly, then release the power button.  No page will print, but you should hear the printer to clean.  A more aggressive cleaning can be done by pressing the X button twice and once the page break button, a still more energetic cleaning by pressing the X button twice, then press the page twice break before releasing the power button.

  You can print a diagnostic page holding the power and then button by pressing the X button eight times followed by the button to jump to page four times, then release the power button.

• DeskJet 932C - the power light is on and the cartridge flashing

  Hello! I know my DeskJet 932C is 'old', but it seems to be in excellent condition.  First time that I had a problem.  The power light is on and the cartridge is flashing.  When I open the cover, the plateau of the cartridge moves to the far left.  The arrow points to the unfortunate color cartridge.  The missed years ago color cartridge.  I use my printer to print B & W, so I've been printing with the empty cartridge in place for years.

  I removed a reinserted the color and B & W cartridges and turn on the power and turns off.  I used the HP print and scan doctor, and it's scan does not have something wrong, I clicked on print a test page, and nothing happens.  The test page is listed as 1 document in the queue.   Status: error - printing.

  The printer has been in its current position on my desk for years.  It was not known of any trauma... None does damage... no power failure.  It's clean.  Has been connected to 4 laptops and uninterrupted service.

  I prefer not to buy a new color cartridge.

  Would appreciate help.  I would like to know what it means and if there is a solution.

  Thank you!

  The printer will perform electrical cartridges to light control and a few other times.  If an error printing can be blocked to avoid damaging the printer.  Clean the contacts of the cartridge as shown in the document here can solve the problem, otherwise you will probably need to replace the color cartridge.  The 932 Deskjet will allow printing with an empty cartridge, but for years, the cartridge may fail electrically and needs to be replaced.

• 'put in cartridge' with the warning light.

  mp360 printer shows 'put in cartridge' with warning light. The cartridges are in. Will print once, then stop.

  Had the head cleaned and it printed fine nozzle boss, tried to print a page of the same alarm.

  I took out the head and cleaned the contacts on the back with alchol brass and also the pins of copper on the carrage come into contact with the head.

  I printed up to present three pages. So far so good.

• How can I check the ink level in the cartridge on my Deskjet 5550?

  How can I check the level of ink in the cartridges on my Deskjet 5550 printer? Mahlon R. Hoover

• Printer Deskjet 5550

  My Deskjet 5550 printer started printing very slow for some reason any.  It takes 5 minutes to print a fourth of a page.  It has worked very well.  I found a Web site and did all the troubleshooting that was proposed, even bought a new cable.  Someone has an idea of what could be the problem?

  The printer does a bunch of print heads, then pause for 15 seconds?  If so, I would say remove the cartrdige of color and try a print job.  If the result is always a slow printing can replace the color cartridge and remove the black cartridge and then print a page.  The cartridge installed when the page prints slowly is the likely culprit. (Note that printing with only the installed color cartridge will be a little slower than normal printing with black cartridge installed.  For the purposes of this test you are looking for gross differences in print speed.)

  The printer is no longer supported for Mac OS X 10.6 and will not become supported in the future on new versions of the OS.

• Photosmart C7280 all in one printer keeps giving me expired ink cartridge warning

  My Photosmart C7280 all in one printer Guard giving me expired ink cartridge warning.  The cartridge has expired, but I want to continue to use it as it still has ink.  Is it possible to turn off these warnings to be boring?  I can't print until I have to recognize them!

  @ CoolBreeze202 - I'm sorry that you are having this problem with the ink cartridges and the ink expiration error message.  You can try to clean the contacts on the cartridge and the contacts inside the machine to ensure that built up on the parts are not the source of the error message. Pages 163 and 164 of the user manual will show a manual cleanup process.

  I would also do a hard reset to the printer to try to clear the error message and return the printer to a known working state. No user settings are lost with a hard reset.  Here is a link that will show you how to do a hard reset on this machine.

• HP Deskjet 5550: Printer sharing via Router/USB?

  So, I have an ASUS router with EZ printer sharing function. I have connected my printer to the router via USB but I can't find the printer in windows. When I surfed in to my router, I see the printer via the firmware on the router and the router has detected my printer model.

  I tried with the only available software for my printer, nothing helps. I also downloaded a software from ASUS, same progress. Any suggestions?

  Parallel USB cables can be problematic, and in this case is not necessary.  The Deskjet 5550 has a USB port (in addition to the parallel port).  Install the printer such as described in this page.

• HP Deskjet 5550 printer that Jam

  Hello

  I'm new to this forum, please bear with me if I'm posting in the right place.

  I have a printer HP Deskjet 5550 (Yes, quite old, but very reliable), and he has developed a printer jam that I can't solve.  I tried to delete the document, canceling, the printer power off, practically everything to get rid of printing, but it seems to be stuck on 'delete '.  I now can't print anything else as all other jobs piling up just behind the print job blocked / deleted.  Can anyone suggest how to totally eliminate this jam?

  Thanks a lot for reading.

• 64-bit driver for printer deskjet 5550

  When you try to upgrade to win 10 of win 7 I found this 10 victory did not support the driver 64 bits (deskjet 5550. When I tried to come back to win 7 64-bit driver was absent. I have been all over the site of HP and others to find a 64 bit driver with no luck. Can someone help me with this problem...

  Go there, this post was for days and no one can tell me where I can get a simple driver? It's the Microsoft Community we rely on you, a member of this community knows where he is. I done all the easy stuff. (ie) HP and others I know that this driver is out there somewhere, come on give me a little help

  1 is not using HP printer install wizard for Windows ? - http://support.hp.com/gb-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Deskjet-5500-Printer-series/71895/model/71897 if you think it installs a 32-bit driver if that's all that's available, but that shouldn't be the end of the world.

  2 you can download a 64-bit driver from Microsoft update instead of this catalogue.

  2.1 connect to an administrator account first [must]

  2.2 open IE [there]

  2.3, go to http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Search.aspx?q=hp%20deskjet%205550%20

  2.4 organize results in chronological order by clicking on the header.  This makes it just easier to see what is happening.
