HP Deskjet D2660: All prints gives blank Pages

Hello. We have long used the faithful D2660 to print labels for shipping mostly in black and white. We recently used not printer in over a month, and upon his return, is having problems printing.  It was unusually hot in England during that period and may have caused the problem is perhaps remarkable?

All attempts to print blank paper to return. The printer goes through the usual movements of printing, but it seems that there is no ink coming out of the cartridge.

I tried...

  • Insert two offical cartridges with ink left and who does not. The first two were seen correctly make the ink and the third was also properly don't not have ink. It can identify how much ink is left in a cartridge.
  • The toolbox using automated "To clean the print cartridges", "defamation cleaning Page back" and "Test Print-document". Nothing has changed and it printed a blank page.
  • Move the printer cable
  • Grayscale (who oppose black ink only) and checking the size of the page.
  • I have already used the printer on Ubuntu. I started a live CD and tried to print from there, but again without success.
  • Installed the latest drivers from HP.com. It does not appear to say something wrong with the printer.

Hello @ZackR,

Welcome to the Forums of HP and thanks for posting!

I want to help you with the problem of blank print you are having with your HP Deskjet 2660 printer.

Thanks for the detailed description of the problem and the steps you have taken to try to solve it. Looks like the ink in your cartridges can have dried in the hot season (this is especially likely if you have had their printer output).

I would recommend looking on the steps in this document, to see if there is nothing, you may have missed:

HP Deskjet D2600 series printers - troubleshooting print quality issues

If the problem persists, I strongly recommend replacing your cartridges, because it seems that the printer itself works fine.

I hope this helps!

    4. click on the Advanced tab

    5. click on the Separator Page

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 has prints a blank page before each print job

    He just started this recently. Prints a blank page before each print job. Because of this quirk, I can't print now before backward.

    Hi Stevienext,

    Thanks for your response with your OS info!

    I would say that running the HP print and Scan Doctor to start to see if that solves the problem.

    If the problem persists, continue.

    Then, try to print from a few different programs to see if the problem occurs in only program or more. This will help us better to 'target' the question.

    Let me know if the pages are still printing in white and that the programmes seem to be giving you the problem.

    I'll do more if necessary suggestions there!

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I hope you enjoy your stay here.

    I understand that you have a cartridge in your desire 4500 e - all - in - one printer that is low on ink, but has stopped printing. This printer will display a warning when the cartridge is low on ink, but continues to print if there is an entry ink in the cartridges or not. Most likely, the cartridge is empty, but this document gives an overview of the steps to fix the poor troubleshooting print quality. If this document does not allow the cartridge print cartridge then would need to be replaced.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8630 - work of borderless printing produces blank pages

    Hello-

    On my HP Officejet Pro 8630, when I start a print job and select ' without borders on "print 3 or more copies, the first 2 pages of the print job, and then a blank page prints, followed by a good impression, followed with a blank page, etc. until that work ends.

    If I disable the option without borders, the job will print correctly without blank pages.  I tried printing from multiple computers and programs with the same number and have updated printer drivers / the most recent versions.

    I tried printing wired network, wireless network and USB all with the same result.  I've had the printer for less than a month.

    I use the printer for business purposes, and it is causing the major headaches!

    Thank you

    I solved the problem by selecting the Type of paper - HP Bright White... She has been set to the default value of plain paper.  I can now borderless printing correctly without blank pages.

  • Photosmart D7460 prints a blank page between every page of text.

    My D7460 spits out a blank page before every page it prints. I have read the manual and can not find a solution for this problem. I retinstalled the drivers, reboot the printer by default, etc.. There is no error message.

    I had the same problem. Printer unplugged, uninstalled all HP applications, then reinstalled. Seems to work. However, I tried to fix the blurry photos, but they are still hurting. Used to be great. It looks like its back to Kodak.

  • Printing a blank page

    Whenever I print a document follows a white. How can I fix?

    Thanks for the reply.

    I would like to run the print HP and Dr. Scan to try to dispel the impression of the black page after your document. If you don't have it already, please make a copy of the front of the printer. The blank page follows the copy?

    Try to check for updates on the front panel of the printer, press the Web Services icon in the upper left corner > settings > Product Updates > search for updates of the product now.

  • PSC 1350 all prints a test page every time when turned on

    After changing the cartridge, we printed test page.

    Now, whenever we turn on the printer it prints test page automatically.

    How to disable this option?

    Thank you

    Hello vancat,

    If your problem is that your PSC 1350 prints a test page when it is turned on or after every printjob, it is very likely because the cartridge alignment process is not finished. After you have installed a new cartridge in the printer, it will print an alignment page. You must take this page and place it on the scanner glass (make sure that the top of the page is in a good way), then you press the "Scan" button on the printer itself. It will scan the page (that is, read the page) and full alignment process (so it is not scanning in the sense that it sends an image to the computer).

    I hope that clarifies the process of alignment slightly.

  • Photosmart HP 6520: Printer work and print a blank page, on its own without input from any computer or device.

    I use a configuration of Photosmart Printer series 6520 linked to a Comcast Cable modem router /wifi.  I use WPA2 security with a long password. (I also tried setting by using the system of the WPS - with changes in symptoms). With this router, the wifi connection I share with

    1. MacbookPro computer
    2. iPhone 6SPlus
    3. 12.9 inches iPad Pro

    The symptoms are:

    At random times during the day or night, you can hear computer works as if someone sent a print job.

    1. You go to the printer, and the front panel display is on.
    2. There is an empty of leaves paper ejected from the printer.

    In the night when in bed and all devices are disabled except router and of course the printer, I can hear the printer works and then I wake up the next morning and there is a blank sheet of paper in the output tray.  I'm off to put the paper in the paper tray.

    I keep the printer on 24 hours a day, because as ink jet printer inks tend to dry out the exposed to natural air. And HP recommends keep printer to prevent dry ink clogging in the head. I understand everything power is suspended unless the circuit warming (and it appeared to work that way until quite recently).

    Although it made no difference, I just update the HP Update version 5 driver sent from Apple.  It turns out that it is the wasted effort, and I lost my custom configurations because the driver for my printer has not been updated for at least two years. He always uses the version 4.2.5 of the driver. (El Capitan is X.11.6 with the latest security updates).

    Printer works fine otherwise.  Suggestions?

    Yes, it made no difference. The façade has finally exploded but ocassion, it still ejects a sheet or two of paper.  Guess it's irreparable. I can live with. Works fine in the case.  Just close it as insoluble.
