HP officejet 4500 ink cartridge 'rail' bump

In collaboration with Window 7 on a gateway DX-4870.

I have a HP 4500 just purchased in April and straight out of the box, he made a snap / the deaf sound of the ink cartridge area.  Stall hits ink cartridge slot against the wall on the right several times and everything that is behind all this keeps pushing him to also and then finally after a few minutes of all the this snap and the deaf it stops.  It looks good printing.

Any ideas before you return it and get something else?

Thank you

The band of coding (transparent plastic that runs along the printer above the transport bar) could be dirty causing the cart to not read the appropriate end point and collide with the printer.

This can be cleaned up but is usually not the case on such a new printer unless there has been a lot of printing.

One small thing to check is to make sure that the printer is connected to a wall outlet and not a stip to eliminate a power problem that can cause weird problems.

What this a copy printer and print from the computer?  The noise corresponds to each?

  • Why is there ink in my Officejet 7310 ink cartridges?

    After that the error message indicating that the transport was stuck on my Officejet 7310, a colleague moved to transport and discovered masses of black ink in the well under the ink cartridges. A lot of black ink * beep * has been dug with a Q-Tip, who solved the problem of paper jam carriage. Much ink remains in the cartridge. Where it comes from and how to safely clean? Is a normal buildup? How can't we accumulate more ink? Thank you for your suggestions.

    Here a link to a document that shows how clean and maintain different areas and parts of the printer such as the capping station.  He will be given instructions on how to go about cleaning the machine and what materials to use. It is advisable to use on the machine lint free rags.

    Some excessive accumulation of time is normal because the ink can be "fall back" on the printing process.  It is recommended that a cleaning is done every six months, if this is the first cleaning, there might be more to accumulate in the printer that could be expected. I hope this helps.

    I just bought a map of the HP Instank ink. I'm about to use the first black cartridge, but I still have another cartridge new color I need to use. I start support fully if I use only one cartridge?

    Hey @EMJ-00.

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that you have some questions about the instant the ink program. I can help you with that.

    When you print, the system determines if an instant ink page is printed according to it there a moment cartridge in the printer. If you insert the black cartridge, your only color pages into account. My suggestion is to insert two instant ink cartridges and save the color cartridge for emergencies.

    After you install the new black ink cartridge, error message came: 'print cartridge problem [Black]. Refer to the documentation for the device to get out of trouble. »

    I removed the cartridge and reinsert. Same message. Unplug the printer, then turn it off. When turned on again, the same message.

    Thank you, Jason, for your support.  Lesson: stick to what worked before, for example, 901 XL ink cartridge, as opposed to 901.

  • OfficeJet 4635: Ink cartridges

    If I use a high-capacity black ink cartridge (XL), will there be enough room to use a tricolor cartridge at the same time?

    There are different locations for Black and TriColor, XL or normal, go in the same dwelling, is not take-away room from other locations.

    for example, you can put any combination of XL or normal, but one black and one color, in the designated location.

  • HP brand new 4620 Officejet black ink cartridge and it won't print black at all the

    Hello, my printer has failed recently more ink. So I bought a set of cartridges to Staples. I installed them and ran the print head cleaning function. I now have the great color and BLACK NO. I ran to repeatedly print head cleaning function. Its so frustrating to monitor printers the past 2 decades range from reliable gains to unreliable everything in the financial goal. I've had printers since the 1980s, I used printers when they came with the ribbons, who hardly could, although they can indeed dry. At least when they dry out, you would be able to put a new one in and continue. Now that they have designed replaceable print heads (because they were made knowing that they will fail), ink cartridges that are not interchangeable (knowing that once you got with the printer model, you can most likely switch to another brand or model) that uses a DIFFERENT model ink cartridge. All for finacial gain. Between my office and home, I lived 4 printers in the past 2 years. I've been a loyal fan of Lexmark, until my old died and I bought a new, the first thing I noticed was the variable print head and I thought, uh oh, that is going to fail and so said, so done, within 3 months of using the printer, Lexmark sent me 2 print heads and 2 series of inks of replacement free of charge. I still have a set of ink and print head because the LCD screen turned white, lol. Had to throw it away. Eventually move to HP that I believe is made in the same factory as Lexmarks after comparison of many models. Now I have the newest HP to my office and its been so far great and SUPERB ink usage, PREVIOUSLY. I'm almost afraid to know what my future has in store. I know that I fell in a field off-topic, BUT HP, YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF yourself. I have now lost $60 on a new series of cartridges and will most likely need a new printer since my warranty has expired. SMH. Bad business!

    A representative has in fact contact me to rectify the situation, even if my unit is out of warranty period. I really appreciate the effort. Kudos to HP.

  • Officejet 6310 ink cartridge

  • HP Officejet 6500 ink cartridge 920, Vista - alignment failed, black ink does not print

    I went through the diagnostic process because my printer gives me a view of alignment failed and my black ink will not print.   It is established that I need to replace the print head.  Is it complicated?  What should I do when I need the printer/fax every day?  I have no time for that computer to be down for a day, and even less for as long as it takes to get the part here and replace it myself.  Or worse, if I send to HP to have the work done.

    Replacement of the print head is not complicated, it can be done in 5 minutes.  Before doing this, you could be sure that the ventilation openings are not connected and you might try to soak the printhead as shown here.
