HP OFFICEJET series 4620. Ink cartridge problem

Buy this printer yesterday.  Followed the instructions re insert the cartridges.  Installed the software.  Keeps saying: install cartridges and I can't go out re ink cartridges - insert operations for the cartridges being too far over to the right.  I have #m at a loss what to know.  I have it turned off and on again, but the problem persists.

Thank you

Hi Sheilaoc,

I understand the printer refuses the cartridges and the transport is stuck on the right side. I want to help you solve this problem, so you can start enjoying your new printer.

I suggest that first you open the door of ink, leave the printer and unplug the power cable. Is the power cord unplugged, you can now move the carriage to the Center and remove the cartridges. Once the cartridges are removed, close the access door and plug the printer back. The printer will now start again and it will prompt you to install the cartridges. If this does not resolve the problem, use the following document for additional solutions. A "cartridge problem," "ink cartridge failure," or "Incompatible cartridge" Error Message is displayed on the control panel.

Just in case the problem persists, call HP for your warranty options.  The number of call HP is 1-800-474-6836 for the Canada and the United States, or you can Contact HP worldwide.

I hope this helps.

    Hi @Paula15,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you have found a cartridge problem message on your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus. I'm happy to discuss this issue for you!

    Please have a look through this guide, an 'ink cartridge failure', not 'compatible ink cartridges', or 'Ink cartridge problem' Error Message appears on the printer. You will want to ensure that you are using genuine HP cartridges does not, and if one of your colors is low or empty, they will need to be replaced as well. Check out this guide, printing with depleted cartridges, for more information.

    Hope this information is useful and have a beautiful day!

  • Ink cartridge problem C310a: the following ink cartridge appears to be missing or damaged.

    Error message on the printer for the second time in a month. Ink cartridge problem: the following ink cartridge appears to be missing or damaged. (Blue ink) Refer to the printer Documentation. This error message came in January so I replaced the blue ink cartridge (I use genuine HP cartridges) it is now once again, so it takes the printer not the cartridge. There is nothing about it in my "documentation" and nothing relevant came in "troubleshooting."

    Hi there JanePr, welcome to the Forums!

    I understand that you see an error message on your Photosmart C310a on the ink cartridge is missing or damaged. The print head may have a problem that could trigger this error. I have a troubleshooting guide that I recommend that follow you, however, if you have already tried no steps, ignore them, as the replacement of the cartridge.

    Guide to link: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02255339

  • 'Ink cartridge problem' with model C309g

    I inserted a new black ink to the my Photosmart C309g. I want to only use black instead of having to buy the colors as well. When I put in the dark, the screen comes up with 'ink cartridge problem", saying that the following cartridges (all color and black in the photo) are missing or damaged. Is any way to get the printer to work with the black only? I can't make it past the 'problem' screen and it will not bypass it with me I'm trying to print something in black and white.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    @khuransh, you will need to replace the color cartridges until you are able to print again. The printer will not work without the color cartridges if you try to print in black. Color cartridges mixed with black to form a true black color. So when the colors are missing, the black will not work.

    @creditcard, the same applies, if the cartridge of yellow that came out, the black will not work because she needed some than yellow to form a black.

Then I went out and bought black ink (because it is low in any case) and installed it but this message kept popping up 'the following ink cartridges need to be replaced' (for color) even if she had new ink cartridges.

    My 5740 is less than 6 months old. I inserted a new black cartridge 901 and a new tricolor cartridge 901 and a few printed pages.

    I now am getting an error for ink problems cartridge to remove and then reinstall, first black and now both cartridges. I reinstalled them several times and have restarted the printer twice.

    What can we do? This printer has worked quite well up to this point. Thank you.

    Hello @Mikegaand welcome to the Forums of HP, I hope you enjoy your experience!

    I see that you have problems with the cartridge. I would like to help!

    I recommend you start by removing the ink cartridges and perform a power reset.  Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

    I would also say to following the steps found in this document:

    A 'lack of cartridges' or 'Problem of ink cartridges' Message is displayed on the control panel

  • OfficeJet 4500: Frequent tricolor cartridge problem

    I have an Officejet 4500 Wireless bought in autumn 2012.

    I suffer from reports very frequently by the printer there is a problem with the Tricolor cartridge. This almost always happens when the printer is on first, well that occasionally it happens either, or the problem clears quickly without intervention. Even if the problem persists, I can of course make any impression.

    Often, I can solve the problem by opening the door of the printer and, when cartridges have travelled over to the far right, either remove and replacing the Tricolor cartridge, or in case of failure by pushing so hard on the cartridge three colors that I fear the printer.

    I think therefore that the problem is nothing more [sic] as the result of bad contact between the printed circuit board of the cartridge and the cradle of the printer which got him, but I can't be sure. I tried to gently wipe the printed circuit of the cartridge with a damp cloth and isopropyl article in case of dirt or fat are the cause, but nothing helped.

    Has anyone else with an Officejet 4500 experienced this or a similar problem? Is there a known solution for this? Try a new cartridge would be likely to solve the problem?

    When the printer goes it is great, but for now I wonder if I'll have to throw away so much that the problem is so frustrating. I need to be able to print when I want to.

    TIA!

    Hi there @EastAnglianMan Welcome to the forums,

    I read in your post on cartridge errors three colors that you have noticed on your Officejet 4500 Wireless printer. Even if you have noticed that you have tried the majority of troubleshooting, I would say by browsing the troubleshooting guide that is targeted for this specific issue ensure that all steps have been tried. As for trying a new ink cartridge, that would be your personal choice if you want to buy and try to install a new one. A new cartridge may or may not solve the problem completely.

    "Incorrect print cartridge" or "Print cartridge problem" Message appears on the computer

    If troubleshooting doesn't help not solve your problem, then I would say call HP Technical Support to see other possibilities for you, as a business. If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions: click here.

    Have a great day, thanks for posting in the community!

  • Ink cartridge problems

    I have a HP Officejet 4500 wireless printer. It gives me the msg that I have 'Print Cartridge Problems'

    I changed both cartridges for those never used and still have the same problem of msg.  Until today it works fine. I knew that both cartridges were very low on ink but changing the two had nothing. I don't know what to do.

    I would be grateful for any suggestions.

    Thank you

    Hey Alex

    He gives the msg for the two cartridges, or does not specify black or tricolour flag? Have you tried cleaning the contacts on the carriage of the printer? You use genuine HP cartridges?

  • How can I find unused since my Officejet Pro 8500 ink cartridges?

    My Officejet Pro 8500 had a leak of ink all over the floor and my office yesterday morning when I first turned on.  When I opened the top to check the printheads, I discovered all ink inside the printer.  I think we just need recycling.  My problem: I have 5 UN-opened of HP #940 ink cartridges.  I would return to HP and get the replacement cartridges for our different printer, but do not have how to find out if this is possible.

    Hello @JoAnne2015!

    Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

    Sorry to hear about the leakage of ink in your printer.  To do any kind of exchange of ink with HP I recommend to contact our hotline.  Please follow this link www.hp.com/contacthp/ enter your product number, select your product, scroll down and fill out the form. Will then give you a case number and a phone number / reference to give the agent who answers your phone call.

  • Ink cartridge problem (three colors)

    Our HP Officejet J4680 seems to quickly browse the printer cartridges.  Today, the exclamation mark beside the display screen flashes yellow and the display shows the message - problem of cartridge-print (HABs) of the suggestions?

    Hi craigeaton,

    You replace the cartridges as soon as levels become weak? Your type of printer can continue to print with until there is so little ink printing will disappear to nothing. So, as long as the print is OK, you don't really replace the low ink cartridges. Using the draft if possible mode also helps.

    Of course, there is a problem with the Tricolor cartridge. You can use the steps listed in the link below to try to get it working again.
