HP photosmart 5510:5510 FAILS ALIGNMENT

I recently changed the print cartridges in my HP photosmart 5510 and now black ink only prints on alternate line.  I tried to do an alignment, but he simply says 'alignment failed, press OK continue' (that's after printing of the alignment and then page analysis directs the printer).  The printer provides additional guidance to correct the problem.  I put the old cartiges impression back in and you printer continues to have the same error.  I only use genuine HP ink cartridges.

  • New black cartridge does not print - Photosmart 5510 all-in-One

    I replaced all my ink cartridges when they ran.  The black cartridge is printing not and cannot even print alignment test page to align my new cartridges.  They are HP cartridges I bought and now after all cleaning procedures, I have now exhausted all new cartridges.  My warranty is exceeded, even if I have not received the new printer last Christmas, but my family he registered in August when they bought it for me.  I'm going to buy new cartridges, but I fear that I will lose more money that this problem will not be solved.  Someone help.  I have uninstalled, reinstalled, cleaned print heads, tried to align the cartridges but error message appears then all new Board would be good.  Thank you

    Hello Cath,

    I'm really sorry to hear about your Photosmart 5510 aligning properly and not printing in black ink. I understand that you have tried to align the printer and it has not solved the problem. I want to help you and make you my best to do it!

    At this point, I do not pretend to try new cartridges (especially black) and trying to do the alignment again. I found a useful troubleshooting guide following which solves the problem, I hope.

    Here's the guide I recommend following step by step:

    A "alignment failed" Error Message appears on the printer

    * Tip - make sure that the printer is connected directly to the wall outlet.

    Please do not hesitate to post your results here and I will help you further if necessary.

  • Photosmart 5510: Brick of power inside the camera moves around

    This support site is just terrible first, been trying to support by email for almost an hour and just because I'm not at home I can't contact anyone because I have no serial number... not cool at all!

    I have a photosmart 5510, I noticed when I plug in the power cord to the rear of the machine, I can feel the brick of power inside move around, in fact, it is totally not installed in place, I never heard a brick power did this before it is inside an electronic device, the thing must be screwed or something.  I wanted to know if it was normal for this machine, or there's something wrong with my machine.

    It works fine, no problem.

    Thank you

    It is normal, because the power inside the Photosmart brick could be removed, in which case the power brick fails.

    Figure 1. The back of the Photosmart camera.

    Which look just above the power connector, there is a small screw or bolt. When you use a screwdriver then is posible to remove that cover and find the power brick.

    Figure 2.  How to turn the screwdriver to open the power module.

    Attention: If you want to do this, please first POWER OFF and REMOVE the CABLES from the rear of the Photosmart camera.

    But it is normal that brick inside power moves a bit.

    Hope this information helps you

  • Photosmart 5510 cartridgelife problems

    I have a Photosmart 5510, using the HP 364 cartridges; Occasionally, it is used as a printer, as I have a mono laser for most goals.  When we bought the printer to the local PC world as a year ago, they also sold us a set of replacement cartirdges - than the normal size, we use so little.

    The original cartridges failed in October, and I replaced the as a whole.  New cartridges are all now showing as empty or very close to being, and the printer is unable to produce green text.  From what I've seen the average lifetime for this cartridge should be 250-300 pages - I'm 100% certain, we have done less than a tenth of that (probably only one twentieth) - which is surely not normal?  The dates of expiration of warranty for cartridges read between 05/13 (Cyan) 07/13 (yellow) 08/13 (Magenta) and 09/13 (Black) - surely that they cannot have all dried up, having all been stored in sealed bags?

    Anyone got any ideas?

    If you have already opened cartridges (ie: tweaked the shipcap) so I recommend to leave it in the printer. Once the printer is power off correctly at the power switch the print head will be capped correctly.

    If you have not opened them, then leave them in their packaging.

    Hope this helps

  • driver installation failure on photosmart 5510

    I am trying to install my photosmart 5510 on a new computer, Windows 7 (64 bit) operating system. everytime I try and go through all the steps of downloaded I get an install error - failure of the HP Installation - MSI 1603. Cannot get past. The printer is configured on a wireless network and that works, just can't get the driver to install. I tried to remove the program and he can't delete because it is not installed correctly. It seems very circular. Any ideas?

    These install failures can be no fun. Looks like you may have a few things underway.

    You indicate that the software cannot be uninstalled. Where are you try uninstalling to?
    * The best place to remove the HP printing software that won't remove is through the control panel > programs > uninstall a program.
    * If the printer software still cannot be removed in this way, you can find a Microsoft Fix It solution. This program will help with software that will not uninstall.

    Also, you have found the failure of Installation of HP - MSI 1603. It is indicating that one of the MSI (Microsoft Installation) files fails to run. MSI often fail if the permissions are not correct as well.

    There are a few measures that take to this error:
    * Press Windows + R key to the "Run" command
    * Type msiexec.exe to confirm MSI Version 4.5 or higher. Below if the 4.5 Version, stop here and answer to get instructions on how to update MSI.

    If MSI Version 4.5 or higher:
    * Press Windows + R key.
    * Type msiexec /Unregister and press ENTER. If it works, there is no message.
    * Press Windows + R key.
    * Type msiexec /regsvr and press ENTER. This will confirm that the MSI is working.

    Remove all remaining files:
    Open the C: drive > Program Files (x 86) > HP folder
    * Delete the folder with the Photosmart series 5510 in the title. It is to ensure that all remaining for the printer software has disappeared.

    * Press Windows + R
    * Type %temp% , and then press ENTER.
    * Delete all files starting with 7z. It's remove for installation failed installation files.

    Now to install in:
    * Make sure you are using the administrator login
    * Download the most current driver for your printer.
    * When you run the downloaded file, make sure you right click and click on run as administrator.

    Photosmart HP 5510 is not that old of a printer. I guess that this printer is still under warranty. If these steps do not address the issue then give the HP Technical Support a call at 1-800-474-6836.

  • Photosmart 5510 not printing and noises when toggled or asked to print?

    About 6 months ago, we purchased our printer HP Photosmart 5510 alongside our Touchsmart computer, and so far, both work fine.

    However, there are a few weeks at random, when I sent a document to print, the printer started making a very loud noise, sounding almost as if he was that something stuck in the back there. Only to make the noise stop, I cancelled the printing and has turned off, which again triggers intense noise. This back on once again, he made the same noise and, before moving on to the usual display a notice on the monitor of printer flashed by saying that the device had extinguished itself incorrectly.

    It lasts for a few weeks now, and after having scoured your Web site for all the details, I couldn't find anything on this issue. After detecting that other factors may have come into it, I watched some of your videos on how to fix etc. paper jams. After pulling some paper in the back, I thought the culprit of all this, the message on the monitor said he had a 'ink cartridge problem' or could not detect the paper, even if we just replaced the ink and I have to reload the paper. I watched the videos of these two problems troubleshooting and tried 20 seconds thing etc, but nothing worked.

    Really, I'm so frustrated and I would like a little help from a very kind person out there?

    Hey mollycat,

    It seems that there is a problem with the power of the printer mechanism paper.  If the unit was loud noises, then it might be a part out of alignment or a piece of paper caught in the unit.  However, you mentioned the continuation of the measures is stuck, remove the paper, and now the printer gives error ink system.

    I will provide documentation of troubleshooting below for the two issues, but if these steps don't erase the question then I would advise to contact HP Technical Support on this printer.  Is it is only 6 months old, then it would still be under warranty by the original manufacturer.

    An "Out of paper" message on the control panel and the all-in-one doesn't pick up paper

    An alphanumeric Code (example: ' 0 x 'r' C2...) ") or 'Ink system failure' Error Message is displayed on the front panel when printing

    Finally solved the problem. Had an old Pentium 3 machine around the pose and decided to try to change the disk hard on and see if I could install the printer with a different material.

    It turns out that the mup.sys file, which has something to do with PnP devices, has been damaged and Windows wouldn't start in the other Tower. Then, I took out the HARD drive and put it back in the Dell can reformat Windows XP and guess what, printer installed without a hitch the first time I tried! Now I have to reinstall everything on the computer * sigh *.

    In any case, the printer problem fixed!

  • This issue is still pending. My PhotoSmart 5510 continues to go offline during the generation of printed documents.

    I have a PhotoSmart 5510 and a Toshiba i7 Quad 4 laptop running Windows7 with a Trendnet Wireless router.

    My PhotoSmart 5510 disconnects when printing is generated.    All systems are go: online wirelessly connected wireless, does not not offline, set as the default printer, checkmark, etc..  Sometimes it will make an impression and disconnect and sometimes it will disconnect the first time and will not be printed.

    If I run the diagnostic utility I can usually get it online.  But the said diagnostic utility it is disconnected and the problem is not "resolved".

    It also has a problem with the USB.  If I've set up as a USB printer will crash the entire operating system and laptop computer will not restart unless the USB is disconnected or if the printer is turned off.  This does not happen with my laptop computer on the same Lexmark printer.

    obewan,

    This article should help to keep the Wi - Fi connection (including things like setting a static IP address for your printer to avoid the crash between you OS/router/printer):
