HP Photosmart C5180 all-in-one: computer says magenta ink is empty, but it's not.

The computer says that the magenta ink is empty, but it's not. Black printing is only possible. When I I use the HP Solution Center and do a test print, it prints all colors with no problems. I can´t find the program that made this error.

  • Scan driver for HP Photosmart C5180 all-in-One

    I recently replaced my hard drive and while my printer (HP Photosmart C5180 All-In-One) works fine, I have no more scanning software. When I insert the installation disk I get a message saying that the software is not compatible with Vista (Home Premium). All I can find on the site of HP's software driver. This disc was used to work on this computer. The only difference I can think is that Vista has been updated. Where can I find analytical software that works on my Vista OS update?

    Try this driver for Vista

  • My HP Photosmart C5180 all-in-one will not print text correctly in black, color print very well.

    My HP Photosmart C5180 all-in-One does not print black without be eliminated text or streaks in the text. Will print fine text color.

    Have tried all the "patches" you list and much more. The printer prints fine on my old PC Windows XP and worked fine on my

    new PC using Windows 7 until recently.

    Please don't tell me to... Reinstall, download the new driver, install the new cartridge, clean align the print heads, different paper or go to 'solutions '... Etc... Etc.  I HAVE ALREADY BEEN THERE AND DONE THAT!

    Everything you "patches" end with 'the unit of service... " WHAT IN THE WORLD WHAT THAT MEANS!

    This has been a nice printer for more than 5 years, but is somewhat glitch spoil me when using the BLACK INK?

    Gordon,

    Thanks for the reply, expecting not one, but what you say is all that we need to buy another printer if we did all the "fixes", etc... etc. you know that take a printer to a repair shop will cost more

    then buy a new one.

    It was stupid of saying me to check on the warraty of HP page when I already told you that the unit is 5 years old.

    But don't thank you for the reply... even if it was a joke!

  • HP photosmart C5180 all in one printer ink cartridges

    My printer is about three years old, I loved this printer and the problem I'm having is that when he says that he new need recharging if I put yellow ink cartridges and still say that the ink is empty but other colors work except yellow and I put three yellow ink cartridges and still the same need to spare yellow I have a friend who is very expert on the computer and the printer and he said I need new printer we tried to reset the printer again and again and again, nothing works, so I thought that maybe I can try this blog and see if anyone has problems like me. Help, please. Thank you

    I think that something is wrong with your printer, I'm sorry.  There are electrical contacts 'read' the cartridge ink that can be messy, but other than that, nothing simple comes to mind.

  • Photosmart C5180 all-in-one hp c5180 p:

    My c5180 is detained previously.  If I want to print in black only it print if one of the color toner is empty or expired? If a cartridge is empty / expired no allhave be replaced?

    Hello

    IAM afraid, all cartridges have ink inside to print.

    If anyone from the ink cartridge is empty then the printer will not print.

  • My HP photosmart 6510e all-in-one scanning pictures in black and white but the docs are still in color.

    Scan pictures into my a6683w HP Vista in black and white, but the documents still scan in color.

    Hello there ingridt, welcome to the Forums!

    I noticed your post on the scans of your Photosmart 6510, scan to your system from Vista in black and white. I want to offer my suggestions to you to see if they can help you with this.

    First of all, try to launch the HP print and Scan Doctor who is used to fix the printing and scanning problems. You choose the option "Scanning" when the tool is run. It will inform you if the software is completely installed, or if there is a problem, it can not correct. If it detects an error and shows you a red 'X', I suggest then uninstall and reinstall.

    Here are some links to help with uninstalling and reinstalling if you happen to do these steps.

    1. uninstalling the printer software

    2. restart your PC

    3 reinstall: Photosmart HP 6510 e-All-in-One Printer - B211a

    Try a scan now and let me know how make you out!

    Good luck!

  • New computer and can not get the HP Photosmart C5180 all-in-One Printer to install and work

    I downloaded which, in my view, is the correct driver and mild wear.  I had to get one new computer, my other crashed, I can't install the software that came with it because I now use windows 7.  However, he has worked in windows 7 on the other computer.  I need for my printer and scanner.  I get no answer or scan error if I pass him answers do not.

    Where should I go from here?

    There are exactly two downloads.  One is IrfanView itself and the other is supplements.  This is all you need.

    Hi hp0516

    Were there displayed problems when you did the scan of the System File Checker?

    Here are the steps to make an uninstall of level 3, to remove all the HP files associated with the printer. I think that might help. The steps are:

    1. Click Start and type %temp% in the field run, press ENTER to open the temp folder

    2. Locate and open the folder starting with 7z (example: 7zS2356) (if there is more than one, choose the most recent folder)

    3 open the Util folder

    4 open the CCC folder

    5. run the L3uninstall.exe (can also be a .bat file)

    6. once the uninstall is complete, restart the computer

    7 run the Accessories\ System Tools Disk Cleanup

    8. download and install the latest version of Adobe flash player

    http://www.Adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html

    9 download full feature software and drivers of my first message above

    10. run the download and reinstall the printer

    Please let me know if this is useful and what is happening!

  • HP Photosmart C5180 all-in-One Printer

    When I print a pdf file (which has a postal bar code US) using the Player Microsoft Corp Version 6.2.92500.20523 on my computer Windows 8 Pro. The number of 16th and 17th on the barcode printed on each other. Even if it seems perfect on the screen of the reader.

    When I use my Windows XP Home Edition computer, using Adobe Reader XI Version 11.0.2 to print the same file, the bar code is printed correctly.

    Is this a problem of printer driver on the computer Windows 8 Pro? How can I fix?

    I bet it's a problem with the way that the Microsoft Reader is coding the print job.  Install Adobe Reader and it should print well from there.  Let me know what happens.

  • HP Photosmart C5180 all-in-one: c5180 has to be reinstalled every day

    Most mornings I have to reactivate my printer by removing the USB cable and re - insert. This triggers an installation which results in multiple copies of the printer in the printers section in the Panel. It also means that I have to re - route on the new printer in the print and print with Vista dialog box. I solved this problem in the past, but I can't find the solution.

  • HP Photosmart c7280 all-in-One vs. Windows 7 32 bit Home Premium - will NOT PRINT!

    I recorded more than 6 hours trying to get this thing to print.  It does not print.  Tried the wireless, USB, Ethernet, NOTHING!  My laptop Lenovo detect it when I plug in the USB cable, downloads, everything he needs, it's good to go, without errors, convenience store can not find something.  When I try to print something, the printer icon appears in the taskbar, but when I scroll over it, it says '0 documents pending' then it disappears eventually.  The only thing that I could print are the test page & page of the HP Toolbox diagnostics software help page.  When I try to print from any other program, it will not be printed.

    I downloaded and installed all the patches, updates and even reinstalled the software that is supposed to be compatible with WIndows 7.  I'm tired, I'm in a bad mood, I'm about to give up AND do what they hope, I'll do and just buy a new printer.

    I browsed all the forums here and done everything someone suggested.

    Have you installed the driver http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=3204785&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&lang=en&cc=us star
