  my printer hp photosmart c7280 all-in-one does not stop

  Hello! Welcome to the @Lukewp forums

  I read about how your printer will not turn off. My best advice would be to unplug it from the wall and let it sit unplugged for a minute or two.

  Try turning the power on to the top and see if this is useful, and if you can feed it to the wide by the power button.

• HP Photosmart C7280 black ink does not print

  I am really frustrated.  My printer has indicated that I needed a new black ink cartridge and I bought a new cartridge and put it in.  The level indicates that it is full.  However, when printing, it allows to print all colors EXCEPT black.  I did a self diagnostic Test as well as an alignment cartridges print several times to try to get the black to work, but to no avail.  It prints all other colors, but not black.  I took the black cartridge in a store to check it out and I was told that there is nothing wrong with the cartridge.  I have looked at all areas of technical support, but don't see any advice for this situation.  Has anyone that happen and what is my next step.

  I lived similar questions, then I tried step 4 on this page:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00635953

  Basically, I took the black ink cartridge, it has left on the desk with the printhead across the street for two hours, wiped it with a wet paper towel (not sure if this is necessary) and reinstalled. I printed a test page, then print a regular page - it was beautiful and my problem was solved!

• All-in-one printer, HP Photosmart C7280 range

  My scanner has stopped working.  It will scan approximately half of the page stops.  I tried to reinstall the latest version of the software from HP.com.  The scanner worked again for a short period, until the last update that has stopped working again.  The following error is displayed.  Error occurred during communication. Turn off and then unplug the unit, wait 60 seconds and plug in and power on.  Make sure that the power cord of the appliance and the cable are securely fixed. Restart the computer. Uninstall and reinstall the device.  4, [(0,12,80004005), (2,7,800400007), (3,7,0)] I tried all these suggestions, nothing worked.  Any suggestions?

  My OS is Windows 7 64 bit.

  It's the same problem as many, many users have reported.  I blame a software update earlier this year.  HP has NEVER adequately answered or solved this problem.  When I called the technical support they tried to sell me a new printer, saying the new printers is no longer used the HP Solution Center software.  I guess that means they are no longer suppor HP Solution Center software and do not wish to publish an update that resolves the problem.  It is certainly a problem of software, because works of fax and photocopy.

• Printer HP Photosmart C7280 all-in-one takes a long time to implement

  Does anyone else have the problem of the printer takes so long to recalculate or set up?

• Problem of compatibility printer PhotoSmart C7280 with Mac OS 10.7 (lion)

  my printer hp photosmart c7280 all-in-one will work with the new mac os 10.7 (Lion)?

  Hello

  If your HP Officejet 6500 has worked very well with 10.6, after that upgrade to the HP software Lion should continue its work, there is no need of updated drivers.   Have you tried that?

  second - if you have updated to Lion and removed the HP software before, make sure that the printer is turned on and connected to the Mac (usb or network), a few "Add printer" and go through the steps, the Mac check Apple software updates and download the latest driver HP for you.

  Hope this helps

• Impression of failure of communication with Mac Mountain Lion and Photosmart c7280

  I have flowed through many messages about the printing and problems of Mountain Lion (10.8.3) faults and cannot get the answer I need.  I use this printer (HP Photosmart c7280) very well with the Lion of mountain for several months now and just recently have had problems printing.  I can scan very well, but printing is another story.  I deleted the printer, re-installed, restarted, unplugged, replugged, reset the printing system, deleted and reinstalled the drivers, ad nauseam!  I don't know what the problem is.  I am connected with a USB cable.  I send a print job, it can get 30 to 67% of the way sent and start printing and then I get this error: failure to communicate: the computer is therefore more able to communicate with your printer. Turn off the printer, check your printer connections and look for errors in the printer and turn on the printer.
  Check the printer to find errors.

  I just tried to install the new driver and new hpprinterdrivers2.14 and they used to install.

  Today, I can't get more than one or two lines to print before it stops.  I don't know what else to try.  Help, please!

  Hello

  First make sure that the material can print without problems by printing a test page:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01448018

  In addition, have you tried plugging the USB stick on another free port of your Mac?

  Be sure to use a USB 2.0 standard, not longer than 2 m long cable.

  Make sure it is directly connecting to your Mac and not through a USB extention or a hub port on an Apple keyboard, which is not powered.

  So I recommend you try a different USB cable, then check any change.

• HP B210a Photosmart: not black not printing

  I read all the similar posts on this problem but still can not my black printing ink.

  I was to have absolutely NO problems printing, but needed to replace my cartridges.  Did, with the new ink HP 564, but now the black does not print.  I replaced the black with a new cartridge.  For the color ink levels are now less than half (from all the pages of diagnostics, impression I guess), the black is full.     I did everything what I can do. all instructions from HP, including soaking them head printing (only once).  I get the error 'ink system failure' and when I try to align the cartridges, it still fails.   When I reset the printer, I get error Oxc19a0013 and follow all the instructions to resolve the issue.   After all this, I resorted to buying a new print head, but I always meet the same problems.  Help, please.  Maybe it's time for a new printer thanks for any help.  It seems that it is a fairly common-HP problem can something to help?

  On a hunch, I turned everything off-router, modem, PC, printer.  Now, the prints in black, but the colors don't. The estimated ink levels are OK.  Copy and print are the same black only.  He keeps asking me to realign the print head, I already did several times.   What happens here?

  Hi @PB14,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  I understand that the black ink is not printing with your HP B210a Photosmart on Windows 8.1. I'm sorry to hear that, but happy to help!

  I suggest the following guides:

  1. Printer prints a blank Page or does not print black or color ink for HP Photosmart Plus e-all-in-one (B210a, B210b, B210c and B210e) printers.
  2. " HP printers -"Problem with print head","printer failure,"'Ink system failure,' or ' 0 x ' r a 'C2 '.... "Displays Message error.

• Photosmart C7280 all in one printer keeps giving me expired ink cartridge warning

  My Photosmart C7280 all in one printer Guard giving me expired ink cartridge warning.  The cartridge has expired, but I want to continue to use it as it still has ink.  Is it possible to turn off these warnings to be boring?  I can't print until I have to recognize them!

  @ CoolBreeze202 - I'm sorry that you are having this problem with the ink cartridges and the ink expiration error message.  You can try to clean the contacts on the cartridge and the contacts inside the machine to ensure that built up on the parts are not the source of the error message. Pages 163 and 164 of the user manual will show a manual cleanup process.

  I would also do a hard reset to the printer to try to clear the error message and return the printer to a known working state. No user settings are lost with a hard reset.  Here is a link that will show you how to do a hard reset on this machine.

• Photosmart C7280 prints not photo tray

  My Mac laptop upgraded to Lion. I tried to print from the photo on my Photosmart C7280 tray, but even if I chose the photo tray in the dialog box, it keeps printing from the main tray. I took out all the paper and it does not print. I've always had trouble getting the photo tray to work, but he used to get just to the right dialog box.

  This post for someone out there trying to select the photo tray in an iMac OS Lion.  I wanted to give you a link for your printer driver OS Lion and it does not exist, it seems.  This certainly explains the limited functionality.  The previous document was for someone who has the driver already installed.  In your case, it will never exist, at least that's my understanding.  Here is where I found this information , but I think that explains why you do not have this option.  Sorry for the limitation. I'm happy to help you so if there is anything else I can do or if that relate not you let me know, but I'm afraid that it will not be a way to print to tray photo from Mac OS Lion, if you're not in the driver.

• Printer HP PhotoSmart C309g print is no longer black text, graphics, etc.

  Hello:

  We have a HP laptop.

  We have a C309g wireless HP PhotoSmart all-in-One printer/scanner/copier.

  It has worked very well for a few years, until 2 days ago.

  It allows to print is no longer in black (colors and black Photo work very well).

  We have it removed... removed all ink cartridges, removed the cartridge caddy,

  clean the electrodes, replaced the caddy, installed 5 cartridges (all) new, etc.

  We went through the process of removing the cartridges, caddy, locking,

  remove the power cord, wait a few minutes, and then make the process reverse.

  When you turn on the printer, it does its auto-check/install and after about 4-5 minutes

  We said that the installation failed, the press the OK button.

  We went thorugh this process several times, and the facility has failed every time.

  In the past, installation of printer cartridges, cleaning, calibration... executed quickly.

  The printer will not print anything that is black, that he me a print from Word, Notepad,

  make a direct copy of the glass, etc... together, with the phone on or off, but it will not

  print anything in black standard.

  The colors and black Photo print correctly but the regular black does not.

  The output of the other 4 cartridges are sharp, crisp, etc..

  Anything... text, graphics, etc. in the standard black does not print.

  Any ideas.

  Thank you

  OK, I understand you have checked the vents and they were OK (or you clean them?).

  Have you run three rounds of cleaning of the façade?

  Did you soak the printhead?

  If you've done everything above, I've seen a few cases was a hard reset solves the problem.  To do this turn on the printer, then unplug the USB cable from the printer and then unplug the power cable from the printer for a minute.  Then replace the power cable and turn on the printer, then replace the USB cable.
