My Hp Photosmart C3100 all-in-one says it's "Initializing" it will not stop.

I even unplugged, but it keeps going. I have Windows 7 64 bit. He went "off-line" (which is another problem) the other day so I turned it off and when I turned it on it showed the initialization on the screen and it has not stopped since.

I would try a Hard reset to the product. Here are the steps.  With the printer, unplug the power cord at the back of the machine and then unplug it from the wall outlet. Wait at least 30-60 seconds. Then plug the power cord back into the wall first. If the cord has a module to ensure that the light of the module. Then plug the power cord to the back of the printer. It should turn back in itself, but if not to use the power button to make it back on.  None of the settings will be lost on this reset so it shouldn't hit the printer offline. How is the printer connected? If it is wireless I was watching how far is the router of the printer. Some devices that operate on the same signal as cordless phones can interfere as well. Ideally, the router and the printer should be in the same room with no walls between them.

  • Problem with the HP Photosmart C7280 all-in-one printing. Ink system failure could not copy-

    I'm having a problem on my HP Photosmart C7280 all-in-one printing. The following message appears, this is what came on the screen of the printer: ink system failure has not not able to copy, receive faxes or print. Refer to the documentation for the printer error O.cl9a0007.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Hey Spider! First of all welcome on the forum.

    I recommend to remove all ink cartridges, disconnect the USB cable from the computer that connects to the printer and then turn off the printer completely by unplugging the power cord. Then, restart your computer. Turn on the printer but leave that he disconnected from the computer. After that he ended his power over the cycle forward and reinsert the ink cartridges in the printer and make sure their seat correctly.

    After you have all the cartridges in the printer correctly, then connect it to the computer. See if that fixes the problem. If not post back with no results.

    Thank you

  • HP Photosmart 5515 all-in-one undetected by the HP software, driver not found by Windows Update

    Hello

    I have Windows 7 64 bit and a HP Photosmart 5515.

    I had to reformat my PC, and when I tried to install the printer, Windows Update has acknowledged, but cannot find the necessary drivers, while the HP software has not found the printer or with the IP address or the host name.

    The printer is connected to the network and works perfectly (we are able to print on my wife's computer), but on mine, it is not possible to connect.

    I tried both the complete Software Package system:

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=MP-108875-3&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en...

    And the divers basic package:

    Is it possible to download a driver of "old school" so I can use it directly from the Device Manager in Windows 7?

  • HP Photosmart C5180 printer range: computer says it is printing, but will not be printed

    My printer was working fine until yesterday. The display shows 'printing', but nothing happens. I tried to turn it works, made sure I've had connections in place and give him a rest from one day to the next, but she still does not print. Thank you for your suggestions you have!

    Welcome to the HP community @fondyia,

    I read on how your Photosmart C5180 is no longer printing from your PC running Windows 10, and I want to help you get this resolved!

    I suggest first trying the steps described in this guide:

    Tip: Make sure that the printer is plugged directly into the wall, avoiding bars power and surge protectors. This ensures that the printer is full on.

  • HP C3100 All - In - One Photosmart: very old printer and drivers

    I know that probably the answer to this already, but here goes anyway. I have an old printer. HP all-in-One Photosmart C3100. He has just shot ten years old. I had some time after 2006, or at the least, it is the date indicated on the manual.  I just got a new computer to replace my computer that was about as old. I climbed up from XP to Windows 7.

    My printer, which works great, needs a driver and HP does not seem to do more. On their website, they say nothing more than ten years. I have no chance or is there anything else I can do?

    Thank you.

    However when I print I always get the message "Automatic two-sided printing Modual missing" and can cancel printing or select this option to print front.
