Photosmart 3180 prints the worksheet to test each time it is turned on

Once a black ink cartridge failed, I tried both black cartridges HP no and neither worked and now put in a HP92.  This works.  Since the first wrong cartridge has been the printer prints the complete test page whenever it is turned on.  Is there a way to prevent it from doing this?

Hi Len77,

Welcome to the HP Forums!

I understand that your HP Photosmart c3180 prints a test sheet whenever it is turned on.

Please take a look at this guide. An alignment Page prints whenever the all-in-one is turned on or off, or a print job is started.

Hope to hear back, and have a great day!

    The alignment page will print until it completes successfully.  Try print a page of diagnosis as on the Six Solution on this page. Do all color printers correctly?  The alignment will fail if the parties in black and color do not print correctly.

  • Pro8000 prints the alignment page after each print job

    I replaced by a black ink cartridge and printed an alignment page and did a print head cleaning. Now, an alignment page prints after each print job and cycling the printer off, then on. I turned off the printer and unplugged the printer and restarted the computer and still get the same results. I then took each cartridge and reinstall each cartridge and still the same results. I reinstalled the old ink cartridges and still the same results. Running out of paper, maybe cut down another tree. Any help would be apprecaited.

    Hi tommy61944,

    I understand that you have a 8000 Officejet Pro which prints an alignment page after each print job. I'm sorry to hear what is happening, but I'll certainly do my best to help you.

    I would suggest you have a look through this Alignment Page printed each print task, specifically the three Solution: print and evaluate a page impression diagnostic quality. Fact the print look page like the one in Figure 10: print a Page of Diagnostics quality? If not, that's why it keeps printing an alignment, a color can be print not correctly, or will need to be replaced. If your ink levels is all good, so maybe it's the printhead (s). You can clean the print heads manually and remove any buildup that could cause problems.

    Hope this helps, have a nice day!

  • PSC 1350 prints a page of test every time he gets on' "

    PSC 1350 father prints a test page whenever he gets on' ', waste of paper and ink, and it drives me crazy whenever I come to visit!  Is there a way to disable this feature?

    It is currently under Vista Home premium on an HP desktop computer, but I think he has had the same problem when using XP on an old computer.

    The 'test page' has "to get the best quality, follow the steps using this sheet" printed in English in the top left of the page and printed in 8 other languages. Below is a series of three stages of instruction photos, one-third is a finger pressing a black button at the bottom of the row of buttons.  The rest of the page, about 2/3 of the page, is a series of black, grey and yellow lines.

    After printing the map must be loaded into the scanner and you press the button as shown on the sheet to complete the alignment process.  When the alignment is complete, it will not print another page of alignment until the next time that a cartridge is replaced.

  • Why Firefox keep loading with the Add-ons Manager each time? I disabled all extensions and themes with nothing will do, loaded in safe mode, etc.

    As noted, google it and saw that it is supposed to work if you disable extensions to see if you have a problem (he was not) and use the default theme, it is supposed to make them disappear. Even ran in 'safe mode '. Yet, EACH TIME it loads the add-on Manager. Should I re - download?

    Do NOT reinstall Firefox. Think it fixes the problems, but it isn't really.

  • Problem with the HP Officejet Pro 8500 printer: clean the print heads each time it is turned on

    Hello everyone,

    the printer HP all-in-one Officejet Pro 8500 (A909a - product n. CB022A) clean the print heads whenever I turn it on. This problem affects any HP Officejet Pro 8500 printer, it is not a problem only of this one I bought. It is a boring bug and annoying because each power clean print heads on involves two bad disadvantages:

    1. waste of ink (each heads cleaning process consumes little ink);
    2. too much time (2-3 minutes) to prepare the printer after plugging.

    I upgraded my printer with the latest firmware available on the HP site (firmware ver. DLM1FN1006BR), but the bug is still present.

    At this point, I ask:

    1. There is a way (or procedure) to disable automatic cleaning this useless to all power on?
    2. Can we communicate with the HP engineers or tell me how to contact directly one of them to indicate the bug and request a new firmware updated?

    Please don't tell me to leave the printer on all the time or that the printheads to each cleaning power is normal behavior! Where then are power and ink savings claimed for this printer model?

    I hope that a solution to this problem. Thanks in advance to everyone will help me!

    Maintenance when the printer is turned on is normal and is required to keep the printheads in good health (not blocked). See here for more information.

    With respect to energy savings, the printer automatically goes to low power mode when the don't feel not for awhile.  It is not necessary turn the unit on to save energy.

  • K5400 prints the alignment page after each document

    I have a HP Officejet Pro K5400, which insists on an alignment page printing after each document.

    It's on Windows XP Pro SP3, if that makes a difference!

    I've tried everything I can think of to clarify this, but he persists.

    I know it's the printer, I moved and installed on another PC, and the error moves with the printer!

    Can someone tell me how to stop this, as HP don't seem to know!

    Excellent!

    Installation of new heads, (both for security), sorted!

  • HP PSC 1500 works only when I print the first automatic test.

    Hi Forum

    HP PSC 1500 all-in-one printer was working fine until I tried to print an email from a friend of his Yahoo email account. Hot flashes "check it out seeing the print cartridge" and it will not print.

    I discovered that I can print a page of any document that is not related to the original email account, as much as I first print a self-evaluation report. The light then it will start to Flash, and I need to print another automatic test before printing another page.

    I use Windows Vista.  Thank you in advance.

    Thank you for taking the time and effort to respond to two people. After trying everything that was proposed without success, I discovered a piece of something behind one of the cartridges. I replaced since the printer. Thanks again to all.
