Photosmart 8450 - "transport print cradle is stuck clear jam, then press ok.

AAACCCKKK!   "transport print cradle is stuck clear jam, then press ok" is the message I get.  I have no jams, I see.  I did a soft reset and a hard reset nothing helps.  Help

Thank you very much for your time, I know you're probably pulling your hair with all the snot and boo hoo...  But I solved the problem myself.  I'm not a fan, or I'm a computer nerd of 'wannabe '.  I've been in this business for 18 years and has 3 stores myself.

I certainly appreciate all the time you've taken this problem!  Congratulations are simply not enough!

  • Photosmart 8450: Photosmart 8450 duplex printing upside down with Win 10

    Hello

    I checked all the settings, tried to flip short side / long-side, reinstalled the drivers and still it prints on the back backwards! He worked well with Windows 7, but not Windows 10.

    Any ideas on what I can do to fix this?

    You can try a different driver.  The Deskjet 6840 driver is compatible with the Photosmart 8450 and also provides a number of additional printing options such as resizing and reflection.  To install this driver, follow these steps: go to the folder of devices and printers, right click on the Photosmart 8450, select properties from the printer, advanced, new driver, Next, Windows Update, wait a few minutes for the list to update.  Now, choose HP as manufacturer and select the driver HP Deskjet 6840 (HP), apply.  Then, select the general tab, printing options and set the default values you want, apply, OK.

    You want to disable automatic session opening, which may be why it behaves in this way.

    Go to System Preferences

    Go to security

    Under "for all accounts on this computer", place a check mark next to 'turn off automatic connection.

    In addition, I do not know if you set a password for the test account, but put something simple as 123 - just something / anything.

    Once that is done, choose log in the Apple menu, or reboot. This should bring you to the login screen where you can specify the account to enter.

  • HP photosmart 8450 printer: ink and toner issues

    It is an older printer that has 3 slots for ink - 97, 99, 100. The 100 is almost impossible to locate and the quality is questionable. Do I need to be able to print?

    Hi @jlou1,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you are having quality problems when printing with your HP Photosmart 8450. I am pleased to see that for you!

    According to page 22 of the user guidefor a better print quality, your HP printer recommend you install all retail print cartridges before the date indicated on the box.

    So, if you're looking for optimal print quality, then the answer is Yes, you will need this cartridge #100. You might be able to print without the cartridge, but the quality is perhaps not as good.

    Hope that answers your question and have a great day!

  • HP Photosmart 8450 printing error

    I have installed my HP Photosmart 8450 (using the hp site because I don't have my original installation disk) & whenever I try to print anything (including a test page) I get an error message...

    Or 'Printing on HP photosmart 8400 error series' "S in an error state" printer"" "

    My computers (laptop) operating system is: Windows8 (64-bit)

    I have already tried to "Troubleshooting" & installed the print/scan doctor & he did his work & said there is nothing to detect & I continued with the test & still can't print.

    I know the printer is working because I can put sticks of memory in the printer & print directly from the printer (no pc), but it seems that the computer & printer just are not interconnected

    Hi belleeyes,

    I did some research on these errors and found that they can be caused by cables that are not properly connected, corrupt, drivers, incompatible drivers, the printer settings, missing updates and problems with your printer. I recommend looking for defects found in the link below to fix the problem:

  • HP Photosmart 8450: Printer cartridges

    I have a HP Photosmart 8450 printer, which currently has 3 cartridges in it - 97 HP, HP 99 and 100 HP.  I have trouble finding the 100 HP cartridge, which is a gray Photo cartridge.  I do NOT use this printer for printing photos - I just use it for ordinary printing.  My question is "Is there another cartridge that I can use to replace the 100 HP?"

    Thank you!

    The 100 cartridge is used only for photo printing.  If you do not print photo I suggest remove the cartridge 100 and leaving this space blank.  For the best economy printing on plain paper, you will want to replace the cartridge 99 photo with a black cartridge 96 as well.

  • Photosmart 8450, I need all the cartridges printing black documents?

    The Photosmart 8450 printer can accommodate 3 cartridges.  I use this printer to print black-and-white documents.  I wonder if I can buy only a cartridge instead of the 3.  If so, what cartridge should I buy and where should I use?  Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    Unfortunately, you will need to buy all the cartridges AND you can configure only black & white print (in grayscale).

    Kind regards.

  • Photosmart 8250: 8250 printer does not print

    To turn on my 8250 printer, got the message "paper jam, clear and push OK" button. There is no jam. Then received message "stuck carriage of the printer, difficulty and press OK button ' transport was not stuck. Push OK, again got paper jam message. Push OK button once again, print carriage moves back and the paper roller oscillates about 30 degrees, front and back, forward and back, etc., then get message jam again. Unable to get the printer menu. How can I solve this problem?

    Hi @Baldy202,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see that you have problems paper jam with your HP Photosmart 8250 printer. I would be glad to help and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.

    I understand that the rollers move, but you still get the same message. I recommend that you take a flashlight and the printer of the give a look deeper inside, to see you will find an obstruction. This could also be the result of a mechanical failure.

    Due to the age of the unit, it seems that we have more access to documents of support for your printer.

    I would like to do a hard reset to see if that will solve the problem.

    • Let the printer and disconnect the printer cable and the wall socket for 60 seconds.
    • Reconnect the power cable to the output of the printer and the wall, and not a surge protector. This ensures that the printer is full on and can help this situation.
    • Make sure that the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (do not use a hub or a surge protector) This ensures that the printer is full on and can help this situation.

    Please use these documents as a guideline, they should be relevant:

    If you have completed all the above steps and your product still has a problem, service the product.

    Contact HP for service in all countries except Asia-Pacific.

  • HP psc 2210: clear jam on my hp psc 2210 all-in-one printer

    The lights on my printer and the message says: "open the door.  "Clear carriage jam, and then press ENTER.  I do not see a "jam", opened the door and press enter several times.  I still can not reset unplugged machine from one day to the next.

    I think the cartridges are "stuck" on the side of the machine and they are unable to drag in the middle.  Can someone tell me how to fix this jam?

    Would be very grateful for the help!

    Renee'

    Hi @sreneecesand welcome to the Forums of HP!

    I see that you are having problems with jam.  I would like to help!

    I recommend starting by remove (if possible) ink cartridges and perform a power reset the printer.  Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

    I would also say to following the steps outlined in this document:

    A display of the Error Message of "open door, clear transport jam, and then press enter" for HP PSC 2170 2100 and 2210 all-in-One Series Printer "

    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!
