Photosmart all in one C5180

My printer displays error message: 0xc18a0101

Ink system failure. Can't seem to solve this problem. Any ideas? Thank you

Easy to fix (in many cases) and saves a lot of waste!

According to the local printer repair shop, it suits more often (I'm not sure why HP did post):

Printer HP C5180 all-in-One HARD RESET:

  1. Hold down HELP + OK button and unplug the printer (could experiment with the regular force, but I opted for the brute force)
  2. Hold down HELP + OK button again once you plug the printer back in. Then he put it on, if it is not running automatically. Be safe: hold the buttons until the printer turns off. (It took mine less than a minute.)
  3. Now you can release the keys and just the power back on. (I was holding my breath, but is not required).
    • I received an error message "stop a bad" since I unplugged it w / power off. After I clicked "OK", the printer was fine and didn't mind more. And now I can print.

  • HP PSC 2410 Photosmart all-in-one printer SLOW printing

    All of a sudden my HP PSC 2410 Photosmart all-in-one printer has started printing very, very, very slowly. If at all. It took almost 30 minutes (1/2 hour) to print only 1 page word document. I am on Windows 7 OS.

    Dialogue problems says everything is fine. An attempt to print a test page was even worse. He printed only the top 1/4 of the race and that it was illegible.

    I ran CrapCleaner, Norton full scan and I was able to print for about a day before the problem returns.

    Help!

    Hey Rainbow7000,

    I also had problems with copy. I noticed that the missing parts were color text or photos. There was no indication that the Tricolor cartridge was low or empty, but I replaced it in any case and VOILA... print is returned to normal and fine everyting.

    I would have thought there would be some am indicator when the cartridge is low, but it was not.

    Thanks anyway.

  • Unit Auto-duplex of PSC 2410 Photosmart all-in-one

    I bought a new computer that uses 7 (64 bit) of Windows operating system. I have attached a PSC 2410 Photosmart all-in-one printer. The auto-duplex feature is no longer available, manual duplex printing is available. When this printer was attached to the previous auto-duplex printer unit funtioned perfectly. Only change was to the old unattach & reattach again.

    This problem can be resolved or do I use the manual funtion?

    The duplexer must be activated as described in the "Vista/Wixndows 7 Duplex Printing Troubleshooting Guide".

  • HP Photosmart all-in-one C309a: need help Urgent! -HP Photosmart all-in-one problem C309a Incompatible cartridge - 564 and 862

    Hello everyone.

    I am a happy user of HP Photosmart all-in-one printer and for many years never had a problem.  I always bought new 862 cartridges and it worked fine.  Recently, a friend brought me to Singapore two new series of cartridges, but the owner of the store said this is the new higher capacity cartridges.  I said why not?  Even better, in fact since the printer is a guzzler of ink!

    This is, because I tried to install these new cartridges, I always get the message "Incompatible cartridge" after what, I can't not access the printer.

    Can someone help me solve this problem?  The cartridges are exactly the same, so I suspect its something to do with the chip?  I tried all possible methods such as the re-installation of the cartridges, remove the carriage and re-setup, cleaning the cartridge chip, etc.

    Since I'm brought this printer back from China to Europe, I really need to solve this problem otherwise I'm stuck without a printer.  These cartridges are not available locally.

    I would be grateful any advice!  Thank you.

    Your printer can use cartridges of 864. Unless you call HP and have them reset the printer to your new country, you live. Only then these cartridges can be used if you can find them on the spot. Call HP.

  • Not able to find driver Win 7 (64 bit) for printer "hp psc 2410 photosmart all-in-one. pls help

    While I insert the printer USB cable to the laptop, it runs the Windows Live Update automatically and fails in the final task, the installation of the driver. It says "hp psc 2400 series - has failed.

    Then I removed the USB cable, removed the device of "devices and printers", reboot the laptop and then tried to load the driver manually. But in the window "install print driver", I could not able to find the driver for my printer ' hp psc 2410 photosmart all-in-one ' for the operating system of Windows 7 Professional (64 bit) under the "HP" manufactured.

    Can someone help me get this printer driver to use the Win 7 (64-bit) operating system? Thank you.

    Thank you, Sean. It has not solved the problem. Instead, I got to know that this will work with the 'HP Deskjet 6980 series' pilot and his summer work after I chose that one through the configuration of the local printer.

    My printer has suddenly stopped working, of course, comes "incompatible cartridge". For the next two weeks, I tried everything I know and everything that I could find (even the Forum Support HP's.

  • Printer error 0x610000f6 General on Photosmart all-in-one C309n

    Whenever I print, I get a general printer error on my HP Photosmart all-in-One Touch Smart C309n; the error number is the same every time: 0x610000f6.  I have to press OK on the screen of the printer to empty before printing again.  Sometimes it will show all the work until the error comes up, but other times it will bring up the error after the first page, and I have to turn it off to get the rest of the print job done.  Help, please!  Thank you!

    The code you get is normally caused by an ink system failure, but those who won't let you push OK to get in front of them. Your printhead may be out. The print head would be out of warranty now, as is the printer, so the only thing you can do is to try to clean the print head. The document following the link will take you through the steps of cleaning and aligning the print head. The place in the document that tells you the following steps are labeled step 4 and step 5 under Six Solution in the document. If the message continues to rise, you may need to physically clean the print head. The steps to do this are in a post from Bob_Headrick. She is tied below the document mentioned above.

  • I need an installation CD replacement for Photosmart all-in-one C4580

    I lost the CD for my HP Photosmart all in one single C4580 and need to reinstall the printer to an old high-end desktop pc (2006)

    Any advice?

    Thank you...

    You are the very welcome.

    Why not download the software on another PC and burn it to a CD and then use the CD you burned to install the software?

    Or you can copy the file to a USB flash drive and install it on the PC using the USB key if the PC has a USB port.

  • Failed to get printer hp psc 2410 photosmart all-in-one to print in color

    I have a hp PSC 2410 photosmart all-in-one printer. I use it on a system windows xp, 32 bit.

    I went to make a copy in color on the printer and it gave an error on the black cartridge by saying that she does not recognize.  Had not changed or replaced the cartridges they were half full.  I tried to go out and reinsert the cartridge, but it did not work.

    I replaced it with a new one.  Error disappeared, but it now only prints in black and prints any color at all.

    Replaced the (full) cartridges with new ones, aligned and clean the printer started it twice, without change.

    Close the pritnter and computer, did it again, same results.

    Uninstalled and installed printer and software, same result.

    What could have happened?  Behaves as if it doesn't have a color cartridge.

    Here is a document for your printer who carry on Matt, missing or faded colours. This document starts and you then click on other links to documents based on your results from the troubleshooting performed. Stay with him and he will lead you to how to clean contacts and how to read the diagnostic report, once it prints.  I think that some steps are buried, so here a link to assess the self-test. Finally, here's a direct link to fix bad test models in the self-test report. I hope this helps. http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00048685
