Photosmart all-in-one HP C4480: printer will not print. Incompatible ink cartridges

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. I received a response from you, but it was a response to a problem that I didn't ask) now I'm in the never never land. This is the third set of cartridges that I have tried. They are all HP cartridges.  My computer is s3700f Slim line, my printer HP Photosmart all-in-one, C4480.     Thank you for any information you can help me on this aggravating problem.         Meiko

  • HP Deskjet all-in-one: HP Deskjet 3520 will not print black, period

    OK, I've lost my WHOLE day, searched forums, has done what others have tried, poste posted HP Facebook, doing whatever is humanly possible to get my printer to print in black. I ran the clean printhead, black ink changed TWICE new cartridges, reloaded drivers, reset the default open to the top of the printer and tried to manually clean the head after only 4 hours to do everything I can possibly do to get this junk to print in black. The printer is only a year old and the cartridges are freshly bought from the store. So, tell me what am I missing or is the printer ready to be stoned?

  • Printer HP Deskjet 3070 all-in-One - the IP address will not save

    Almost as if it won't save or flash memory.

    Please help someone.

    Thank you

    Bryan

    Hello Odbod22

    By turning the printer power switch will usually change the IP address, unless make you it static or unchangable. The reason for routers use a protocol called DHCP that tells it how to distribute IP addresses. So, it is not uncommon that address to change. To avoid this, you must assign a static IP address on the printer.

    To do so follow the link below and search for "Step 6" how to set a static IP address.

  • OfficeJet Pro 6978 all-in-one: OfficeJet Pro 6978 / will not download drivers

    I just bought this printer Office Jet Pro 6978, All In One Printer.  It won't let me download the driver listed in the steps to implement, it fails every time.  I tried to use the CD that came with it, it gave me a message "this computer's operating system is not supported."   So this printer will not work on my 64-bit?  Or elsewhere?  My computer is a HP.  Where can I find a download driver for this printer for my operating system?  When it prints, it prints a nonsense.  % beginprolog % beginresource: file and so on with such things.  I am at a loss... Any help would be great.

    Hello

    Sorry, but the printer is not supported on Windows Vista 64-bit.

    64-bit support is only available in Windows 7 or later operating systems.

    You can find the printer specs below:

    Vista 64-bit is not supported.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/product/HP-OfficeJet-Pro-6970-all-in-one-printer-series/8289585/model/11161264/document/c05061732/

    You must upgrade your operating system to a later version to use instead an OS 64 - bit, Windows Vista 32 - bit to insall or replace it with another printer, compatible with your operating system.

  • All-in-one Officejet 6700 Premium does not work when a cartridge is empty

    On my officejet 6700 Premium, I have had trouble since the magenta cartridge was missing.  I'm unable to print even if you select using black only, it appears on the screen that gives me the choice to order or cancel, it gives also this pop up if I try to scan documents to save to my computer and even trying to fax.

    I am currently using Windows 7 Ultimate service pack 1

    I am at a loss on it and a plan to buy a cartridge, but in the meantime all that I need is to use black and also to scan documents.  Is there a way around this issue?

    I'm sorry that you are experiencing this issue.

    You will not be able to print WITHOUT this magenta cartridge. Some printers (older models) can print certain colors without another cartridge in the printer. The reason why it is not printing because this magenta blends in with all the other cartridges to perform a true black.

    So if it was another cartridge, it would give you the same error message and do not print.

  • I can't go to my printer. It will not recognize the ink cartridges are full!

    My epson 7400 has not been used for 6 months. I cleaned and aligned the nozzles and it used 2 full cartridges. I installed new ink cartridges, and he says they are empty. Now none of the buttons work, it does not seem to recognize all commands. What should I do?

    Hello

    Turn the printer off

    Unplug the printer from the computer and the wall outlet

    Reinstall the cartridges

    Support all the ink cartridges until they snap into place to make sure that they are well housed

    Close the cartridge cover and push it down until it snaps

    Close the scanner

    Press on the Stop button to start loading of ink. It takes about 2 minutes.

    When the the light stops flashing and remains on, the ink load is complete

    Caution:

    Never turn off the Epson Stylus CX while ink is in charge or you'll be wasting ink.

    If the ink light flashes, press on the Stop button and lower all the cartridges safely

    Manually clean the print heads

    Plug the printer into the wall outlet and the computer.  Turn it on and try printing again.

  • HP Officejet 6700 premium all-in-one. The documents will not power automatic document feeder fax.

    I can send a fax from the glass, but when I try to fax multiple pages in auto document feeder it doesn't recognize, they are there and asks me if I want to fax the glass or ADF.  I click on ADF and says original place in the ADF, and press start.  I opened the compartment in front of the ADF and it is not stuck or dirty.  Help, please.

    Hi DLreportin,

    Thanks for the reply!

    In the software you wish to select Connect new printer. Not really sure why you were running the software again if I don't believe it was part of one of my suggestions.

    If I understand well after the steps of my above after you are still unable to make a copy through the ADF?

    Did you update the firmware, or connect the printer to the wall makes no difference?

    Please let me know it's going, and if you are still unable to copy after checking these two things and then I will consider a deeper reset for you.

  • software and star driver hp psc 1315xi all-in-One extracts full but will not load on xp sp3

    Can not find a way to get this to install. After extracting I finally found it in running %Temp%. Searching through all files and folders, trying to find the exe file. to get it to autorun, but was unsuccessful. I tried to install this on 2 different PC with xp pro sp3 but no luck.

    The solution below is from michael323 here in the Forums of HP's Support.  Make sure that you send Bravo!

    I think I have solved this problem.

    I have a PC Windows XP Pro (SP3) who has been affected by this problem.

    Immediately after that the window of 'extraction' went to 100% and closed, nothing happened.  The windows install/never display software.

    Whenever I tried it creates a log file that started with this:

    "Parsed command line: «.\Setup.exe".

    Using datfile: C:\DOCUME~1\xxxxx\LOCALS~1\Temp\7zS1293\autorun.inf

    # GetValueByLang (f-> c_str(), _T (Version), _T (LanguagesInthisCD) failed "

    System LangID = 1033.  mapped to ENU

    # The system language is ENU, but is not on our CD!

    There was other error messages after that, but they all come from lines 3 and 5.

    Something she prevented the installation program to recognize the language ENU files ARE present in this download.

    Comparing two PCs, a problem, and one that works perfectly, I saw that one who was not was AutoRun disabled through a registry setting.  I temporarily deleted this registry on the PC that wasn't and Setup launched and ran like he was supposed to.  Here are the first of this log from the same PC, a few minutes later, where the only difference was that I had removed the registry setting criminalized:

    "Parsed command line: «.\Setup.exe".

    Using datfile: C:\DOCUME~1\xxxxx\LOCALS~1\Temp\7zS1293\autorun.inf

    System LangID = 1033.  mapped to ENU

    We use the system of language = FRA, which is located on our CD!

    As you can see, the message "(LanguagesInthisCD) failed" (line 3) disappeared, and the line 5 (now line 4) shows that it has to recognize that the language ENU installation files are present.

    So if you encounter this problem, and you are comfortable with the system registry, here is how I got it to work on my PC:

    Start regedit
    Navigate to the bottom of this tree
    -HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    -SOFTWARE
    -Microsoft
    -Windows NT
    -CurrentVersion
    -IniFileMapping
    Below, find out if there is a key named "Autorun.inf".
    On my PC (the one with this problem) the value of this key has been "@SYS: nexistepas".
    If your registry database also has this, it may be the cause of your problem.
    In the left pane of regedit, do a right click on Autorun.inf and select "Rename" from the context menu.
    Change the name to something like "Autorun.inf.hold".
    Close regedit
    At this point, I restarted my PC, but I don't know if it is really necessary.
    I ran the downloaded driver file.  It extracted, and the Installer started out as it was supposed to.

    When it was done, I returned in regedit and renamed "Autorun.inf.hold" to "Autorun.inf".

    It is extremely frustrating for me, and (if you need it), I hope that this solution works for you.

  • HP photosmart all-in-one c309 displays "USB device not compatible" when there is no device connected?

    HP printer is offline and unresponsive, unable to close the error message.

    Hello

    It seems that the printer is always "registered" on the USB port. Go to hp.com, research of model of printer drivers and support tab. When he presents with the software for your version of Windows looking for the software to uninstall. It erases completely all vestiges of your printer from the system. You can then do a clean install of your printer.

    Let me know if this helps you.

  • HP PSC 2355 all-in-one: HP PSC 2355 will not recognize Windows Vista Home Basic

  • HP L7780 all-in-one stops abruptly print cyan ink - would - this software problem?


    Yes, I think that the print head is the cause. You try to run a few times to see if you can lead it.

    If you want to keep the other cartridge, put it in a lock back zip and place it in the refrigerator.

    Good luck
