Photosmart C6180 problem of Power-Up/Power-Down - loops on/stop/start/stop etc.

I had the C6180 Photosmart wireless connected to a Mac OS X 10.5.6 laptop Macbook Intel and IBM PC XP SP 2 for more than 2 years.  I did have major problems with the printer.

Recently, I have known a couple of electric in my house.  Since then the printer has turned off randomly once or twice.  Today the printer began to turn off/on/off/on/turned off/turned on etc.

It lights up and shows the HP logo and process bar animation for one minute, followed by the message: "abnormal termination.  To avoid damage on the button to turn off the printer.  Do not use a wall or the band switch to close.  Press OK.  Then he stops and leaves upward.

I tried to enter batch Mfg mode by organizing the * and # keys.  It flashes "Mfg commands - enter special Key Combo" for the second of two, then stops and makes a loop on/stop/start/stop again and again.

I have disconnected all data cables, installs the printer in another room, closes the wifi on both computers and connected directly to the wall on a different circuit to eliminate problems of low power as the culprit.  I swapped the power cable between the wall and the block of the AC adapter with the same exact type of cord of another piece of equipment with the same results.

I wonder if it is a symptom of a surfboard logic damaged in the printer, or a problem with the AC adapter?

If it is the logic board, does pay to get it fixed?  An equivalent printer for Mac would cost about $200.  Not to mention that I came just to have stored on cartridges.

What is a likely indication of a problem of brick AC adapter?  If so, should I spring for a replacement block AC adapter for $30?

I was not able to find this question in a post on the forum and I was wondering if it's 'Au revoir' to the C6180?

Thank you for your contribution to this number

Try this:

1. If the printer is still on, unplug all rigid and flexible cables at the back of the printer.

2 unplug the power cord also from the wall...

3. wait for two minutes.

4 reconnect the power cord to a wall outlet first.

5. hold the pound (#) and six 6 buttons.

6. all by pressing the two buttons, reconnect the power cord to the back of the printer and at the end of two seconds, exit book and six buttons.

7. turn on the printer if it goes out...

Let me know the results.

  • OfficeJet 4620 wants to power down, but won't start button / stop

    Most of the time the printer/scanner works fine, but sometimes it "sulking" and wants the power off, but won't the power button.

    I have a switch in the extension cord to the electric line which I use in these moments there (better than pulling the plug?).

    When the current is applied again the printer usually goes back to work.

    Sometimes he blames me for not using the power button - I really try that and generally goes back to work when I promise to do better in the future.

    Yet at other times, he wants the power cut off, even once.

    The printer is connected to the router via wifi.  Two computers are connected by ethernet to the router using Windows XP or Linux (via hplip).  One or more laptops can be connected to the router using Win7 or Linux (via hplip) wifi.

    The printer was working fine a few days ago, nothing happened that may have caused damage that I know.

    Nice day

    How to solve the problems of windows 10 shut down (power, lighting the keyboard is always on)?

    with regard to my question above. I need to hold the button of power for 5 seconds to completely shut down my laptop. even restart or sleep does not work well. I upgraded a real victory 8.1 to 10 free victory by that windows app reservation offered. IM using acer aspire v5 - 573 g i7, version gt750m, Finnish keyboard

    solutions, I tried to random searches that did not work for me.
    1 unchecking quick stop to power options
    2 disabling hibernation in cmd (types a code forgot what I have)
    3. update all drivers and bios with sites acer official drivers, driver pack solution 15.8 and utility driver update intels
    4 decommissioning intel management engine components driver 11 to 9.5
    5. go to the bios and reset to the default settings
    6 make a shortcut of "shutdown" with codes e.g. shutdown /s /t 0
    7. click Update stop

    IM thinking of reinstalling windows 10 via recovery which removes applications, files, drivers, etc. and hope this solves. I can't roll back to win 8.1 because ive done this reset before you completely clean out my system of win random 8 and trashes the restore option was gone.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello/Hallo wuschel93,

    exactly what I had. Stop number appears only after a certain time the laptop running.

    The problem is INTEL MANAGEMENT ENGINE RELATED V.11!

    I fixed it with uninstall Intel Management Engine Version 11. Windows will then install version 9.5 automatically. After that I turned off the automatic update of the driver for this device. You can also install 9.5 without uninstalling the old one, it wil crushed.

    Other manufactures also have this problem, but while Acer is still asleep, they provide a solution (including download links):

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-operating-systems-and-software/sleep-and-shutdown-issues-after...

    Maybe there are any other issues that result in the same problem. But in most cases, it's the answer. The thread Starter maybe forgotten to disable the automatic driver update or made installation of v9.5 evil?

  • Power down, windows 7 sets the Verr Num led on just before turning off

    I have a Fujitsu 101/102 PS/2 keyboard connected on a 64-bit windows system 7.

    Recently, my motherboard has failed, and I installed a new motherboard, where I had to do some basic recovery for windows 7 to come.
    Because then I find that when I turned off the system, during the eve of the sequence, when I get the screen power off mode, the indicator (Led) NumLock on the keyboard is turned off first, and then just before that the system turns off the Num Lock Led is lit once again and of course remains on until I then use my PC.
    I would like to get a solution to this problem.

    The State of the Num Lock is determined by the BIOS during POST (Power On Self Test). It is not defined by Microsoft during the power down, but the BIOS of your computer can trigger the light briefly during a stop.

    If you enter the BIOS of your computer during the power upward (F4 maybe?), you should be able to find a framework that governs the State of the NumLock at startup. Change this option to what you want and save your output settings.
    The BIOS settings are retained by EPROM chips on your motherboard, which explains why things have changed with a new motherboard.
  • Iomega home media hmnd2 becomes inaccessible after a power down

    Hi all

    I have a hmnd2 that I had for years. After that a recent unexpected power down I no longer accesses through my home network. Ping the ip address returns no response. white light on the front is on and I can hear it running, but I have no access. at startup, I hear a form of slight movement of the hard drive, but then it goes quiet. I tried the reset button, but no luck. also tried through the usb at the back. My Network senses there is something out there but can not load a driver (and so it remains inaccessible).

  • My new S2440L face the problem of power outage

    I have just purchase S2440L to replace my old S2340L. With S2340L, I have never have any problem of power outage but when I plug my new S2440L, it was goes black for a few seconds. The problem was random 10 minutes to 40 minutes. These two monitor was same HDMI cable (and work fine on my SmartTV too), PC same and even graphic card driver. I try to reinstall a fresh driver but still a problem. Is - it could be hardware related? Perhaps S2440L have a hardware problem or a S2440L need a more specific HDMI cable? Now I have any problem with my S2440L. the blackout has been occur when overheating circuit behind the monitor. I was watching about about on the HDMI port of overheating by googling and found that HDMI can fail if the (amplifier HDMI) circuit was overheated (I'm not have overheating issue on my old S2340L (rev.) A00). i sure as S2440L (mine is rev. A01) have material problem on HDMI and circuit surprise (lower part of the monitor) have very high temperatures. I hope you, Dell will be it is your responsibility that your monitor, S2440L have an overheating problem / high temperature and could be a HDMI port blackout curtains. It's bad for me avoid this problem by using the VGA port.

    Thank you, ChozeriZes.

    Christ

    I just touch the border smaller surface compared to the top edge, it is very hot.

    maybe only my S2440L have this problem...

    Today, I remove my VGA card and the power cord, and reinstall the whole again, the problem in black often seem to not like it before summer. It's just a couple of times for that day.

    Actually I feel fine with this monitor, both design and image, but still nervous about high temperature, it's may be the major problem in the long term.

    Maybe I was too early to conclude everything... HDMI is a very sensitive matter, as I said in a previous comment, then I have some tests for my S2440L

    -overclock grid power my VGA card around 2% and delete some fan of my system.

    -find the new place for the power adapter avoid the heat. (I found this use of monitor LG IPS 1. 3a adapter 19V is perhaps)

    Note: I use 750W Seasonic and power supply of 5V and 12V is pretty good (5.1V and 12.05V).

    OK, now I need to close this thread as solved and and report this problem like power supply problem; in major relate.

    "on monitor blackout curtains when use the HDMI port occurs when power on unstable system will also be able to rack in the House, heat and cable must use HDMI1.4 full spec for sure (if HDMI cable does not include with the package).

    I've had my palm tx for 3 years now and I have had some problems with it.

    The warranty on a TX is only 1 year from the date of purchase.  Yours is way past the period covered.

    The switch was a small part of the TX.  Pressing any other button will turn on the unit, and it will turn off let it expire.

  • HP Photosmart C6180: hp photosmart c 6180 turns off when it is connected to the network and blinks green photo

    When my Photosmart C6180 is related to two wireless and ethernet network after any number of hours it stops itself down and the green light on the front panel by the icon of camera flashes.  You will then have to push the power button to turn back.  Not very practical for a network printer. Router is a Linksys WRT 1900 ACS.

    Hi wjabdella,

    Thank you for your answer!

    In the post I provided on the hard reset, he mentioned: sometimes, when plugged into a surge protector or battery backup, the quantity of electricity is not received by the printer.  Power problems can cause printing problems.  It is particularly important to be plugged directly into a wall outlet with wireless connectivity problems, "sleep mode" and other power problems.

    So by unplugging the power and waiting, it resets the printer almost to its original state without making a complete factory reset and lose any other information.

    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 hope that answers your question!

  • HP Photosmart C6180 Magenta Ink not printing

    error message: no

    description of the problem: Magenta Ink not print not EXCEPT on the page that prints after aligning the print cartridge printing is performed. At the bottom of this page, the bars of yellow, Cyan and Magenta print perfectly, just like the mixture of the color shown in the colorful bird printed below the bars.

    Self Test Diagnostic Page is printed with bars No. Light Magenta or Magenta, under print quality model. State of ink and level for both shows like OK magenta and 100%

    Troubleshooting: I ran repeated cycles of head cleaning and aligning the print cartridge print without changing the output. The page that prints after cleaning has NO magenta bars or lines. Seems the page that prints after alignment. Via e-mail support, I was directed to perform a complete reset "semi" and "the NVM reset" - neither of these had no effect. Magenta inks have been replaced, but the problem persists.

    Exchange: the printer had not been used for several months.

    My printer started working. It had been disconnected and sitting for several months. I turned it to try the HP solutions (below) and found that it worked - I had nothing to do!  In any case, I hope this can help some of you with similar problems:
