slow or no printing on HP PSC 950 xi

I have a psc 950 xi only recently started to print VERY slowly, or not at all.  An impression can take 10 minutes to complete.  I tried the diagnostics HP, uninstalled and reinstalled the software, unplugged and replugged in the printer... nothing seems to help... Help!

This is caused by the failure of one of your cartridges.  If you have a replacement cartrdige (or even an old cartridge out of ink) try replacing first black then the color cartridge.  Remove the cartridges and clean the contacts as described here can also help.

To be more precise, it prints the first 1/4 of the document, then throws the rest of the white paper. My PC is connected via the USB port on my printer.

  • How do I change computer to use only the black cartridge for print on PSC 950 h

    I'm having a problem with my hp psc 950 printer - when I try to copy something it gives me an error to support code on enter to align cartridges-i do this and it is not always copy - how can I change the printer to use only black ink, the color cartridge is probably more good, I just changed black ink and I really don't need the color in my copies - all solutions would be greatly appreciated

    Thank you

    Hi yalulu,

    I understand that you do not use the black cartridge only. I find the features page and the manual for the PSC 950 but did not find that I was looking for. I would suggest trying to use the printer in mode single cartridge, but I am not sure if the printer supports this feature, that's what I was looking for.

    Try out both cartridges, then put in black only. If this does not work, the only other suggestion I have is to replace the color cartridge.

    You can use the below document to troubleshoot color cartridge, select the document that best describes the issue, or take a look at the same time. You can find these useful.

    I hope this helps to solve the problem you are experiencing.

    Take out the toner cartridges.

    Wait for 30 seconds

    Plug the power cord into the printer and the wall (be sure that the printer is plugged into the wall and not a surge protector)

  • PSC 950 pilots searched for Win98SE

    HP is not compatible Windows 98 anymore, so I was wondering if anyone had a driver for my printer for Windows 98 Second edition.

    Oops, sorry for this topic.  I don't like not really the scam "driver detective posing as an update of the driver".  I checked here and I still have a version that CD 1.0 by flying over my PSC 950 I gave away years ago.  If you are in the United States as the CD send me a private message with your address and I'll send it to you, free of charge.

    Unable to print on HP psc 1350 all-in-one of iMac (OS 10.6.8) but capable of scanning; also able to print other printers connected to the same computer.  The printer is connected directly via the USB port and I downloaded and installed software for printing on Mac using OS 10.6.  Shows the impression that labour is on hold whatever program originating the print job.  The State of the 'mistake' poster print job, but there is no information about error numbers or other details of the error.

    If you are using Snow Leopard or Lion and you have the HP software before Snow Leopard (either from a CD not marked as compatible with 10.6 or you recently upgraded to Snow Leopard or Lion and had the software HP on your Mac before you upgrade - even if you made a standard from the old software uninstaller or installed new software on top of it) , you must uninstall the software by using the "scrubber":

    Highlight your device in the left pane
    Press and hold Ctrl + Alt + Cmd keys on the keyboard at the same time as you click on uninstall< this="" is="" the="" scrubber="" option,="" there="" is="" no="" button="" labeled="">
    There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall all hp software. (At this point, if you continue, all HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    Click on continue and let it finish

    Restart your Mac

    Now reset the printing system:

    -Sys Prefs, Print & Fax
    -Right (control) click inside the box that lists your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - This will remove ALL your printers!
    -Select the sign + to add again. Search for the printer, select it, and wait until the button 'Add' becomes available. Until it clicks.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 - Print margins are off, slow and noisy printing

    I have problems printing my printer HP Officejet Pro 8600. When I am able to print the process is extremely slow and the printer made a lot of noise before and during printing. In addition, the margins are off compared to those on the document itself. The left margin is so great that it is cut a part of the document on the right side. I tried to unplug and restart the device and it is set back to the factory, but the questions remain. I printed a test page and it looks good, but speed, noise and margins continue to be a problem. How can I fix these problems?

  • Aligning the print cartridge HP PSC 1500 series printer

    I just installed a new ink cartridge and try to align. When I open the HP PSC 1500 Setup page, it gives me the option "align cartridge". When I click on it it opens a dialog box titled 'printer properties '. There is no information on how to align the cartridge.

    Thanks for your reply. It didn't really solve my problem. As I've mentioned before, I tried to get the 'how' info from the HP PSC 1500 series control page that displays a link to "aligning the print cartridge. By clicking on this link opens a dialog box that has nothing to do with the alignment of the cartridges. It was not very useful, but eventually, I remembered what I had to do was insert the alignment sheet and press "scan."

  • Printing problems HP PSC 1210 since upgrading to Windows 7

    Hello

    Unfortunately, I have major problems since upgrading my PSC 1210 previously hassle to Windows 7 Professional (32 bit) on a Dell Latitude laptop.

    1. connect the USB cable from the system causes to restart almost 100% of the time. (Start with her already plugged the same result.) If it restarts not who does not necessarily mean that it will print. Although the USB connection is identified, the document does not print and gets stuck in the queue; by selecting either restart or cancel in the print queue does not delete it. Or turn off and unplug the printer. I have to restart my computer for him to clear, but it still doesn't work. Also, it gets stuck when I choose to print directly to the printer. More recently, I've only managed to print after closing of all the HP of the process in the Task Manager. (The same problem with restarting forced to plug in the USB cable happens sometimes when the analysis rather than printing).

    2. on the occasions I manage to do print documents, does not print black cartridge, despite having just replaced the cartridge and the perflecty black print on the test page.

    I hope you can help because it's incredibly frustrating and tedious, and I really prefer is not to have to replace what was until what Windows 7 a perfectly good printer!

    Thank you
