Is it unusual to buy a printer without a USB cable being supplied with it?

May 29th, 2013 7 comments

I’ve just bought a new HP deskjet printer but there’s no USB cable with it. Would you expect a USB cable to be supplied with your new printer? It’s too late to bring it back to the shop so I’ll have to wait until the morning.
Hey Jeebus, I’ve just bought a brand new printer. The least they can do is give me a USB cable to go with it!

i also purchased a new HP deskjet and the sales person said the USB cable was extra, my blood pressure was going up and i replied " would you buy a car with only 3 wheels" no he said. got the cable 🙂

How do you reset the printer cartridges for HP Deskjet D1420?

April 10th, 2013 7 comments

I have a HP Deskjet D1420 and I have refilled the cartridges (HP 22 and HP 22). The printer continues to read them as low or empty and will not print properly. Does anyone have a hack to reset the printer or printer cartridges to either read full or not read at all.

If you want to trash your printer, refill your printer cartridges. I have repair printers with refills cartridges, they just leak ink all over the place. Plug up your print head and sometimes you get ink smears because the ink does no dry right. In other words, you do not save any money because you ruin your printer.

Other cheap solution is to purchase out date cartridges, they still work just fine for me. On some printer cartridges have IC which needs reset by special machine when you refill your cartridges.

How can I make our printer’s prints as normal as it was once before?

We’re using HP Deskjet 656c printer. It ran out of ink and it to0k some time before it got refilled again. When it was refilled, the prints aren’t as bright as it used to be. How do I fix this?

When you refill any cartrdige, the print is never as sharp as the original ones. Check the printer preference and make sure that the quality is set to normal or BEST. If that doen’t incerease the sharpness, then replace with the original cartrdige and save yourself the headache.

How can I use my printer without installing the CD to my laptop?

I have a HP Deskjet 3745 printer and I want to print something but I lost my CD to install the printer to my new laptop. Is there a way I can use the printer without installing the CD?

Some printers come with self install software or just work anyways. Plug in the usb cable, wait to see if anything pops up. I just have to connect the comp. and printer with usb and I’m good to go. Hope this works for you.

Why is my printer not printing the correct colors?

March 8th, 2013 2 comments

I have an HP Deskjet D4260 printer with pretty full cartridges. I have the latest HP drivers for this printer. It prints just fine, except for the fact that the colors are off.

Black is grayish blue, red is really dark, yellow is light brown, orange is dark brown. However, pink, purple, blue, green, and gray seem fine.

Is there some way to fix this by changing the printer’s settings, or is it a problem with the cartridges? It says the ink levels are high, but could something be physically wrong with the cartridges somehow?

Try running a printhead cleaning from the tools menu of the printer. It sounds like the ink may be bleeding over from the other colors.

Are you using refilled cartridges by any chance? This is one of the risks you take when using non-OEM cartridges. Cross contamination of the colored inks could definitely be a cause of the color errors.

What is wrong with my HP Deskjet 1320 printer?

March 3rd, 2013 2 comments

The printer has recently been re-installed with drivers downloaded off the internet, and the ink has just been replaced. However, nothing will print. When we go to print a test page, it shoot outs a blank piece of paper. Every now and then a document will print, but won’t print again on the second attempt. It’s an HP Deskjet 1320 printer plugged into the computer with a USB cable. What do we do?

Was the ink you put in new ink? Or had you had it for awhile? Sometimes older ink you haven’t used will be affected by moisture, so if this is the case, go buy new cartridges. You can also try unplugging anything connecting the computer and printer, and the shutting your computer down, plugging everything back in, and restarting your computer. Try opening the front cover of the printer and making sure the ink cartridges roll out so you can see them in the middle of your printer. Print a page while you have it open and make sure that they are moving. If none of this works, call a specialist.

How to install my HP printer without using the provided CD?

February 23rd, 2013 5 comments

I just bought a new HP printer (Deskjet Ink Advantage 2010 – K010a). My CD drive isn’t working, so I was thinking, is there a downloadable installer for my printer? Please provide specific details. Thanks!

P.S. My computer has Windows 7 Home Premium, 32-bit.

you can download the installer from the hp website, all you have to do is type it into google, although if you are not bothered by all the extra useless features that they throw into the program and all you want to do is print, then you should be able to just connect the printer to your computer and it will work. Windows has many printer drivers preinstalled.

Here is a link to the drivers and software to download. (If you want the software)

February 19th, 2013 2 comments

I have a Dell Inspiron mini 10" laptop. I need to know if it would be compatible with the Hewlett-Packard deskjet 1500 printer? If they are not compatible, is there any equipment or software I will need to make them work together?
Sorry, the printer is HP deskjet 1055. Is HP deskjet 1055 printer and Dell Inspiron mini laptop compatible?

Its not the computer that is compatible with a device its the operating system.

I have a HP Deskjet 812c printer hooked up to an HP computer that runs Windows Vista. We went through the installation process and all, but the printer does not print anything that is from an Microsoft Word or Excel file. It will print anything that comes from the internet, and yes, I have tried sending it to my e-mail and printing from there!! Any trouble shooting tips would be greatly appreciated!

try to observe this
you must have to choose the printer when the print window appear>>>
take a good look in the brand and model you choose it must be exactly HP Deskjet 812c then print
because not all the time the printer you are using will be setted as default one i mean automatically chosen as your printer that will print your file.
