I have an hp officejet v40 all in one printer and the cartriges wont align.?

I guess i am wondering if this is a fixable problem or is the printer shot? Thanks for your help!I have an hp officejet v40 all in one printer and the cartriges wont align.?
well, usually this problem is caused by one of two things...





1st possible cause - Not all the colors are printing correctly (cyan, magenta, yellow, black), hence it cannot allign itself since part of what its looking for isn't there. Check the allignment page that is printed. I think (I can't recall offhand) that the allignment page will have a green check mark on each line of print if it was successful in reading the page. Look for any lines missing a green check mark, or having a red x. If so, see if there is any color missing that you can tell. You should be able to identify cyan(blue), magenta(pink/red), yellow, and black colors. If you can't see one of these colors, then I would suggest replacing whichever cartridge is having problems (black or color)





2nd cause - There is on most HP units, a special sensor that looks at what the allignment pattern looks like after it prints. On these models, I have found that frequently, a small part has been broken off. The part in question looks like a little laser beam that comes out of the bottom of the carriage (the part that moves back and forth and shoots the ink onto the paper). When the allignment page prints, that laser shoots out and scans the printing to allign itself. The laser part is usually missing a piece of plastic, which is shaped like a lense to focus the beam. The 'lens' is typically sitting inside the printer and one of the tabs that hold it into place is broken, hence the lens falls out of place, the beam shoots out the bottom, but it isn't focused and the printer will not allign correctly.





I can't be positive you have either of these two problems, but these are the most common causes I have found for allignment problems on the HP multi-function printers.





Hope it helps! :)

4288 model in hp is a good model for printer and scanner all in one type?

i dont know about printer and scanner models in hp,is 4288 model is best for all purpose.....i want all in one model ,so i suggest this model...is this good model or suggest any other model which has all in one including scanner and photos and colour4288 model in hp is a good model for printer and scanner all in one type?
I haven't use this exact type or model of a printer but all I know is that purchasing a multifunction printer does not only save desk space in the office, it can also easily transform documents into digital format thereby reducing printing supply costs. The downside with this kind of equipment is iis high initial costs. The web site below is an online printer shop. You might want to check out their wide range of printers from brands including HP, Epson, Fuji, Xerox and Lexmark.

  • Is there a way to use my hp psc 1510 all-in-one printer wirelessly with my macbook?

    Call HP tech support and ask them.Is there a way to use my hp psc 1510 all-in-one printer wirelessly with my macbook?
    Only if it a wireless printer. If so you can set it up to print wire free. You will probably need help to configure the settings though. When you install the program it ask's you if you are printing over a network or if it hooked up with a USB cable. Reinstall the program and make the changes in the set up to start with.

    All HP printers have software and drivers to customize or calibrate the printers. After each cartridge is replaced, you should run the calibration settings as well as head cleaning and a test print before actual printing.Help! my hp printer printing out really bright!!! :S?
    go to hp.com and click on chat/email support. tell them your issue and they will either give you new drivers or a whole new cartridge that is if you are using genuine HP inks.
