It's pretty tight in the side of the printer where the logic (circuit) board sits. I'd only recommend this for people who aren't too scared of taking things apart. Apparently a dead CMOS battery can cause this problem. There are also videos on Youtube which show this.Ħ. As shown on HP's webapge, and also a video hosted by HP.com. You can see this in HP's documentation on their website about resolving this error. Note that HP's documentation states you sometimes have to do this 3 or even 4 times for it to take effect. Reinstall the printhead, and reinstall the ink cartridges. Remove the ink cartridges, then remove the printhead.

Cleaning with anything other than water is NOT according to HP's instructions.ĥ. Some people use their own formula made of alcohol and original Windex. Others perform this step with commercial inkjet cleaner formula. HP's video tells you to do this with warm, distilled water, which is gentle so presents lower risk, but water doesn't always unclog the inket nozzles to fix the problem. If you want to do this the way HP recommends, read the instructions linked above, or watch HP's own video detailing the process. Inspect the carriage path for obstacles (as per webpage linked above).Ĥ. Clean the gold electrical contacts on the ink cartridges, and clean the contacts on the printhead, that connect with the ink cartridge. I shake them to listen for the liquid inside.Ģ. Make sure you're using cartridges that have not dried up/clogged, and that still contain wet ink. Some steps involve (minor) risk of damaging the printer if you're not careful, or don't follow instruction carefully.ġ.
