HP Deskjet 842C: Printer cartridges stuck, wont move back to print location

Mon, 30 Oct 2023 15:58:20 -0700

Would love to ad a picture. When you install new printer cartridges they move to the right and then back to print mode when you close the lid. "They" are not moving back to print and "stuck" on the right hand side.

I love this printer and agree with the description you posted. I have extra ink cartridges so would love to fix the printer and keep using until my ink drys up!

HP Deskjet 2600: Paper Feed Fails Intermittently & Often

Mon, 29 Dec 2025 05:40:33 -0700

For the last few months, the paper feed often fails, for both print-from-computer and copy-at-the printer.

This HP 2655 is 4-years-old, has excellent print quality with no paper jams.

I’d like to fix the feed problem and keep this printer.

The orange out-of-paper light blinks, even though there may be one or several pages in the feeder.

This failure happens sometimes with the first page, and sometimes only after several have already fed and printed. It fails to feed more often than not.

Three things may help:

1. Sometimes, pushing the blinking light button once or several times starts thepaper feeding.

2. Sometimes, taking the paper our, fanning the bottom edges, and replacing it works.

3. Sometimes, tapping the top of the paper stack works.

All pages always, eventually, feed and print, but only after fiddling with the button and/or the paper in the feed.

The same failure happens using either HP’s recommended paper, or paper from Target.

Running HP Utility’s "paper feed cleaning" does not help.

Looking with a flashlight at the paper-feed area shows no problem I can see.

I’ve found no help on the HP website or from downloading the 128 page manual.

The display of my printer doesn’t light up at all. It used to show things like WiFi connection, and the paper indicator light would turn on, but we did put paper in the paper tray. We’ve plugged and unplugged the power cord many times, but it’s still the same.
