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.

HP Deskjet 2600: The printer is unresponsive.

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.

HP Deskjet 2600: La impresora funciona pero el rodillo no funciona

Sun, 21 Sep 2025 08:45:38 -0700

La impresora se conecta a internet y funciona bien pero al darle a imprimir el rodillo suena y gira pero no coge los folios.

The printer connects to the internet and works fine, but when you press print, the roller makes a sound and spins, but it doesn't pick up the paper.

HP Deskjet 2600: Old wifi doesnt exist. How do I connect my printer to a new wifi?

Sat, 06 Dec 2025 08:07:36 -0700

My printer is trying to connect to a wifi that no longer exists. When I hold the wifi and cancel button for 3,5,10 seconds nothing changes with the lights. lights are flashing, the blue wifi one goes just over half the speed of the white power flashing light. i turned it off on the button, then on again, not just the white light flashes with a '0' on the screen, every other animation has gone.
