HP DeskJet 820Cse Printer Logo
Anonymous Posted on Feb 15, 2012

I just refilled the black ink in my HP 820Cse...now the cartridge assembly moves around and then violently slams into the left hand wall. Suggestions on how to repair that? Thanks!

The sheets were getting faded, so I refilled the ink reservoir. Once I reinstalled the cartridge, the print head started slamming around...yellow and green lights both blinking. Thanks for any help!

    Thank you for the folks who offered some ideas for my consideration. There are no visible scraps of paper in the paper path. Don;t know if WD-40 will help...the print head runs smoothly over the rod already. On this encoder thing...what is that all about and how do I check on that possibly being the issue? Again, thanks to all!

SOURCE: HP Photosmart C6100 All-In-One Printer stopped printing black ink

Please clean the print heads :

Press Setup up - Tools - Clean Print heads on the All-in-One.

If this does not resolve the issue , Reset the All-in-One.

Reset the All-in-One to the factory default settings by using these instructions:

1. Unplug the power cable from printer when the printer is powered on.

2. Press and hold OK and HELP buttons while plugging in the power cord.

If issue stil persists. Contact HP.

SOURCE: Printer Won't Print

I had the same problem all you have to do is in the left side there is a black sorta arrow looking piece. You have to get this back in alignment... There is a white wheel right across from it push the the wheel down till you get it to the top where there will be a triangle like cut out.. You then need to push the point of the black arrow like piece to the left of the wheel so it below the wheels level... This is what is causing the smacking noise it is getting caught on this black arrow like piece.

Print cartridges would not move to center when opening lid so that ink could be replaced

There could be a paper jam in the printer head clearning system. If the head cleaning system is not completing the cleaning motion cycle the carriage will not move the catridge to the centre.

Just installed refilled black ink cartridge on hp

By using refilled cartridges you will always have this problem. Each cartridge has a chip that lets the printer know when it is full or empty. By pressing the ok button you may be able to clear this message. However, most of the time you can still be able to print and ignore the message.

HP printer , will not print

aasc - As I recall from some time ago, HP experimented with putting expiration codes (chips) into some of their printer cartridges in an attempt to counter the print cartridge remanufacturers. These "refillers" were starting to really eat into the sales of new HP printer cartridges.

This was first done with some of the printers in the late 90's and I know the 800 series of printers had this "feature." You can either try a reset procedure, which is a pain and documented on various web sites:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVR2dHebmTI

The other issue could be a full printer ink reservoir (some call it a spitoon) or a clogged print head. Try running the printer cleaning operation from the HP printer utility in your PC Control panel to get the heads clean, etc. The other part about cleaning out the excess ink reservoir is a little messy, but here's a link that covers that too, for your printer.

http://www.fixyourownprinter.com/forums/inkjet/12839

The other thing to try, if those about don't get you running again, is to try swapping two (2) new cartridges into the printer and then swap back the refilled ones in at attempt to "trick" the printer into thinking you've got all new virgin cartridges in it. Unplug the printer and install the new ones and turn it back on. Once you've got the printer working, you can try swapping in the refilled ones without turning off the printer, just life the cover on the printer and the cartridges will slide to the center for removal/replacement.

I had this happen with my 895cse and after researching it further, discovered that yes HP was doing this to prevent other companies from eating into their very lucrative printer/toner/ink sales, which is really where they make their money from. (sorta like razors and razor blades, they'll give you a free razor and make all their money/profit on the blades as the comsumable item)

Another option to try is to reset your system clock on the PC to a date about a year previous from today so the print cartridge memory chip thinks the cartridges aren't that old - this was a suggestion from a tech kid at best buy when I was having this same issue a couple of years ago.

Anyway, I've been using the refilled inks most of the time and opt for a new set for every third set, just so I've got a good set to refill.

Hope you find this Very Helpful and best regards!

Hello, First of all, let's start with some simple questions. 1 Was the cartridge ever refilled or is it in the original state? 2 How exactly did this occured? I'm asking this because most printers have a limited space inside them for the cartridge to move around when printing. If they don't fit exactly as they should, they will most likely hit something in their movement when printing. If your cartridge was refilled maybe the person who did that didn't attached the cartridge top part properly and now it moved out of position and hits the inner top of the cartridge housing. Please provide me first with these informations so I can better assist you.
