Hp 4215 all in one printer

You need to do two separate things: 1. You must erase the driver that you currently have for that printer and disconnect/restart the printer physically. To erase the driver in Windows 7 do the following: Start Menu -> Devices and Printers -> Right Click HP OfficeJet 4215 -> Remove Device (if this doesn't work you can also try fiddling with the properties too in the same context menu).
2. Then you need to download and install the new driver from here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=351106&lang=en& (Contains Drivers for all Operating Systems)

HP 27 cartridge is not compatable for this printer. Supported cartridges are :

Back : HP 56
Color : HP 57 , HP 28

Photo cart : HP 58

go to web site of printer model and check site for trouble shooting HP has an awesome trouble shooting site
hope this helps and good luck

if you are using windows then go to control panel and go to printers(windows vista) or printers and faxes (windows xp) and then select the correct printer icon out of the two icons.. there will be two icons (for eg . officejet 4215 and officejet 4215 fax.. ) choose the one which doesnt says fax .

It's true. All cartridges are used for each copy. Black or color. only use GENUINE HP carts.

Normal 0 I suggest you get a sheet of Card Stock (Heavy paper) and place it in the feed way. Then press the print button applying a slight amount of pressure on the Card Stock so it will feed through the printer. The reason for this, is in some cases I have been able to clear the paper track of debris that was deposited there over time.
Worth a try, as I have fixed a number of printers this way, saving costly repairs.
Hope this helps. Bud

I assume you are using the manual feed try, if so there is a tire (rubber) near the center of the tray, just use any penetrating oil (such as triflow or wd-40) and clean the tire. Same thing goes for the tray assembly, there will be one half circle tire (flat on one side round on the other its the round side that needs cleaning).

Sometimes the feed rollers can get dusty or acquire other deposits on them that can cause a loss of friction, resulting in feed problems. You could try cleaning them to see if it would help. Here's the instructions:

Cleaning the Rollers

Post back your results and good luck.

If after the storm, your printer suddenly couldn't fax, scan, and copy, my guess is that a power surge fried some of the printer's electronics. You could try turning everything off (printer, Mac) and then turning everything back on. Verify that all of the cords and cables are securely connected, the give it a try.

If it was just one function (fax or scan or copy), there would probably be some specific diagnostic tasks to try to solve the problem, but with that many features going out at once, you may have an unresolvable issue. The only way to be more sure under the circumstances would be to take the printer in for service and see what the repair person said.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
