I just want to print - computer says it is "off-line'. Print says "scan, copy, etc." but not 'print'. What do I do?

In most cases the printer driver software can have errors while being in use or is shut down. So to reset remove your printer from the PC and uninstall the printer software. Now reinstall the printer software and then connect the Printer to be detected as a new hardware as it will be installed. Now check the printer properties to see the ink levels.
Activate head cleaning before a test is taken .Use the test print to calbrate the SCANNER.

Check all the leads and connections of the mother board , the tags to the ink cartridge. Also check the mechanical settings of the ink cartridge , if jammed or tight remove motor and manually free the drive before it is set back.

Thank you for using Fixya

My printer acts like if its printing it has brand new ink and it doesnt print

The ink-jets that spray the ink onto the paper are clogged.
Run a few "print-head-cleaning" cycles, to try to unclog it.

Won't print in color

Make sure you run the cleaning mode under the INK button. Run it 2-3 times to get the ink through the tubes. If you are using generic ink, it may have clogged the tubes in side the unit.

Ink cartridge problems

exchanged the black cartridge (57): the printer told me there was a problem with it, that I should remove it and re-insert it. I did, the ink button still blicks. After several efforts the printer started to work again, printed one document and then told me there was a problem with the colour cartridge. I removed it, re-inserted it several times. Finally a test page was printed - everything was okay.

Then the printer refused to print anything - the yellow LED lamp blicks continuously. Have turned the printer on and off, have also shut down the computer and re-started.

The only thing that will work now is the black cartridge, if I remove the colour one.

Make sure the printer is back on. Go to control panel, printers. Right click your printer, on the sub menu that appears, click 'use printer offline' to remove the check mark. That should do it.

If it's a USB printer, unplug the USB cable with the printer on. Wait a few seconds and plug it back in, the computer should re-find it.
I hope your using at least Windows XP...
Don't try this if you're using a parallel cable.
