Can't get it to print

To use the printer with your computer, first you have to install the drivers and make power cable connection. HP LaserJet 1018 has USB connectivity. So, you have to connect it to the PC via USB Cable.
HP LaserJet 1018 Drivers & User Guide
Visit the above links from HP Official Support and download the Drivers for your Model of the printer and Operating System (e.g. Windows XP) and user manual. Double-click the downloaded driver file and follow the on-screen instructions to install the printer.
Let me know if any further clarification/ assistance is required.

Hope it helps! Good Luck!

First thing to do is to turn off the HP. Clear out any print jobs that are sitting on your computer print que waiting to be printed. Turn the printer back on, wait about 1 minute then try printing again. If this does not work then clear the print job again and reboot your PC. Try printing again. If still you can not print then reply here with how the printer is connected to your PC. By USB cable? Ethernet? etc.
Thanks

This is not a printer problem. You have a computer problem. In ALL cases, the printer is told what to do from the computer, it does not report TO the computer.

dear friend,
when the printer give you a yellow flash that should be means a fault happen so you have to do the following:
1- check if any messages appears on your computer when you trying to print something that should be help you. if not go to step 2
2- black paper may be come from the (P.C.R.) that is the charger of the drum, so if you can open your cartridge and check the charger at the op of the drum that will be good and if not you may change the cartridge and check again.
3- Also, you can release the cartridge and look inside the printer may be you can find something wrong or something need to fix
4- Other wise go to hp help center

first of all remove the power cable and rmove the usb connection or  parallal connection from the pc. Then conneted the power and usb cable. you need to open the case to remove the printer cartise. and add the cartise. Start your pc. give print command.
