How do i install a new cartridge in my 5510 all in one

first you confirm scanning is working or not if it is working fine there is no issue with printer, if it is not working problem found with scanner assay you need to contact hp service center....

the print head the the cartridge sits in might need to be pushed in

You often have to tilt the cartridge to get it out. Some cartridges have plastic holders you have to disengage. Refer to your manual, or just inspect the cartridge holder carefully to figure out how to dislodge it.

Look on the right side where the cartridge goes, if the spring on the right is hanging loose it might have poked a hole in the ribbon cable at the rear near the contacts. If so it's time for a new printer, if OK, check the exp. date on the ink cartridge and if it's been refilled or a generic ink you may just need another one.

If you mean HP OfficeJet 5510 then the following tutorial is for you:

this should work for all 5500 hp printers i hope this helps you out richard from chicago i just noticed you have the wrong cartage you need hp 57 color that will make all the difference :-) HP Officejet 5500 series All-in-One model Black cartridge Color cartridge HP Officejet 5505 HP 56 HP 57 HP Officejet 5508 HP 56 HP 57 HP Officejet 5515 HP 56 HP 57 HP Officejet 5510, HP Officejet 5510xi, HP Officejet 5510v HP 56 HP 57 HP Officejet 5600 series Replacing the print cartridges

1. Turn on the HP Officejet, and lift open the print-carriage access door. The print carriage will move into the access area. Figure 1: Opening the print-carriage access door
2. After the carriage stops moving, push down on the top of the print cartridge to release it, and then pull it toward you out of the slot. Figure 2: Removing the print cartridge NOTE: It is normal to see ink buildup in the print cartridge slots.
3. Remove the new print cartridge from the packaging and gently remove the plastic tape by using the pink pull tab. CAUTION: Do not touch the copper contacts or ink nozzles. Install the cartridge immediately upon removing the tape to prevent ink from drying in the nozzles. Figure 3: Removing the plastic tape
4. Push the new print cartridge into the appropriate slot at a slight angle, until it clicks into place. CAUTION: Do not attempt to push the cartridge straight into the slot. It must slide in at a slight angle. Figure 4: Inserting the print cartridge
5. Close the print-carriage access door.

Aligning the print cartridges The HP Officejet will prompt you to align the print cartridges every time you install a new print cartridge to assure high-quality output.

1. When the message displays, press OK . The HP Officejet will print an alignment page.
2. Place the alignment page face down on the left front corner of the glass with the top of the page facing the left side.
3. Press OK . The HP Officejet will align the print cartridges and display Alignment Complete .

You'll need to power on the printer to replace the ink cartridge. Open the compartment on the right side. You'll see the cartridge slot slide over to you after you hit the power button. When the power is off the cartridge slot hides within the printer.

For HP 5510 series for replacing the cartige, you need to lift the door just above the paper tray. Pull out the old cartidge, hold it so you can see the way it is inserted and click in gently in the same way.
