Try unplugging the power cord and the PC cord for 2 minutes then plug the AC back in before connecting the PC. If that doesn't work, unplug the AC cord again and hold the power switch on the printer in while plugging the AC cord back in.If it doesn't work, try performing a semi-reset:

Remove both the cartridges and then perform the reset.

Perform a semi-full reset on your PSC 2200 by holding the button
combination given below, while plugging in the power cord.

CAUTION: A semi-full reset will reset or clear the following
information:

* Return the user settings to the factory defaults.
* Delete language and country settings on some models.
* Fax logs.
* Fax headers.
* Fax speed dial information.

Press and hold "#" and "6" buttons while on the front panel keypad,
plugging in the power cord.

Now insert the cartridges back. Try printing a test page from the printer itself now. If it's OK, it means that the printer is OK. If not, there could be a hardware problem with the printer.
Good luck!

The back of the printer at the lower left corner near the USB port.

Issue seems to be with the hardware of printer.

You can try following steps to reset it to "factory default settings"

Wish for all success..

Remove the cartridges and clean the copper contacts of cartridges with lightly moistened lint free cloth. Do not insert them in printer after cleaning

Power cycle the printer by following steps when cartridges are out

2- Wait for 30 seconds
3- plug the power cord and turn on the printer

Insert cartridges, it should start aligning automatically

You need to reset the printer. I had the same exact problem with a C6150. Unplug the power cord from back "while printer power is on" (doesn't have to be fully booted just turning on). Wait 20 seconds, hold # and 6 keys together and plug power back in. Continue to hold until power goes off or semi-reset message comes up. Power up (if off) press OK for any error messages and let the printer cycle. Should be good to go. Mine sounded very noisy while it was trying to allign internally. I can only suspect that was the initial problem but this process fixed mine and it runs great now. Hope this helps.

Here are some part numbers for you. I found both these items on ebay but you might be able to find them other places. I just used ebay to check if the part numbers were correct. There are two cords that you need to power the machine.
1) The Power Cord: PN# 8120-8900. This cord plugs into the power module then into the wall.
2)The Power Module: PN# 0957-2229. This cord plugs into your printer and has a place for the power cord to plug in.

There might be some places that sell them both together but be careful if you have lost both these you will need them both to power your machine.
Hope this helps

It should work OK once you plug it back in. Note there are three places to check the power connection.
- The power pack has to be inserted firmly
- the cord that goes into the power pack
- the cord into the wall - be sure to check the wall outlet with a lamp or something to make sure it's not an overall power problem/breaker, etc.

On the phone for an hour with those idiots in India, same exact problem. Here is what you do: 1: Unplug AC cord from back 2: Hold down the # and 6 key, plug in the powe cord and continue to hold the kes for 1 minute. 3. Printer will power off durning this time. Release the keys and plug in the power cord. 4. You may need to press the power button on. This will hard reset the printer. It will go throught the initialaztion process and suck your cartridges but should solve the problem. HP SUCKS!
