we can try and alternative to align the cartridges
for that the printer software must be installed on the computer
so first of all open the solution center of the printer
and now click on the settings tab
and then click on printer toolbox
now click on align print cartridges and wait for the sheet to print if it prints fine that means that the cartridges are successfully aligned
if still it fails the alignment
.
then we can try a reset on the printer
so for that press red eye removal button and the print photos button together
now it will ask you to enter special key combo
so press red eye removal print photos and again red eye removal
now it will display the support menu
so press right arrow key and go to reset menu
and then press ok now go to semiful reset
and press ok
wait for 2 min poweron the printer and wait for tdhe printer to align the ink
hope this will help

HP4180 all-in-one gear slipping problem. We've had this machine for about 1 year and have run no more than 50 copies through it. Under the glass there is a mechanism that moves along a strip with gear teeth. On the underside of the moving mechanism there is an electric motor with a black worm gear on the shaft. The worm gear runs a larger, white gear that in turn moves the mechanism along the geared strip. My problem is that the larger white gear and the worm gear don't align perfectly and now the teeth on the larger white gear are worn concave on about 20% of the circumference of the gear. Where can I get a new gear? I spaced the larger gear up with a thin washer so the worm gear would ride on a small portion of non-worn teeth and it works now but its only a matter of time before it slips again. Can anyone tell me what this moving mechanism is called that goes from side to side under the glass. The worn gear is housed in the underside of this mechanism. Looks like avery poor design as there is no way to adjust or align the gears. Thanks.
