and yes, I have a green light on the cord on the back of the printer.
The printer was showing a display, but not responding to the print jobs in the que. (sp?) After deleting them and then even turning off the printer, now it won't turn back on.
Ideas appreciated! I'd rather not buy a new printer because I have a lot of "spare" cartridges for this one.
I had a similar problem with an HP OfficeJet All in one that drove me nuts.It would loose power,then come on, then loose power again.What I figured out and you can investigate is that although the power adapter (mini ups) is on green light the connection is not making contact.If you play with the power plug on the printer, jiggle it, pull it out,push it it and you find the printer starts,trys to go into setup thats your problem.I tried using tape to hold it in (worked for a while),tied the cord wire up relieving stress on the connection,(worked for a while till cat thought it was a toy).My best solution was to add tiny tinfoil arround pins or holes,(lasted months).I since upgraded to an all in one wireless.I don't like the adapters that HP uses on its printers.They should by now make a better connection detail.Sorry for the long response I still get angry as I'm sure you are but if this is your issue you can fix it.Good Luck.
The other thing that comes to mind is that some printers have an internal battery that looks like a flat disc about the size of a nickel. If this battery goes bad, the printer may not turn on. I could not find any material online that suggests a battery exists in this model, but it's worth a look inside the printer anyway. It probably will be in an "out of the way" area under the hood with the cartridges and it shouldn't be too inaccessible.

I am using the unit in a "stand alone" config. It will not send or receive a fax. Phone line is good. I probably have it hooked up wrong but I do not know. Help!

Half empty black cart stopped printing, error message to replace. New cart also didn't print. Repeated cycles of clean and prime did nothing -- nothing but fill the bottom of the printer with a puddle of ink. Troubleshooting page suggests cleaning or replacing the cartridge service module. Is this possible on this machine. Is it a dead puppy or worth fixing?
