Exactly what I'm experiencing, it goes though all the motions, but no ink is on the paper. I just installed 10.5.8 last night on my Mac Pro. The drivers are up to date, but no ink hits the paper.

Help! my macbook OS10.6.2 will not let me print from my HP photosmart C3180 all-in-one printer.

You may need to install the updated printer driver for Snow Leopard. Go to the HP site: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=219&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=1146331
Click the first link HP Photosmart Full Feature Software and Drivers - Mac OS X v10.6
On the subsequent page, click the download link, when prompted SAVE to your desktop or downloads folder. Then locate the downloaded file and doubleclick and run the setup. Once that's complete, go to System Preferences, click Print & Fax, click the + sign in the left column if you don't see your printer listed there. Follow the steps to add the printer.

Hp photosmart c3180 just hooked up, new, comunicates with computer on all levels. print or copy will not put anything on paper, goes through all motions but does not put anything on paper, new supplied ink...

There is no reason for it not to print ink onto the paper unless it's defective or both carts are dried up. I would return it for an exchange.

Hope that helps...
