Flashing of all lights means there is a problem in a small circuit board behind the carriage . it does not allow the printer to initialize and come to the ready position. open the upper cover of the printer and try to clean the dust or some moisture that is creating the short circuit.if it still does not help replace the circuit board.it is not much expensive and is a better option than buying a new printer.
If my solutions helped you in any way, kindly take a moment to "Accept" this solution. Thanks in advance.

For how long the problem is there

  • Anonymous Jun 07, 2008

    when you replace the cartridges
    you have to align them,did you get a print out with a lot of coloured
    lines on it? if so put it face down on the printer screen & press
    the scan button until the on/off button flashes when its finished the
    printer should be ok to use.If this will not cure it then maybe it may
    be worth trying to uninstall/reinstall the product,failing that go to
    the Compac/HP Website & troubleshoot from there. Its a very helpful
    site

HP Deskjet F4180 Color changes and lines in photo printing

HP always recommend that ink cartridge should be replace by original ink.

As this kind of scenario will occur if the ink will just be replace by a refill ink.
