Have you tried deleting the drivers & redownloading them again, as they may have updated without your knowledge as many hps have updated themselves leaving us owner unable to use their printer, so we had to delete the printer software & reinsert the cd's that came with the printer & re-pair the comp & printer again....
I hope this helps... If I can assist your further please just comment & I will reply.....
Hello,
Loud noise is not usual. But you may try the below mentioned steps to check if it can resolve the issue.
While the printer is ON, remove the ink cartridges.
Unplug the Power cord from back of the printer .
Wait for 30 seconds.
Plug in the power cord to the printer.
Install the ink cartridges.
If issue still persists, please call HP Tech Support as it could be a printer hardware issue.
Sounds like it could a power supply problem inside the printer or a motherboard component failure. It needs to be taken in for servicing. There is no way to tell what the problem is without an internal review.
Sad to say I know how to fix this.
1. Power up the printer
2. set printer's date to the current day.
3. On the keypad press the * and # keys together
Now press one at a time 1,2,3 for the code
"screen stould display a white backround with 2 lines of info"
4. remove all the print cartridges
5. Press the >> arrow button twice until "reset menu" is found
6. Press OK
7. Select Partially full reset Press ok
( the printer will take almost to minutes before it powers down)
8. Power up the printer and follow the steps.
reinstall ink ect......
I don't know why this happens but I sure a lot of printers are in the trash because of this. If you print out a SELF TEST REPORT the
dates on the age of the ink Cartridges are likely out of life range.
Planned obsolescence by HP can be found all over the web. This could be one of those.

Sir/Madam
It's Seem That Your HP Printer Power cord Is not Connected Properly,so I strongly suggest You Check Your Check Your Power Cord Is Connected Or Not If yes then May be Your switch is Not working Correct Or If No Then
Reconnect the power cord. If the product does not automatically turn on, press the Power button ( ).
Reinsert the cartridges, and then close any open doors on the product.
If you receive a prompt to print a calibration page, do so.
Reconnect the USB cable to the rear of the product, and then try printing again.

Check the power supply cords; make sure they are attached properly. If you are using a power strip, surge protector or any other device where the power supply cord is not plugged directly into a wall outlet, bypass them and plug the printer into a wall outlet; see if that changes anything.
If that doesn't work, remove the printer's power cord from the outlet and all the other cables that the printer connects to the computer to.
Wait 5 or 10 minutes for the printer's CMOS and RAM chips to power off completely.
After enough time has elapsed, plug only the printer's power cord into the wall outlet (do not hook up any of the communication cables in e.g. USB, or serial cables, or network cables.)
Then press the power "on" button.
If the error message is gone, power off the printer.
Uninstall the printer and all its programs from the computer.
Do a clean install and follow the procedures of hooking up the printer as though you are installing it for the very 1st time.
You may have to obtain firmware and/or software updates from HP on your specific printer.
You may also have to check with your OS vendor to make sure you have all the updates/service packs on your PC or laptop
The problem is most likely related to the buildup of metallic dust particles on the magnetic parts of the rollers which move the paper through the machine. The paper is held tight by the magnets attraction between 2 rollers. Magnetic dust prevents the gripping from happening and the machine defaults to sensing a lack of paper.Wipe them down with a damp cloth and let dry thoroughly. Other possibility is that a gear wheel has fallen off. This is a bigger problem because they are generally attached with small plastic axles which cannot be repaired.
Unplug power cord from printer and electrical outlet wait 30 seconds and hold in help and OK buttons while reconnecting power cord. continue holding buttons until screen turns black turn printer on and continue this helped me.If you need any kind of technical assistance you can contact support cell at http://www.vtechsquad.com/

There are two different types of carriage units that you may be referring to depending upon the model printer you have. Older types of photo printers had two distinct carriages.1. Carriage referees to equipment that travel left to right in your printer. 2. One is for the print heads that receive ink from your print cartridges and dispenses it to the paper that you are using.3. The print head carriage that travels back and forth to accept replacement ink cartridges. Most of the time it is tucked to one side or the other and only travels when the printer is opened in a specific way to expose it for ink replacements.In newer systems the print heads are built into the Ink cartridge, each color has it's own print head.So in answer to your question the carriage cartridge is more than likely the container that you put your ink cartridge into. Unless you have an older printer and then it would or could be the carriage for either the print head or the ink. They some times need to be replaced. I had to replace that cartridge in an old HP2500 for as long as we had the printer. (4 years). Great machine high maintenance.
