The cartridge keeps going backwards and forwards and very noisy

check to see if your machine is in buttonhole mode, one of the legs of the buttonholer will always be a reverse zigzag.

Hi
Have you tried resetting the printer ?
Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

Simply turn printer off. Open door. With a flashlite, look inside to the right side where you'll see a small tray that slides forward and backwards. This is the cartridge cleaner. Push the tray forward (away from you) until it stops then move it backwards until the little black tab on the right is 1/2 inch from the metal part of the carriage. Close the door. Turn printer on. All done. Print something.

Had the same problem with machine gun noises. Solved same. Simply turn printer off. Open door. With a flashlite, look inside to the right side where you'll see a small tray that slides forward and backwards. This is the cartridge cleaner. Push the tray forward (away from you) until it stops then move it backwards until the little black tab on the right is 1/2 inch from the metal part of the carriage. Close the door. Turn printer on. All done. Print something.

at the back side of the printer there is a access door .open that door and remove the jammed paper.after that ON the printer and wait for the cartridges to get adjusted.after it get adjusted check out by giving a print command.

When I turn on the 2110 printer the scan light just keeps moving forward a small amount and to goes back to the home position. It will do this for about 5 minutes and then shut donw.

If the Resume light continues to blink and the print cartridge cradle does not move to the right side of the printer, try these solutions:

• Remove and reinstall the print cartridges. Verify that the print cartridges are in the print cartridge cradle before pushing them forward into position.
• Verify that no obstruction prevents the print cartridge cradle from moving freely on the rod.
• Verify that the vinyl tape has been removed from each of the print cartridges.

If the problem persists, contact HP Customer Care.

Did you reset after changing the Drum? This is how to do it:

Switch Printer on, after warmup open the front cover. Now press the Blue Go button and keep it pressed. Wait as follows befor releasing the button: Each light (starting with the Toner light) will in turn switch to orange and stay on. When all 4 lights are constantly orange, wait for a few seconds then let go of the button.

That should do it

Replacing your cartridge:

1. Make sure the printer is switched on.
2. Pull the operator panel forward and open the cartridge access door. (Note: The cartridge carrier moves to the loading position, unless the printer is busy).
3. Pull the old cartridge forward and then lift it out.
4. If the cartridge is new, remove only the sticker or transparent tape on the bottom of the Cartridge.
5. Insert the cartridges into the carrier and push back firmly until they snap securely into place.
