2. Check print cartridge light stays on even though I put in a full black cartridge yesterday.

1.1 Switch off the printer and disconnect the powersupply. Allow any residual charge to fade away before putting your hands ormetal tools inside the chassis.
2.Step 2 Pin down the exact location of the jam. Thethree hot spots for a jam are the paper tray, anywhere between the feed trayand the print carriage, or between the print carriage and the output tray.
3.Step 3 Take off the front paper tray if the sheet gotstuck while it was still in the front area of the printer. If the sheet jammedhere, you should be able to see most of the paper.
4.Step 4 Pull on the sheet with both hands and steadypressure. Do not tug as you might rip the paper, leaving a chunk of it deeperin the machine.
5.Step 5 Open the back panel to reach paper jammedbetween the feed tray area and the print carriage of the all-in-one printer.Carefully remove the jammed paper from the machine.
6.Step 6 Use the carriage access door to reach a jamfurther inside the all-in-one printer. You may need to move the print carriageout of your way to clear the jam.
7.Step 7 Return any access panels to their closed andlocked positions. Plug your printer back in and flip the power switch.
remove color or black cartridge, close the lid, let the printer initialize, and then reopen lid and add 2nd printer cartridge...
this should sove the problem
1) If under warranty , call HP. or - Take out the cartridge and papers - Unplug the Power cable while the printer is on. - Wait for 10 secs. - Replug the power cable while holding down the power button, hold the power button for about 25 secs. - restart the Printer Install the cartridge and paper.
The solution to this is bizarre but worked for me.
In Vista press the windows key and R button. The Run window opens and in the run window type services.msc and then press Enter. 2. Locate Print spooler from the Services window which opened in the previous step. 3. Right click on it and select Restart.
Your printer will print a self-test page but then should be good to go.
For printing the Legal Size (8.5′x14′) in cannon LBP-1210, follow the instruction: Step 1- Go to start Step 2-printer and faxs Step 3-select printer(Canon LASER SHOT LBP-1210) Step 4-go to file Step 5-select Server properties Step 6-select creat new form (for legal page) Step 7-give form name legal 1 Step 8-give paper size width 8.50in, hight 14.00 Step 9-give paper margin top 0.30in, left 0.30in, right 0.30in, bottom 0.30in Step 10-select save form Step 11-then select advanced Step 12-select informational notifications for local printers Step 13-select apply Step 14-then close Step 15-select Canon Laser Shot LBP-1210 Step 16-select printer Step 17-select properties Step 18-select-select forms Step 19-select change forms Step 20-select legal 1 Step 21-select OK Step 22-select apply Step 23-select OK
Remember: 1 U need to set paper size (8.5′ x 14′) manually in the word documents and befor printing you need to set in printer properties “Legal 1′ for printing. Print preview may not show the whole page but the printer will print the whole page.
All the best.

Please check the printer status at control panel printer properties if it is offline or ready. Restart your computer if necessary, you will notice all pending jobs will be printed as long as there is no problem with the connections of cables and drivers. Note: Do not cancel printing jobs in the middle of sending data mode to printer or queing instead you have to remove all papers on tray and wait for the error "paper out or empty" then there click Cancel. Hopes this helps.
