Hp vivera First, I place sheet of paper on the copy window that I want copied. When I press copy, my display reads: Remove and check color cartridge. I then remove my color cartridge and get: Insert Tri-Color Print Cartridge into slot on left. I do so. Then I press copy and again get: Remove and check color cartlidge. It keeps me going in circles! What can I do to fix the problem?

Replace black cartridge., its clogged/dried.

Regular paper, envelopes, or specialty media may get stuck or jammed in the printer. Follow the instructions below to find and remove jammed paper (or other media) from the printer. If the HP All-in-One has a paper jam, first check the rear door. If the jammed paper is not in the rear rollers, check the front door.

Step one: Check for and remove any paper stuck in the paper In tray

1. Remove all loose paper from the paper In tray.
2. Press the RESUME button.
   
   • If the paper jam is cleared, skip to Step Four
     
   • If the paper is still jammed, continue on to the next step below.

If more than one sheet is stuck in the printer, remove the paper, one sheet at a time by taking hold of a sheet in the middle of the stack and, with both hands and firm, even pressure, pull the sheet towards you. Usually, removing one or two sheets from the middle of the stack will release the pressure and the rest of the stack can be removed.

After removing the paper, check to make sure no scraps of paper are stuck in the printer.

• If the paper jam is cleared, skip to Step Four.
• If the paper is still jammed, continue on to the next section.
  
  

Step two: Clearing a paper jam from the back of the printer

If the paper jam is not accessible from the In tray, follow the instructions below to clear the paper from the back of the printer.

1. Unplug the HP All-in-One.
2. Press in the tab on the left side of the rear door to release the door. Remove the door by pulling it away from the HP All-in-One. Figure 1: Removing the rear door
   
   

1. Gently pull the paper out of the rollers.
   CAUTION:If the paper tears when removing it from the rollers, check the rollers and wheels for torn pieces of paper that might be remaining inside the device. If all of the pieces of paper are not removed from the HP All-in-One, more paper jams are likely to occur.
2. Replace the rear door. Gently push the door forward until it snaps into place.
3. Press Cancel to continue the current job.
   
   • If the paper jam is cleared, skip to Step Four
     
   • If the paper is still jammed, continue on to the next section.
     
     

Step three: Lift the front cover and slowly remove any jammed paper

1. Unplug the power cable.
2. If necessary, pull the input tray down to open it. Then, lower the print cartridge door. Figure 2: Lowering the print cartridge door
   
   

1. Gently pull the paper out of the rollers.
   CAUTION:If the paper tears when while removing it from the rollers, check the rollers and wheels for torn pieces of paper that might be remaining inside the device. If all the pieces of paper are not removed from the HP All-in-One, more paper jams are likely to occur.
2. Close the print cartridge door.
   Figure 3: Closing the print cartridge door
   

1. Plug the power cable into the HP All-in-One.
2. Turn the power on.
3. Press Start Copy Black or Start Copy Color to continue the current job.

Step four: Verify the print cartridge carriage can move freely

1. Unplug the power cable.
2. Check to see if the print cartridge carriage can move freely from one side of the printer to the other. If the carriage is to the right and out of plain view, skip to Step Five. Do not try to force it to move if it is hung up on something. [img src="http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf-JAVA/Image/common/note.png" alt="">
   NOTE:Be careful not to force the print cartridge carriage. If the carriage is stuck, forcing it to move will damage the printer.
   
   • If the carriage does not move, continue with the next step below.

Remove the print cartridges.

Step five: Reload and test the printer

Once the jammed paper is removed, verify that the printer is still functioning properly.

1. Reload the printer with plain paper.
2. Perform a self-test by pressing and holding the Resume button until the printer starts printing. A test page should print.

NOTE:Do not put more than 35 sheets of plain paper in the document feeder tray.

Gently move the print cartridge to the far right of the printer.

Remove the paper from the paper In tray, but do not remove the drawer.

Remove the rear access door.

With your fingers, rotate the rollers "up" three full rotations.

Push the rear access door back into the printer until it snaps firmly into place.

Replace the print cartridges.

Plug the power cable into the HP All-in-One.

Turn the power on.

Step six: Service the printer

Perform all the steps mentioned above. If the problem continues, service the printer.
Cause Paper jams can be caused by several factors. Follow these guidelines to prevent further paper jams.

• Insert paper into the paper tray only until it meets resistance. Do not push it farther in.
• Make sure that the paper is flat in the paper tray and that the guide is adjusted to the width of the paper.
• Do not add paper while the product is printing.
• Remove printed pages frequently.
• Do not use paper that is too thin, too slick, or that stretches.
• Do not use torn or creased paper. Used paper might cause jams.
• Make sure that the rear access door is securely fastened.

1. Turn on the HP all-in-one.
2. Disconnect the USB cable from the all-in-one.
3. Press the sequence of front panel buttons below to initiate the print cartridge alignment process. The button-press sequence must be completed within ten seconds. It might take several tries to complete the sequence within ten seconds.

a. Press and hold Cancel.
b. While holding Cancel, press On.
c. When the Check Paper and Check Print Cartridge lights begin to blink simultaneously, release both buttons.
d. Press Cancel again.
e. Press Copies.
f. Press Paper Type.
g. Press Color Start Copy.
h. The alignment page will begin printing. If the alignment page does not print, repeat the button-press sequence in this step.

4. Once the alignment page is printed, place the page face down on the scanner glass and press Scan. The alignment is complete when the On light stops blinking. 5. Reconnect the USB cable.

One common cause of paper feed issues is a build up of dust on the printer's rear paper feed roller. This roller consists of a plastic axle white roller. This is located in the automatic sheet feeder and is referred to as the "Pick Roller." As dust builds up on the rubber rollers, they become less tacky and therefore unable to grab a single sheet of paper.

To prevent and/or cure this type of paper feed problem, these rubber rollers should be cleaned. Unplug the printer's power cord and remove the paper from the automatic sheet feeder. Please remove the paper access door from back of the printer and clean the white rollers inside with a cloth dampened with warm water (be sure there is no excess water on the cloth as it may drip into the machine). After these are free of any dust, close the paper access door. Reload the paper and plug the power cord back in. The paper should then feed normally.

Next, try this printer self-test by following the steps given below:

1. Make sure the printer is in “Copy Mode.”
2. Press the “Menu” button once.
3. The screen will display “Copy Menu: Copies”.
4. Press the left arrow button once. The screen will display “Copy Menu: Tools”.
5. Press the check button once. The screen with read “Tools: Maintenance”.
6. Press the check button once. The screen with read “Maintenance: Ink Levels”.
7. Press the right arrow button until the screen reads “Maintenance: Print Test Page”.
8. Press the check button once. This will start the Self-Test. Once the page has printed, the printer will stop. The test is not continuous.

The self-test should at least print out a set of either a solid black or solid color bars, if not both (if you have a printer with both color and black installed simultaneously). Should this test fail, please try it again without cartridges installed. If the self-test still fails to take paper in and make sounds like the carrier is moving across the paper, this is a hardware issue, and the printer will require service. If the self-test completes without any cartridges installed, run the self-test again with only a color cartridge installed (If you have both black and color cartridges, after this test, run the test again with just the black cartridge installed). If you find that either cartridge causes the self-test to fail, please let us know.

If the self-test prints, but has lines or smudges or other print quality issues, please let us know. This includes any print quality issues - we need to know if the problems you have with your black or color are based in the printer, or communications with your computer, or the computer's software.

If the self-test prints your test bar(s) clearly, the printer hardware is not at fault.

This quite often happens with CLONE cartridges and happens very infrequent with original cartridges.

The cause is the ink level chip used in clones is quite often a very cheap chinese copy and very prone to failure or misalignment

Either way take them back and get them changed is my advice
