HP Photosmart D7360 All-In-One InkJet Printer Logo
Anonymous Posted on Nov 27, 2010

I'm not getting any error messages on my D7360 printer, but the magenta isn't printing correct.ly. On a extended self diagnostic page printout the magenta prints purple. The ink is definitely the correct color- I just shook some out on my hand.

    No result. I had tried cleaning the contact and running the clean program before, but I did it again as per your suggestion. I have tried changing all of the cartridges. What is a mystery to me is that on te second page of the Extended Self Test Diagnostic Page, the Magenta box has color, but it's a faded

    light purple. I would think each of these boxes would be only the ink from that cartridge,and that's not what I'm seeing. The color has horizontal bands in it. I think it's only seeing partial ink flow. Any way to flush that nozzle?

Hi,

First step is to remove the Printheads and cartridges and clean the electrical contacts ( golden contacts ) with a lint free cloth.

Re-install the cartridges and printheads back into the machine and try to print self test page. it should normally work.

If this does not work, you need to clean the printheads from HP Solution Center - Settings - Printer toolbox - Clean Printheads

Hope this should resolve the issue.

    Probably the Cyan/Magenta ( not the Black/Yellow ) Printhead is defective. The cartridges are in good condition. There is no way you can flush the Printheads as normally cleaning the Printhead should have fixed the issue. The nozzles are blocked on the Cyan/Magenta Printhead and you need to replace it.

    The only hope is, If the Date printed on the Printhead shows greater than today's date ( it is the expiration date ) then you can get the Printhead replaced by calling HP Tech support on # 1-800-474-6836.

When the printer prints the colours come out all wrong

If the cyan, magenta and yellow blocks print correctly on the self test page but on pages from the computer then I woukld suspect a driver issue.
else
I would suspect the cartridge has run out of magenta ink. Try printing a diagnostic page.If the colors are "wrong" on this test then your cartridge is most likely the issue.

The lt magenta and magenta just quit printing between pages

1. Check if the cartriges are correctly installed:
Installing the Ink Cartridges

2. Print a diagnostic page and clean print heads, using the printer cleaning utility:
Color Mix or Missing Colors on the Diagnostic Page
Repeat if needed.

3. If this still doesn´t solve you problem, try resetting the printer and manually cleaning the cartrigdes as advised in this FAQ:
Ink Cartridge is Missing, Incorrectly Installed, or Not Intended for Your Device' Error Message is Displayed on the Printer

How do we bypass the expired ink cartridge message on the HP D7360. Magenta ink cartridge is not empty.

Take out both the cartridges > wipe it with clean cloth> then the ink part of the cartridge wipe it with plain white paper> let little bit of the ink come out on the paper & put them back again in the printer>restart pc + printer - ur done. no more messages on your printer>then print a test page-simple.

HP Photosmart D7360 not seen by PC, despite driver, s/w loaded

Not a solution per se - just a diagnosis. I have decided that the USB out port on the printer is bad - and after wasting time just trying to crack the case, will just use this as a photo printer "offline." It prints beautifully directly from media inserted into any of its onboard slots. I will just have to save things as .jpgs or picture formats to print from this printer. HP didn't have the part available, anyway. I called and inquired.

HP D7360 prints in magenta instead of black. Both cartridges are

Check your other colours. Anything other than a True Type Font is printed in colour shaded with black, so it sounds like you have a problem with yellow and cyan. Either the ink cartridges are out or the print heads have a blockage.
If the cartridges are not empty or v low, try sitting the print head over a folded paper kitchen towel damped with hot water for 10 minutes. Remove it and try your diagnostic again.

HP Photosmart D7360

HP support decided it could not be repaired on line, agreed to replace it but found it was a few days out of waranty...so it is dead in the water. Probably not cost effective to repair it.
