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.

If is an original brand? Some generic cartridges or refill ones gave that problem.

SOURCE: changing ink cartridges

hi! there might be two possibilities...
1) the device drivers you have installed is corrupt.. try uninstalling n then installing the drivers
2) if that is not working out then your printer must be having some problem.. you may have to get it serviced.

As the previous message stated, I had the same problem and it was resolved by making sure that I used the original power cable. I couldn't find it at first and tried with three others all with the same error. Finally it was resolved by using the original.

I just installed two ink cartridges in my HP Photosmart 7250 and every time I try to print it says the yellow cartridge is empty and it will only print in black, not color, but when I select black only it...

I just had the same problem on my printer and found that resetting the printer solved the problem.

To reset this printer, make sure the printer is on. Unplug the printer without turning the printer off.
Wait 60 seconds.
Hold down the # and 6 button while plugging the printer back in. Keep holding the # and 6 down while the printer turns on. After a bit, on mine there was a picture of the power symbol that appeared on the printer display.
When the power symbol appears on the printer display, take your fingers off the # and 6 button.
Push the power button to turn the printer off. Push the power button again to turn the printer back on. The printer will take some time to go through some preparation. When the preparation is complete, the printer will recognize that the cartridges are full.

HP PHOTOSMART 475 WILL NOT SWITCH ON WHEN PLUGED IN

hmmm...ok..unplug from computer first

then with power switch/button depressed, AND power cable out of wall, plug it into the wall, hold button for 30 seconds..

if that's not ok, then make certain the light on your power input is good. We're assuming the power is good from outlet, right?
