Tried turning off printer, unplugging, removing cartridges, plugging back in, turning on, replacing cartridges--didn't work. tried unplugging and plugging back in while pressing help and ok--didn't work
I have tried all the steps suggested below and none of them work. It just keeps saying 'ink system failure' and if I press OK it then says 'Carriage Jam'. I have open my machine and the carriage moves with no problem. It then reverts to 'ink system failure'.
Help - my printer is only 18 months old
It is a the flow of the ink into the printer which fails, and these error cannot be reset most of the times when you turn of the unit and oon back again if it works then it is good again, if not it is better to replace the All-In-One, If the printer is in warranty or extended warranty you will get a free replacement from HP, if not you can get a upgrade option wher you may get some discount from HP Tech support Call 1800 474 6836
My printer had the same problem when a gear slipped off its axel. Refer to http://www.fixya.com/support/t439120-ink_system_failure_error_message

I have called HP tech support but they have told me that a replacement one (mine is out of warranty by only 6 months) will cost £155. It is not worth it as a new equivalent one is only £200 and with far more features. I can still scan with the existing one but it seems a waste after only 18 months' use as I paid £269 for my 3310 originally.
