I just tried another USB cable and it didn't change a thing.
I went back to my March 14th backup and restored it but it didn't help. It did the same thing. I thought maybe I just had low ink also so that's...
I tried that including the "resetting the printer" but none of it helped. It still shows the cartridges as having ink in them. It shows the...
Thanks, I'll check it out. As for refills or replacement, they are HP originals or it looks like they are. The cartridge packaging was the...
That's one thing I haven't tried. I thought about doing a backup of how it is now just in case I made matters worse and then doing a restore using...
That didn't work either. I turned it on and it didn't start flashing it's red lights, etc. I got my hopes up but when I started to try to print a...
No, I haven't tried that but I will! Thanks! I hope it works.
Ok, I tried it and I got "print cartridge error" "mis-installed pen". Those are 2 different error messages from what I've been getting.
I have installed these ink cartridges so many times, I've lost count. I'm doing like I've always done when it did work but this time, it doesn't....
I hate to sound like I don't want help but I've tried that also and it will not print a test page. But, knowing how computers can be so ornery...
I thought maybe this printer was just worn out but now I'm thinking that maybe it wasn't. I found a new HP D5160 for sale still in the original...
That's what I've decided to do. It looks like this one is junk now. I just hope I get the same quality of photos from it as I did with this one...
Yes, I tried it so many times with it unplugged and just tried it again. It moved maybe an inch to the left and back completely to the right and...
That is another weird thing. There have been times I could move it by hand and times I couldn't but today it won't. It is in the home position and...
If that is my problem, it must be very small because I've checked it so many times.
Yes, I've tried those steps also and I can't find anything blocking it. I've taken a flash light and looked down in it from the front, top and...
Ok, tried the diagnostic utility again but using Vista SP2 or 3 and it worked. But, it didn't tell me anything that I don't already know. It says...
Apparently someone is trying to tell me to purchase a new printer because I can't get anything to work. I tried the diagnostic utility and I get...
They are suppose to be originals and not refills. They were in the Hp box sealed up as I'm gotten before and they hadn't expired yet. The color...
Thanks! I have been looking at new ones and they're so cheap, I'm suspicious. The way everything is made cheap today, I just wonder about the...
Thank you JR for your reply. I tried those steps but they didn't help either. I guess it's time for a new printer but thank you anyway!
I have a HP PhotoSmart D5160 printer with Windows 7 and it is giving me problems. It started when I tried to print a greeting card. This card came...
Thanks! I'll just have to look at it as a lesson learned "the hard way". I do appreciate everyone's help with this.
Well, as the saying goes, "I have egg all over my face". It is 8.07 GB.
