20 Most Recent HP DeskJet 845c Printer - Page 4 Questions & Answers

Hi welcome to Fixyah,

Disconnect your HP printere from your usb port and then reconnect it back and use another USB port. Make sure that you install the driver for your printer and then try it again.

Hp says that the drivers for this printer is already included with Windows 7 and there's no additional software or application needed to run this machine on windows 7 64 bit platform. If you have problem, you can refer to this tutorial by Hp (Hp 845c drivers note), this includes on how to update the drivers so that it would function properly.

Good luck.

Thanks for using FixYa.

You can get the Windows 7 driver here. If this helps, please rate me! :)

Hello there Yjis trick for the jams gave it a go.
You may not see a paper jam.

This may work for you, it has worked for many here I given this advice so gave it a try it could work for you. Generally when this happens, something has fallen into the printer, or a piece of paper has been jammed in there.

First step, remove the ink cartridge, and turn the printer upside down and gently shake it, see if anything comes out.

If nothing goes, or you can't hear anything rattling around, get a piece of cardstock paper (60lb or heavier) and gently push this through the printer, to see if it will help push out what might be stuck in there.
And gave the rode that the ink slides on a good clean and maybe a bit oil on cloth and wipe the rod with it.

Also clean The purge unit, called a spittoon assembly in an HP, Lexmark, Caonon and other inkjet printers, is where the print head assembly parks when not in use, also its other job is to clean and make sure the print head is clean and open for printing.

That is where you'll find the print head assembly parked on top of it.
It also has an electrical pump to milk the print heads and test for ink flow.

So clean all under where the heads are parked and on IP6600D models you can take out the heads just by clipping them out, and then clean well.


Please come back and just gave a vote, it will gave me some satisfaction to know am helping some one so I will keep on helping.

Firts remove the back panel by turning the large knowb in the center. Then if more than 2 pages are stuck inside "gently" pull on all the sheets except the top and bottom ones. They should pull out with moderate resistance. Once thos sheets are ou do the same thing with the remaining two sheets.
NOTE: when a printer is powered on with paper already in the paper path it will usually try to eject them by turning its rollers.
NOTE: some older HP DeskJets when you press the paper feed button (with paper already in printer) it will move the paper in one direction and when you press again it will move the paper in the opposite direction.

that's indicate error code with ink cartridge, open upper cover ink cartridge must in the meddle, if so remove power replace the ink and clean encoder strip by wiping clean cloth. check also that ink docking / refilling station not yet full.

There may be debris blocking the ink flow.

The first tip on this site should clear out the nozzles. Using warm water seems to flush the nozzles out better.

One of the first things I would do is called "footprinting" the cartridge. Remove the cartridge from you machine and firmly press the bottom of the cartridge, the print head, onto a paper towel. Use your other hand to apply even pressure from underneath the paper towel. This, hopefully, will cause ink to bleed out of the cartridge and onto the paper towel. Be aware that you may get ink on you and take measures to prevent it if necessary. A good footprint from that cartridge should yield three small rectangles of the three colors in the cartridge, it is ok if they bleed into each other. If cyan is the only color flowing you can try moistening the paper towel with some warm distilled water and gently holding this against the print head for a short while (30 sec), again ink should come out. If there the cyan is still the only color to flow there is nothing more you can do at home. Return the cartridge if you can.

If however all three colors footprint well then it may be a driver and/or firmware issue with the printer. I would try reinstalling the driver first, then upgrading the firmware is an upgrade is available. Those machine are getting older and probably do not have as much support available as newer machines do.

replace the cartridges

There is some problem with Printer Cartridge. You check your both black and colour cartridge. You can download different types of drivers from this site. Drivers Download
