Open the cartridge access door. The carriage might try to move into the access area at the right. Allow the carriage to move to that position.

It is stuck to the left. How do I get it to move... i can't grab it
I have, as noted, an HP C 3180. The carriage is stuck to the far left, so that I can't grab it. Please identify what you would suggest... the front is open so that I can see the carriage, i just can't grab it.
There seems to be a problem with the cradle not "lifting" itself up and over what appears to be some sort of guide. Open the cartridge access and unplug the power. Try pushing the carriage to the far right but don't force it if you find resistance. Rock the cradle gently back by hand (it will only move a few millimeters) and move it all the way to the right into its bay. Cycle the printer power and it should be fine. If it will not go into the service station (SS) area on the right, I would recommend to service the product to prevent further damage on the unit. They will have to do some disassembly to check the carriage drive motor and main electronic board.
Hope it helps.

hi,
is the ink cartridge you replaced hp brand or did you refill it this is an incompatibility code from the software. some brands and cartridges are not fully compatible and creates an e code error code. if it is hp brand it is likely a defective sensor chip in the ink cartridge. i would for best assurance return the cartridge for a different one and then recheck. if niot you may need to restore your software or reinstall it most of the time this will fix the problem.
hope this helps..happy computing!

only thin you can do is unforced the ink cart out

If a black cartridge will not print, with no error messages, it is probably th printhead. Clean it with proper cleaning solution. Refilled ones if done yourself or by someone else, can also have air bubbles, Try blowing down refill hole with tissue under the cartridge to stop ink spills. Also, if you press a folder non scented wipe under the cartridge firmly, you should get a solid little black line or impression. This will tell you if the ink is getting down ok. Try reprinting.

I have had this happen. The easy way to fix, is put a ***** driver, or similar, down to the blue clip and press down. whilst doing this gently pull the holder back. it seems to happen if you dont close the blue clip correctly.
