The red attention indicator light and the toner indicator light are both flashing together

HELP REQUIRED Both the red attention indicator light and the toner indicator light are flashing together. I can print 1 page after turning the printer off and on and then both the lights flash again and the printer then doesn't print. I have cleaned out the printer and added a new toner cartridge and the paper tray is half full.

ON your driver check that the paper size is correct and this most commonly occurs when the incorrect paper size is selected. For example if you are printing to A4 and you have letter size installed in the machine then the system will cause an error or jam when there is nothing there.

Also within word or which ever program you are using on the document goto file and then down to page setup once in there check the paper size make sure it's correct for the paper in your machine also check the paper source. Once you have done this check the paper tray guides are correctly against the paper turn on and try printing and hopefully this will work.

Thanks J

  • I take it you are refilling the toner cartridge...
  • Switch the printer off.
  • Press and hold the green button on your printer and turn the printer on. You will see that the lights flash for a moment and then turn off. After a few seconds, the attention light will turn on followed by ready light and the green light. Keep pressing the green button. In a few seconds, the attention light and the ready light will turn off.
  • Push the toner rotate button while you continue pressing the green button. As you briefly push the toner button, you will see the light flashing. Release both the toner button and the green button.
  • Repeatedly push the red button (cancel button). Now all the working lights on the printer will turn off.
  • Open and close the lid of HP printer once. The light will start blinking.
  • Press the green button. Your HP toner cartridge chip will be reset.

    The flashing means that the toner and/or the imaging drum is empty or missing (printing halts on these errors). Lights on steady means low toner.

    Attention Light Flashing

    Unfortunately, HP didn't make this indicator very descriptive. Their product specification page for this printer states that the blinking Attention light, "indicates that the printer media input trays are empty, the print cartridge door is open, the print cartridge is missing, or other errors".

    You've already changed the print cartridge and the light is still blinking, so you should take a look at the other conditions described such as an empty paper tray, open door, and so forth. You also will want to look for a paper jam or carriage jam. These are two very common errors that will result in a blinking Attention light.

    HP.com does provide a web page that describes a specific problem associated with a blinking Attention light:

    Job Stuck in Queue

    See if any of these suggestions work out for you. If not, post back your results along with anything else that you've learned about the problem. Good luck.

    Flashing Lights

    From the User Guide:

    Black, Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow Supplies Status lights
    These lights indicate when a print cartridge is low (the light is on), or empty or missing (the
    light blinks). The lights also indicate when a non-HP print cartridge is installed (the light
    blinks and the Attention light is on).

    If you don't have a User Guide click on the link below and save it for future reference.

    Light keeps flashing red,amber, green

    If you turn off the printer and turn it back on, do you get any noises, ie motor noises, or does it instantly go to all lights flashing?
    If you get no noises this usually indicates a board fault and you should look for a new printer.
