Usually this defect is caused by the cleaning station that may be stuck.

SOURCE: The carriage is stalled message on my hp officejet H470 printer

Check the printer again to see if a very small jam is present. If totally clear, press the Resume button. If same result, power the printer Off / On.

HP Officejet Pro K8600 CARRIAGE STALLED

Hi,

Make sure that you have tried the steps in the following web link:

https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c01287261

If the issue persists, then this is a hardware issue. From my experience Carriage Stalled errors are usually due to a hardware failure.

Started with paper jam and then after that. Error message. Carriage Jam, print carriage access door. Clear and press ok. can't figure out what this means

If you are getting a 'carriage jam' error as soon as you turn on your printer with no tasks in progress, then check for any piece of paper stuck in the carriage. Remove the paper carefully. If the paper tears, part of it might remain inside the paper path and damage the product.

Follow the steps for fix HP Printer Carriage Jam

  • Turn off the printer and open it to see where the paper is stuck.
  • Manually move the carriage toward the opposite side.
  • Check the paper path and remove any piece of paper or any other object that is stuck in the path.
  • Reconnect the power cord and turn on the printer.

The printing carriage stalled and I get error message : Clear carriage jam ..

This normally happens if there is something jammingthe head assembly from moving along the carriage rail. Turn off the power to the printer and see if you can move the head assembly by hand. Also check that there are no paper jams anywhere in the paper path and that the belt that moves the head assembly has not broken.

It starts printing, then stops, the printer cartrige is jammed

Try emoving the duplex cartridge on the back (return printer to it's original configuration) and try printing. If the printer prints OK, then re-attach the duplexer checking for anything that could interfere with the print cartridge.

If the printer doesn't print, then I suspect something has fell into the printer and is creating enough resistance for the printer to detect and report. Turn the printer off, Remove all the cables from it. Try inverting the printer and gently shake it to see if anything falls out that could be jamming the printer cartridge.

Not printing

If either a paper jam or blocked carriage error message appears
in the front panel display there might be some packing material
inside the HP Officejet. Lift open the print-carriage access door to
expose the print cartridges and remove any packing material or
other items that do not belong there.
