HP Photosmart D5160 InkJet Printer Logo
Anonymous Posted on Oct 23, 2009

Red exclamation mark keeps flashing. No message on screen, just a bar going round and round the periphery of the screen. Printer will not work. The round green power button remains on, without flashing. The rectangular green print button is not illuminated. Every so often it seems to try to print but nothing happens. I changed the cartridges and it did print a test page without problem.

I've looked it up and seems that it's a common problem and you need to flicker the CD door up and down a bit till your printer recognizes it's fully shut!!!
stupid HP can't get their stuff to work properly
hope i did a better job
:D

Testimonial: "You did indeed do a better job. So simple a solution, yet so unlikely. It does seem to be printing again. Many thanks. Peter"

    Flicking the CD door worked! Actually I shut it hard and that seemed to do it. Thanks for the help.

How do I know which ink cartridge is Empty on my Canon MX922 printer?

It's the blinking one! You should also get a message on the screen and the 'empty' cartridge should have a cross or exclamation mark on top of it.

I have an officejet 5610 all-in-one inkjet printer. There is an ornage exclamation mark next to the setup between the pound sign and the setup button that keeps blinking. How do I get it to quit. I...

The Exclamation mark is an Attention: error indicator. There is a problem that you need to fix. You need to fix the problem. Was there is any message on the LCD screen when you started having the error?

Press Cancel and try printing again since you apparently cleared the LCD message. The problem could be a paper jam, no paper in the paper tray (or the printer can't pick up the paper), an ink issue or something else.

Please add a comment with the error message for additional support. I need more information to tell you what steps are most likely to solve your problem.

I bought the Polaroid Pogo mobile printer.when I first used it, it worked well.today I tried to use it and it is just not working. My phone seems the picture but the printer gets a red flashing light how...

That depends on which red light is flashing. If the battery light is flashing, that means the battery is exhausted. Fix it by charging the battery.
If the status light is flashing red, that means the paper is jammed. Fix this by opening the paper door and pulling out the media. Full instructions are on page 3 of the manual.
The battery light is the one marked with a battery. The status light is the one marked with an exclamation point inside a triangle.

Get error message "Printer error: see your documentation and call service if necessary."

I found this on another website and it worked for me. It apparently resets the printer. Hope it works for you:

1.) power on (error message)
2.) press the "Stop (triangle)" and the "Colour copy" button and hold them
3.) press the power button to power off, still hold 2.)
4.) press the power button to power on, still holding 2.)
5.) the LEDs start to flash, then they stop to flash and the red exclamation mark starts to flash. Now release 2.)

6.) the LED should say: "Init EEprom"
7.) now press and hold the power button until the printer powers off and powers on again.

New Saeco Odeo Go has solid red exclamation mark, doesn't budge

You have to 'manually' prime the pump: When the red exclamation mark shows, press the water switch on the right side (the picture of the water drip), then open up the steam nozzle and let the machine pump hot water into a cup until the red light goes out.
