Fixing The Printer Cartridge
-
Shut
down the HP 6480 by pressing the "On/Off" button on the right side of
the control panel. Some paper jams will clear themselves just by
turning the printer off and starting it again. Wait a few minutes after
the printer has shut down and then turn it on again.
-
Remove
the paper feed tray. If the printer does not clear the paper jam by
itself, shut off the device again. Be sure to pull the tray out gently
to avoid damaging the device.
-
Lift up the automatic document feeder. The feeder makes up the top half of printer, and it can be opened like the hood of a car. Lift the sides of it slowly. This exposes the printer mechanism and ink
cartridges. Pull the jammed paper up and out of the printer mechanism
with both hands. Pull it gently to ensure you don't damage any
components.
-
After
removing the paper, clean off the cylindrical, silver printer roller.
Dampen a clean cloth with distilled water, and gently wipe any dirt,
ink or paper off the roller. Rotate it when you're done cleaning one
side, and continue rotating and cleaning until the roller is clean on
all sides.
-
Close
the automatic printer feeder. After removing all paper, close the top
printer feeder and shake it to ensure it's fastened. Re-attach the
printer tray by lining it up with the arrow markers on both sides of
the printer.
-
Put
one sheet of paper into the printer tray, and reset the HP 6480 by
pressing and holding the "On/Off" button for 15 seconds. The printer
should automatically restart and return to factory settings. It will
run diagnostics and the printer cartridges should begin moving again as
they print a test sheet.
