20 Most Recent HP PSC 2175 All-In-One InkJet Printer - Page 3 Questions & Answers


The motor that pushes the scanner for faxes and scanner has finally given up (or a gear broke)... Most only have a 2 year lifecycle. HP has designed it that way. I used to work for HP All in One.. whenever someone would call in for that issues, the document we used ALWAYS (for all units) said "replace" :(

That printer uses a standard USB cable. You can walk into a best buy or fry's electronics and say you need a USB cable for your printer, and they will walk you right there.

Normally yes, but you need to have the software for your model installed, check out the hp website for the latest drivers and software here :

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=nl&lc=nl&dlc=nl&product=90809

choose your OS and download the drivers and software from the next page. After that it should tell you the ink levels. If not, and if your printer is wired to the network, you can surf to its webinterface by typing the ip adress in the browser adress bar. Normally ink levels are shown there also

It is my pleasure to guide you.

These steps will take you through the process of replacement and alignment.
HP PSC 2175 All-In-One InkJet Printer

1. Turn on the unit, then open the print-carriage access door by lifting the
handle until the door locks into place. The print carriage moves to the center of the unit.

2. After the carriage stops moving, lift the latch to release the print cartridge, then pull it toward you out of its slot.

3. If you are removing the black print cartridge in order to install the photo print cartridge, store it in the print cartridge protector.

4. Remove the new print cartridge from its packaging and, being careful to touch only the black plastic, gently remove the plastic tape.

Caution! Do not touch the copper contacts or ink nozzles.

5. Push the new print cartridge into the appropriate slot until it clicks into place. The tri-color print cartridge goes on the left and the black or photo print cartridge goes on the right.

6. Pull the end of the latch toward you, press down until it stops, and then release. Make sure the latch catches below the bottom tabs.

7. Close the print-carriage access door.

align the print cartridges

The HP PSC prompts you to align cartridges every time you install or replace a print cartridge.

Aligning the cartridges ensures high-quality output.

To align the print cartridges when prompted:
1. Press Enter on the front panel. A page of patterns is printed. The cartridges are aligned correctly. Recycle or discard the page.

To align the cartridges at any other time:
1. Press Setup.
2. Press 2, then press 2.
This selects Maintenance, and then selects Align Print Cartridges.

You should reset the printer
To reset it:

1.Unplug it (remove the cable physically) from wall or from back side of the unit
2.Keep two buttons down at the same time:
a.cancel button (pink one)
b.right arrow
Buttons have to be kept together!
3.Plug the printer again (don't release buttons!)
4.After that light under three large oval buttons should turn on for a second (short blink).
If that doesn't help - repeat it. If second trial fails - reinstall the driver which is located here or go to HP service.

If you are satisfied, please rate or/and leave a testimonial. Thanks!

Hello there
You may not see a paper jam.

This may work for you, it has worked for many here I given this advice so gave it a try it could work for you. Generally when this happens, something has fallen into the printer, or a piece of paper has been jammed in there.

First step, remove the ink cartridge, and turn the printer upside down and gently shake it, see if anything comes out.

If nothing goes, or you can't hear anything rattling around, get a piece of cardstock paper (60lb or heavier) and gently push this through the printer, to see if it will help push out what might be stuck in there.
And gave the rode that the ink slides on a good clean and maybe a bit oil on cloth and wipe the rod with it.

Also clean The purge unit, called a spittoon assembly in an HP, Lexmark, Caonon and other inkjet printers, is where the print head assembly parks when not in use, also its other job is to clean and make sure the print head is clean and open for printing.

That is where you'll find the print head assembly parked on top of it.
It also has an electrical pump to milk the print heads and test for ink flow.

So clean all under where the heads are parked and on IP6600D models you can take out the heads just by clipping them out, and then clean well.


Please come back and just gave a vote, it will gave me some satisfaction to know am helping some one so I will keep on helping.
All The Best: Pineworks

The cartridges might not be moving back to there rest stop correctly, check the sponge to the far right Also The clear plastic strip running behind the carriage could be damaged or dirty. this strip tells the printer where the carriage is and if it can not read it, it will cause that message.
Hope this helps
