Carriage will not move--fixed to right
Hi, i think the motor and belt that drags the ink box is weak and needs replacement, all you need do is to get a technician that will help with the repair and replacement of those items that are faulty.
Compliments and wish you best of luck.

Where to place envelope.
This should be in your manual complete with pictures.
You can print a single envelope using the photo/envelope feeder. Insert the envelope into the photo/envelope feeder with the side to be printed facing down and the flap to the left.
You can print multiple envelopes (max 20) from the bottom tray. Temporarily remove the top (output) tray. Slide the paper guide in the bottom tray to the left. Load your envelopes to the far right with the side to be printed down, flaps to the left (I like to tuck the flaps into each envelope so they are less easily jammed, but this is optional). Slide the paper guide to the right snugly against the envelopes. Replace the output tray. Start printing.

Step 1
Check the back of your computer to make sure that the printer is
appropriately connected to the computer and is plugged in. If the
printer is not plugged into the computer, find the printer jack on the
back of the computer and plug it in before you move on to the next
step.

Click on the estimated ink level tab and a graphic will appear indicating how much ink is left in the cartridge.
The tricolor cartridge status light is blinking.
Ink cartridge will go dry up if you don't use them. I would try cleaning the head and do some maintence on it. It looks to me that you have to buy a new black cartridge. I went through the same thing on mine.

2) Push the cleaner bar all the way were it belongs.

My printer isnt printin?

Which lights for ink mean what?
The left lamp is for color cartridge, the right is for black.If one of them blinking mean the ink cartridge missing or printer not recognize it.
Printer is only printing grayscale, need color, hp
This is either because:
1. You only have black ink remaining and your tri-colour cartridge is empty or
2. In the printer driver settings you have selected either: Print Grey scale or Use black only.
I beleive your problem might be the last option.
To fix it :
1. Go to the printer driver (in vista go to: Start, Control panel, Printers, right click on your printer and select "printing preferences").
Now you are inside the printer driver.
2. go to the "color" tab.
3. Tehre you'll see if you have selected wither "Print in grey scale" and/or "Black only".
4. To ensure you get color again, de-select the"Print in grey scale" option.

Poor paper feed with large printings
This is a known issue, the printer is not designed to do large volume. A thicker paper helps a little, as a rougher paper. If you have to use the old plain glossy white typing paper then using "rubber renew" or some other similar product on the pickup rollers helps in the short term. Just keep in mind that inkjets like this are really designed to print a couple pages or to make hard copies of photographs, not for large jobs.
