Maybe this is the orange light flashing ?

• 

If so, open the front door, remove the two cartridges, and then try to put just one cartridge and check the light.

•    

1. Try first with the color cartridge, check the lights, then remove it.

2. Then try with the black cartridge, check the lights, then remove it.

•  

3. Then put the two cartridges inside and check.

Tell us what is going on ?

Hi. I kinda have the same problem. Mine is an Hp deskjet 3740, and the power button keeps blinking. I've determined that the black ink cartridge is the problem, but it's also new. I replaced it a couple of months ago, and it was working fine up until last week. I barely use the printer so I can't figure it out what happened to it. I cant even get it to print out a test page. what should I do next?
