HP deskjet 3755 Printing Blank Pages

[Mariam2003]

I got this printer back in 2019 and had it stored for a while in my room. After opening it now in 2020 and using the ink for the first time, the printer is printing blank pages.

Hi @Mariam2003,

I'd like to help you !

To better assist you - 

1) Does the copy print out the same way? 

2) What's the application you are trying to print from? Have you tried printing from a different application or devices? 

Meanwhile, try the suggestions below-

Manually clean the area around the ink nozzles

If you see track marks or smears on the printouts, clean the area around the ink nozzles.

1. Gather the following materials:

   • A clean, lint-free cloth or a clean, dry cotton swab

   • Distilled or bottled water

        CAUTION: 

     Do not use tap water because it might contain contaminants that can damage the printhead.

2. Open the ink cartridge access door.

   The carriage moves to the center of the printer.

3. Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you continue.

4. Lightly press down on one of the ink cartridges to release it, and then pull the ink cartridge toward you out of its slot.

      CAUTION: 

   Do not remove both ink cartridges at the same time. Remove and then clean each ink cartridge one at a time. Do not leave an ink cartridge outside the printer for more than 30 minutes.

5. Hold the ink cartridge by its sides.

6. Lightly dampen a clean, lint-free cloth or swab with bottled or distilled water.

7. Clean the face and edges around the ink nozzle with the cloth or swab.

      CAUTION: 

   Do not clean the ink nozzle plate.

   1. Nozzle plate - Do not clean

   2. Area surrounding ink nozzle - Do clean

   3. Ink cartridge contacts - Do not clean

8. Wait 10 minutes for the cleaned area to dry before you continue.

9. Hold the ink cartridge by its sides with the contacts toward the printer, insert the ink cartridge into its slot, and then gently push the ink cartridge until it snaps into place.

10. Repeat these steps to clean around the nozzles on the other ink cartridge.

11. Close the ink cartridge access door.
