Hi @Walt1231,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

The HP DeskJet 4155e printer typically comes with software that allows you to align and clean the cartridges through your computer. Here are general steps that should help you perform these tasks:

 

To Align the Cartridges:

Install HP Smart App:

  • Make sure you have the HP Smart app installed on your computer or mobile device. If not, download and install it from the official HP website.

Open HP Smart App:

  • Open the HP Smart app on your computer or mobile device.

Select Your Printer:

  • Choose your HP DeskJet 4155e printer from the list of available devices.

Access Printer Toolbox:

  • Look for an option like "Printer Toolbox" or "Printer Maintenance" within the app.

Follow On-screen Instructions:

  • Look for an option to align the cartridges and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the alignment process.

 

To Clean the Cartridges:

Access Printer Toolbox:

  • Open the HP Smart app.

Select Your Printer:

  • Choose your HP DeskJet 4155e printer.

Navigate to Printer Maintenance:

  • Find an option like "Printer Toolbox" or "Printer Maintenance."

Locate Cartridge Cleaning:

  • Look for an option related to cartridge maintenance or cleaning.

Follow On-screen Instructions:

  • Follow the on-screen instructions to initiate the cartridge cleaning process.

 

Manual Method (On the Printer):

If you prefer to perform these tasks directly on the printer, you can try the following.

 

Load Paper:

  • Load plain white paper into the input tray.

On the Printer Control Panel:

  • Press the Setup button on the printer's control panel.

Navigate to Tools:

  • Use the arrow keys to navigate to the "Tools" or "Maintenance" option.

Align Cartridges:

  • Look for an option to align the cartridges and follow the prompts on the screen.

Clean Cartridges:

  • Look for an option to clean the cartridges and follow the on-screen instructions.

 

Remember, the specific steps may vary slightly depending on the printer model and the software version. Refer to your printer's manual or the HP website for model-specific instructions if needed.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
