Hi @wilgrfam,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.
I know how frustrating it is when your HP DeskJet 4155e spits out blank pages despite having fresh cartridges. Let’s tackle this step-by-step with a clear approach to get your printer back to vibrant, full-color output:
Steps to Fix Blank Printing Issue
1. Check Ink Cartridges & Seating
- Power off the printer, open the cartridge access door, and remove both cartridges.
- Inspect the gold contacts and nozzles, especially on Cyan and Magenta, for any ink residue or damage.
- Reinsert them firmly until they click into place. Genuine HP cartridges installed correctly typically resolve this issue.
2. Print a Diagnostic/Test Page
- Use the control panel or HP App to print a test/diagnostic page.
- If that page is also blank, it indicates a hardware or ink delivery problem rather than a document formatting issue.
3. Clean the Printhead
- Use the Clean Printheads option from the printer’s menu or within the HP App.
- If it’s still blank after the first cycle, run it again; clogged nozzles are a common culprit.
4. Power Cycle the Printer
- Turn off the printer, unplug the power cord for 60 seconds, then plug it back in and turn it on.
- This resets internal components and often clears stuck errors.
5. Update or Reinstall Drivers
- Make sure your printer driver and firmware are up to date.
- Download the latest version from HP’s Official HP® Support site to ensure smooth communication.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have an amazing day!
