You can Bypass Alignment using the below steps  this is only for  

 HP officejet J4500 & J4600

Press and hold the Settings button, and then press OK” while All-in-one shows Align cartridges message.

OK, I've got a different problem. The alignment will not turn off! It will give a partial alignment and then kick out the paper, with the message "press enter to align cartridges" etc. I need to either turn the alignment off or figure out a way to get it to complete the alignment so I can proceed to printing.

What printer model?

Yeah, it's the psc 2210 all in one. I just discovered how to turn off the pesky alignment message. Hold the setup button and then press "options". The message will go away and you are ready to print!

Hi,

Follow the below steps to by pass the alignment.

“Press and hold the Settings button, and then press OK” while All-in-one shows Align cartridges message.

Note: If you bypass the alignment the printer quality may be poor.

HELP!  I have a HP Photosmart Express.  When I changed an ink cartridge this last time, it went through the standard alignment process.  Fine, not a problem.  However, I usually turn off my printer when I'm not using it, or at least in shutting down for the day and now, every time I now turn the printer on to print something, it wants to go through the alignment process.  

So the alignment process has been done.  I turn the printer off.  I turn the printer on the next day to print something and it wants to print out another alignment before printing my document.

Any ideas??  

Thank you.

Same problem here... every time a shut down my computer or printer (designjet 130r) restarting it is a nightmare...

Aligning procedure is repeated every time by start-up so printing one single A4 page takes 3 extra pages and 15min extra of my time.

It's simple not doable.

How can I skip this procedure????

Is this the official HP 'help' forum?

If I notice that the previous post produced no answer.....it's nearly  2 months old....
