@ballenjr,

Welcome to HP Forums, this is a great place to get support, find answers and tips.


Thank you for posting your query, I'll be more than glad to help you.

I understand that you are getting cartridge empty error message even after replacing the cartridges for your HP Photosmart C6200 All-in-One Printers.

 

This issue could occur if the electrical contacts on the printer or the cartridge are not clean.

 

Let's go through a few steps to resolve this issue.

 

And here's the step by step guide for you in the link:  An 'Ink Cartridge(s) Empty' Message Displays on the Product

 

Also, let us know the operating system installed on the computer from the link: Windows Operating System or Mac Operating System 

 

Let me know how this works.
 

You have a good day ahead.

@karl1940,

Welcome to HP Forums, this is a great place to get support, find answers and tips.


Thank you for posting your query, I'll be more than glad to help you out.

 

I understand that your HP printer does not shut down properly.

 

In order to assist you better, please let us know the model number of the unit and the operating system installed on the computer from the links below: 

 

1. Finding Your HP Product Model Number

 

2. Windows Operating System or Mac Operating System 

 

In the meantime, you may try the following steps to reset the printer:

 

1.Turn the printer on, if it is not already on.
2.Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you continue.
3.With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
4.Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
5.Wait at least 60 seconds.
6.Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
NOTE: HP recommends connecting the printer power cord directly to the wall outlet.
7.Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.
8.Turn on the printer, if it does not automatically turn on. The printer might go through a warm-up period. The printer lights might flash, and the carriage might move.
9.Wait until the warm-up period finishes and your printer is idle and silent before you proceed.

 

You have a good day ahead.

Recently my HP Photo Smart c310 began refusing to pull paper from the Main tray.  After doing all sorts of things, it began pulling from the main tray, but now it only prints out blank sheets quickly with a feww interspersed with whole page of gibberish.  I have tried reinstalling, with no solution.  A test page is printed perfectly.
