Welcome to the HP support community.

 

I understand that the printhead light is blinking, and I am glad to assist you.

Follow these steps to make sure the printhead is installed correctly.

  • Press the Power button to turn on the printer, if it is not already on.
  • Open the ink cartridge access door and the printer lid. The carriage moves to the center of the printer. Wait until the carriage stops in the center of the printer before you proceed.
  • Figure : Open the ink cartridge access door and the printer lid

  • Disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
  • Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
  • Remove the printhead. You can leave the ink cartridges in the printhead. Lift the lever on the back right corner of the printhead assembly, and then lift out the printhead.

  • Clean the printhead contacts with a cotton swab.
  • Contacts: Clean
  • Nozzle: Do NOT clean
  • Grasp the printhead on both sides with the electrical contacts facing the rear of the printer, and then insert the printhead into the carriage.
  • Figure : Reinsert the printhead
  • Image: Reinsert the printhead.
  • Carefully lower the latch handle on the carriage to secure the printhead.
  • Close the printer lid and ink cartridge access door.
  • Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.
  • Plug the cord back into the wall outlet.
  • Press the Power button to turn on the printer.
