Hi. I have the printer listed above. I keep getting the message of Printhead alignment error. I have unplugged it and restarted it and could usually get another page or two either printed or copied, but now I can't get anything to print. It just gives me the printhead alignment error message. I've been busy and it worked when I did what mentioned above. Since it totally quit working, I checked into it to find out that the warrantee expired on 6/1/16. This must be a problem on this particular printer, as evidenced by what I've read online. I'm wondering what I can do? Will HP stand behind this printer, since it has this problem, even though it is past the warrantee period by 23 days?

Looks like I will be shipped a replacement printer to exchange for mine. Should get it within two weeks. Thanks.
