Product: HP Officejet Pro 8620
Operating System: macOS 10.13 High Sierra

My well-used Officejet Pro 8620  stopped printing, giving me error code 0xc19a0045, The printhead appears to be missing, not detected, or incorrectly installed.  It presented two "Solutions" - Solution 1: Reinstall the printheads.  Touch Show Me to be guided through printhead installation.  Solution 2: Contact HP support.

 

"Show Me" would not show itself.  I went to HP support, found manual directions for reinstalling printhead, tried that twice.  No joy.  I noticed that black ink was dripping from printhead (glad to find it easily washable).  I considered revisiting manual to find out how to clean printhead, but decided to follow support site suggestion to contact support community first.

@harpcarter, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

If you have already performed the steps from the document  '0xc19a0005' or Similar Error Code Displays and the issue persists, it could be a hardware failure.

 

Please reach out to the HP Support in your region regarding the service options for your printer.

 

Hope this helps!
