This post sounds like my problem with one addition issue: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Install-Setup/I-have-a-HP-Officejet-J6480-All-in-One...

 

The carriage is jammed to the right, and there is a piece of plastic (that looks like it belongs there) that is preventing me from removing the ink cartridges.  There doesn't appear to be any thing jamming the carriage.  I cannot find any way to move the piece of plastic and I cannot slide the carriage either direction.

 

I do not hear any grinding when the carriage tries to move.  It sounds like the carriage settling into position when I turn on/off.
