Greetings Pete and list-- 



I don't want to sound like a 'know-it-all', and, judging by you posts, you are a knowledgeable individual, but when you replaced the ink cartridge, did you remember to peel off the tape that's typically put on them?  I can't tell you how many times a failure to pull off the tape has been the cause of an apparently functional printer to fail to print. 



HTH...

Subject: [PCBUILD] printer problem 

I am trying to help a local charity. They got an HP T45xi all-in-one printer 
at a yard sale. It printed one sheet and quit printing. They put in new ink 
cartridges, but still not printing. Mechanically, it goes through the paper 
feed and apparent printing, but no ink is put on paper. I tried doing a 
reset (pressing "*8" at power on), but still no results. Anyone have an 
idea? Unfortunately, these printers end up being throw away items, but it 
would be nice to get it going. 

  

Thank you for any input for this model.
