Usually the deskjet HP printer can be hand cleaned and work like new.

I use rubbing alcohol and a piece of lint free cotton cloth, one of my old 
under shirts, and clean the slide bar the cartridges ride on and wipe off the 
feed rollers, remove the cartridges and gently wipe off the head.  Then 
gently clean the area the cartridges set in when all the way to the left. 
 Replaces the cartridges and run a test copy by holding in the button below 
the green on light for five seconds.

Unless the is something mechanical wrong this should get you back in business.

  ( I have used this procedure least a dozen times)_
