Why is there a blinking light on my printer?

"Check Print Cartridge" light blinking on HP PSC 1410v All-in-One printer/copier/scanner?

  • I've tried everything on the HP support website (short of buying new cartridges) to fix the problem. Just a few days prior to the check print cartridge light blinking, the printer was printing good, crisp images. Now that I'm trying to copy something - in black and white - the printer is showing a "Check Print Cartridge" light and an E in the "Copies" menu. Is there anything I can do to, short of buying a new printer and/or a new cartridge, to fix this?

  • Answer:

    have you checked your ink levels? When i had that blinking light all i had to do was to replace my colored hp ink cartridges. see the link below for error lights explanation:

With the "E" error, I would say that replacing the ink cartridge may be your only option. I have experienced that error in the past, nad had to replace mine. You can try this, it may just work Disconnect the Universal Serial Bus (USB) cable from the back of the product, but leave the product turned on Open the cover of the product and remove the print cartridges Close the cover and wait for the Insert Ink Cartridges message to display Disconnect the power cord from the back of the product and wait for one minute Reconnect the power cord. If the product does not automatically turn on, press the Power button Open the cover and reinsert the print cartridges Close the cover. If prompted, print a calibration page. Reconnect the USB cable, and try to print a print job from the computer
