HP Deskjet 4488 printer problem

[jatt]

Dear frnds,
Here is HP DeskJet 4488 printer. It’s not working with color cartridge while working well with only single cartridge (black).Replaced cartridges with new one. But no solution. And after that I replaced its complete cartridge set with another working printer but no solution. Please suggest me if here is anyone know to printer repair. Also suggest a good website to find out printer repair manuals for free. Thanks in advance

Maybe you have enabled Grey Scale (black and white) printing as default.
Make it colour.


did you try printing with alternate documents?

Can you upload a sample for us to see the problem?

Has printer detected new cartridge?
I remember when I installed a new color cartridge (original HP) it kept on showing alignment issues again and again but finally stopped after I removed it and installed it around 3-4 times.

Then I suggest to refit the cartriges properly.

Take it to service centre, maybe its time for a repair

Hey man. Printers are complicated devices and some defects cant be fixed by yourself.
We suggested most of basic methods. It didnt work. Then its broke.

and yes, you didnt waste you're time here. You might've wasted ours
no offence.

Try doing a factory reset - How to Reset Hewlett-Packard (HP) All-in-one Printers (I know your printer isn't mentioned here, but searching for F4488 got me not results)

Else, taking it for repair is the only solution.
