hp-colorspan help needed

[96redvette]

well, here it is about 3 am and I'm trying to get 2 simple jobs printed that are due tomorrow and guess what???? I'm down!!!

I just replaced the magenta ink container and now I have an "on head error" and it won't let me do anything. It almost like I have a clogged filter or a kink in the line (filters are all about 2 months old and not visible line issues) So here I sit trying everything I can think of.....no fun

Yes, I fixed it...I'm back in action......4 hours later though

so what was the problem????

For the sake of everyone's learning, it's only appropriate when a problem is brought up to atleast share the solution imho.

However, I feel your pain having 2 colorspan's. I have had that issue a few times through the years on my 72s, but I don't remember the details very well.

Haven't had a lot of time to come back to the site. We'll I believe it was a bad batch of ink at first....here I am now about a month later and I am having the same issue. I'm trying to remember how I did it before, but if it is a bad batch of ink, I am screwed until Monday.

I'll be back!
