Catnip Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Howdy. I need some help with my HP Officejet 6210 All-in-One printer. It was printing out random crap, so I turned it off. Now, when I try to turn it back on, it won't turn on. No websites I've checked have anything about anything like this. Can anyone help?

Catnip Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 Is this the wrong forum, or are you mocking me for the hell of it? Because I don't appreciate it either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Wright Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Try printing something on Microsoft Word. I know you said it doesn't turn on, but my printer has done this before when trying to print out an email. I thought it was off (I didn't see a light turn on), but it printed the page I needed anyway. See if this'll do the same for you. I have an HP Officejet K80 all-in-one lol.

Ansem Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Check if the power switch accidently pugged out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catnip Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) Big Boss: Nothing happened, except another document added to a list of "Pending Documents" that has appeared in the bottom right corner of my screen. Vivek: I've checked all connections. Nothing is loose or out. Edited January 18, 2010 by Catnip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shroudening Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 It may be defected, or there may be a problem within the printer itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catnip Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 Vivek: The whole thing doesn't turn on. This particular thing does everything, and also has a screen that lights up with text, etc. when it is on. Isaac55: Looks like that's probably the answer...but I wonder why it chose to break now.

prompto Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Unplug everything and then replug it maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catnip Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 Unplug everything and then replug it maybe? I've done so with the power multiple times, and that seems to be the only thing affected, as my computer acknowledges the fact that I DO have a printer that ISN'T printing correctly. For the record, thank you all for your suggestions, very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ike-Mike Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Try calling the help line, though keep in mind that it's outsourced in HP's case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inactive Account Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 If it doesn't turn on at all (no indicator lights or anything) it's probably a faulty power connection... is anything lighting up at all? Does it make any noise when you turn it on? The fact that your computer recognizes it suggests to me that it is turning on, but is having internal errors. I'd suggest uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers, though, just in case it's got something to do with those... otherwise, calling the helpline's probably your best bet (even though helplines are usually lame.)
