HP Deskjet 3050A each time I turn off printer it prints a diagnostic alignment page. Can this be bypassed or turned off?

Hm...I have had my 3050 All-in-one for years, and the only time it printed an alignment page was after having replaced an ink cartridge. Otherwise, it never printed said page. Try: www.hp.com/support

there is a way to reset the printer to factory settings, I had to do it a few times when I had this printer. Call HP and ask them for the reset sequence.

Could be a couple of things. I'd suggest going into Printer Maintenance (in the HP software - printer) and do a clean-print-head. If that does not do it I'd try align-print-head. Most likely it just needs to go through one or both of these ink cartridge head calibrations. Hope that helps.

No it is not. Never made sense to me since it duplex prints. So I keep an old Dell printer in the back room for duplex scans. Maybe a firmware update would give me duplex scan? Don't know. Call Dell for further info.

I'm having the same problem, attempting to troubleshoot. Printer keeps going offline and the only fix seems to be uplug it and plug it back in.

I am not sure on that one. My HP had no troubles. It did have to do a realignment that is did automatically. Works perfectly.

I Really Can Provide No Positive Or Negative Information Here , I Was Told By A Local Electronic Repair Shop , That HP Has Some Sort Of Install Software Or Sensors That Knows When Your Not Using Their Products , I Don't Know How Correct This Is , I Guess My HP 6500 Had Control Board Issues , Other Than That I Liked The Product Mentioned , Was Easy To Use With Care And Patience , And Price Was Very Reasonable ?

I don't really know, but if it were my printer, I would unplug it and see if it would reset itself. If not, re-install the computer with the disc. I use mine a lot with eBay and use cheap ink, cheap paper and it does a decent job. For real quality, I use another printer. This printer seems to be a faithful work horse.

HP's page says "manual" duplex, "driver support provided." I have no idea what that means. Perhaps that you print all odd pages, then re-insert and print even ones? Not convenient. I know from experience.

Try holding the off button several seconds to turn it completely off. Then restart your computer and then turn the printer back on. Hope this works for you. I can't wait til I can afford to buy a new one.

Firstly, never, ever turn it off. If you do, say there is a power cut when it is printing, the teeth in the cubes will jamb and the cost of repair is more than a new Samsung printer. Secondly, paper jams are frequent. We could solve this for a short while by cleaning all the rollers and making sure the sensor was clear. But it would soon happen again. Any paper less than 22lbs fails continually. We ended up using 25 lb paper to solve the issue for longer periods.

I haven't had that problem, but you need to check something. There is a check box in printer settings that asks if you want to let the printer process the print for you (not in those words, but you'll find it). It is checked by default, but you may have turned it off. Turn it back on and see if that helps. Every print I have made is exactly as I intended, but that may be your answer. If it isn't, email Canon's tech support. They are second to none, and you will get your answer. Hope that helps! I wouldn't get rid of my Pro 10 unless you shot me and took it! The black and white images are simply amazing. I haven't had that problem, but you need to check something.

I'm not quite sure I know what you mean. If you've put in new print heads then you want to go to tools and run an alignment check. You MUST be sure the print heads are in correctly. I suggest you get out the owner's manual and double check the installation. If the print heads are NOT in correctly, you can do serious damage to your printer. I hope this is the information you want.
