20 Most Recent HP cp1700 Color Inkjet Printer Questions & Answers

I have the identical problem with an HP Business Inkjet 1100.

Once cartridges were past date, the printer would no longer print from Windows XP. It would however work perfectly from Linux.

I did not find an ini file as mentioned in other posts, and I really did not want to open the printer as it worked fine in Linux.

The following fixed the problem:

1) Click on Start button, run
2) Type in regedit, enter
3) Navigate to HKLM/software/Hewlett-Packard/HP Printers/HPWH Toolbox/Common
4) In the right panel, right click on Ink, pick modify
5) Change 0100 to 0000
6) Save and reboot

You can try using it and hope that it will work. If it doesn't then you will have to buy a new one. Don't worry nothing bad will happen to your printer.

I don't own one of these or I'd be glad to send you a photo. Try going to a retail office supply store where they sell this printer and take the photo.

Its the cable which attaches to the lcd display, you have to press on the contact areas where the cable attaches to the lcd glass and circuit board.

Please check the cartridge page yield before procuring it. Check the cartridge part number last digit, if it is suffix with "A" it will only last 1400 page yield, if it is lasting with "AD" it will last up-to 2000 page yield. Also double check the toner cartridge is originally made by HP. No chance for logic fault.
