On POWER ON Print Head Moves Left and right continuously but slowly. Not getting into ready status
SOURCE: HP 7660 "Print Cartridge Cradle is Stuck" Message
I was having same problem but it was a paper jam all the time and then it started to state Cairrage Jam. And what was happening was the unit the cartridges sit in was not going all the way to the right. A little nudge and you could feel it move. Closed lid and sometimes it would print but eventually it would fail. Just replaced but I suspect if you can get to the cairrage you could clean/repair whatever was keeping it from going all the way to the right.
Hope that helps!

Good Day,
One thing you can try instead of deleting the doucment writer is to change the default printer. You can do this by right-clicking on the HP printer icon and selecting "set as default" from the drop down box. Also try turning the printer off and back on aswell as restaring the computer if you have'nt already. Did that printer ever work from that computer? How is it wired, by "switcher" do you mean a shared printer through you network(was printer sharing configured properly), or an A-B printer switch. Please clarify
Hope this helps for now

We found that we had a defective cartridge. We returned it. A replacement cartridge did not cause the printer to callibrate continuously.
