Hi all:
I have a HP psc 950 (4 in 1) and never had problems with it until now, I
just recently change the black cartridge (first time) and it keeps on
prompting me to enter to align the cartridges, I did it and it says
alignment failed and to press enter to align the cartridges, I tried this
several times, I read the book and doesn't say anything else. I even clean
the cartridges. I was able to print something from the computer, just a
test from notepad and it worked. I need to make copies and this function
doesn't work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i just encountered this problem after so many years of changing and aligning print cartridges without a hitch, same as you encountered, "alignment failed" and back to "press enter to align print cartridges", what you can do is to just bypass the alignment all together and proceed to what you need to use your all in one, here is what you need to do, press and hold the "ENTER" button and press the "SETUP" button once and the lcd screen will clear out the alingmnet message and skip the alignment of cartridges and your back to where you are before you change the black cartridge. hope this helps.....jerry (CA)
