Hi all!
I got the ol' good HP 710 DeskJet. If there is anyone else who's into
ancient history here's my question. What does the orange flashing led
below the two buttons on the right mean exactly? I got no ink, damaged head
or what? I know the color container is fine, the black is kindda old and has
been refilled couple of times but it definetely gots ink and worked fine
just yesterday. So what is the problem?

It's called the print cartridge light. I assume if it blinks that
means you're low on ink, or your cartridges are not working properly. Or
perhaps your printer doesn't recognize the cartridges.

Run the self test for the ink jets - 4 presses of the paper feed
button with the on button pressed all the time - that will tell you if
there are jets missing from the pattern, might be your problem.

Doesn't seem to be working but..... nevermind. Arready ordered a black
cartridge. We'll see.

Thanks for taking interest.
