What to do if a printer Won't turn On - 11 Methods

[@marysnyder5547]

didn't find the solution, but this is the best answer I have found. thank you for being straight forward.

[@PeterPan-gi4py]

I made number 4. I remove the power cord from the printer (canon ip3300) and from the socket for few minutes not an hour, and it is alive again! Thank you.

[@waynejohnsons5020]

This was an absolutely amazing video. Well Done

[@VickyLatorreArt]

Thank you so much for sharing this. In my case it was the surge protector. I had it connected on a surge protector for a few years and now it doesn't turn on if I connect it to one. No matter what kind of surge protector it won't turn on but If I connect it directly to the wall it works perfectly fine. Thanks again.

[@supaa4512]

@Lukas P same, except i had mine connected to a surge protector for 10 years lol

[@YOU_CREATE_YOUR_OWN_KARMA_369]

@iRealZeta ... wtf you mean “same”... lol read what they actually said it’s not the same.

[@VickyLatorreArt]

@Lukas P I wish I can suggest something to help but I don't know why mine works now. I thought that the surge protector was damage but it is not. I plugged other things to it and it works fine. The only thing I can think of, in my case, is that maybe a printer update is blocking the use of a surge protector. I don't even know if that is possible but, in your case, did you try a new surge protector? Maybe in your case it could help.

I have the canon pixma ip110. Has always worked great. Used it 2 weeks ago, no issue. Went to use today and it will only stay on for 15 seconds, then shuts off. Does this with the plug and the battery. Have plugged into the wall socket, no difference. I made sure the " auto power " was disabled. Any suggestions???

[@viandant5]

May be a problem with the power supply board

[@majasamper2139]

Thank you for this! The first method worked right away, I wasn't aware that my wall outlet was malfunctioning :)

[@lunamizi]

I did all your recomendations including replacing the AC Power Adapter and stil the hp 6700 Premuum does not turning on. i think the probkem is with main flat cable going to the tuch screen panel. if you have any saggesion how i can chek if the flat cable is functining corect. thank ABY

[@viandant5]

Changing the power adapter I think is useless. The problem could be the power supply. Why do you think the problem is the flat cable?

[@lunamizi]

@@viandant5 I removed the flat cable, cleaned it and all parts with Alcohol 70% and placed the flat cable back. The power suplply is correct and all other isroment that connected to are functioning.

[@anniebenge9750]

Well! I wouldn't have believed this. Tip No. 1 - try a different wall socket. Me: "This is not easy! As if this this is going to work!!!" - OMG - it did! The printer has fired up and is printing off the print queue. Thank you so much.

Hi. I replaced with a new original cartridge HP 932 Black. The print Carriage starts mooving Fast and then stioped moving . I found that was terible leaking before I replaced the Bkack cartridge (932 XL) with a new origina hp 932 XL. I folowed your instructins and absorbed and cleaned all the ink from inside the printer . Afterword when replaced all parts and the carriage in it place, the printer does not turning on. Pleas read my other comment . I appriciate any help. thank you ABY

[@viandant5]

May be the ink is leaked over an electronic board. Which is the printer?

Hello. I head clean the l360 printer when I turn on the power button at first its working then while in the middle of head cleaning the printer shut down and it won't turn on. How can I resolve this? tsk

[@viandant5]

I think there is a contact inside the printer that does not work well. Try to open the printer and check the connessions between the printer carriage and the main board

[@cherylween4973]

Bought a HP OfficeJet 6978 less then 3 weeks ago. It worked great until it got a simple paper jam. Cleared the paper jam, now the unit won't turn on at all. There's definitely power going to the unit (little green light comes on in the back when the power cord is plugged in and goes out when unplugged). When I go to unplugged it, the window in the front of the printer flashes on for a second. Does this POS have a reset button somewhere an/or a fuse?

[@viandant5]

there are no fuses. try to unplug the printer, remove the cartridges then plug the printer and turn it on.

[@henrik4835]

What is the name of song in intro? I have been looking for it for a long time but cant find it.

[@Youtubervideos125]

Good morning. I have an HP Officejet 5510xi all-in-one printer and the power went out with it. So I change the adaptor and buy a new one. However, When I plug in the printer am seeing light inside at the top but the printer is not turning on. Please help

[@viandant5]

I think the probelm is not the adaptor or the power supply. Are you sure the adaptor is suitable for your printer? it could be a fuse, or the main board. probably you have to bring the printer to a repair center.

[@GMNestorPL]

Hi! Thanks for posting all these videos, very helpful. My problem is with samsung's CLP-320, it won't turn on. Tried all the methods above. Long press does nothing. Although once it turned on for a while and then shut down, I wasn't able to bring it back since. I've disassembled it, checked if the power goes into the power unit using a multimeter (it does). I'm considering buying a new mainboard on ebay. Is there any advice you could give me?

[@viandant5]

Check the High Power supply, may be the problem is there.

[@deltapafox3103]

If it is a capacitor problem.. how van I retrieve the ink cartridges if it won't start .i.e. the carriage won't move to the centre etc.

[@viandant5]

Move the gear inside the printer on the left, it will free the cartridge holder. In this channel there is a video

[@deltapafox3103]

@@viandant5 Thanks. I managed to free it but still nothing so it's probably a capacitor

Sir, how to check the Cannon Printer LBP2900B Power Board since printer won't turn on.Checked fuse, switch,capacitor,all are OK.But I don't hear 24 Volts relay on or off sound,does it mean problem with relay and related DC Supply to printer itself.

Hi I, I took the head out of an Epson XP 422, exactly as shown, thanks! However, I got all the holes clean and flowing and put back the head and reassembled. I forgot the big ribbon to the head! I turned it on and got an error message saying fatal error visit service center or something. I turned it off, unplugged and reinserted the ribbon and now it is completely dead it wont come back on. I took the ribbon out (it came on just once without it). It won't come on. I've left it off, held on power etc whilst plugging it in, it wont come on. Does it have a hard reset process or something to clear the error like a service center might do? I'm about to throw it in the bin. :) (I'll never buy another Epson).

What if my printer powers on both with the power supply and with the battery, but the inkjet heads won't move and won't align. The drivers work perfectly fine, but whenever i tell the printer to print something nothing happens. No response. Also when i press a button on my printer which should make my printer print out a test print nothing happens. Again, no response. Also my printer won't respond when i connect it to my PC via the Serial port, but it would sometimes respond when i connect it via a USB cable, but even then it prints out just some random lines. No text, no photos, nothing. The printer is a HP Deskjet 450.

Ciao, ottimo video sto cercando di riparare la mia Epson wf 2510. La stampante si accendeva ma dava un errore di paper jam e dopo aver verificato e risaldato un transistor e riparato il connettore flap largo della testina la stampante non parte ma posso udire un piccolo beep proveniente da dietro (mainboard o PS direi). Non sono molto esperto ma la mainboard mi sembra non avere grossi problemi (a parte forse la eeprom che mi da corto in tre punti) e il PS da 42v non saprei dato che l ho testato e da 42,2v in un verso e 41,1v nell altro. A tuo parere cosa potrebbe essere? Comlimenti per il video!
