That yellow ink delivery failure will look like it is fixed when you put a new head in until it runs out of ink was my experience. I tried everything but no way to fix it and no support for the DJ130 anymore. The 130 does have a nice sheet feed and you can use it as a B&W printer or for doing wide format text. The higher DJs like the Zs are lacking in sheet tray feed support but otherwise the DJ130 is not worth spending anything on maintaining.

And now it's working, so next I find no magenta ink is being delivered. Hastily, I removed the magenta ink to check it then put it back, and now the panel shows it as empty/blinking (I probably wasn't supposed to do that). And I guess it was the magenta printhead that was causing the problem, so now I probably have to buy a new magenta ink cartridge and a new printhead. As a very occasional (and not very knowledgeable) DJ 130 user, I'm finding I need to buy a new printhead or two every time I fire this printer up nowadays (which isn't often). Most of my ink and printheads are past expiration, and it might cost another $100 or more to attempt to get some prints out of this thing ... Sad that it's so much cheaper for me to just send out for prints. Anyone in L.A. want to make an offer on a low-mileage occasional use DJ 130, which I think just needs the items listed? --- In HPDesignJet_Printers@yahoogroups.com <mailto:HPDesignJet_Printers%40yahoogroups.com> , Roberto Westbrook <rwestbr...@...> wrote: > > The guy who bought my DJ130 said the printheads can get air in them and that > they require recharging with some kind of kit you can purchase.
