Marty, I was just researching the same problem on my Epson 740. I went to fixyourownprinter.com and came on these directions for mine: "Clean the shaft that the cartridge holder slides on. Then put some light oil on it, but be careful not to spill any. There is a felt piece that�s soaked with oil inside the holder and sometimes this gets dry and causes these problems." The person used WD40 to lubricate it. I'm planning to do it on my 740, hopefully your HP would benefit from similar treatment. Regards, Joe -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
