About HP OfficeJet 4500
 The HP Officejet 4500 printer works great when it comes to 
homes, offices, or small businesses. It prints, copies, and scans 
the documents with much ease.
 Just like any other electronic device, the HP Officejet 4500's will 
stop functioning if there will be any problem with its hardware or 
software. Before troubleshooting or trying to resolve the issue, 
you should first figure out where the problem lies. 
 The printer’s functioning can be affected by various reasons, like 
the problem with the printer software on the computer, or maybe 
the computer itself or even because of the USB cable which 
connects the printer to the computer.
HP OfficeJet Not Printing(Fixed)
 Starting from the very basic step, first of all, check both the ends of the 
power cord and the printer's USB cable and make sure that they are plugged 
in securely. Directly plug the power cord into a power outlet instead of a 
backup battery or surge protector. Also, plug the USB cable into the 
computer, not on some other device or USB hub.
 Now, check the printer’s power light, if it is illuminated solidly or is blinking. 
In case, you have installed a new print cartridge around 10-12 minutes 
before, wait for the light to stop blinking as the printer might be taking time 
to initialize the new cartridge.
 Another thing which you try out to deal with HP Officejet 4500 not printing 
issues is to unplug the power cord, open the printer's covers and then 
remove the paper from the input and output trays if the power light keeps on 
blinking.
 Just to make sure that the Officejet 4500 is set as a default printer, use the 
software application you used to make the print request. Now, click the "File" 
menu, then click "Print" and check whether the Officejet 4500 is selected in 
the pull-down menu at the top of the print window. 
 Now, right-click the printer icon on the right side of the taskbar, see if a check 
mark appears next to "Pause Printing. If the check mark appears, click "Pause 
Printing" resuming the pending print work. Also, make sure that you close any 
other application open on the printer to get rid of potential conflicts.

Here is the list of things that you can do when your HP Officejet 
4500 is not printing black:

installed. Replace it if it is empty or low on ink.

recognize different cartridges.
 Check print-heads and make sure they are not clogged if the 
switching of the cartridges does not work.
