    Have you tried reseating or replacing the cartridges? How old is the unit?

    Ok, the 7580 has a replaceable print head. I would order a new one from HP and replace it.

    Hello SCott and thanks for your information. I will order a new print head. FYI, We had a paper jam recently and my wife inadvertenly pulled the jam out of the front of the computer instead of the normal root of taken the back cover of and removing the jam. Do you think pulling the paper from the front may have damaged the print head?
