HP Inkjet Printer Diagnostic Tests
The internal HP printer self-tests, including ‘Tap 10’ test, can be used to verify cartridge nozzle performance and that the
printer's internal firmware is functioning properly. The Tap 41/43 diagnostic tests can provide valuable cartridge/printhead
health diagnostics information (most models); as this is a forced service test the printer will attempt to print the ‘tap 41/43
diagnostic page whether the ink cartridges are electrically good or not. The tests do not verify computer-printer connectivity.
NOTE 1: “Non-Genuine”/”Counterfeit” ink alert messages can be bypassed, however if “Incompatible Print Cartridge" / “Print
Cartridge(s) Problem” / “Refer to printer documentation” / “Cartridge Error: Cartridge must be replaced” / “Cartridge in left or
right slot is not intended for use in this printer" / “Replace Ink Cartridge” / “Ink Cartridge Failure” is displayed then the
cartridge may be electrically damaged (internal micro-electronics). Remove and clean ink cartridge (or printhead) electrical
contacts. Re-install and re-test printer using the suggested procedures provided below. Videos available at www.inkjet411.com
NOTE 2: If you are able to print the internal Self-Test print but ‘regular’ printing is still not possible, then one (or both) of the ink
cartridges (or PRINTHEAD) may have internal micro-electronic damage and may need to be replaced to restore print functions.
Tap 41 Diagnostic Print Test (i.e. HP 92-99 Ink Cartridges) Check expiration; cartridges are prone to failure after this date
