Following a change of ink cartridges, my printer refuses to print; it's an HP C5180. On the printer's screen, it shows: ink system error, printing impossible. Err. Oxc 18a0307. I have consulted the documentation, but now nothing works. If there is anyone who can advise me on resolving the issue, please help. Thank you in advance.

Note: This operation will erase the memory of your machine (pending jobs, etc.)
- Unplug the power cord from the printer.
- Press and hold the "HELP" and "OK" buttons on your machine simultaneously.
- Now plug the power cord back in while still holding the buttons from the previous step.
- The screen will then display "DRIVE CLEAR" or a similar message may appear. You can then release the buttons.
- You can turn your machine back on and reprogram it.

Hello,
I have the same issue as you. I changed the black cartridge of my "all-in-one" model c5180 and suddenly got system error 0xc18a0001.
This is not the first time I've changed the cartridge without any problem, but this time, nothing works.
Did you solve your problem? If so, how?
Thank you.

Same problem (Err. Oxc18a0307 following a cartridge change).
Is there a solution?
Thank you for your responses.

Hello,
For the ink system problem that does not reset with the reset (button # and 9), disassemble the printer on the side where the micro pump is located (left) and check that the gear wheel has not skipped. This is a recurring problem due to poor maintenance of the wheel. In this case, simply reattach it with super glue.
Best regards

Thank you very much!...
Thank you very much for the tip, photosmart C5180 is working fine with the manipulation.
Have a good evening.
Fortunately, there are people who share this knowledge on the NET.
I was already prepared to throw away this printer.
But this operation successfully got the device running again.
Well done!
