Hello, Primm wrote (shortened):
My hp c3180 suddenly will not auto recognise photo quality paper. I've tried all types. It attempts the recognition but flashes the paper out warning light. Normal paper works fine. ... It rejects HP glossy and Kodak glossy photo paper. I just tried it with Epson photo paper and ironically it works fine.
As far as I know there is a LED (usually with blue light) and a small optical scanning unit in the print head carrier which is used to autodetect the paper type. Perhaps it is smudged so that the autodetection results are wrong?
