HP Deskjet printer buying guide

My printer is printing colors wrong. I tried to print a picture of some family members, and what was supposed to be black was purple, what was supposed to be brown is a blueish color, and there’s a ton of strong reds and greens. The faces look fine, except for a little bit of red, but the rest of the picture is terrible. It almost looks like a negative, except that parts of the picture (faces especially) are fine.
It’s one of those printer/scanner/copier all in one’s (HP Photosmart C4240a, if that matters), and I’ve had it align and clean the print cartridges. That changed the colors a little, but they’re still off, and now there are splotches of ink outside of the picture itself.
I’m planning on using this printer to print photos as christmas presents, so I really need to get it working. I’ve only used it once or twice before this. Any suggestions?

I have a hp psc 2410xi photosmart all-in-one, and it has always worked great, no complaints. But now, for some odd reason, anytime you print something it will print it again later. Sometimes it’s a few minutes later, and sometimes its hours later. Any clue why this is happening? It’s not set to make more than one copy and I only click the print button once.

I have a hp photosmart c4180 all in one and it says that it has a paper jam, it doesnt have one, before this when i tried to print the printer would get a sheet of paper and trow it out and then print on the second sheet of paper and it would stuck the end of the sheet, i have revised the printer many many times and it has nothing, how can i make this message go away and let me print my essays?

So I have recently installed a new printer for my computer. An HP Photosmart C3180 Series All-in-One. I bought new ink for it as well, and when I first changed it, it printed this out: http://i27.tinypic.com/6ivhw4.jpg I didn’t think much of it then, because I thought it was just testing out the new ink. But since then, whenever I turn on my printer, it always prints this out first. I don’t know how to get it to stop. What can I do to make it stop printing this?
If it helps, I’m using Windows XP.
