5520 art photos: 5520 black ink questions

I would like to know if it there did nothing for known issues with the 5520. I just got back from Best Buy with a new printer HP 5660 model but I will not even open it if it is a known issue for HP. I also have the fi 5520 and I tried all the "stuff" to fix. But still no black. And I bought too just all new inks...

The message here has information on addressing black does not print on the Photosmart 5520, with a suggestion to call HP if the troubleshooting steps do not resolve the problem.  I think that HP is tackling the problem.

    I have the same problemwith Photosmart 5520, black ink, it's not working

    A few hours ago, I bought a new cartridge. Because the return, we were out of ink and... I changed (for the second time since I bought the printer) and after that... the printer does not print black ink more.  I bought the printer at ElGiganten, Copenhagen, Denmark. I wasn't expecting to find unwanted product on the market, the Danmark. I wasn't expecting HP to deceive people so much. I checked here on the site if the printer, it's still in warranty... not even an answer. So I spend almost 5 hours to check all the * solutions * I try, the printer still give me blank pages.

    The ink on the new cartridge is now... 45% or something. How his as possible! If the pages came out completely of white100 euro, in the trash, past time for anything on this site/forum... I do not understand how you are allowed to sell bad products on the market.

    For HP, you have deceived many people including me, I hope you will take away from the market, at least to the Danmark.

  • HP Photosmart 5520 - will not print black ink

    Photosmart HP 5520 - black ink does not print even with the new cartiage and I did the printhead, cleaning tools and still does not work.    My warranty expires and don't know what to do next.

    Hello heartieluvcatsand welcome to the Forums of HP.

    I understand that you have problems with your black print the result.  I recommend you to perform a power reset. Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

    After the reset, I would say using this document on fixing of the streaks of ink faded prints and other common Print quality problems

    I also suggest the steps described in this document printer does not print black ink or color ink or prints blank Pages.

    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Black ink problem 5520

    Smart photo 5520 has not been used for about 3 months and now black ink will not print. Any suggestions please.

    Hi people,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I see that you are facing some print quality problems on your HP Photosmart 5520, you cannot print in black ink.

    I would like that you start here: printer does not print black ink or color of ink or prints blank Pages, I understand, you may have made some of these steps already but I need you to complete all the steps in order to solve the problem of the missing black, you encounter.

    Please note: there are three stages of print head cleaning. Three steps if necessary. If the print head is badly clogged, it may require another round of cleaning. If so, wait 30 minutes after the last step of cleaning (third) to start the first stage of the cleanup process.

    If you are unable to print in black ink, I think that the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge. I highly recommend call you our technical support at the 800-474-6836, I'm sure they will be able to help you regardless of the status of the guarantee.

    I have successfully install a new black ink cartridge 564 in the photosmart printer 5520. It will print no black ink. However when I print a report of diagnostic quality printing black ink will print the words and rectangle boxes.  On the report there are 4 boxes, one for each color boxes, cyan, magenta and yellow are filled in with each respective color, howerer the black box is empty or the color of the white paper. My estimated black ink gauge says it is almost full. Can some help me?

     I have down loaded new updates and now my ink as been solved problem.

  • HP Photosmart 5520 does not print in black ink.

    Black doesn't print not... except on the print quality diagnostics page where the text and black frames around boxes all print in black.  Inside of the 'Black' box is empty, however.  When I try to print a page of type, it is either totally empty or very indistinct.  How is that possible?

    I saw three other posters with this same problem, everything from 21/01/14 and no answers to the problem.  All the patches of troubleshooting on the Web page do no good.

    My warranty has expired also.  Is this a systemic problem?  How do we get fixed?

    Hi RAJP-52,.

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!

    I understand that the black is not printing on the computer but prints partially on the diagnostics page.

    I'll be happy to help you.

    I don't know what you have tried so far the fix, but I included a few documents to go through the steps to see if we can solve this problem.

    This printer has a permanent print head. You can always run however of cleanups on the print head.

    This document is intended printer does not print black ink or color ink or prints blank Pages.

    Here is a document to clean the contacts of the cartridge.

    'Cartridge problem,' 'Cartridge missing or damaged', or 'Not compatible ink cartridges' Message is displayed on the control panel.

    Please let me know the results if you are still having problems.

    You use genuine HP cartridges?
    Check the date on the cartridge to make sure that they are still in warranty. (not old stock)
    What are the ink levels?

    If you like you can print a new diagnostic test page, scan it and include it in the post, I can take a look to try to find a way to solve this problem.

  • Photosmart B209 more - black ink issue Photo

    Hi I just brought the Photosmart Plus and notice that there are 2 types of black for this printer and one slot on the black ink print head.  I always use the black Starter supplied with the printer.  So my question is if I want to print a photo, just the regular black out with photography black and switch it back when finished to print the photo? or I should finish the black Starter first then switch to photo black. TIA!

    This page can help identify the correct cartridges.  The photo and regualr black cartridges are not interchangeable.

  • HP Photosmart 7510 won't use photo black ink

    I have a photosmart 7510 printer and I am printing from microsoft word 2010 on a windows 8. I print a word with no pictures in document. Printer preferences are on plain paper with normal quality. I can't the printer to use the XL Black ink cartridge. It only uses photo black ink. Is there a setting that I can choose to let him use the regular black ink?

    Hi shirsar,

    I understand that you have a Photosmart 7510 which seems to use a lot more than regular black ink black photo. I'm sorry to hear that, but think I can help you with a solution.

    You can set the printer to use only black ink when printing from the PC and ensures that it uses black ink and no ink picture. My instructions will be set up in the pilot if he does for all programs (if you just want to program it please let me know, and I advise you more). You'll want to start by going to your start screen, and simply start typing devices and printers, and you want to open that (if that is not in the work Panel type and then proceed to open devices and printers). Once the devices and printers is open, right-click on your Photosmart 7510 icon and select Printing Preferences. You'll want to then click on the Advanced Options button at the bottom right of the screen. The next page that appears will allow you to set the printer to use black ink only when printing from the PC (please follow the screenshot below for any clarification).

    Hope this helps, have a nice day!

  • 7525 photosmart all-in-One: black ink Photo being used, but no photo printing

    Photo black cartridges use continuously ink, requiring replacement, and yet I rarely printed photos.  Why?

    Hello

    In fact the printer using other color inks and blend them together to print B & W too. All you need to do is tell the printer to use black ink only.

    Click on the dektop printer > click Preferences > settings click on advanced

    Under grayscale options, select black ink only.

    Click OK/apply

    Kind regards.

  • Question-will scan not Scan not when the black ink is empty.

    1. get a black ink

    2. get a new scanner

    3. identify the make and model of your all-in-one device and perhaps--but not likely - someone ' one will know a work-around.  Some printers behave this way.  Complain to the manufacturer of the printer.

  • photo black ink being exhausted when I'm not printing photos?

    Why the picture of black ink serves upward when I'm not printing photos? I usually only print text... is there a setting I'm missing?

    Hello

    First inks printer needs just to warm up so even print anything the printer still consumes inks. In your case, you must set the printer to print in black only, not in grayscale. Not all printers allow it, what is your printer?

    Kind regards.

  • stop of using photo black ink to print black text and where is past the color ink?

    My HP Photosmart Prem C310 series all-in-one is using the Photo black ink cartridge for printing of text instead of the Black XL that I put in for the printing of the text. How can I use the right to print cartridge? In addition, even if I haven't printed ANY photo and a few pages of text from the new series of color cartridges that I put in, a few months ago are almost empty. Why? How could they be almost empty when I haven't printed anything in color? This is getting ridiculous replacement cartridges every few months WHEN I WAS NOT PRINT anything!

    The ink cartridges game accompanying lasted several months. Since then, I've been through two sets in less than a year. It is 3 sets of ink cartridges when I printed only 3 photo when I first put in place. And have only used the than a 1/4 of a pack of paper to print. I put only two times more paper in it. Whenever it was an inch to 1/4 or 3/8 of a stack of thick inch of paper in the tray. I even tried to close the low printer so its not used for a long period of time, but the ink is still disappear. Where's he going? Why is it okay? How can I stop it? This is ridiculous. I may as well junk the thing even if it still works, because I can not aford to keep feeding ink when its just sitting there doing nothing most of the time.

    Thank you

    The c310a will use the photo black for printing in black if photographic Support is selected in the paper type, or if the setting is automatic and media are detected as photographic support.

    This printer has to separate supplies for printing and ink heads and little ink is required in all the colors to avoid the print head clogged.  The page here discusses how ink is used.
