• DeskJet Pro 8600: Ink black print only via Mac OS x 10.10 Officejet Pro 8600

  My Pro Deskjet 8600 is low on ink Cyan but I am trying to print a document Word in black and white using only the black ink cartridge, which is full. I found the setting on my Mac and you have selected "Black Ink Only", but the printer says that I still need to replace Cyan print. Why should I Cyan to print in black and white? Please tell me that I shouldn't keep all 4 full ink cartridges just to print in black and white? See the screenshots below.

  

  

  Hello

  The ink is required for the printer to use, you need to replace an empty ink cartridge to continue printing.

• Black printer only print not

  I have a C310 printer wireless connected to my laptop HP DV7 64 bit on Windows 7. This printer has been great until today. I tried to print 3 documents in blue, red and black. The red and blue are fine, but the black is not printing. I printed a document of ink, and the text does appear not even if all the colors, including black, print. I removed and replaced the black cartridge and I checked that there is ink available, that there is, and I checked for ink in the ignition and that is. Anyone know what could be the answer and how I started to correct. Thank you.

  For all those who have involved in this post, thanks for trying, but I have now come to the conclusion that the printhead has gone wrong on me, having followed the links and discussions of this forum and the Forum of Microsoft. The end result seems to be that the print head needs to be replaced, but rather than do this for £48 I will probably inveat in a new printer as the 6520 and hope that it lasts longer than the short time - approx. 2 years - that it was successful.

• boring hp deskjet 1050 has black printing only? WiFi? How much ink

  After buying a printer cheap printer hp deskjet 1050a (resembling chewing itself to bits by the way), I had so much headache to install!

  instructions that not many of them just from the pictures! then try to find a product code to go with my serial number on the hp site has been a bloody nightmare! Why hp? Why do you make things so difficult?

  which is wrong with just a serial number?

  in any case, I was looking on the hp site because books I've had with this printer were so small I couldn't read the blighters and theres almost nothing in them anyway. I want to know if the color came out it prints black only?

  also does support the wifi printer? probably not I think that considering its price (you get what you pay for I suppose that Chew plastic noisy)

  also how much ink is in a standard black cartridge and an xl one?

  also how much of each color in the color cartridge?

  and finally, I installed the firmware (did not really want to do, but I couldn't be bothered by separates them) and its got as his own dashboard and a menu including the half I do not understand. I can't find the printer settings and from what ican find there are very few of them or is that how its supposed to be considering it is a cheapy printer?

  I bought what was cheap as a buffer because my epson decided to die on me... until now I'm not really convinced I'll buy another hp (who is half decent when I can afford it and not too expensive) unless someone can convince me otherwise

  Some other links that may help...

• Black printing only using HP 4500

  Please give me the steps to program my printer to print in only greyshade.  I'm wasting too colorful!  Thank you.

  rjp4866,

  I appreciate the update. In order to get all the features of the software of the printer, you must open Internet Explorer on your desktop. You can leave the pages of apps (tiles) and click on the IE icon in the lower left. Once IE is open, you can open your mail from here and can now select the desired page range.

  If you are use to open your mail in the page of the app (tiles), you can follow my previous recommendation, but in order to successfully complete them, you need to open your mail or your browser and in the lower right, there is a key, it is located right next to the bar of your browser, there is a back arrow a point of view and the key. Once you click the key you can then complete the steps in my previous recommendation.

  Please make sure you that you do not train parameters in the charm bar that will give you limited options only for printing.

  I hope this helps!

• HP Vivera Photosmart 3210: EXPIRY of the INK. can buy black ink only and print n & B with the range of printers hp Vivera 3210?

  all ink has expired. can I buy only black ink and print n & b with hp Vivera printer, photosmart 3210 all-in-one

  and black and white printing only with color expired ink in there?

  Hi @peanut7949,

  I believe, with this model, you can continue printing with inks has expired. That being said, if you replace only the black ink and continue to print with others (expired), it should be fine.

  Here's what I could find on the subject:

  Each ink cartridge has an expiration date to protect the printing system and ensure a good quality ink. The cartridge expiration date appears on line 53 of the free test report.

• HP Deskjet 1000 J110: Intense black print with the black ink cartridge only

  Hello

  I am trying to print the darkest possible black, but simply by using the black ink cartridge. How do I get there?

  My printer is HP deskjet 1000 J110 using cartridge HP 301.

  I do my drawing in Adobe Illustrator and set the color to be CMYK 100 100 100 100.

  If I insert only the black cartridge, the printer will leave empty place where color CMY ink should be or it will fill the space with black ink?

  Basically, what I'm trying to do is to increase the density of ink to the highest possible but only using only the black cartridge.

  Thank you.

  Welcome @didididot,

  You can use the mode single-cartridge:

  Use single-cartridge in the HP printer with a single cartridge. Mode single-cartridge begins when an ink cartridge is removed from the distribution of the print cartridge. In the mode single-cartridge, the product can only printing from the computer.

• HP deskjet 3520 scan copy main: print in black ink only

  Thanks robert

  Welcome to the HP community @robert3591,

  I read your post want to print in black ink only, from your Deskjet 3520 and how, you do not select this option, every time you print from your Windows Vista system.

  I would say to change the option to print in black ink only from "Devices and printer" to contain the parameter always print in black. This is a great detailed post from my colleague @X-23 , which shows all the instructions and screenshots:

  Hello

  AirPrint does not support black ink only printing, however the HP ePrint app allows it.

  Note that the option is available only for documents (for example Office, PDF, Web pages and emails files), but not for the Photo files.

  You can find the steps to obtain and use the application in the document below:

• Black and white printing only problem for Mac at HP6480 all-in-one printer

  Does anyone know how to get the printer to print in black and white only?  As others have mentioned, the printer wants to use the cartridge printing black and white color.  When I explore each print option, drop down menu, question mark, it has no option to reset the printer b & w printing only, even if the summary section lists this option in one of windows printing.

  Have you tried cmd - p of any application, paper Type/quality and in grayscale, choose this menu?

• HP OfficeJet 8600: Print using black ink only

  We use our printer as a copier only.  It is not connected to a computer.  Why do the color cartridges run out of ink and we cannot print black print.  We print any documents using color.  Is it possible to turn on the black only?

  Sorry, but the HP Officejet Pro 8600 has separated from the inks and printheads and requires that all inks are available to avoid damage to the print head.

  You can minimize the ink used with the following steps:

  • Use draft mode when the quality is sufficient.  Draft mode uses about half the ink or Normal or best mode.
  • Power switch of the printer only allows to turn off the printer.  If an external switch (as a protector or output impulse) is used more ink will be used at startup.

  HP and other printer manufacturers have technology another printer for different needs.  For ink jet printers:

  • Some have integrated into the ink cartridges print heads.  These printers can print generally with one or more of the colors completely empty, or even with color or black cartridges (but not both) removed. The Officejet 8040 has us an example.
  • Other printers have separate replaceable printheads and inks.  An example would be the printer Officejet 8600.  In these printers print head can be replaced if they are damaged by running the printhead with colors off.  Some of these printers allow printing with a color, the other will not.  If the printer is run without ink in one or several colours, the printer may be damaged, but the user may be able to recover without having to send to the printer for the service.
  • Other printers have permanent print heads.  To run only those without little ink in all colours would risk causing damage to the print head because of clogs, air ingested in the printhead or grilled printhead resistances of shooting. The Officejet 6700 is an example of this type of printer. For printers with fixed print heads that could require the service to get the printer to print properly again when the ink is finally replaced.

  The document described here how the ink is used.  The document is written for inkjet printers HP the same principles apply to printers inkjet from other manufacturers.

  If you do ever print color laser printer would probably be a better choice.  If you occasionally print color but especially black a HPI printer as those in the first category above can be a good choice.
