  • Black Print skip lines at random

    When I print a document, a few lines in the whole of the page (at random), the top characters are not inking.  Another words, I demi-caracteres (only the bottom half) across the entire line.  I have on OfficeJet Pro L7580 and I replace the cartridge with a 88 HP.  I also cleaned the printheads several times and also to align the printheads several times.  Sometimes, I received a message "Unable to align" when I run this task.  All other colors are working properly.  It's only the black print on the page. Please notify.  I do not often use this printer, but I need to work properly.  Thank you!

    All the previous suggestions don't have for my Deskjet 1050 j410 printer. What does not work, for some stupid reason, is unplug the printer, then hold down the Cancel button and the color button while plugging the printer into (This restores the default printer). With each restoration test page jumped lines less until the 6th or 7th reset when it was finally clear.

    A strange but effective solution however. I hope this helps.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 black printing/copying has vertical lines on the page. The color is fine.

    HP Officejet Pro 8600.  at 2 weeks.

    Windows XP

    Color copies/prints are very good.  Black prints/copies have vertical lines widths, ranging from top to bottom.  This occurs when it is copied to form glass or through the feeder.

    Suggestions?

    If the unit is producing lines in copies, so I suggest checking a few things. Make sure that the printer is plugged into a wall outlet directly and not in a surge protector. Additionally, make sure that the glass of the scanner (including the small strip on the left) are clean.

    Also, see the steps in the document troubleshooting located here.

  • Not totally black print on P1102W

    I need to print black images on transparent sheets to use with uv lighting a box to make printed circuit boards.

    This photo is an example where the lower part of the image is not completely black. It does not matter in what place I print this image. High, Center, down, left, or right. The result for this image still has this bottom where there are greyish pieces.

    When I rotate the image 180 degrees is also this same effect, but the other party now has this problem. My current solution is to print 2 copies on the same sheet transparant where an image is 180 degrees of rotation. Then arrange them on top of the other.

    I used the utility of cleaning integrated P1102W several times on the leaves of transparant and normal paper.

    What can I do else?

    Thank you

    Hi @gussmith ,

    I see that you are having problems with the black print is not properly on the page of full transparency. I want to help you solve this problem.

    You have the same problem when printing on regular paper?

    Trying to figure out if it's the toner or the fuser unit causing this problem.

    Remove the toner and gently swing the toner back five times to redistribute the toner.

    Make sure the paper type is selected in the printer driver.

    I have a document with a few steps to try to see if this will solve the problem.

    Troubleshooting print quality problems.

    You use Genuine HP Toner?

    What is the level of toner?

    What operating system do you use? Mac OS X: how to find which Mac OS X Version is on my computer?

    Do you have which driver installed? (Apple, HP website updates)

    Please provide detailed results if you're still having problems.

    Have a great day!
    Thank you.

  • HP DeskJet 3545: HP Deskjet3545 is no longer black print

    Until today, the printer worked perfectly. I was between photocopy several documents in color and all of a sudden, that only the colored parts were getting printed. I checked the cartridge levels and him were weak but not anymore. As it was the first change of refills, I decided to replace the black print cartridge and check. He did not always print black, and now it also stopped with color so I changed the color cartridge, ran diagnostics and tried again. No change. The color prints sometimes and doesn't work after a few tries. Help, please.

    Welcome to the @nks2nagforums.

    I understand your 3545 Deskjet is therefore more print ink color and black, and I wanted to answer you with my suggestions.

    I recommend to try all the steps in this guide, to see if you can overcome the issue: printer prints blank Page or does not print black or color ink for HP ENVY 4500 and Deskjet Ink Advantage 3540 e-all-in-one printer series

  • HP 4650: HP 4650 black print cartridge (63 HP) will not be printed

    In February 2016, I bought a new HP 4650 printer for a seasonal vacation home and it worked perfectly during the 3 months we were there. We returned home in July 2016 of holiday and the 63 HP black cartridge would not work and a new one has been purchased and installed. We have used the printer in just 2 weeks and not very well. Now in October 2016, we go home and again once the printer will not print black cartridge HP 63 is shown as almost empty of ink, which, after only 2 weeks of light, use in July.

    Why don't the 63 HP black print now even if it shows is not empty no ink? And why the cartridge last a very short time, two weeks of very clear use in this case?

    What is happening is that the ink print heads are drying up a lack of use.

  • Photosmart HP 6510: Black print failed

    I have a HP Photosmart 6510, which will not print black - pages of text, sound as if they are printing, but the page comes out blank. Watch as the color test page, but not black.  There is no error message.  Black print cartridge is full and I have applied all recommended maintenance procedures.  I'm going to disassemble the printer (which is out of warranty) and the print head to check the visible obstructions before deciding to give up completely and use my backup of Canon.  Can anyone suggest any other remedies or advice on removal of the print head?  Thank you.

    Thanks for your suggestions.  I removed and cleaned the print head, but the problem remains unresolved.  I did more research and decided to go deeper into the printer to access tubes empty below the print head.  I couldn't find all the instructions more complex procedure on the HP site or elsewhere online, so most of the work was intuitive.  I managed to remove the 'well' below the print head complete with 4 vacuum tubes, and it was immediately obvious to me that the black ink tube was clogged.  I went to clean the whole by immersing in hot water and using a syringe to flush out the tubes.  I cleaned too much ink frozen since sponges of drain that receives the excess ink from the vacuum system (no doubt mostly print head last cleaning operations).  After drying of the parts and reassembling the printer, everything is back to the fully functional State.

    I was amazed at the amount of vitriol expressed by users of the forum to HP for what seems to have been a recurring problem with these printers.  It seems incredibly useless to throw a sound mechanical printer because of a dried ink problem, but that's what many did the cost of 2-3 hours time technician to fix the problem simply cannot be justified. It is unfortunate that HP provides no instructions for technical people like me who are willing to undertake their own maintenance out of warranty HP products.

  • 8500 - alignment failed and black print proberly dosnt

    Hello

    I have a problem with my 8500 has.

    When I run the alignment, then it has sometimes failed. The black printing ink dosnt too proberly. I tried to run clean print head and tried to run the alignment many times.

    If I don't use the printer for a while, so I can print 1-2 pages in black once again, and then the black ink stop working again.

    I checked the cables of the ink and tried other solutions to the support page, but nothing seems to work.

    Would it work if I replace the print head, or know someone at - it a fix for this?

    Best regards, Anders

    Hi @AndersGK and welcome to the Forums of HP!

    I see that you have print head problems.  I would try to help!

    It seems you have a lot of troubleshooting already covered.  It is possible, that you can start to encounter a failure of the print head.

    I recommend to remove the ink cartridges and performing a power reset the printer.  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.

    I would also recommend using the steps described in this document on the problems of quality Print for the HP Officejet Pro 8500 has e-all-in-one printer series.

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

  • All-in-one Photosmart HP 3310: black printing in odd rows

    Hello

    I have had this printer for almost 6 years and never had a problem with it until this last week. My impression started out as below:

    As you can see, the colors are fine, but black seems to be coming out in lines. As the black cartridge was almost empty, I replaced it and received the same impression. I replaced that one (just in case the cartridge was defective) and received the same impression.

    My printer is out of warranty; I tried to clean the print heads and align the printer several times over the last week and nothing has changed. In fact, every print I do has the same meaning (even thickness, same color, same type [dotted, lined, etc.], in the exact same places every time, which is interesting.

    I tried the reset of the printer (pulling on the power cord for 15 to 30 seconds, and then reconnecting), alignment and clean the print heads in the printer menu, and then on the menu in my Mac, and I tried to get the number online (here and here), but came to nothing.

    I'm currently located in the United States, in Arizona. I understand that it is an older printer, so I may end up having to replace, but I was hoping someone might have a suggestion.

    Thank you

    Hey @TheLastDuchess,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that you are having problems of black print quality when printing HP Photosmart 3310 all-in-one printer. I first want to thank you for all the details you provide me in your message. I see you've already replaced the black cartridge twice, cleaned and aligned the print head several times and reset the printer nothing helps. Unfortunately at this time, it sounds like you have a defective system of the print head. The printhead in the unit model is not replaceable part. It reads the cartridges and ink to go on the control document. If this part in case of failure to replace the entire unit would be necessary. According to all the steps that you have already tried, at the moment, you have exhausted the troubleshooting steps. I don't want you to run one more cleans away from your printhead system because it uses no ink in order to rinse the ink for cleaning system. The rule is generally, if cleans 2-3 make no difference, not to go forward with more clean as you will just waste ink.

    At that time, I suggest that you contact our Technical Support by phone team to explore additional options.

    For Arizona, HP Technical Support can be reached at the: 1800-474-6836

    Good luck and happy holidays!

  • HP 4625:4625 doent black printing

    After two weeks vacation may not print in black. Other colors are ok. I have replaced the black cartridge twice, got the conformation of the printer, but no sign black. I run clean several times. No black. My printer is a year old. I think I have no warranty (how to check this)? Any suggestion?

    I bought a new black ink of the different store install and got a beautiful black print.

    Thanks Rick for you advice. So, I guess the two new cartridges, I used were bad (ink or rigged dry). I think it is interesting to understand why my printer does not print black.

    Having a D5560 printer which stopped printing with the black cartridge.

    After thinking the Black just stopped - no phasing-out quality, etc..
