• E-all-in-one printer, HP Deskjet 3520: HP Deskjet 3520 printer with black cartridge 364

  I tried to insert a 364 black cartridge in the printer. The 364XL black fits perfectly, but the 364 ordinary cartridge seems to be too narrow to fit.

  Am I stupid? Is there a technique for the Assembly of the 364 cartridge?

  Help please.

  The regular black cartridge must be installed in the center of the space, with an equal distance on each side.

  

  Additionally, make sure that you use the black cartridge 364 (with the symbol of the Pentagon) rather than the Photo-364 (with the butterfly or butterfly knot symbol).  The photos below show the 564 cartridge, but is the same for the 364.

  364 black cartridge has a Pentagon on the cartridge but a circle on the box...  The Photo cartridge has a butterfly on the cartridge and a camera on the box node.

• OfficeJet pro 8600: printing with black cartridge only

  I just replaced the black ink cartridge (the other colors are exhausted and still in the machine) but I want to just print in black, but it won't let me - please advise

  This isn't what you want to hear, but you will need to replace the color cartridges as well.  The 8600 Pro Officejet has separate ink supplies and a replaceable (but expensive) print head.  If the printer works (in black only) with one or more color exhausted it can damage the print head.  To avoid damaging the printer hangs printing if one or several colors are exhausted.

• Printer prints of photo cartridge

  I have a 7520 with lots of ink in the black cartridge.  The photo cartridge is empty because I realize now when you print documents from the printer uses and still wants us ink cartridge photo. Now, when I print something it is empty. I checked the settings on my computer and the printer and cannot figure out how to get the printer to print from black cartridge.

  Hello

  Select "Black ink" only grayscale printer option will use black ink only. If option levels of gray or color to B & W printer, principle needs to use photo ink. Please note: you still need all the ink cartridges when printing black ink only. The Setup program can vary from the printer to the printer but at the bottom (for Windows):

  (a) double-click the desktop printer icon.
  (b) click on set preferences.
  (c) click on advanced.
  d select "Black ink" only for printing in grayscale
  (e) click apply/Ok...

  Kind regards.

• Why my photosmart 7520 uses photo black cartridge for all documents

  I am going through the black cartridges 564 photo every two weeks. How can I get my iMac to start printing with black cartridge great?

  Hi @zam1290 , Welcome to the forums

  I have some links with a bit more in depth for you on using ink below the information. You can see the black photo used as the printer will use all the ink cartridges, even when printing in black. You could try changing your printing parameters for print in black ink only, and who could help!

• Print in black only

  HP Officejet Pro 8500 has more.  How do you print in black only?

  Hi dolphin1,.

  You will need to click the paper/quality tab, and then click the Advanced button to change printing in grayscale in black ink only. Keep in mind that this printer has a replaceable print head and must have all the colors ran through it to keep it in good working condition. If you only run the black only there is a chance that the printhead can get clogged in the color of the jets, which in turn can cause print quality problems.

  HP, as other printer manufacturers, offers you with permanent print heads printers requiring ink for all colors, avoid the print heads.  HP, like some other manufacturers, also offers printers with user replaceable print heads.  These may of may not require ink in all colors in print, even though damage may occur if the print from the cartridge empty.  Finally, HP as some other manufacturers also offers printers with the printhead into the ink supply.  He is replaced at each change of cartridge.  These printers will happily print with a diet low, empty or many deleted completely same models.

• HP 7520 Will not print in black

  I have a printer HP 7520, which is one of the newer models, BUT the warraty expired earlier this year. The printer has stopped printing the black cartridge. I have tried 3 new cartridges. No work. I tried aligning the printer 3 times. No change. Then I replaced the black photo cartridge. No change. All cartridges have been changed, all the colors and the diagnostic print quality displays all colors, Cyan, Magenta, yellow and the cartridge Full photo, but black is white, showing no ink, but I know it's a new cartridge inside (did I mention I have tried 3 different NEW HP cartridges?) So I tried to clean the cartridges. Nope! That did not help. I looked in this forum and I saw thet maybe I should change my impression attributing to "use the black cartridge only. Done that, still doesn't work. So here I'm lost 3 new black cartridges and cannot print. Level of frustration? 24 on 10. So to sum up, I tried everything on the forum, but still have a printer does not work. (I have not tried waiting for a few hours so that the printer heal road as it was only 1 hour when I began my journey). Just completely frustrated at this point...

  Well, looks like I solved my problem with lighting one of the other users. Since this printer depends very much for the software to function properly (even for print from its internal cartridges) I tried to reinstall the software from the HP support web site. And viola! Levels were correct and she distributed printing with the black cartridge. (Don't forget I have been using this printer for about a year without any problems and all of a sudden he decided not print black). If an option before you try soaking or replace your printhead or pull the hair on your head is to re - install the software and you too can be a happy camper!

• HP 6600: why can I not print with only black when I have only black cartridge in hp 6600 as hp 4500'?

  and he always says that color cartridges are leaking so I had to make one more only accepts black and I can not print with only black.

  How can I print with only black when I have the only black in the printer.

  Why only black does not work with the color cartridges.

  What is the error message you see with the color cartridges installed?

  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. 5665 envy is an example.
  • Other printers have separate replaceable printheads and inks.  An example would be the printer Officejet Pro 8610.  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 6600 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.

• Printers HP 7525: printer 7525 HP black cartridge for first location

  I can't find a 'black' for the side cartridge far left slot (not the picture) to my printer without having to buy color cartridges too which I don't need.  HP 564 packaging said it fits the 7525 but it DOES NOT fit in the first place... it's TOO BIG. I bought one for $15, so I know not it does not fit and I've fulfilled my original with refill from Costco for $ 7 and that does not work either!   It shows that the cartridge is empty and he is not.  It's $40 to buy all color cartridges, which includes the small fitting cartridge.  All solutions other than the pit printer and buy a new one and not a HP one?  Someone managed to find the smallest 564 black cartridge that fits the HP 7525?

  The cartridge on the left side, the same size as the cartrdiges color, is the Photo, not the black cartridge cartridge.  You can buy it in the store or HP or others online.   The black cartridge is physically larger than the color or Photo cartridges.

  564 black cartridge has a Pentagon on the cartridge but a circle on the box...  The Photo cartridge has a butterfly on the cartridge and a camera on the box node.

  document here can help.   It is available in standard or Size XL.

  BTW, if a cartridge is filled he will continue to show as empty, unless the chip on the cartrdige is replaced or reprogrammed.  I suggest to take back to Costco for a refund, they did half the work.

  Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

  It's just one of those things - you must have all five cartridges to print with that printer.

  Experience:

  The Photo black is not just for the pictures - this type of black is "jet black" and is used for special types of printing needs "black-black" including pictures, graphics and photos.

  Black regular print gray-black, gray, mixtures with other colors and prints some blackish fonts.

  You bought into this concept when you purchased this printer - maybe - not deliberately, but so much.  Additional 'Photo Black' is one of the reasons for this printer is capable of reproducing really excellent color photographic Images.

  ======================================================================

  The facts about Photo Black

  The following is provided by our own Provost Expert Bob_Headrick .

  The document explains how to use the ordinary black and photo black ink cartridges used in the 7520 Photosmart and printers Photosmart 7525.

  Partial extract:

  The smallest cartridge is the photo cartridge, used for printing of dark areas when the photo paper is selected in the driver, or 'automatic' paper selection is enabled, the media type is detected as photo paper.  It can also be used in some cases when you print graphics on plain paper.  If you are printing on plain paper make sure "plain paper" is selected in the selection of the type of media for the driver.

  Photosmart 7525 may require ink in all colors (including photos and black) to avoid any clogging of printheads.  See here for more information on how the ink is used.  PhotoSmart 7525 is an IIC printer in the terminology of this document.

• OfficeJet 4635 or want 5661: printing in black and white, scale to gray, but WITHOUT color cartridge, or dead-dried-up color

  I almost always (more than 100% of the time) print out text B & W, duplex, 2-up.  my old HP PSC 1315 works very well with a drying cartridge, using only black ink color.  but it's send me paper transport problems, carrying across multiple pages and ruin my impression sequence.

  I am considering the 4635 Officejet or all in one Envy 5661.   two of them prints my way, WITHOUT requiring that I have a liquid color cartridge loaded (much less actually need that I use color ink)?

  Thank you

  6551 envy may print as a "single-cartridge" mode with the color (or black) cartridge, completely washed out as described on page 52 of the manual here:

  Use single-cartridge

  Use single-cartridge use the HP ENVY 5660 series with only one cartridge. Mode single-cartridge begins when an ink cartridge is removed from the distribution of ink cartridges. Mode single-cartridge, the printer can copy documents, copy pictures and printing from the computer.

  NOTE: When the HP ENVY 5660 series operating in mode single-cartridge, a message appears on the printer screen. If the message appears and two ink cartridges are installed in the printer, make sure that the piece of plastic tape protection was removed from each ink cartridge. When the Ribbon plastic covers the ink cartridge contacts, the printer cannot detect the cartridge is installed.

  The Officejet 4635 lists similar features on page 77 here user guide.  The Officejet 4635 does not explicitly say that it will copy with only one cartridge, it would be something to check if you choose this model. [In fact, may be a good thing to check with each model - the user guides are sometimes wrong...]
