Designjet 5500 does not print a color (Magenta), head scratcher

Hello all and thanks in advance. I'll try to be brief with my problem. I was wondering if anyone of you advanced users have experienced this problem and if I am wrong in my assumptions: granted Designjet 5500, work status unknown, for my personal use (mainly CAD). Replace the belt, system of tube of ink, cartridges and printheads (belt was shot, the ink tube sank cyan) system started successfully with print heads of installation showing all 6 colors of ink. Ran diagnostic impression. Magenta is totally absent in prints of Diagnostics 1 and 5. Not even a trace of color. I tried the calibration and fails with the error 6009, understandable. tubes of ink to the transport still show all 6 colors. printer initializes generally very good, with all the list OK print heads (because they are all new!). But sometimes throws an error 0032 00000004 0c fall detector, but not always. Fall sensor cleaned. My thought is that the Magenta Printhead is about shooting. Given that all the tubes of ink and no ink bubble comes OK. The fact that she sometimes error 0c 0032, but sometimes not, said that the printhead magenta must be fired sometimes at startup. So, I intend to replace the rear cart cables as the next logical step. Notice please! Thank you! Ray

The first you see, it's actually the flowing magenta printhead ink. Take a damp paper towel, then press the printhead magenta in the towel and you should get two lines of ink. If you need a comparison, take the black and do the same thing. If you don't get two complete lines, then you can try to soak the print head in warm water (the temp) for about 2 minutes and pat dry with paper towels. Most of the time you can tell right away because when you place a print head in hot water should flow little ink and water take on the colour of the print head. Also make sure that it is not the magenta head light print and magenta. My feeling is that if you have a problem of thin cable you get an error message since the main Board check electrical connections to the print head during initialization, and when printing. Since you are not getting a failure than this message means electrically the printhead and the connections that are very well and this is the part of print head that is clogged or not working do not.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600: Printer does not print in color

    I just got the color cartridges refilled at Costco. Now, my printer does not print in color.  I printed out a diagnosis and cartridges are showing that they are full.  The actual color of magenta is a deep rose, so I know that some of the magenta is crossing. Cyan (blue) and yellow printed black on diagnostic tests.  I know that Costco filled cartridges with the appropriate color because I can see the color on/in the cartridge.  Suggestions on what to try? I bought the printer on January 27, 2013.

  • DesignJet T770: DesignJet T770 will not print in color

    After you move a DesignJet T770 44 inch queue from a Windows 2003 server to a Server Windows 2012 R2 the T770 will not print in color.

    The general tab on the properties T770 printer States ' color: No. '.  Yet once on the printer properties on the tab color color management is set to "Automatic (recommended)".

    The T770 printer driver has been downloaded from Windows Update I was unable to get a T770 driver from the HP website.

    The T770 product no is CH539A / CN375A. Strangely, none of these product numbers have been recognized by the search for product number for th HP Web site.

    My question is how do the T770 to print color again?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    I would say that you definitely have a driver problem if you has not changed the settings in the built-in web server printer at the time wherever you spent since Windows Server to the other server in Windows.

    I check all the settings on each tab in the driver to see if it is possible that somewhere in there color is disabled.

    I also go back to HP.com and look for driver for that machine again.

    I am also looking for a print utility for this machine, which should not be confused with a printer utility, even if they might be named roughly the same.

    I recall there are two utilities is to monitor the status of your printer, and the other is to print and work around the driver.

    When you have found the right print utility you save your print format JPEG or PDF file and then open it in the print utility and send it to the printer without ever open drivers.

    Another experiment, you can try it if you have a practical PDF just open a web browser and access the built-in web server printer and then try to print the PDF file directly by using the option for printing on the web server.

    The purpose of some of these things is number one determine if the printer has developed a problem that it prevents printing color and print JPEG or PDF from the built-in Web server where all you do is send the file directly to the printer would let you know that the printer is always able to color.

    So if you can get the print work utility where you can open the PDF on a PC and then send it to the printer you have to least a workaround while you solve the driver problem.

    Hello

    I've been struggling with this for months...

    Of course, this printer color cartridges run out after 50 pages or so... terrible... but at least the BW prints nearly 500 pages... not bad...

    Anyway,.

    Whenever the COLOR cartridge is low, it FARM DOWNS ANY impression, especially BW... I can't print on BW, when well even the cartridge BW is full... WHY?

    I chose the option to "continue" to print on device settings when the color cartridges are weakening... and yet, it still does not print...

    IS THERE A WAY TO BYPASS THE CARTRIDGES COLOR AND PRINTING BLACK AND WHITE ONLY? I can NOT BELIEVE HP MADE some THING so SIMPLE SO COMPLICATED... they are supposed to be leaders in printing technology and yet they cannot even conceive something that should be so simple...

    Help, please!

    I corrected thanks... something in the control panel of configuration/printers... Administrator has been selected then 'it' could only print... Vista, Multiswitch is generally a FKN JOKE... It's my last Windows computer... Bloggy one MAC
