  Moreover, if I print a test page for the printer, I see racks, which are printed in black!

  At the same time, the black level is not printed!

  Please, help to repair!

  Hi @MobileWanted,

  The printer is probably using composite black. A mixture of the color cartridges will create black.

  The print head is probably clogged. This model has a permanent print head. Not one of HPs, my personal recommendation is to use the solution put forward in the next video.  I suggest you only do this if the printer is out of warranty: How to fix a HP printer, printing black ink not.

  If the printer is still under warranty, please call for a replacement printer.

  Thank you!

• DeskJet 2541: brand new HP Deskjet 2541 not printing black

  Just set up our new Deskjet 2541. Impressions color very well, but when I try to print black it prints a blank page.

  Ink estimate shows that the black cartridge is about 75% full. I ran the alignment and vacuuming twice.

  I also tried to do a hard reboot by unplugging for 30 seconds and then plug it in.

  As much as I know there is no problem with black cartridge, its all just not printing.

  Help?

  Edit: I took out and put new and when the alignment page is printed there are 2 red arrows and a warning sign on the bottom half red. Upper half a blue colors only.

  It's working now. No idea of what he did, I turned it off for a whole day and when I restarted the properly printed alignment page and black now works!

• HP Deskjet all-in-one: HP Deskjet 3520 will not print black, period

  OK, I've lost my WHOLE day, searched forums, has done what others have tried, poste posted HP Facebook, doing whatever is humanly possible to get my printer to print in black. I ran the clean printhead, black ink changed TWICE new cartridges, reloaded drivers, reset the default open to the top of the printer and tried to manually clean the head after only 4 hours to do everything I can possibly do to get this junk to print in black. The printer is only a year old and the cartridges are freshly bought from the store. So, tell me what am I missing or is the printer ready to be stoned?

• HP 3520 while a printer does not print black after changing ink and cleaning head

  My 3520 printer all-in-one will not print black after cleaning print head and replacement of black ink. the printer is a little older than a year. All printing inks.

  Hi handytim1,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I see that you are facing some print quality problems on your HP Deskjet 3520, you cleaned the printhead and replace the cartridge without success.

  I would like to continue you 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.

  Let me know the results, I'll watch for your reply.

• DeskJet 2544: Do not print black

  I've been using this printer for over a year now and suddenly the black does not print, print all colors fine, but started black printing of a very light gray, then everything just stopped printing. I did all the tricks and tips (alignment, cleaning 4 times I may add etc) but still have this problem. I bought new ink, even if the old one still shows half full, and it still doesn't work! any ideas people? I don't really have the money to buy a new printer and have a full and half full black ink cartridge. help, advice or tips I could try before bouncing back from this printer on the wall and connect with standards, business would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.

• DeskJet F4480: full black print cartridge still does not print black. Colors OK.

  What the title says. All of a sudden my Deskjet F4480 does not print black. All cartridges are almost nine (changed recently, bought at Staples). Colour printing is OK. Print a page with black text and results in only the images printing color images. I only went through all the steps of cleaning cartridge several times, no difference. There is no error message, just black not appear do not at all.

  And... Here is the solution.

  Funny how I found an explanation of the problem and how to fix it on a different printer manufacturer's Web site, but not on HP... But I digress.

  The black cartridge has been blocked. The way of difficulty is:

  1. remove the faulty cartridge from the printer.

  2. place a small amount of boiling water in a cup (about 1/4 in.) and dunk of the print head (the part where the ink comes out) in warm water for a minute. Do not immerse the entire cartridge in hot water, just the print head.

  3 take it out, pat against a paper towel, observe the model ink left in the cartridge on the towel. If too little / interrupted, dunk again in hot water for another minute, pat again. You want to get an unbroken line of ink through the length of the print head. Repeat as needed (I did 4 times total).

  4 cartridge Pat dry everywhere, put it back in the printer, run cleaning cycles (1 - 2).

  5. If still not good fixed, take out the cartridge and repeat 2 (I had to do it again).

  You will lose little ink, cartridge of bad and good a well (you can not run cycles with only 1 cleaning cartridge), but at least you won't have to throw a nearly full cartridge.

• HP Photosmart Premium C309g do not print black ink

  Hello

  My HP Photosmart Premium C309g (CD055A) will not print black ink even if the cartridge is full. He's going through the motions of printing but the pages come out blank. It prints colors, they are not as dark as before, so I know that black is not working. I have cleaned the print heads, turned off the printer, unplug the printer, restarted the computer, but nothing works. I get colors on the report of the print quality, but the printer status report comes out blank. I bought a new black ink cartridge (564XL) think the previous one was defective (levels showed a 75% ink) but I still have the same problem. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you.

  Hey,.

  I see you have done some troubleshooting on the issue of the print quality that you are experiencing.  I would make sure you did all the troubleshooting steps available for your research problem in the document following the link.

  Print colors are the colors should not when the C309 Photosmart Premium printing.

  If you have completed all these steps, then I check the status of your printer warranty.  If it is out of warranty, you should consider the solution provided by Bob_Headrick in the thread found here.

  Hope this helps,

  Jason

• HP 5510 will be not printed black before and after you installed the new cartridge. the specified controls did.

  Photosmart HP 5510 will be not printed black before and after you installed the new cartridge.  The specified controls did.

  Yes, I was referring to manually clean the print head. I see that the 5510 lacks the possibility of leaving the print head manually.
  
  You can click on the menu of your SETUP program on your screen and go to TOOLS and clean the print head from there.
  
  If this does not resolve your problem, you may need to replace the print head.
  Contact HP Total Care (1800-474-6836), and if your unit is under warranty, its free.
  
  Let me know if this can help, thank you.
