• Want 5530: Printer does not print in black ink

  I recently updated my HP 8.1 Windows of Windows 10 laptop.  I have the same type of printer (Envy 5530) installed at my other House and updated my desktop computer for Windows 10 and had no problem with printing, but now I'm with the laptop.  I try to print documents now and the printer does not print anything using black ink.  Color ink prints, black ink just not. The two jets of ink are filled.  I did all the "try these patches" suggested Windows and HP Print doctor.  I uninstalled and reinstalled the printer twice.  I rebooted the computer several times.  I'm no tech person by any means and have no one to help me or ask what else to do. Can someone help me understand this please?  Thank you!

• HP Photosmart 5520 does not print in black ink.

  Black doesn't print not... except on the print quality diagnostics page where the text and black frames around boxes all print in black.  Inside of the 'Black' box is empty, however.  When I try to print a page of type, it is either totally empty or very indistinct.  How is that possible?

  I saw three other posters with this same problem, everything from 21/01/14 and no answers to the problem.  All the patches of troubleshooting on the Web page do no good.

  My warranty has expired also.  Is this a systemic problem?  How do we get fixed?

• Photosmart 6510 does not print in black

  My photosmart 6510 does not print in black. I presume that it was the cartridge but I replaced the cartridge and it still does not print. I cleaned the print heads and the cartridge ink levels are full.

  The printhead, cleaning of the screen failed touchscreen printer running.  But when I sat down at my computer and used the program utility printing, he did.  I ran an initial print head cleaning my computer and then clicking the button indicating that the print heads were NOT clean.  He then ran a deep cleansing process.  Then I lined up the printheads of the same print utility program.  Now it works!

• Photosmart HP 5510: The printer does not print in black

  All of a sudden, my printer does not print in black. I replaced the cartridge with a new black cartridge with the same result. All other colours print fine. I checked the settings on the device and it shows that the black cartridge is full.

  If anyone has had this problem and can offer a solution? Thank you very much.

  In the paper here troubleshooting steps can help solve the black does not print on your Photosmart 5510.  Be sure to check the events on the cartridge, as described in the document.  If you go through all the troubleshooting steps without resolving the question then can help to manually clean the print head as shown in the post here.

• 8500 A909a does not print in "black" when it yellow. It is color of ink required to print everything?

  Printer all-in-one HP Officejet Pro 8500 - A909a using Windows 7. The error message is "yellow", but the settings are to print in "black". The printer only works if all inks are operational or is it possible to print with only black ink?

  Even if the unit is configured to print in black ink only requires that all cartridges is available. This is to avoid the printer itself.

  Thus, the printer uses small amounts of color under black ink ink to keep ports in the filled fresh ink print head. This is part of the method that the unit integrated does not damage the printer by allowing the ink to dry in the ports of the print head. Also, this improves the black ink on the slipway of the page and have true black color we're used to seeing in print.

  I hope this helps.

• Photosmart HP 5510 - will not print using black ink

  I have problems with my HP Photosmart 5510 all-in-One printer, because it will not print in black. All cartridges are brand new and are genuine HP cartridges. I've never used anything other than HP cartridges, and I believe that I have would be considered a very light printer user.

  I use a HP Pavilion Desktop PC (Vista Home Premium) connected to the printer via a USB cable.

  I have to 'reset' the printer (power cable removed for 20 seconds), I cleaned the print heads and tried to re-alignment of the printer.

  I ran HP print and Scan diagnostics and do the message "Everything out OK with your product." I then print a test page which "fails", that there is no black ink in use. The diagnosis confirms that the ink levels are all OK and that my printer uses HP authentic and than Normal inks or better quality is selected.

  The printer is a little over a year old and as mentioned has had very light use.

  There is no error - every reason to believe that everything is OK.

  I wish I had a solution to this problem.

  As by chance my previous printer a HP Photosmart 3210 all-in-One failed in a similar way, although in this case, the black was fine, it was impossible to print colors correctly. Once the printer was just out of warranty.

  Curiously enough and fortunately like few others on the forum a few days after the installation of the new cartridge, it seems to work perfectly fine again.  any ideas as to why this happens?

• OfficeJet 660: My printer does not print in black only

  I want to print in black and white, but my printer does not print because my yellow ink is empty.  I tried to change the color to black and white, but it still won't print. Seems ridiculous that all would have to have something in it just to print in black and white.

  You have an Officejet 6600?  This printer has a print head permanent and separate ink supplies.  Little ink is required in all colors to print, even if you print in black only and only one of the colors came out.  (When printing in black color print head is always waving around in the air.  There are few available ink to prevent the nozzles from drying out and butcher them.)

  See here for more information on how the ink is used.  In the terminology of this document, the Officejet 6600 is an IIC printer.

  Sorry, you need to replace the ink color depleted.

• 6510 all-in-one does not print in black

  Hello

  So my off-warranty 6510 has started to not print in black. I bought this in August 2012, and it has been pretty reliable.

  Now it just won't print black. I searched through these forums and I feel like a big community now - I'm not alone with this problem.

  I did print without end cleaning of the printer head and my PC (until the option has disappeared!). Print head alignment failed. And I have replaced the cartridge.

  As it is not in warranty, I took the print head and gave him a * beep * clean. When he was replaced, it only printed a page in black (bad), then no more.

  Print in color if fine, except now (after that numerout head cleans) most of the ink levels are low.

  Stupidly, I expect a miracle and that a HP representative will respond and provide a kind of solution, but I think I know it's out of the dumpster. It'll be the 3rd death of HP printers in 4 years (the first 2 were replaced by the store - Costco).

  At least now that my stock of cartridges is exhausted, I am not bound to HP again as if I was the last time.

  Sort problem. Thank you very much for your support.

• D7360 does not print in "Black Only", unless the color cartridges are also not empty

  I try to print a document in grayscale mode with Photosmart D7360 printer.

  In the Print Setup dialog explicitly checks the possibility of using 'Black Print Cartridge Only'.

  The printer refuses to print, in saying:

  «The following ink cartridges are empty: Light Cyan.» Replace the ink cartridges to resume printing.

  "The printer doesn't have enough ink to ensure printer health. Empty ink cartridges need to be replaced to resume. »

  This means that even if it does not use the color cartridges, each of them must be non-empty when the printer is in operation?
