F2180 fails to print in black

I have an opportunity intermittently F2180 used primarily as a photo-Copier and scanner. It's about a year or two.

It stopped printing black. I tried three different cartridges (both new), cleaning, software diagnosis of HP, etc. but nothing helps.

As part of these actions, I very rarely managed to get a small black print fragmented on a single page. Colors work very well. Diagnostic software shows no flaws. Contacts interfacing to the cleaning cartridge made no improvement.

Another thing to try before the pruning of the thing in the trash?

Thank you

Hey Talyinka,

No problem!  Concerning the program of upgrade in England, I don't know if it is available in the United Kingdom.  I'm in the United States and it is an option, but not all regions have the same programs.  I try to call HP - line UK Technical Support and ask what options are available to a unit of the officer of the WATCH (OOW).

To access the Technical Support UK line please follow the Contact HP link provided above.  Select UK and English to be directed to the page for contact information.

Hope this helps,

Jason

  • Photosmart C410a fails to print in black

    C410a stopped printing in black. No error message appeared. Supplies indicator revealed a level a bit low for the black ink, but not empty.

    Ciara_B, thanks for the post of care. Yes, I tried the suggestion of Bob. It was quite an adventure! As expected, considerable ink washed the frame. In the end, no joy. After a few glass smoking and strong, I abandoned all hope for the weekend. During the following Tuesday I took a blow when printing, and miraculously, black printing worked OK.

    At this point, I'm puzzled as to how or what could have affected the cure, after changing the black ink twice before the procedure of "soaking". Given the lack of effect on revenues HP, I'me reluctant to consider this as a plot by the company to sell more cartridges. However, I am open to suggestions.

    Thank you once again.

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • My photosmart printer 6510 prints only black

    My photosmart 6510 prints only black & white with my mac test i is printed 4 color bars

    Looks like the wrong driver is installed. Try to remove and time the printer and check which driver is used.

    Go to system, then print and fax Preferences (print and scan over 10.7), then highlight the printer and go to sign less down to remove it. After that, click on the plus sign to readd it. When you highlight in the list of so that the background box should tell the 6510 print using, if it says something else bad driver is used.

    If this is the case, you have a few options. Try to run an update of the apple software, it can find a printing hp update software, install that, if she does and try to add the printer again. If it still fails to solve, the next option would be to reset the printing system

    To reset printing system go to this window print and fax again and the white box where the printers are listed on the left hold down the CTRL key and click. This should give you an option to reset the printing system. This will remove all of THE printers that you have added, so if you have others you should readd them. After that itll request your password, put it in to confirm, once thebox restart the mac, and add the printer again.

  • New Photosmart 5520 will not print in black

    I have a new HP Photosmart 5520 printer all-in-one.  Black ink ran out so I replaced it with a previously used ink cartridge which is of the same type # 564 but a XL version.  This cartridge has been barely used.  Now, I just can't get anything to print in black.  It will print in color, but not black.  I tried to turn off the printer.  I put the cartridge in my printer and it worked fine.  What should I do?

  • HP 7500 has: has HP 7500 or HP C309g can print in black

    My HP 7500 has no my HP C309g can print in black. The 7500 had the same problem before, so I went to my other printer for a month and he got mysteriously? Now, will not print in black. Yes, genuine inks, cleaning head complete and I tried, but the chances of the two get a dirty print head at the same time is microscopic.

    Hi @kanshaku

    I want to help you be able to use two printers again. I understand that the black ink is not working. Please start with the procedure described in the following document; The problems of print quality for the HP Officejet 7500 (E910a and E910c) to Grand Format Printer e-all-in-one series.  This document applies to these two printers because they have such similar ink systems.

    If you have performed all the steps in the document above and the problem persists, not one of HPs, my personal recommendation is to use the solution put forward in the next video.  I suggest that if the printhead and the printer he are out of warranty.  Hot water rinse printhead - HP ink printers of the series with removable head.

    I have recommended this solution to others and have been successful, but I can't guarantee that this will solve the problem, it is a term of type line of effort. I hope it helps.

  • HP4480: will not print in black

    I have recently upgraded to the version of windows in 10 home edition 1511.  I have a HP4480 that is compatible with windows 10.  It is updated with the correct drivers.

    My printer will be printed in black and white if I copy a document on the printer, HOWEVER it will not print in black and white if I print a document on my laptop or from a Web page.  I'm also using Microsoft Edge.

    I run Scan Doctor, clean my print heads, made sure everything is aligned, but can not determine why I can not print in black and white the computer laptop but can from the printer.

    The diagnostic message only I received is "peripheral composite USB does not work with USB 3.0' I have no idea what this means and don't think that I have the choice for the ports on my Inspiron 15R laptop 5520.»

    I've also posted on the Microsoft forums but really need to get the printer works with the operating system and cannot afford to buy a new printer just because I upgraded.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you.

    I solved the problem.  For some reason, my real print HP 60 cartridge was the question.   Almost empty, I left forward without problem.  Once I replaced the cartridge, all now print correctly in black and white.

  • E HP Print prints only black and white

    I print from an iPad on a printer Hp 5520, using print e. Hp previously was no problem until recently, it has now stopped printing in color and will be only only printing in black and white.
    If I print using the print on the iPad icon, I am still able to print in color, but I want to use the additional settings available in e print.
    I suspect that it may be to do with my an update of e print or IOS download

    I would appreciate any advice please.

    Hello R0dder5,

    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I see that you do not want to be able to print using all options available in the HP ePrint app for your iPad.

    I'm sure that you already have, but my first suggestion is to check the settings in the HP ePrint app to ensure that it did not retain the setting.   If you choose the color setting is always print in black and white?  If so, please try to uninstall and reinstall the application.  You will have to start the activation process.  I've included the HP ePrint Mobile App FAQ document.  There the steps to uninstall the app, if you need it.

    Please let me know what happens.
