HP all-in-one 8620: HP all in a single 8620 - will not print black because yellow ink so you are done?

What nonsense, the here!

my printer refuses to print black and white, pages saying that the yellow ink is finished?

only if I buy a wet ink yellow it will print.

Isn't this black mail? What does take to print?

I did print it in black, etc, but still it prints no and gives a banner saying yellow ink purchase

The standard yellow ink is available from HP here.  You can also consider the Multipack colourful three - if yellow is probably exhausted the other colors are not far behind.

With regard to the requirement to have the ink color when you want to only print in black.

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. Deskjet 6980 series is an example, or for an all-in-one, see the 8040 a Officejet.
  • Other printers have separate replaceable printheads and inks.  An example would be the printer Officejet Pro 8620.  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 the printer for the service by replacing the (expensive) print head.
  • 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 6700 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 are ever printing a monochrome laser printer in color 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.

  • My Officejet 6500 E709 all in one will not print black.

    My HP Officejet 6500 E709n all-in-one will not print black.   All other colors work very well.  Have you tried what follows - new black cartridge installed, ran the print heads clean utility, made sure the wind was compatible black ink cartridge, turned printer off and restarted.  Print tests still not print black - other colors and images to print, but not text black or shades of black in images.  Any suggestions on how to fix or what needs to be repaired?  Thank you.

    Hi jim: I just had the same problem a few minutes ago. After having gone through all the troubleshooting steps, I realized it was all just a bad cartridge. The PIN on the printer heads were not reading the new cartridge, so nothing in black print could be printed. I installed a new black cartridge and I could resume my printing projects. I then contacted the HP store directly to report the faulty cartridge while they could send me a new, that I won't be out of pocket for a cartridge I bought directly from them.

    Hope this helps you with your problem.

  • 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?

    Hi @ChrisBird,

    Welcome to the HP Forums

    Looks like you've covered most of the steps, but I will propose always to have a look through this document printer prints blank Page or not printing black or color ink for HP Deskjet Ink Advantage and Deskjet 3520 e-all-in-one printer series to ensure that you have verified that the event on both cartridges.

    If this does not help still nothing and will not always be the black print, please call our technical support team and request a replacement printer. At THAT TIME, regardless of the warranty, they should be able to establish that the replacement for you. Otherwise, let me know and I'll do my best to help you with a resolution.

  • 5512: 5512 printer will not print black - 3 of all colors print correctly

    Hello

    The 5512 will not print black.  New cartridge installed.  Clean print head run more than 5 times without problem.  There was many 5512 'no black printing problem' not noticed on this forum with many courses of resolution.  I followed the instructions found on so many comments, but unfortunitely, the problem still exist.  I noticed there were some done private view so I don't know that there is a similar problem that needs to be processed offline.  Thanks in advance for any help provided.

    Thank you all for the suggestions.

    Nothing has worked for don't solve the "no black ink.

    So, I took the print head of cart and carefully protected the small circuit board on the back side.  There is a large accumulation of ink on the bottom of the Assembly.  I sat the nozzles at the bottom of the distribution of very hot water and allowed some time to soak.  From there on, I used carefully some fabric material and q-tips to wipe the nozzles.  Then I got very hot water, and he ran to the top of the side of the Assembly to the screens and through the nozzles.  This effort lead to a very large discharge of ink black and color.  I dried the Assembly and reassembled the transport to the printer.  Placed all the cartridges back in, ran clean printhead once and then guess what? the printer now prints black and color inks better than he has in years.

    Total time needed to perform this cleanup was less than 30 minutes from start to finish.

    Good luck to all of you who have this problem.

    Before the rampage of the printer, it is interesting to try this fix.

    Good luck!

  • I have a Photosmart Premium all-in-one c310 printer. It will not print black.

    I tried changing the cartridge and still no black.  I also get an error message when I try to align the cartridges.

    Nothing special, just alignment cartridge error.  Any ideas why my black will not print

    It seems that some of the old black ink can be dried in the ports of the printhead from the C310, nyart12020.

    There are a few steps to help solve this problem in the document below:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02187415

    The document led to replace the printhead from the C310.  That's when we could use check whether the printer is IN or out of warranty.

    In case of warranty, then call the HP Technical Support on this printer.

    If outside warranty, then you have two options:

    1. You can buy the print head for a printer C310 from the HP parts store by searching for the CN642a part number.
    2. We can try a step not sanctioned HP to attempt to manually clean the printhead across a dipping process.  Information for how to do this can be located underneath:

  • Office Jet 6500 E710n-z will not print black even just replace the cartridge with a new one.

    This is the 3rd time having problems on "black" even printing ink isn't empty (but the level is low, like a quarter left).  In the previous cases, I replaced the cartridge and the problem resolved.

    The 2nd time was last week.  After I changed the cartridge, it worked (for only 1 week) and the problem is back.  As the ink is full this time and it worked fine when I just changed it, I suspect it is the problem of my printer instead of the cartridge.

    I did clean the print head and align the print heads, but the problem persists.  Please advice solution.  Thank you!

    I hope that the printhead has no need replace. I would like to look at this document on faulty production for your printer model.  I know some steps here mentioned you already make. Please just read / ignore those and try the ones you have not yet completed.  It presents various ways to clean the print head; If you have just done the cleaning of the box tools, I'd defiantly that manual. It also has a ride to make sure that the product firmware is up-to-date.  Here is the link: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02455482

  • New 8620 - will not print in color

    Yesterday I bought a new HP Officejet Pro 8620. Installation was easy, and printing B & W is very good. But I can't get anything to print in color. Diagnostic said OK; the inks are brand new and full.

    I notice that when I want to print, there are only a few options Print - "Standard' and"B & W". How can I increase the options of the printer - as a quick impression, economy, using low ink?

    Thanks for the follow-up and verification the printhead works very well.

    Reset the printing on Mac system. This erase on the printer drivers for the printer and others if added.

    Find and install the updates on Mac.

    • The Apple Software Update icon

    Fix permissions of the drive on the Mac.

    Add the printer in print and Scan, can also be considered as print and Fax.

    Let me know if this allows better printing.

    Hi @Beeky27,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I noticed that your HP Officejet 6210 won't print from your Windows Vista computer. I am pleased to see that for you!

    First of all, I would make sure that the full feature software and drivers are installed, by downloading it from this link: HP full feature software and drivers. Then I would run the HP print and Scan Doctor, to ensure that everything works.

    Let's start with these steps and go from there!

    I hope this helps!
