HP Deskjet 3520 doesn't print any black ink, will print colors

I have to keep cleaning print head?  I have to wait 30 minutes between cleanings?  All cartridges are full.  Cleaning how usually takes to lead?  What other problem would be?

I turned to 'off' in the Properties , the gray levels, and that has solved the problem!

  • DeskJet 3520 doesn't print until the computer has been restarted

    I had this printer for years and have never had a problem with printing until recently.  When I try to print something (whether from a Web page or a word document), it crosses as if everything is OK and even displays the print icon down in the taskbar.  But the page will not be printed in fact until what I restarted the computer.  I tried troubleshooting, but this utility says that there is nothing wrong.  My laptop has windows 7 and when I looked for drivers, he said that windows 7 has updated drivers.  I've pretty much exhausted at this stage of my knowledge of the printer!

    The only changes that I made recently are to move from a cleaner who had windows vista on a laptop that has windows 7.  And it printed fine when I made the change.

  • My Deskjet 3520 does not print envelopes. None of the proposed solutions work.

    My DEskjet 3520 does not print envelopes.  I tried all the solutions, and none of them work.  My operating system is Windows XP Professional SP 3.  The computer is a Dell inspiron 530.   There is noe error messages.  When the envelope comes out of the printer, it is empty.  When an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper is in the printer, the address information prints on the right edge of the paper in landscape format.

    My conclusion is that there is a serious error in the software.

    If there is any workaround I would be grateful to receive them.

    I simply "duped" the copier and formatted the envelope to print in the center of an 8 1/2 X 11 inch paper landscape page.  It took a few violins, but I've got envelopes printing.

    Comment

    In my opinion, unless you want to print the notice yourself for some reason, this might be the time to look for a local printing Service company that can help by printing the invitations for you with your special message / staff.

    You can provide the staff of print service with a sample of your message that is printed on plain paper.  This way you are not tempted and then perhaps overwhelmed with choices that may be other than what you have already decided.

    Why use a printing Service?

    • This printer also beautiful be, isn't able to print invitations from the way you expect.
    • The invitations are likely to be expensive and perhaps not easily replaceable.
    • The test phase may exceed the number of invitations you want to risk.

    If you do, you could remove this in your list of items "I do" and entrusts the care professionals.

  • HP Deskjet 3520: My HP Deskjet 3520 won't print black after replacing the cartridge

    I just replaced all my ink cartridges in my HP DESKJET 3520 printer (it's wireless).  It prints fine colour, but not black.  I tried to clean the print head, align the cartridges, check the intake on the cartridges.  I have also just opened another black cartridge, thinking maybe my new was defective.  So now, I've just lost a cartridge.

    so frustrated! My printer is more than a year now.  So not guaranteed.  When I click on the printer ink levels, he is grateful I have full cartridges - but is not printing in black at all.

    FYI, never heard of anyone in case HP. himself seems to have resolved the day after. Now my black ink cartridge works.

  • HP Deskjet F4480: Can I use just black ink in my printer HP Deskjet F4480?

    I have a HP Deskjet F4480 printer.  I only use it to print in black ink.  Is it possible to use only black ink in the printer (which is much cheaper)?  Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Grayscale is more useful for printers that have four or more cartridges. You can find on the feature by clicking on this link, but I'm not positive how useful it will be for you.

    Insert a black cartridge in the color slot will not have to act as a backup cartridge. The printer will see that it is not a color cartridge and refuses to read or use it.

    Please let me know if that solves your problems.

  • DeskJet 3630: HP DeskJet 3630 doesn't recongize 803 black carteidge int

    Hello. I met a problem when I using 803 ink cartridge black (instead of 63 black cartridge int) in my DeskJet 3630. The printer cannot detect the 803 even black ink cartridge, I tried two new 803 black ink cartridges that have been purchased in the supermarket. If DeskJet 3630 can use only 63 ink cartridge? If not, could you please give me some suggestions on how to fix this? Thank you very much.

    BTW: I tried all the solutions on the site of HP comfortable support.

    You bought the printer in a country and are now in another country?  You will need to Contact HP to ask a "regionalization Reset." Do not charge for this, it is covered under the warranty of the cartridge. You will need to have access to your computer and printer then on line with HP. You will also need to have a set of cartridges for the new region, once completed reset cartridges of region of origin no longer works.  Webpage of HP on the subject is here.

  • DeskJet 1050 J410 no black ink will print.

    Recently, I changed my black ink cartridge and now the black ink does not print. It shows that the cartridge is full, and it's a brand new cartridge to the store. When I print, the book will come out with only one color of ink. I tried to clean the heads printing, but in vain. Can someone please?

    Try to reset the printer and check if that solved the problem.

    1. turn on the printer and open the cartridge access door.
    2. remove the black and color cartridges from the printer and close the door.
    3. disconnect the power cord to the back of the printer.
    4. wait for 30 seconds and connect the power cable to the printer.
    5. If the printer does not automatically, press the power button to turn it on.
    6. install the cartridges.

    Now, try to print and check for the problem is solved.

  • Does not print any black ink

    Hello, I have a Photosmart C6380 all-in-One Printer.  It will not print in black ink.  The other colors work very well.  I changed the 4 smaller cartridges because they were all low or empty.  The larger black cartridge is about half full, perhaps slightly slot so I have not yet changed.  When I print, it prints all colors except black.  I really want to buy another cartridge with him still having a lot of ink left.  However, the other day I tried to make a copy just for the heck of it.  Dang, he printed the copy very well.  I shook my cartridge twice.  The first time right before printing to think perhaps this would help.  The second time right before I did the copy.  So why will it work for the party copy, but not printing?

    I also tried assigning the factory settings, but that didn't help either.  Also, I had problems with the office, so I can't try it print again until I get this job.  I tried to download the software of the printer on my laptop, but it does not work.  I would also like to be able to print wireless with my laptop and printer.  How can I do once I get the downloaded software?

    Thank you!

    Color cartridges are typically used when you print copies unless the printer is set for improved text and the copied document is recognized as text.  Try to print a page of test, as shown in step 4 here.  If black is not printing, follow the steps in troubleshooting in this page, especially looking at the vents and cleaning of the print head.  After the first seven steps, if the problem persists the following may help.

    Please read this post then provide some details.   What operating system?  Running the diagnostics to http://www.hp.com/go/tools can help solve the problem.

  • Black ink will not print on Photosmart Premium C309a

    The printer works fine until last night.  The last printed page has been very weak, couldn't read.  Black ink levels are fine and still print color ink.  I ran HP diagnostic test and it said that there is nothing wrong with the printer.  Any suggestions?

    Found a link to another post in the forums with the same title as this one.  Follow the instructions to remove the print head and cleaning and soaking in hot water.  After 5 minutes of cleaning and rinsing all works well now.  Ignore the post above about changing the color settings in the printer preferences.
