• PhotoSmart HP 6520: HP PhotoSmart 6520 Series does not print black

  My HP 6520 is no longer under warranty - just for a little more than a year.  Not printing black - just replaced all the cartridges and black is not printing.  I used the print head cleaning function so many times that I used half of all cartridges including the black who don't print very disappointed in my decision to buy a HP printer!  Is that what I can do in addition to buying a new printer?  I woud guess something wrong with printhead - can it be removed and cleaned?  Help, please!

  Thank you

  Hi Mike,

  May not be clear enough.

  They should support with you because your cartridges are brand new.

  Although they were not available at all firstly I would ask you to contact them again.

  What country do you call?

  Yet once if the printer is a little more than a year, you should not pay for support, but they should be able to help.

  Please try to call their new and persist in your question, and that they can provide support on the cartridges.

• PHOTOSMART PLUS B209a-m: PHOTOSMART PLUS B209a-m does not print the data entered.

  Printer was working fine, but recently had a few power outages in 48 hours.  After the second blackout, we noticed that if we tried to copy and print something, what we would have would be a picture or a diagram of a post, for example I tried to print a tax document of our mortgage company.  The pre-printed outline was shaped did print, but the data that have been added by the mortgage company (name, address, etc.) do not have.

  If someone can guide me in the right direction to rectify this situation I would really appreciate it.

  Hi @Whitey16,

  Welcome to the HP Support forum.

  I understand that your printer HP Photosmart Plus all-in-one worked very well until you've had a few power outages. Since the outages, the printer has been printing a ' photo or diagram of a post "where to send print jobs to the printer on your computer Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan. I would like to help with that.

  The first thing we want to do is to test the functionality of the printer without a computer. Try to print a report to ensure that the functions of the printer printer ok on its own.

  

  If the report of the State of the printer print, then we need to look at the software & drivers used by the computer.

  Then I would reset the printing on Mac system. Here is a document of support from Apple that you can use if you need help with that - reset the printing on your Mac system.

  Once the system has been reset you will need to add the printer back in. When you add the printer you want to be sure to choose the printer drivers and not the driver "Airprint" in the menu drop-down 'Use' on the window "Add" of the printer. Here is an another Apple su [document report that can help you with that - Add or remove a printer.

  Please let me know if that solves the problem, or if you need assistance.

• 4610 Deskjet series: deskjet 4610 series does not print black despite the new cartridge

  Nice day

  I knew that my printer ink level was low. I printed a paper of 10 pages black and white last night and the ink quality was very good. When I printed an extra page, there is no ink on the page. I replaced the ink cartridge today. There is still no black ink printing. The test page is only released in color. Print dark colors. The cartridge is a genuine HP cartridge. The printer is only 2 and a few years.

  Your comments and help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

• Photosmart 6510 b211-a does not print black ink.

  My printer has stopped printing in black ink. Tried several black cartridges, cleaned automatically several times, but no printerhead. The other colors work very well. I feel out of the printerhead and clean it manually, but then of course I buy another printer. Any good advice out there?

  I work with XP, and all other functions works well.

  Troubleshooting document here can help solve problems with black ink print do not.  Make sure that the black wind don't is not clogged, as indicated in this document.

• 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 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.

  Thank you

• hp3520 does not print black

  My printer does not print black. I look and notice that it does not indicate that it stays black in the cartridge. Still, I went and got a new black ink cartridge and it printed the first page in black, but then stop again to print in black. Other colors on paper, but not black.

  Hi cheepazoid,

  I would start by checking all ink and cartridges of weak levels.  I'm a link the user guide for your printer which also contains troubleshooting information.  Click here  I suggest that you click on Maintenance in the guide and follow the steps to manually clean the ink cartridges and options to automatically clean the cartridges up to 3 times.

  Let me know how it goes.

  Good luck!

• HP photosmart Plus B210 series - prints blank pages

  Hello, I got the printer above for about 4 years with no problems. He suddenly started printing blank pages. I went through all the cleaning cycles, alignment etc., but without success. I bought a new genuine HP print head and installed new cartridges and still once, it prints blank pages. The message I get is that alignment process has failed. Does this mean the printer is down and I'll have to buy a new one, or can you suggest a solution? I went through all the steps suggested for this type of printer on your forum, but I still get blank pages. It is a disaster for me and my wife whose work depends on the network printer. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you.

  Hi @drbince,

  Given you have changed the print head and the problem persists, according to me, maybe it's time to consider a replacement printer.

  Alignment is a failure because the printer does not black. If you have followed all the steps in the following document, it might be time to give us a call to weigh your replacement options: HP Photosmart Plus B210 printer - color or black ink not print.

• HP photosmart 210 does not print black one color print

• HP Photosmart Plus B210 series

  Suddenly, my printer has stopped printing in black ink.  The cartridge is full.  It's already happened and I just cleaned everything and it started working again.  This time, I cleaned it again, it printed one page and then arrested again to print.  I cleaned it again and it will not print black ink.  I cleaned the print heads and tried to re-aligned with the printer.  The alignment fails every time.  What has something to do with it not printing black ink?  It doesn't make sense to me that this issue would be part of the problem, but maybe it is.

  All my color cartridges are out of ink.  This has something to do with the problem of it not not printing black ink?  That does make sense to me either.  If this is the problem, then I'll spend money for the color of the ink.  Printers frustrate me beyond words.  They simply stop without apparent reason.

  Would appreciate any help I can get.

  Hello Catstuder,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I understand your frustration and want to shed some light on why the guard alignment fails and why you do not get all black on your thoughts even if you have a totally black cartridge installed.

  1. in the printer to print control and alignment to pass, it takes all cartridges to be installed in the B210. You can print in black ink only, but the printer will still use the ink contained in the cartridges of color for maintenance tasks. It takes little ink from all cartridges in the service of the print head and avoid any clogging.

  2. with the printers ink system, it only does not use black ink even though you can choose to print in black ink only. Have a look here: use of inkjet printers ink.

  I propose to replace the color cartridges, and I am sure that you will have no problem. If you want to print in black ink only, take a look at the steps below:

  1. in your software application, click print.

  2. Select your printer in the list of available printers.

  3. click on the option opens the printer properties dialog box. According to your application software, this option could be called printer properties, Options, Configure the printer, printer, or Preferences.

  4. click on the features tab, click the Grayscale dropdown menu and then click on black ink only.

  5. click OKand then click print to start printing.

  I hope this has been helpful, if you have more questions please let me know!

  I found this informative information here:a 'ink alert' or "Low on ink" Message appears on the computer or the printer control panel

• PHOTOSMART HP 6520 does not print black. And the ink levels estimated for the other inks are not correct.

  Hi, I bought my photosmart Hp 6520 year last, October. But it is no more print black after replacing ink twice. I tried to clean the print head with water and tried "clean print head" in tools, does not solve the problem...

  What is wired is that I bought 4 new 564 inks the hp of the target 2 days ago, printed only less than 10 pages to see if the problem is resolved. Then my printer told me that the cartridge is too low... Is this possible?

  It makes me crazy now... What is even worse, I used a tool to detect my printer, and he said that is no longer under warranty... But he was only 9 months... How can I solve this problem? Thank you.

  The document here can help solve the black does not print on your Photosmart 6520.  Be sure to check the vents, as on the three solution.

  If this does not resolve the issue I suggest you call HP (1-800-HPINVENt to the United States, see here for details by the way).  The warranty online tool is an estimate, they will have a process of updated the status of the guarantee if necessary.

  I have a HP All In One 410C series. Serial number [deleted for privacy reasons].

  I can print color but not black.

  Can you help me? Thank you.

  I want to help you to be able to print again. I understand your color cartridges work, but it's not black ink.  Please start with the procedure described in the following document; The problems of quality of printing to the HP Photosmart Premium Fax all-in-One Printer Series (C410a C410b, C410c, C410d, C410e)

  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.
