HP psc photosmart 2410: I want to print only black

Similar Questions

• Photosmart 7510 - I want to use only black ink since I don't have all the need for a color.

  Photosmart 7510 - I want to use only black ink since I mainly use this for work and don't have all the need for a color. If I have more ink, can I just replace the black and it still work? Thank you very much for any information you may have!

  Hello

  I did a few test last year, you can print black only master always need color ink for the printer. Black setting only as a default printer will only print black and it consumes a little over heating of the process color inks. In short, it will not be printed correctly when run out of color ink (s) or does not start at all.

  Kind regards.

• PSC photoSmart 2410 - Vista - a LOT of problems

  Hello - I am trying to help a friend, and I'd like YOUR help!  :-)

  Printer: HP PhotoSmart PSC 2410

  System: Windows Vista (G - help us)

  PROBLEMS:

  1. it seems that since Vista was installed on XP (a year ago) the printer will not print or copy in B & W

  One exception - unit would BE printing when printing from the program of electronic messaging - but nothing else!

  (I ran the printer head cleaning and re-alignments unit and clean the cartridge by hand - it seems in good condition)

  (I got tones of gray when you print the page example of Unity)

  -Could there be a connection with the installation of Vista, as it seems?

  -What else could prevent B & W print and copy on this unit?

  2. the analysis unit also is more - unit printer says to set up the printer on the computer software, but, obviously, it isn't any Vista software for the printer.

  3. my friend tried to reinstall XP drivers - which seems to have wiped out the Vista drivers - when I try to have Vista restores the drivers, it fails to do anything!

  (I unplug the printer, shut down printer, restart Vista, restart the printer, connect printer--> nothing happens.)

  There's something else I should do - why aren't installing Vista drivers?

  -Are there something short of reinstalling Vista, can I do to get generic drivers for Vista working again?

  Y at - THERE * ANY * DRIVER - HP or third-party THAT WILL GET A VISTA SYSTEM WORKING WITH THIS DEVICE?

  Thank you.

  OK - I've had more time to return to the House of my friend today to solve this problem.

  The two main symptoms:

  (1) do not copy

  (2) do not print with the exception of a web browser

  BOTH are down to a bad toner B & W cartridge.

  The thing was fairly new, and the ink was still pretty busy. I had cleaned the heads and ink flowed easily from the cartridge - maybe it was the oxidation of the contacts or broken connectivity.

  The * full * lack of impression after an attempt to install XP drivers was not related to this attempt, but the USB cable on the device after loosening.

  Once the USB cable is properly plugged in and installed a new black cartridge, of the test pages worked, copy worked at B & W color and printing applications worked.

  FINALLY - functions of scanner was enabled using VueScan ($40).

  THUS, in addition to the fax functions (I don't have time too check and that my friend does not use), this of HP PSC Photosmart 2410 is now fully functional.

  Isn't * that that HP get away for failing to update the drivers for units like this - they still let us lower notes in this regard, for this unit.

  Thanks to those who tried to help!

• HP ENVY 5644 e-all-in-one Prin: I want to print in black and white

  Hello

  I wanted to print in black and white but still my printer print in color when there is a picture in the paper, it's really annoying because when I go to the properties of the printer I press black and white or black press ink only then when I press on save, I'll be back in the printer properties to find her back to color No matter how many times I put it in black and white it goes back to color. I tried pressing black and white and not return to the printer properties, but it still prints in color. Also, I changed my default settings of the printer in black and white through the control panel and tap Save. When I go into Control Panel, its saved printer properties such as black and white by default, so that's good. But for some reason when theres color of text or an image on the page I want to print, I can not change to print in black and white, keeps coming back to color.

  Please help me!

  Hello @Matthew002, hope you are well!

  Thank you for joining the HP support forums, I would like to help

  I understand that you are having problems when printing in black and white and also the printer goes "offline".

  Going through your post, this could be a problem with the printer drivers. In this case, we might need to uninstall the drivers and re - install the same.

  • If present, disconnect the USB cable between the printer and the computer.
  • Go to control panel of configuration-programs and feature - select the HP Envy printer entries and uninstall them.
  • Restart your computer.
  • Now, click http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software13/printers/en5640/Basic_Webpack_x64-40.2.1073-EN5640_Basicx64_Webpack.exe and install the printer drivers.
  • If you are prompted, connect the USB cable.

  Now try to change the printing preferences:

  • Go to control panel - devices and printers - give Envy 5640 right-click and select Printing Preferences.
  • In the pop-up window, click on the 'Advanced' button - check for printing in grayscale option. Make sure it is turned on

  PS: Your printer support mode single cartridge. So if you want to completely stop color printing you can get out the color cartridge and use only black.

  Let me know if this helps. Good luck!

  See you soon

• using the color laserjet 3600n - I want to print in black and white, but it prints black and white negative. * beep *.

  using the color laserjet 3600n - I want to print in black and white, but it prints black and white negative.  * beep *.

  I was able to recreate what you see.   I managed to work around it by installing a different driver that is also supposed to be compatible with the CLJ3600.

  Please consider trying this as a possible solution:

  (1) uninstall the driver CLJ3600 by opening printers and fax machines, driver selection and right-click on it and select Delete.  Once it is removed, right-click on an empty space in the windows printers and faxes and select Server properties.  Click the driver tab, click the CLJ3600 and then click on remove.

  One when you're done, restart, and then install the CLJ3500 driver.  This is a previous version of the driver that has been implemented for the CLJ3600 and is compatible with the CLJ3600.

  After installation, try printing again.

  The output I have indicates it will print is more negative.  Please let me know if you have success.

  One caveat about this solution.  The Color LaserJet 3500 doesn't support duplex.  Of workaround only works for two printing on the package of basic or the Color LaserJet 3600 N.

• 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.

• I want to print in black and white only on my hp photosmart 6520

  Photosmart 6520 windows 7 How do I put this so it prints only in black and white not color at all times.

  Hi macys.

  Welcome to the HP forums!

  Implemented a Photosmart 6520 for black ink only from your Windows 7 computer? That I can help with

  You will want to start devices and printers (via your control panel) with access to your folder and right-click on your Photosmart 6520 icon and select Printing Preferences. The window that opens will be similar to the display on the left of the screenshot below. On this screen you click the Advanced button, and then you will see a screen similar to the one on the right of the screenshot. There, you go the black ink only setting and press OK. Press and then apply on the previous screen before pressing OK again. The driver will now be on use black ink only.

  

  Let me know if that does the trick for you!

• Photosmart 8450 prints only black and white with the new Mac with OS 10.6

  I just bought a new Mac with OS 10.6.  (former was OS 10.5)  Now my Photosmart 8450 will print only in black and white.  I installed the single upgrade on the site of HP, no change.

  Is there an other update I need?

  You want to disable automatic session opening, which may be why it behaves in this way.

  Go to System Preferences

  Go to security

  Under "for all accounts on this computer", place a check mark next to 'turn off automatic connection.

  In addition, I do not know if you set a password for the test account, but put something simple as 123 - just something / anything.

  Once that is done, choose log in the Apple menu, or reboot. This should bring you to the login screen where you can specify the account to enter.

  Hello bcgoodwrench,

  I don't see you mention the presence of 'BLACK'.

  
  If there was no black printing, then I would say you call the HP Technical Support for assistance.

  If you are in the United States, the toll free # is 1-800-474-6836 .

  If you are not in US , then log on to www.hp.com , bottom left there is a world map icon, click it, and then select the region that you belong to, which would then provide the support options for you for this region.

  Kind regards

• 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?

• Photosmart HP 5510 will not print in black

  I replaced the cartridge, made sure that the cartridge was evacuated, but could not find the control panel how to clean the print head. I followed the instructions carefully, but my computer laptop gateway has not called to configuration tools.

  Hello patl46616,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  I understand that your Photosmart 5510 print no black ink. I will do my best to help you! You can "Clean printhead" on the control panel of your printer:

  1. Make sure that this ordinary letter of white American or A4-size paper is loaded in the tray.
  2. From the Control Panel Home screen, press the right arrow key ( ), then tap the Setup icon ( ).
  3. Tap Tools , and then tap print head cleaning . The printer cleans the print head and then prints a test page.

  Also, follow this HP document on fixing of the streaks of ink faded prints and other common Print quality problems Please post your results, I will be looking forward to hear from your part have a good night!

• OfficeJet 4635 or want 5661: printing in black and white, scale to gray, but WITHOUT color cartridge, or dead-dried-up color

  I almost always (more than 100% of the time) print out text B & W, duplex, 2-up.  my old HP PSC 1315 works very well with a drying cartridge, using only black ink color.  but it's send me paper transport problems, carrying across multiple pages and ruin my impression sequence.

  I am considering the 4635 Officejet or all in one Envy 5661.   two of them prints my way, WITHOUT requiring that I have a liquid color cartridge loaded (much less actually need that I use color ink)?

  Thank you

  6551 envy may print as a "single-cartridge" mode with the color (or black) cartridge, completely washed out as described on page 52 of the manual here:

  Use single-cartridge

  Use single-cartridge use the HP ENVY 5660 series with only one cartridge. Mode single-cartridge begins when an ink cartridge is removed from the distribution of ink cartridges. Mode single-cartridge, the printer can copy documents, copy pictures and printing from the computer.

  NOTE: When the HP ENVY 5660 series operating in mode single-cartridge, a message appears on the printer screen. If the message appears and two ink cartridges are installed in the printer, make sure that the piece of plastic tape protection was removed from each ink cartridge. When the Ribbon plastic covers the ink cartridge contacts, the printer cannot detect the cartridge is installed.

  The Officejet 4635 lists similar features on page 77 here user guide.  The Officejet 4635 does not explicitly say that it will copy with only one cartridge, it would be something to check if you choose this model. [In fact, may be a good thing to check with each model - the user guides are sometimes wrong...]
