MP560 print no black ink

My MP560 ceased to print black text.  Ink cartridges are filled.  Spotlight prints all colors perfectly.  But when I print a doc from my PC or laptop displays only colored text.

I used the utility Menon to do a clean and deep cleaning.  No help.

I checked the ink cartridges for the pieces of plastic that could prevent the ink from flowing.  No help.

I followed the suggestion of bgnewjersey, watched this YouTube video on the removal and cleaning of the print head (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZheZf-vdho8) and clean up.  Reinstalled and still, the printer prints all the colors, including black on the target but does print when I print a black text document.

Any other ideas?

I have a MX860, also ceased to print what it is black, have tried everything know to man to solve this problem, it is my opinion that the problem is in the circuit get in the printer it self. Reloading, reboot, reinstall did nothing. Here is my solution to the problem.  If this is a problem with the printer it self saying printing printing, the head, I thought lets try having the printer give print head a different set of instructions. I've pulled up a black and white document in Word format, went in Configuration of the printer, change the TYPE of PAPER to PAPER PHOTO GLOSS MEDIA. You can leave it on standard print quality. On the MX860 it load paper from the REAR test in this mode. I also checked the box at the bottom left to use this setting for all future prints. When I click PRINT, it load paper from the bin back and printed the paper perfectly. I also printed a photo 4 x 6 and it also printed perfectly. Yes, it did take longer to print the document, but 'so what' in my case, to wait a little longer is not a question of real evolution. The result is that with the printer set to glossy paper mode, it prints something black or color perfectly. Of course, this fix does not address the original problem which, in my view, cannot be fixed.

  • Passage of printing in black ink to print ink color and visa versa

    I am running an Imac OSX Yosemite 10.10 operating system.  I want to print in black ink only, so I do not use up my color ink cartridges, but when I opened the impression that there is no option (I see) to make this change.  I've updated my drivers today and still do not see the option to change printing black printing color (gray scale).  My printer is a HP Officejet Pro L7555.  I'd appreciate any help.

    Hi @DennisBelle

    I can help you manage your print settings. I wonder if the option you are looking for is not available when you use the AirPrint driver and if you use this driver instead of the HP driver.

    We will restore the printing system, repair disk permissions and add new printer using the HP driver.

    1. Click on the Apple icon ( ), then click on System Preferences.

  • HP deskjet 3520 scan copy main: print in black ink only

    Thanks robert

    Welcome to the HP community @robert3591,

    I read your post want to print in black ink only, from your Deskjet 3520 and how, you do not select this option, every time you print from your Windows Vista system.

    I would say to change the option to print in black ink only from "Devices and printer" to contain the parameter always print in black. This is a great detailed post from my colleague @X-23 , which shows all the instructions and screenshots:

  • HP Envy 4520: How do printer print in black ink with touchscreen?

    I am printing newspapers in my semi truck in color but you want to print in black ink. How can I change the parameter in black ink with touch screen, printer or Android?

    Hi @ milky2112.

    Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support. I understand that you want to print in black ink only. I would like to help.

    This can be done via the screen touch printers. It is simply not an option. You have two good options.

    (a) remove the color cartridge and print mode single cartridge.

    (b) when printing from your Android, use the HP ePrint app.

    The User Guide explains more on the mode of single cartridge.

  • HP Officejet 6500 Wireless print with black ink

    HP Officejet Wireless 6500 won't print with black ink. This printer as worked perfectly for years. Now, all of a sudden, he leaves by using black ink. All other colors are working very well. Any ideas?

    I tried several cleanings and reset by pressing on # and 3 when turning the power on. Nothing works, but the ink levels are declining due to all the cleanings trying to get this thing to work.

    I have it!

    I have searched all over the internet for a solution to this problem. Some people have the right idea, but not how to implement it.

    Problem: Black ink doesn't print all colors print but not

    Reason: for black print head is clogged.

    Implementation of solution:

    Set 920 ink jet cartridges in cartridge print head which is held in place by small arm on the right side of the ink cartridges.

    1. remove all the ink cartridges. I didn't want them to dry, so I wrapped them in plastic wrap.

    2. lift the arm and remove the print head cartridge.

    3 rinse the WHOLE print HEAD under a stream of water. I know it sounds crazy, but it will work. I thought it was best to rinse all the (not only black) because if I did not then the ink left any color would dry up and clog in any case!

    4. I leave the printhead to dry for about an hour, BUT IT DOES NOT WORK. When I handed the printhead my 6500 gave me an error message that it could not find the head of printing or something like that. I thought I ruined which was the risk I was willing to take. I went online and searched for a replacement at low prices. I immediately ordered it. But I have excluded the old printhead to dry just in case it is water which made it unnecessary.

    5. four days later I received a new printhead. Before I opened the package I tried the old an new AND IT WORKED! First, I installed the old print head cartridge, then each of the inks. After having done that, the 6500 did the rest. He went on a very long print head cleaning and alignment. He gave me the message "Please wait. Printer preparation occurring. »

    6. when the cleaning and alignment end it automatically prints a test page. It didn't look perfect the first time, but it was close. The message I got was, 'success. Alignment with success. Recycle or discard the printed page. Press Ok to continue. "The problem was that the ink cartridges were emptied of this whole process, even though they had about half of the ink when I removed them left. I changed the ink cartridges and did a cleaning and a level 2 cleaning and alignment. It worked!

    7. because I could not return the new printhead that I am now in case of failure of the print head for another reason.

    I don't know how long it will take to dry print head after rinsing but I know works of 4 days. Perhaps a few days would have been sufficient. If someone does and less time please let others know here.

    If you don't have success using my method, at least you know it will solve a new printhead. I paid about $35 for a new.

    Good luck!!

  • 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.

    I have upgraded to OS to win 10 and my printer does not print with black ink only.  I ran a test and black ink appears here.  I print a few things ok in black only before having to make a reset in progress and had to reinstall a ton of programs and software.  No matter what I do with the properties, it will not be printed on the page and try to use colorful tanks that are empty.  It was never a problem before using win 7.  Please help ASAP!

    There are a few things to check:

    • Make sure the paper type is set to plain paper.  If Auto is selected and is confused with the Photo paper paper or photo paper is selected only the color and photo cartridges will be used.  (The pigmented black ink cartridge is not compatible with photo paper).
    • Define advanced settings for printing in grayscale, black ink only.  Otherwise, the printer may by default using inks from color for chart areas, since this offers a better print quality due to the smaller droplets of ink color.
