My photosmart c309a print or copy black ink. I replaced new w ink but still does not

I have a mac.  My photosmart 309 c has suddenly will not print or copy of black ink.  I cleaned the print heads, tried to align (not that), went out & soak the cartridge printing and eventually replaced w / new black ink.  Still nothing!  When I print, I get a black ink when I try to align, but nothing.  Color will print.  Same problem when I try to copy - no black but will get color.  What should I do?

I finally had time today to try the method of back.  It worked!

I took out the print head, continually ran hot water into the Pan so that the water has never been dirty (about 1 inch of water), has run a small flow of water in the black on the top screen that I determined that I had nothing to lose, gently dried the electrical parts and put it immediately into.  Turned on the printer, he crossed the alignment, etc. and printed black (and colors).  Just copied too dark.  It took me about 10-15 minutes for the whole process.

Hope this works for others.  Thank you all for the input.

  • my printer does not print after a new router, I configured it but still does not

    I have a new router and configured it for my printer a Kodak ESP5250, I did all the things the computer told me to to try to resolve the problem, restart spooler ect, but it still won't print and I'm on my work please help. Thank you

    Thank you very much for your help, I was told by a friend to the support ring at Kodak who I did it remotely, they got into my computer and solved the problem, still not sure it was good. I was impressed by the response here and it was fixed in five minutes. So if anyone has a Kodak printer that does not print from the computer, but the impressions of the printer, this is the road to go down. Thanks again for your help.

    First of all, you can try using system restore if the problem just started happening.

    Go to your Start Menu > Accessories > system tools > system restore.

    Select a point of dated system restore to before the problem started happening and then restore your system at this point. During the system restore, you can restore the configuration of your system and you will not lose any personal data, the system restore affects only your configuration.

    After doing the system restore you don't like something that has changed on your system, you can "undo" the restoration of the system.

    If the system restore is not an option for you, or System Restore does not resolve the problem, you can take the measures put forward in the Microsoft Knowledgebase article below:

    You can also try diagnostics automated web site Windows Fix It:

    or take the advanced stages described in the following knowledge base article:

  • Photosmart 6510 print with only black print cartridge?

    Hi, can printing Photosmart 6510 in black & white (not gray, but b & w only) when the black ink cartridge is not empty, but all the other cartridges are? If the color cartridges are not already installed, it will always show b & w?

    Hello

    The 6510 PS will not work if the color cartridges are empty but the black ink.

    However, I think that it would be possible to print using only black ink but to do ink in the cartridges of colour as well because in case of maintenance color cartridges to do little ink in the print head maintenance routines.  When the head is friendly if there was no colour ink this part of the print head could heat upward too or overheat.

    Anyway, back to print in black only.  You mention that you do not want t p rint in black and white so you know where to look in the driver to get to this option. Then in Word, Excel or any program, go to the print function.  Click on properties. Click Advanced. You should see where you have levels of gray.  If you clock in the option box should reveal the other options will be "Black Only". Select this option.

    As I said you should be able to print using only black, but you will need the color cartridges ink.

    Hope this helps.

Colors will be printed, and there is no error message. Wireless printer works from a PC with Windows Vista.

    Help, please.

    Hi, if the printer is on a thing of warranty that may be worth soaking the print head...

    (1) get a pan and put 1/2 "of very hot (not boiling) water in the bottom.
    (2) remove all ink cartridges, then remove the print head Assembly.
    (3) gently put the printhead nozzles down in water and soak for 5 minutes.
    (4) remove the print head and gently dry the electrical contacts.
    (5) replace the print head in the printer and then reinstall the ink cartridges.

  • Photosmart c309a don't copy or print

    All-in-one Photosmart c309a printer not copy remotely or print any of the programs on my pc.  It will however print alignment and test pages when I tried the troubleshooting by HP solutions centers, troubleshooting guide.  I can't even print when the printer is not connected to my pc.  All the ink levels are okay.  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance for your help.

It will address the printer print blank pages and provide troubleshooting steps to try to solve this problem.  Regarding the USB error message, I have a few more questions to ask.

  • Photosmart HP 7510: Change what black ink cartridge is used.

    Our 7510 HP ink slots for small and XL cartridges, however it will not use the small cartridge ink. How to change the parameters to pass to the thin cartridge XL, small is running out of ink and I can't find the black ink cartridge (Photo) in stores now. I bought two 'small', one was a XL, not labelled as such and we ordered cartridges from HP on the web and they were too big too. I need to be able to use the XL Black ink cartridge that is installed.

    Thank you..

    Hello

    First, XL ink cartridges are physically the same size with normal cartridges (same number). The difference is more inks XL cartridges.

    Your printer has 2 black ink cartridges, one narrower called Photo ink cartridge and one large/more bigger called black ink cartridge. When printing in grayscale, the printer will mix all the colors to give B & W. If you want to print black ink only, you must indicate to your printer. Please try

    (a) double-click the desktop printer icon.
    (b) click on set preferences.
    (c) click on advanced.
    d select "Black ink" only for printing in grayscale
    (e) click Ok/apply.

    Note: printer must still all color inks and it will consume a very small amount of ink over the warmng of trial.

    Kind regards.
