• 4620 OfficeJet won't print black

  My printer does not print anything in black. I replaced the cartridge black and tried everything to troubleshoot print quality and troubleshooting blank pages printed without result.

  I tried using Mac OS X 10.8 and Windows 7 64-bit, with the same results.

  @PetuniaJH

  Because it's a 4620 I would advise calling HP hotline, regardless if it is no longer under warranty...

• HP officejet 6500 not print black ink

  Have already used twice tools to check/fix printhead etc. and check all colors except black.  Of course now the colors are low because of controls but Black Watch 2/3 full.  Suffered the underside of the black print cartridge and has still not printing.

  There may be something clogging the printhead.  Do mechanical print head cleaning and check the ventilation on the cartridges, as indicated in this document.  If the wind seems correct, and cleaning do not receive black printing as it should, then you have to move to make a physical cleaning of the print head.  Bob_Headrick was kind enough to show the steps of this message.  After the physical cleaning you wish to still not able to get a black printing, then you will either need to buy a new printhead, or buy a new printer.  This printer print head is not all that expensive compared to the other models, but you can only buy it directly from HP.  I'll link the information to get in touch with them below. The link takes you to a form to fill out. Once you fill it and she is treated, it will give you the printers warranty information, a file number and the phone number to call.

• My Officejet 4620 do not print black ink

  I replaced the black cartridge on my Officejet 4620 with a new high-capacity HP cartridge and it won't print black ink on the test page, any application or function of Copier.  I have reset the printer nothing helps.  The ink level indicates that it recognizes the new cartridge and says it's full.  Black ink out of the cartridge when I put my finger against the exit hole.  I cleaned and aligned the print heads, but still no go.

  just in case someone else has this problem, heres whats really past and heres how to fix this annoying problem. its relatively easy to do and more efficient than wasting money on a new printer or have that he repaired as most people eventually do.

  going on what? the ink has clogged print heads and solidifies closed. the function of "clean print heads" the printer comes with doesn't have the ability to solve this problem. This feature is to clean the heads Sales, not clogged heads. Why hp decided to make this model without a simple to remove the cradle is beyond me, but fortunately the cradle out and can be cleaned with hot water.

  theres a few items, you will need to get there easily, or you could just burst the branch loppers, like I did and vent your frustrations.

  you will need: a pair of slender beak pliers, a screwdriver torx T9 (selling auto parts stores them for a few dollars), paper towels and a space for work (its easier to do this in a corner of a room, on a small table or floor).  Keep in mind that you are dealing with ink, then change your clothes right just in case and also catch a paper plate or a few sheets of paper to print to set ink cartridges while you work.

  (1) ok. lets start. !!! FIRST UNPLUG THE PRINTER RIGHT NOW, IF YOU DO NOT ACCIDENTALLY DIE BY ELECTROCUTION!  I forgot and when I started unscrewing the first 6 screws, kept chime jump and im like * beep *? I was impressed by the security measures hp took as model engineering.

  (2) the printer is now disconnected and then go to your corner your work surface and place the printer, so there is a wall or a barrier on the left, and also, a wall or a fence behind it. This just in front of her as if you were about to use it.

  (3) now, what you have to do, is to open the printer as you will change the ink and on the right side, there is a plastic guide that prevents opening all the way to the top. Look on the side and you'll notice that he could jump off with fingers. pop off and open it completely open, so you can get to the screws of the cover you would have prevented access to.

  (4) press the scanner part and the upper part against the back wall.

  (5) all the screws you will be remove are the size T9H torx screws. There are ten total. There are 2 black screws in the top of the forehead and then 4 black screws in the top of the back. Remove them and put them on your paper plate.

  (6) following is 1 screw silver short located under the Control Panel, use your finger and feel under the * button. Unscrew, place it on the paper plate.

  (7) depending on whether you want to remove the face/Control Panel to get in the last 3 screws so locate the illustrations on the top of the printer, there are 2 on the lower left and 5 at the bottom right (1 and 2 on the left explain removals of paper jam and 1-5 on the right then explain change in ink cartridges). then about half an inch South of the illustration of the number 5 on the lip, is a plastic stand. six inches to the left is an another then 6 inches to the left, under the number of the illustration 2 (remove the paper jam) is a third support. Unscrew using your nails. Flip it up just like the hood of the car, and eten on the main top of the printer, keep the flat wire which is connected to the frame of the control panel (if the flat wire jumped because you got too loud, then simply insert it in when you go back).

  (8) then unscrew the 3 long silver screws that are located under the Panel you just popped off the coast. There is 1 on the left and 2 on the side rightish. mix 'em on the paper plate.

  (9) now that all the screws are removed, take the Panel front and partially pop it back together.

  (10) then take all over (the part with the small illustrations and lift like a hood of car, ONLY THIS TIME OPEN IT LEFT and he balanced on the edge of the printer, to lean over towards the wall or an obstacle on your left.) MAKE SURE NOT TO PULL ON THE STRIP OF COLORFUL SON FRUITS LEFT AND ALSO THE FLAT BLACK WIRE CONNECTING PART SCANNING FOR THE MAIN OF THE PRINTER PART.

  (11) then take the pliers to tapered spout and remove the 2 silver tension springs located behind the printer cartridges. Pay attention to where they were attached so you remember where they go during the Assembly. take a picture with your phone if you have to, or simply re - understand it like I did. mix 'em on the paper plate.

  (12) then disconnect the 2 large flat wire and 1 small flatwire attached to the back of the ink cart. take a picture or can remember like I did. I guess bad things can happen if you reverse the on re-Assembly. Pick up the phone and take a picture of quik to be sure.

  (13) now remove the cart ink, cartridges and all, by lifting the front first.  Be careful of the transparent tape little there that moves the carriage from left to right and vice versa. you don't want to damage this little guy. now take the transport to your paper plate. not some ink or accidentally get it on your fingers without knowing or will make a mess.

  (14) remove the ink cartridges and put them on the paper plate, side ink to avoid a mess, these things sometimes drip. put the plate side. its time to clean the print heads.

  (15) then go to the sink, to the distribution of empty ink and turn on the hot water and then let the transport of empty ink sitting there with the water mainly through the clogged color screen (inspect and make you is not a small rubber seal surrounding the small screen, if there is do not waste it. I didn't look too closely and I don't think that hp has them but I have a few other printers). It will stain the sink but water ink he comes out to be sure. notice there is also a small circuit attached to it. don't bang it upward but getting wet does not matter.

  (16) continue to do this until the water is clear.

  (17) then use your finger and rub the screen gently with your finger and then rinse it, taking ink until the water is clear. This continues until there is no more ink and screens are clean. do it for all the colors just for good measures. the color of problem that would not print, you'll notice takes longer to clean than the other colors.

  (18) now look on the lower side of the transport. these strange looking things are the leaders. Rinse in hot water and dry them with paper towels. then flip it over and the breath on the side of the screen again. also between the screenside and heads (on the side of the transport) is an opening which is also probably gunked up. It blows with water too. Then, turn it over and wipe the head again. Repeat this step until no fades or until you are sick and tired.

  (19) shake, then use paper towels to dry the entire unit. Make sure that the device is dry.  especially inside the female plugs. blow inside or out dry hair and dry gently. do not stand there and melt the but with the blow dryer. but the sooner it dries less your ink cartridges, sitting on the paper plate will dry out. the custom of the ink dry quickly just do not take a NAP or go on a date until you're back with part of the ink.

  (20) now you have finished cleaning the heads and probably don't need to do it again for the length of time, it was because you bought the printer. and just as a roadtrip you used a map to navigate, you will use these instructions in reverse for reassembly. but keep in mind when re - insert the 3 flatwires that you disconnected from the back of the ink cart, make sure you that have small metal contact on the flatwires points (side male) inserted so they affect small metal contact points on the caps of transport (feminine) side. ALSO BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE BLACK FLATWIRE CONNECTING THE SCANNER PART PART HAND PRINTER. THERE IS A SMALL GROOVE IN THE PLASTIC WHERE IT CAN SIT TO GUARANTEE NO CRIMPAGE. USE IT. also make sure that the 2 hinges to the scanner portion/cover are placed correctly before the fixing of the top with the 6 black screws.

  now raise the printer and reinstall the ink cartridges. then plug in the appliance and turn it on.  If you get notifications on the control panel telling the custom of transport move, then open the trunk and remove the ink cartridges, hustles and ensure that transport is installed and that the tensioner springs are in place correctly. Repeat the operation if necessary until notifications go away or just do a test print and do not take into account the notification if you messed with it a few times already. That's what happened to me and the notification went his own. Once its online, open the hp utility and press the button "clean the heads. do 2 x in a row and you will be in style, with colors extremely rich and "BOLD" and Yes, printed black raven.

  p. s.

  You can always take your aggression out with tree limb loppers or Tin shears like I did and cut the plastic Center keeps you to transport directly outside. Completely eliminates the disassembly and reassembly. Make sure you DO NOT CUT THE TRANSPARENT TAPE THAT MOVES BACK AND FORTH TRANSPORT. This way the next time it happens it takes you only 10 minutes before you are upward and printing.

  Enjoy!  -Porf

• No printing black ink for OfficeJet 6500 a Plus.

  My Officejet 6500 did this once before and everything started to work properly.  Now print all colors except black. I replaced the cartridge HP 920XL but does not always print. Printer indicates that the cartridge is not empty. Checked the troubleshooting but no problem with the cartridge or seats.  Through printer head cleaning. Tried to align the print heads, but failed. Does this mean I need to replace the print head?

• DeskJet 1050A: HP Deskjet 1050 has won't print black

  I've tried everything I can think of, but it still refuses to print in black.

  I have the official HP (301 XL) ink cartridges that are only a few months, purchased in August 2015 and used only once or twice since their.  Still almost full.

  I tried to clean the heads via the HP Support Assistant at least 5 times.

  I tried to let the printer 'stand' as suggested FAQ, but a week later he managed only a few words scratched before giving up completely new.

  I tried to remove and reinstall the cartridges as shown on http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Inkjet-Printing/Deskjet-1050-J410-will-not-print-black-ink/td-p/4397932 , but that has no effect.

  My color cartridges are still working fine but its always black that falls down.  I had this problem last year too, but assumed it was due to the old ink and bought the new cartridge but its happening already after 5 months.

  Any other suggestiongs?

  Thanks in advance for any advice.

  In the paper here troubleshooting steps can help solve the black does not print on your printer Deskjet 1050 a.

  It soulds like you have done most of them already.  It is possible that the capping system (which protects the print head while this isn't printing) does not work, which allows the print cartridge to dry.  In this case, it can help soak printing cartrdige in hot water.  Take a cup of coffee and put about 1 "of hot (but not boiling) water in it.  Drop the black cartrdige nozzles in the water and let stand for 10 minutes.  After letting it soak the printhead remove and pat dry gently the electrical contacts with a wipe free of fluff dry.  A clean coffee filter works well for this.
