OfficeJet 6500 black vertical streaks

• OfficeJet 6500 black ink

  I have a HP Officejet 6500 wireless that does not print color only black ink

  Solutions/similar problem?

  Recently did it start?

  Did you recently change a cartridge?

  I also try to take the cartridge from the printer and make sure that the air holes are open.  In addition, make sure that electrical contact is clean on the cartridge and the printer print head.

  There are a document, as well, with steps to help solve a problem of print quality in the Officejet 6500 E709n wireless.  The document can be found here.

  If you get to step on replacing the printhead, then there need determine if the printer is under warranty.  That it is an E709n, I guess that it is out of warranty.  If you are out of warranty, then you still have a few options in this case.

  (1) we can try the workaround provided by Bob_Headrick in the thread found here.

  (2) you can also buy the print head from HP for the E709n parts store.  The part number for the print head is CN643a for the Officejet 6500 E709n wireless.  The print head sells currently for about US $70.

  (3) you can buy a new printer.  This option would be accompanied by a new full factory warranty.

  I hope this helps.

• Black vertical streaks when copying in black

  When copying in W & B, get a heavy vertical black streak on the left side of the page, a lighter in the Center and a very light one on the right side. Colour printing is perfect...  New black cartridge without help.

  What kind of printer you have? I included a troubleshooting document that could help maybe this isn't your exact printer, but the steps are generally the same.

• OfficeJet 6500 has printed a full page of black streaks when copying

  My HP Officejet 6500 a prints a black page ridged when the copy of the glass or ADF. I cleaned the glass and ADF and got the same result. I can print the docs okay, it's just when I try to copy when I have the problem.

  That's the bad news, I didn't want to hear. The warranty expired 3 months ago.  (

• HP Deskjet Pro 8600: Vertical streaks on black background copy only

  My printer has black vertical stripes on copies. Color copies are very good, black print is fine. Streaks be copies of black ink. I changed the ink cartridge, but it did not help.

  Hi @HPCustomer6,

  I'm rb011,

  @Drakster is missing for a few days. I want to continue to help you with the question of the copy.

  I see that you mentioned have the e-all-in-one printer HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus and the vertical black lines only happen when you make black copies. It is almost that the scan bulb could not calibrate correctly.

  To make sure that the scan bulb is calibrated correctly, remove all documents loaded on the scanner glass, and make sure that all covers and doors are closed prior to a reset of the power on the printer.

  

  Let the printer back to its state of rest before opening the lid to put a paper on the glass.

  If this does not help and you have followed the support document vertical stripes, lines or streaks in the Copies, faxes or Scans , there is probably a problem with the bulb scanner and speaking with the Tech Support HP would be the next step to find a solution to this problem.

  What you can do, is to use the following link to create yourself a file number, then call and it can help to expedite the appeal process:

  Step 1. Open the link: www.hp.com/contacthp/

  Step 2. Enter the product number or select Auto detection

  Step 3. Scroll up to "still need help? Fill out the form to select your contact options.

• HP Officejet Pro 8600 more black vertical line when copy or scan

  HP Officejet Pro 8600 more black vertical line when copy or scan everything in the middle of the page

  Hi Clementstl,

  I understand that you have a 8600 Pro Officejet which puts a black vertical line in the center of your copies/scans. I'm sorry to hear you had to deal with this, but I will certainly do my best to help you solve this problem.

  I recommend the rest of this document of vertical stripes, lines or streaks in the Copies, faxes or Scans as it should be in a position to help to cross that line. The most common cause is a small spot of something on the glass of the scanner, so just make sure that when you're cleaning use you as much elbow grease you can collect

  Just to clarify a little further, if the problem only seems to occur when you use the automatic document feeder, you'll want to focus your attention on the small strip of glass that he uses on the left side. If it only occurs when you use the flat glass, you want to concentrate on the large piece of glass he uses.

  Hope this helps, have a nice day!

• HP Officejet 6500 will not print in black

  I noticed that my black ink started streak so I replaced the black cartridge, cleaned the print heads and completed an alignment page.  All colors have shown up on the test, except black pages, and black characters who present themselves were incomplete and striated.  I tried to print in black and white, and the pages shoot out of the empty printer.  I've exhausted all failures on HP and had no luck.  Any ideas on what I can try?

  There are 5 different versions of the Officejet 6500. I went with a basic (E710a) model to provide a quality troubleshooting bad print document. This link will give you some troubleshooting steps to try to solve the problem that it lists some you mentioned it but there are only listed steps that were not included in the above post.

  If still the problem, I'd do a manual cleaning the contacts on the print head and on the cartridges to ensure this build up is not a problem. Pages 117-121 of the user manual to describe the process of print head cleaning. Page 234 in the manual gives instructions to clean the contacts on the cartridges too. I hope this helps

• OfficeJet pro 8600 vertical black lines printing when you use the scanner/copier of SMA

  I have an Officejet Pro 8600 Plus model N911g that I got a year out of warranty. Worked perfectly until this week when I scanned approximately 50 pages through the ADM.  During the process of digitisation of the black vertical lines began to appear on documents that are scanned or print (color or BW) through the ADM.  Scanning or printing directly from the scanner glass is not the problem.

  I checked, cleaned and cleaned all (rolls, strip scanning, scanning glass) it is possible via the information provide in these forums from other veins knows on their production lines.  No change...

  I unplugged the printer all the network and fax cables and tried scanning or copying with the power of the device, NO CHANGE.  Don't know what the next step might be other than the factory reset (don't have documentation on this process).  Additional suggestions would be appreciated.

• HP Officejet 6500 E709n ink printing - black not printing

  I have a printer HP Officejet 6500 E709n and for some reason the black ink is not printing.  Color cartridges work fine.  I have even changed the black, cleaned cartridge and print head alignment, uninstalled and reinstalled the printer, but nothing solved the problem.  I was wondering if the color management profile has something to do with it.  Help, please!

  Thank you!

  Tell me how to solve this problem.

  See the post here.

• Firefox 3.6.10 allow me to choose a black cartridge only printing one my HP Officejet 6500 (not wireless).

  Selector only black cartridge is not active.

  The problem is your printer:

  Also, I have the OfficeJet 6500 and had the same problem. Black text was printing with a mixture of colored inks rather than black ink, resulting a gray, fuzzy text. I finally found a solution. In each application under Page Setup, there is an option called "Format for". Mine was created for "any printer". I changed that to "Officejet 6500 E709n [830E4A]" and now it prints black very well. I have a Mac running 10.4.11. I hope this helps.

• OfficeJet 6500 will not print black

  Hello

  I have an Officejet 6500 AIO which allows to print any color over black. We have already replaced the black toner cartridge, ran an alignment (which failed), and 1st and 2nd printhead level cleaning, with no improvement made. I searched online HP even sells no more replacement for this model print heads, and those that I could find other suppliers cost half the price of a new printer.

  Anything else I can try before calling, she leaves and replace the whole unit?

  Thank you

  Dave

  If the suggestion of Print_Hint does not resolve the problem, you can try to soak the print head in warm water for a few minutes as described in this post.

• Does everything except officejet 6500 still won't print black not - help!

  Hello

  HP Officejet 6500 E709a, purchased in June 2011, stopped printing in black ink one day last week.  Quickly, I ordered new ink and replace the cartridge.  When he wouldn't even print I started troubleshooting and followed all the steps.  After cleaning the print head, a few letters of a printed page, but no more than that.  This gave me hope so I ordered a new print head, which was installed today.  No improvement, so I replaced the color ink cartridges and reinstalled the black cartridge, which all appear to be properly ventilated.  Still no improvement. only a few shadows black letters.  It is by generating messages "alignment" or "ink system failure".  So now, I replaced all the ink cartridges and the print head.  It prints color but not black.

  Really, I love this printer and have had no problems in the past.  It's only a little over a year and I do not use it too.  I didn't do a new printer and now that I have invested $100 in ink and Geraldine Chief I would like it to work.  Help would be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you

• HP Officejet 6500 a Plus: black ink cartridge does not print

  I have a HP Officejet 6500 a and have an operating system of Windows 10 on a Dell Inspiron 15R.  The printer does not print any black ink. I have genuine HP cartridges and the black cartridge is about 75% full. It was working properly until this morning. I downloaded your troubleshooting and everything seems fine. I ran the program cleaning head several times, but I can't always get black ink on a page. The other colors are fine. After the second head cleaning, I got a very small black image, but head cleaning has resulted in no black ink. I made sure that the wind had been reached on the cartridge and this problem occurs with wireless and hard wired connections. Time before, it happened and when I replaced the cartridge, it worked. After reading some of the messages on the map, it seems not to be the solution. I also hesitate to throw a cartridge that is only 25% used. Can you help me?

  Hello @robertj138,

• OfficeJet 6500 a print is more black

  It seems that I too was victim of the issue of "change the cartridge and cannot print.
  
  I changed the black cartridge, cleaned the heads several times and nothing.
  Print many pages of test - color... Black work does not work.
  
  I confirmed that the cartridge is properly ventilated.  I even checked to see if the filter to print screen

  head was clean (it was).   I don't really want to order a new printhead, if this isn't the issue and I don't want to

  to run out and buy a new printer.

  Worked perfectly to what I lack of ink this morning... help!
