• OfficeJet 6100: Black ink printing

  I have a yellow cartridge empty but want to print in black ink only 90% satisfied with my printing needs.

  The manual here says 32-33 pages that the printer will print black if there is enough color ink in the print head, but once the ink has run out completely the cartrdige will need to be replaced.

  HP and other printer manufacturers have technology another printer for different needs.  For ink jet printers:

  • Some have integrated into the ink cartridges print heads.  These printers can print generally with one or more of the colors completely empty, or even with color or black cartridges (but not both) removed. Deskjet 6980 series is an example, or for an all-in-one, check the Deskjet 2540.
  • Other printers have separate replaceable printheads and inks.  An example would be the printer Officejet 6100.  In these printers print head can be replaced if they are damaged by running the printhead with colors off.  Some of these printers allow printing with a color, the other will not.  If the printer is run without ink in one or several colours, the printer may be damaged, but the user may be able to recover without having to send to the printer for the service.
  • Other printers have permanent print heads.  To run only those without little ink in all colours would risk causing damage to the print head because of clogs, air ingested in the printhead or grilled printhead resistances of shooting. The Officejet 6700 is an example of this type of printer. For printers with fixed print heads that could require the service to get the printer to print properly again when the ink is finally replaced.

  The document described here how the ink is used.  While the document is written for inkjet printers HP the same principles apply to the other manufacturers.print but especially black color inkjet printers printer IPH as those in the first category above can be a good choice.

• 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.

• OfficeJet 4500 black ink

  I have an Officejet 4500 G510n-z, all-in-one wireless. yesterday, it was working fine until my daughter tried to print photos. I replaced the black ink cartridge and now I get absolutely no print black at all.  It worked fine when I used it earlier in the day. I tried ALL of the troubleshooting options, and even tried a second cartridge.  Still NOT PRINTING BLACK.  It will not even produce black ink when you make the alignment of cartridges.  Any ideas?  It is more under warranty, purchased in March 2011.  Very saddened by this.

  OK, if valuable lesson learned.  USE ONLY THE HP CARTRIDGES.  2 black cartridges tried to use were from an online retailer of "HP compatible ink cartridges.  Just got back from Walmart with a HP cartridge.problem resolved.

• OfficeJet 3830: Black ink does not dry printhead upward after a few days,

  I had a problem where the black ink cartridge has dried to the level of the holes and would not print. I have it soaked in water / alcohol and got it to work and it printed fine, but 4 days later, it was dried again.

  Soaking in water / alcohol it fixed, well, maybe the problem is where the print run the Park. Are there not a sponge, or something?

  What can I do to fix?

  Thank you

  PS, the color ink prints fine with something of dipping or other necessary. In addition, these are HP ink cartridges. I bought the new printer around February 2016.

  Thank you!

  I suggest trying these steps here: the problems of print quality

  If this seems not help. I recommend you to call phone support directly to see if they can replace the cartridge that is drying out. The HP cartridges should not be dry as fast.

• OfficeJet 6600/6700: Black ink only

  I want to print only in black and not buy color cartridges?  Can I substitute for this system?  My color cartridges are out of ink.

  No, you can't, as necessary to allow the print head to exploit any color.

• HP Officejet 4630: Black ink is printing half of lines

  

  This is an example of how the documents printed on my printer now. I tried to align my cartrigages three times. It seems that my color cartridge works fine, but it's my black which is not. I reinstalled them both twice and nothing has helped. What is going on?

  Type of printer - HP Officejet 430

  type of computer - HP ENVY TouchSmart 360 x

  The question seems to be an electrical connection between the printer and ink cartridge.  Try printing a test page, as shown below.  Is the black stripe large print only 1/4 or 1/2 of the height of the bars of color?  If so clean the printer and cartridge as shown in the document here contacts can help solve the problem.  Although this document was written for a series of different printers the same principle applies.

  If the procedure above does not resolve the problem, I'd say changing the black cartridge.

• OfficeJet 4620: Black ink cartridge not working not

  My printer was out of ink, and I installed the ink cartridges brand new HP-bought a few weeks ago. The type of ink is 564 Xl. The problem is that all of the color ink prints well, but black, we do not print well. When I use 'Best' option printing, the print out comes out like an old carbon copy (light grey and blurry). When I use the 'project' print quality, nothing prints at all. The printer recognizes that there is ink in the cartridge, but something is happening which is obstructing the way ink is printing.

  Welcome @ames211,

• HP Officejet 4620 - black ink will not print.

  I read through the blogs on this and it seems that others have encountered the same problem I'm having.  It is said that my warranty was up in September 2013.  So, I'm not sure where to go from here.  I was hoping someone HP might be able to help me?  I replaced the black cartridge with a genuine HP cartridge and run all the diagnostics.  I really like this printer so, I hope there is a solution to this problem.  Any suggestion would be great.  Thank you!

  Hey, Ciara!  I wanted to just call with you again on this... any other ideas?  I really want to throw this printer, but it is of no use to me now because it will not be printed.  I hope that there is some kind of solution... I really want to buy anothher impression just after more than a year with this one.  Thanks again for your help!

• OfficeJet 6700 and ink cartridges

  About 4 months ago, I installed all the new print cartridges (932 black and 933 magenta, cyan and yellow.)  I put my settings to print in grayscale in black ink only and the quality project.  I did all my impression elsewhere and never used the color.  Yesterday, I received alert printer that my magenta cartridge is empty.  I checked all my cartridges and found that my black was about 25% full, magenta was empty and the yellow and cyan are about 23% full.  Why is the printer using all of the color ink cartridges even though I have never changed the parameters of levels of grey, black ink only?

  Thank you for the information.  However, it is strange that he uses more color ink than black ink during the interview, and I say this because I do all my printing in black ink only, gray levels draft quality.  I'll keep this in mind when the time comes to replace the printer that I have no color.

• 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

• 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!
