• OfficeJet PRO 8600: Exhausted color cartridges

  I work at home and use the Officejet PRO 8600 to make black copies of documents that I print on my HP laserjet printer or other documents only. In very rare occasions, I'll print of the officejet.

  I put the oficejet to print in black only. However, after a period of time (6 monthe or almost) the printer will specify that the color cartrides are exhausted and I need to order an other muti-pack.

  Why the color cartridges must be used upwards if I do not use color cartridges? In any case to avoid?

  Thank you

  There is little ink used in black and all colors at startup and when printing to prevent clogging of the nozzles.

  The document described here how the ink is used.

  There are a few considerations to minimize the ink used during the interview:

  • Always keep the printer plugged in to an outlet.  If an external switch (e.g. a switch power socket) is used the printer will use more ink start.
  • Do not run cleaning cycles of the façade or the Toolbox of the computer, they are rarely necessary and use in any color and black ink.

• OfficeJet Pro 8600 n911g: ink level 8600 rest from scratch with new 950XL

  My black cartridge in my 8600 printer ran out of ink. I had already replaced all the colors of three cartridges with a 951XL defined, a month or two ago, and the process went smoothly as planned. Today after replacing the black cartridge, adjustment noise seemed short, and the façade is estimated ink level zero rest.

  I tried the following diagnosis:

  -Reinsert the black print cartridge

  -Reinsert all four cartridges

  -market power

  -a second new HP 950XL

  -test page

  -the print head alignment

  -clean the printhead

  -Printing HP and doctor Scan, install and run - prompted me to update software - which did not fix the problem

  Print quality seems good on the test pages. I can only assume that the printer works satisfactorily, but I prefer to resolve this problem and eliminate the uncertainty of my use of the printer. Please suggest how I might solve this problem.

• OfficeJet Pro 8625 black ink cartridge setup snap

  I am trying to install our new printer Officejet Pro 8625 and the black cartridge (950) that came with it does not come off in place. Every time that I push it in it jumps out. I tried to use another cartridge (950) that was in our Officejet Pro 8600 and she also wouldn't install despite editing perfectly in the other printer.

• HP Officejet Pro L7500 cyan ink cartridge does not print

  My Officejet Pro L7500 has been used for several years without any problems printing.  Recently, my documents printed blue display order.  I replaced the cyan cartridge, and made sure all cartridges have plenty of ink.  I ran the printer to clean the heads, align the cartridges, test print, etc..  Blue ink just doesn't appear.  I also removed the cyan cartridge, blew some air in ink consumption and succeeded him.  The printer gives message that there is a problem.  Is there a solution?

  This means that you need a new printhead cyan/black. This youtube show you how to replace the printhead. The print heads are usually sold where get you the cartridges.

• OfficeJet Pro 8500: new ink cartridges does not

  I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500.  It's probably 2 or 3 years.  He says not what 8500, but I think it was
  a diagnosis 'as model A909a.  My level of printing showed that the black ink cartridge must be replaced.  I knew too because what should have been print black was printing a red light faded.  I replaced the black cartridge with a HP product, but it is always print red and get more faded.  Any ideas what could be the problem?  Thank you!

  UPDATE!  Good news!  Somehow I discovered that I needed to update the software. I think it could have been through the option "Scan Doctor".  When I tried to install the software on your computer it wouldn't.  But I went directly to the HP software download site, informed my hardware information and that worked!  I downloaded and installed the updated software and that fixed my problem of black ink cartridge.  I'm so happy and proud of myself!

  I found the solution for me!

• OfficeJet Pro 8500 Wireless - ink cartridges

  I have had this unit for about two years. Use it mainly for scanning, not a lot of printing.

  After about four months, after printing next to nothing with him, I had to replace all four cartridges. Not one, but he had to have all four. All four ran empty cartridges at the same time.

  About eight months later, ditto.

  About eight months later, ditto.

  And now, about eight or nine months later, once again.

  I don't use it enough to empty one of the ink cartridges in this period of time, much less than each of them.

  What is happening on that he needs new ink cartridges so often?

  It is absolutely impossible that all four ink cartridges would go dry at the same time - four times. Is something wrong with the printer?

  Windows XP. The cartridges were all HP.

  Thank you.

  Hi stevewest26,

  If you leave the printer turned on 24/7 the printer will do a printer maintenance to avoid the cartridges get clogged. During the maintenance of the printer it use some of the ink in all 4 cartridges to properly initiate the print heads and keep the printer in good working order for you when you want to print. It is best to let the printer on so that he could complete the period maintence of this way you don't end up throwing the printheads due to jets of a bite. If you are not using this printer to print you may consider a scanjet do your scans. I hope that explains why you see the cartridges being exhausted.

• do I have to buy color ink cartridges? HP Officejet Pro 8600 more Windows XP

  HP Officejet Pro 8600 more

  Windows XP

  The printer will not print anything (including black and white which is my default setting), at least that I have installed a new yellow ink cartridge.  He says that the cartridge is exhausted and must be replaced before printing.    I have black and white printing color cartridges? Is there a solution? Thank you very much.

  DavidDavid salvation,

  Yes, you will need to replace the yellow cartridge to continue printing. Here's a good explanation of the design of the print mechanism, and what is needed to keep them in good working condition. Your printer is user replaceable print head. With this printer's ink lines that need to be filled in ink in this way that the print head should not be clogged jets in turn cause poor print quality problems.

  Written by Bob_Headrick on the wire note: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Other-Printing-Questions/Officejet-8500-won-t-print-Black-ink-only-if-other-colors-are/m-p/1706581#M67899

  HP, as other printer manufacturers, offers you with permanent print heads printers requiring ink for all colors, avoid the print heads.  HP, like some other manufacturers, also offers printers with user replaceable print heads.  These may of may not require ink in all colors in print, even though damage may occur if the print from the cartridge empty.  Finally, HP as some other manufacturers also offers printers with the printhead into the ink supply.  He is replaced at each change of cartridge.  These printers will happily print with a diet low, empty or many deleted completely same models.

  When you buy your next printer (from HP or from another manufacturer) be sure that you understand what is the type of printer and choose one that fits your needs.

• OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus fried by storm - how can I removed the ink cartridges

  A storm on the last week my OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus feeding dish. The printer is irretrievably economic so I ordered a new printer.

  Without power, the transport of ink cartridge is stuck in extreme right position where it is impossible to remove the four ink cartridges relatively new. Ink is not cheap... would like to be able to recover the disabled printer ink cartridges but cannot understand how the cart release.

  Any sugguestions would be appreciated.

  In the end from the deceased by removving Assembly ADF/scanner printer ink cartridges. This provided access from the top to the distribution of ink stuck.  T10 Torx driver required to remove all.

  The new printer will not accept the cartridges retrieved when installing printer... had to use the "setup" cartridges in the box with the new printer.

  After you configure the new printer, however, I've been able to 'Set up' cartridges for almost new XL cartridges that I had recovered from my old printer.

• How do you replace the ink cartridge in my Officejet Pro 8600?

  The mechanism of cartridge is a little different in the Officejet Pro 8600 compared to previous models of HP printers.  The cartridges are spring instead of the snap-in cartridges previous style.

  There is a video, see below, available which shows how to install and replace the cartridges in the 8600.

  HP also provided a document containing pictorial information on how to change these cartridges out.  Click on the link below to access this document.
