Photosmart 5510 has suddenly stopped printing black

I have a Photosmart 5510 new, which was working fine, then suddenly stopped printing black.  Replace the cartridge and still nothing.  Prints fine colour, but not black.  No error message, just jumps print anything in black.  Excluded bone by the attempt at analysis and still nothing.

Yay! I'm happy now. I did the thing to chat online with technical support and that's what I got: on the front screen of the printer, press the arrow to the right, and you should see an icon "Setup." Press on that. Then press tools, then scroll down to "Clean print head." Press the key. When it's done it spits out a test page and voila! It now prints. I hope that this works for some of you all!

  • 6500 has suddenly stopped printing black - half full cartridge - even with 2 computers

    HP Office Jet 6500An running under Apple's OSX was OK, the next day asked to print (black only) and print completely white sheet.  Ink cartridge shows more than half full and seems OK. prints other colors without problems.  Situation is the same when you use another computer OSX. Have removed and replaced the same cartridge and have disconnected and reconnected the power.  Out of warranty (I think) and not worth hassle of maintenance.   Ideas - or replace?

  • HP Photosmart 5510e printer has suddenly stopped printing correctly

    Original title: fault printer

    Hello

    I have a HP Photosmart 5510e printer that has suddenly stopped printing correctly because the black ink is not getting through.  I did everything possible troubleshooting I can and replaced all the cartridges for new ones, but nothing helped.  When I did a report print quality he had no black ink on it at all. This leads me to think that there may be a blockage between the cartridge and print head. Any ideas?

    You might want to try this: failure of black ink Photosmart 5510 e-All in one series

    Using cartridges HP no also could cause this kind of problem.  Otherwise, it is usually a sign that the printhead is kaput, impossible to replace this printer print head if the printer is also kaput, on the garbage heap, it will!  That's how it is with printers, you can either pay in advance for a printer expensive hard and has lower cost of Ink/toner replacement or you can buy a cheap and pay through the nose for ink replacement and in a year or two to mix the printer all out with the trash.

  • HP Photosmart Premium C309g suddenly stops printing wireless

    I recently bought this printer. I've set up to print wireless. I installed and uninstalled twice b/c after about three times wireless printing, it stops wireless printing. Here is the order of events.

    (1) install the software according to the instructions

    (2) test page wireless printing, that always works

    (3) other printing things the same day wireless (works fine)

    (4) try to print something wireless as 2-3 days later

    (5) it does not. Get message of the staing HP Solution Center which is obvious: Document cannot print (duh). Through troubleshooting (Windows help). It tells me to make sure that it is the default printer (it is) and then check if it is online. It is usually not. So I choose to do the printer online (which is a sub-question, and I'm sure is related to the problem, why it keeps automatically be disconnected?)

    (6) attempt to print

    (7) message appears saying that HP Photosmart C309g-m offline (Solution Center)

    (8) read troubleshooting tips (HP Solution Center), which tells me to connect via USB to print (which annoys me because there is no available solution that tells you how to restore a wireless communication between the router/computer/printer)

    (9) which I did the first time around, but find that when I connect using the USB, it prints well. Any attempt to return to wireless printing is reflected in steps 7 and 8

    (10) check the connection of the application printer wireless network printing. Indicates that the printer is properly connected wireless. I know that my laptop is on the same network b/c that's the only one I have and my internet connection is not interrupted somehow.

    (11) get frustrated, uninstall and reinstall the printer

    Repeat step 2.

    This has happened twice already, and I bought it so that I COULD print wireless. He must be troublemaker solution Quen uninstall then reinstall the printer each time that happens (up to once a week).

    I have a laptop computer, a printer and a wireless router.

    Issues related to the:

    (1) how to prevent printing to offline on my laptop

    (2) how to restore communiucation between the printer and the laptop computer on the wireless network?

    (3) how do I keep the communication between the computer laptop and printer (and I assume that the router) to go Bye Bye?

    About what you suggest, the IP address remained the same throughout the facilities and absorption.

    However, I have thought of it. I guess that the wireless connection on the printer. I went back to the office and looked at my network settings. I needed to "find" my wireless signal. The first time that I've refreshed my wireless name does not show upward. I refreshed again and POOF! He was there! So I chose and put in my password (I think that his WPA encryption). When he finished the wireless network connection, it is printed on a network status page. Given that I printed this page so many times already I happened to have an old on my desk. I noticed that the IP address is the same (although today, I uninstalled and reinstalled again) on both forms. Anyway, when I returned to my computer (which is in my living room) HP Help Center had a giant green check mark on it and said that the printer is connected. Then I printed something and it worked! YAY! It would be great if HP put in information on the way to reconnect wireless when you get this message "the printer is not connected. Who knows maybe I needed to evacuate to understand! Laughing out loud

    So for everyone out there, if this happens to you:

    1) go to your printer

    (2) select the arrow to see the next menu. (it should be on the right side of the LCD screen, it looks like a triangle on the side)

    (3) select Setup--> network--> network wireless assistant

    (4) the printer will start to search for wireless networks

    (5) choose your network (or the network you are using...  It should be the same as your computer/laptop is on)

    (6) if it is password protected, enter the password/password

    (7) your printer will print a network status page.

    (8) your computer should "recognize" the printer on the network itself. Your HP help window can display a large green check mark (it's a good thing!)

    (9) print what you want!

    * Note I guess that you may need to do this each time the printer goes into sleep mode. Its not that boring!

    Hello AnnieRooney65,

    I want to offer a helping hand with the printing problem, that you have with the 5530 LIKE. You are unable to print, by means of printing, or you cannot print from the computer too? You have errors or blinking lights on the printer? Running the HP print and Scan Doctor can help us to determine what is happening, whether it's a hardware problem, driver problem.

    Start printing and scanning Dr. choose USB connection or wireless (based on the current connection) and allow to know the results.

  • My HP Office Jet 6700 Premium has suddenly stopped printing from my iPad

    I have a new HP Office Jet 6700 Premium

    It worked very well, wireless printing from my iPad.

    iPad displays a window that recognizes the printer, but it does not print.

    There is no error message.

    The steps below a usually resolve the problem you are experiencing:

    1. turn off the printer.

    2. completely turn off iOS devices (hold sleep and home buttons simultaneously until a message appears prompting you to "Slide to power off". Drag on this bar, and it should completely turned off).

    3. turn the printer on.

    4. switch on the devices iOS back.

    5 try printing again.

    These steps usually fix the problem. If they don't, try these additional steps:

    6. power cycle your router (usually done by unplugging the power cord from the router, wait 20 seconds and in him plugging back in).

    7. ensure that iOS devices and the printer are connected to the same network, and then try to print.

  • Photosmart C309 abruptly stopped, printing black ink (any solution?)

    My HP Photosmart Premium C309 suddenly stopped printing black.

    Everyone recognizes this problem and has a solution?

    I tried to unplug the power plug, power switch, cleaning of the printheads several times (manually), cartridge to give a little air, checked the connections, replacement of cartridge again. Nothing helps.

    Browse the internet: it seems that this problem occurs with the most HP printers.

    See for example: some forum someone temporarily solves the problem by performing cleaning operations for (more than) 7 times, which cost five new cartridges to replace, and after a month or if the problem recurs.

    I wouldn't do this because I don't want to empty an another XL cartridge and then discover the problem recurs.

    The printer (bought in April 2010) is connected through the USB port on a Mac Pro 8Core with OS - X 10.6 (I always use only paper HP and HP original cartridges)

    Thanks for your help in advance.

    Y.S.,

    This "Absolutely" worked for my c309! He started printing gray yesterday, then I finally got the blank pages. My first thought was that HP has screwed me again! lol but I tried the post above... I have unplugged the printer for more than 25 seconds, held down the 3 and # buttons simultaneously for another 25 dry more plugged in printer and now the buttons down then made for another 25 sec.  Had to reset the lang. and the country, but after a few minutes he printed a perfect test page and I was able to print all my docs now!  It was a solution easy vs on the removal of the water and heads/cartridge, etc.  I would try this first and if it doesn't work, then you can try other patches. Thank you!!!  Good luck!

  • OfficeJet 6500 wireless has stopped printing black

    Printer stopped printing black.

    Installed new ink cartridge

    cleaned print heads

    aligned printheads

    switch machine

    CYA colors fine print

    the printer is out of warranty - about 1 1/2 years.

    Windows 7 64 bit

    almost ready to Chuck it by the window

    Thanks for the info.

    I tried the thing to wash and dry a couple of times.

    He has not worked for me.

    I had already ordered a new Printhead and installed yesterday.  But it didn't work after aligning the print head process either.

    I have tried resetting by unplugging the printer and hold the # and 3 buttons on the keyboard.  He rolled and then he started printing in black ink.  Yay!

    I don't know if the old print head would have worked if I had tried the # and 3 button Reset the process, but I'll keep the old one just in case where (after I wash again).

    Just happy to have a machine working again.  Testing time to go buy more ink after you run most of the color cartridges down with reset and alignment.

    When I print QUALITY REPORT printing any black ink level is shown, but black media are there. very strange.

  • Re: Deskjet 3070 printer stop printing black ink

    Same thing happened to me. Black print cartridge has just stopped printing all of a sudden. I changed it a couple times but without success. Tried the workarond provided by someone else in this thread (type of glossy paper, normal quality) and that seems to work so far.

    Could someone HP help? My printer is out of warranty and 1.5 old now.

    Thank you

    Hi Sunshyn2005,

    Finally, Spanish support contacted me and solved the problem.

    A big thank you to HP support service. It was really effective.

  • HP 5510 will be not printed black before and after you installed the new cartridge. the specified controls did.

    Photosmart HP 5510 will be not printed black before and after you installed the new cartridge.  The specified controls did.

    Yes, I was referring to manually clean the print head. I see that the 5510 lacks the possibility of leaving the print head manually.

    You can click on the menu of your SETUP program on your screen and go to TOOLS and clean the print head from there.

    If this does not resolve your problem, you may need to replace the print head.
    Contact HP Total Care (1800-474-6836), and if your unit is under warranty, its free.

    Let me know if this can help, thank you.

  • Windows 8 - officejet 6000 - just stopped printing black-

    Windows 8 - officejet 6000 - just stopped printing black-

    put a new black cartridge in and now it will not print black - going to test the page and color printing - can hardly see black text on the test page - gray value - has always been - no other changes have had recourse to the same printer for a little over a year.  Only clean the print heads still no black printing.

    Hi rea123,

    I understand that you have an Officejet 6000, which is currently not print black ink. I'm sorry to hear what is happening, but I will do my best to help you.

    I suggest that you first look through this document for Troubleshooting print quality problems because it may be a few steps that you have not yet tried.  This document 'Print head problem' or "Print head seems to be missing or corrupt" Message appears on the computer has also a few steps to know how to clean the print head manually.

    If all else fails, take a look at the Bob_Headrick station for soaking your printhead.

    Hope this helps, have a nice day!
