Photosmart 6520 does not print the new black ink cartridge

My new black ink no longer works on the printer.  This seems to be a problem throughout all of the printers HP no matter what model.  Did someone with similar problems had success getting their black to print despite all recommendations of manufacturing without success?  I have my printer just over a year.  I think it's ridiculous that a product falls down that quickly for money which is devoted to this topic.  I called HP for technical support and after doing all the things, he recommended that he told me that my printer is broken... is no longer under warranty... but he will sell me gladly one handed to nine for more than the cost I would pay if I bought it new from Amazon.  I trust is no longer the product... Why would I want one handed to nine?  Just looking for more tips out there who may have worked for others, before going out and buying an Epson.

Had same problem, went out and bought new cartridges ink and all but worked black, what to do, throw it in the trash? or have a go at fixing, because I had just spent more than $90 on new cartridges, I thought I'd be there is attachment.

To cut a long story short, that I managed to detach, scratching the dining room in the process, wife not impressed! puledl the ink outside, white liquor dispenser put spray gave him a good squirt, put back together, it now works like a new! Yay! Geez I'm so smart.

  • Photosmart 6520: Photosmart 6520 does not print the new colors yellow, magenta and cyan

    I installed new cartridges 364 original color and now the printer prints everything in black and white only.

    Before replacing the cartridges I printed black and white stuff (because the cartridges were low).

    I have installed new drivers, it off for a minute, restarted.
    I cleaned up and align the cartridges.

    White are not dry, as I tested al with tissue.

    All of this happened less than a month after the expiration of the warranty.

    In properties, grayscale printing is turned off.

    What could be the problem?

    Well - he started working by itself after some 5 to 6 hours. All tests and diagnoses before that said nothing wrong, but the colors were simply not print at all. Then, as this, the print quality diagnostics showed color.

    In http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03318187 step 2 tips you allow auto maintenance to complete. I suggest now just let it meditate and heal itself and do not even try the other troubleshooting steps discount. However, the few hours suggested could be more than a little. I've almost exhausted my black cartridge when running all the other tests and diagnostics, and now I'm waiting for a new... Once I get it, I'll put it in, and then let the sit of the printer for 4 to 6 hours just to settle. I hope that's enough. And then, finally, I might be able to print my document.

    Would be nice, if this problem was mentioned in the cartridge installation instructions.

  • Photosmart 6520 does not print text in black.

    Photosmat 6520 will not print in black.  Cleaned up the wind of the cartridge and ran maintenance twice.  Test page, all the colors OK and text was correctly printed in black.  However, in attempts to print the text later, printer would not print in black.

    Almost enough money has been spent for the ink to try to correct the problem, as well as the cost of travel for the purchase of new cartridges, to pay for a new printer.  Therefore, I decided to remove the printer.  I was never as happy with it anyway.  I din't print a lot, but when I print, more ink is used in the maintenance process for the printed book.  Once again, you guys have been great, and I really appreciate your efforts to help me with the problem.

  • HP Photosmart Premium Fax all-in-One Printer-C309a-new black ink cartridge will not print

    I just installed a new black cartridge (made by HP) what print quality became poor in the middle of a job.  He completed the job just fine, but when I tried to print later, the parts of the document that are in color/black and white will be printed.  Black is simply absent from the document.  the level of supply shows as thin and all the diagnostics indicate that there is no probem.  I have not received the error messages.  I tried to turn the printer power switch.  I tried to clean the print heads.  I tried to uninstall & reinstall the cartridge.  I do not have the black cartridges extra to try to see if that does not solve the problem, but as stated above, it worked at first.  I have just printed on ordinary regular white printer paper.  I tried all the relevant measures in the troubleshooting document of poor mailed print quality HP elsewhere on this page.  nothing worked!  another post mentioned someone resetting the printer, but did not say how it was done.  any ideas on a solution? Thank you!

    To reset the printer, follow these steps:

    While the unit is turned on, remove the power cord at the back of the printer. Wait at least 30 seconds, then plug the power cord to the back of the printer, then turn on the device. That will complement a power reset.

    Now, lack of black printing can be the result of a number of things. If it's only missing say when printing from Word, then print settings in Word are set to grayscale only (or something similar) which would exclude the black cartridge. If all programs, so it's either the main print in grayscale settings only the value or the cartridge/print head is blocked to the top/Sales. If this isn't the print settings, then create a report of print quality and follow the steps described in this document:

  • HP Photosmart C6380 does not print the entire page

    My HP Photosmart C6380 will not print whole pages.  Some lines close to the end of the page are not printed.  From time to time, it prints the whole page.

    Hi mercierm,

    Welcome to the HP forums!

    I see that you are working with a Photosmart C6380 and sometimes it seems not to print the whole page and other times he does it. I'd love to help you find a solution to this problem

    To start, you are able to print an extended self-assessment report and it came out completely, or if you make a copy of a complete page, never there issues? This will contribute essentially to determine if it is the hardware or software, but since it seems to be sporadic we are not able to limit too much more. You can also try the steps of cleaning in this document "on paper" Error Message and the printer is not Pick Up or paper feed .

    Let me know how it goes for you!

  • Photosmart 6520 does not print after upgrading the firmware on the router.

    I have problems with my router and a remote technician for Verizon FIOS updated firmware, solve my problem of the internet, but now my printer is not working.  When I try to print from my macbook pro (OSX Lion 10.7.5) it is said that the printer is idle.  When I try to print from my ipod and the iphone, it is said that it prints, but then nothing happens.

    I was able to set up direct wireless to print, but I don't want to go into the settings and change networks whenever I need to print.

    I tried to turn off the router unplug the printer and turn it back on.

    I checked to make sure that the WEP code and network name are correct.

    What can I do else?

    I appreciate really all the efforts that you and other posters are on this issue, but I feel that I will not find a solution.  Maybe a new router?

    It is a long shot. But since we are short of ideas, please try to change the configuration of the router from WEP to WPA2 and try again to establish the connection. Because WEP is very old standard, some routers may have a few inherited defects that were never resolved.

    Well... This opens a huge can of worms, it leads eventually to a solution.  I changed the security settings and when I presented to them, 'wait while we apply the settings' screen appeared and never went away.  The timer kept spinning and this went on for over an hour.  Neither the old or new passwords worked and I completely lost my internet connection.  I called Verizon and ordered a new router and said the technician on the line of my being stuck in limbo. After a few basic tests (unplug and pluggng again) she transferred me to someone in the advanced group.  To make a long story short, he traced the fault not the router, but the optical network outside my home box.  It reset, reset the router (losing the new security settings and everything else) but my internet is back, and fortunately, so is my printer.  I'll live with that until the arrival of my new router state-of-the-art.

    Thanks for the suggestion, it was a frustrating experience, it finally lead me to a printer to work! I doubt that I would come to this point another way.

  • Photosmart 6520 does not print wireless

    Hello
    Previously, the printer was very good in all aspects, including wireless printing. But now it will not print from an iPad iOS 8 or a computer laptop windows 8. It printed before the iPad even on. Same iOS software 8 - so I can confirm it wasn't the iOS update 8 that caused the problem. The same goes for the laptop - it long before print with it on the same operating system. On the iPad, it is not saved as an AirPrint printer and the laptop, he says he is "offline." I think the problem is, therefore, with the printer - if she says it is online and connected to our home WiFi (same as the iPad and the laptop is connected to) or iPad, or laptop can connect or register that it's there.
    You can only print wirelessly with the printer (without option of thread) so I had to do the tedious job of printing with Direct wireless. When I do this it's fine, but it takes a while and I could instead just print over WiFi at home.
    Any suggestions? I have already disconnected the printer and WiFi and then reconnected (set the password to new etc).
    Very grateful for any help. -Louisa

    Hello LouisaD,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that recently you have not been able to print to the Photosmart 6520 an iPad or computer in Windows 8, but you can connect to wireless Direct the printer and print. I also agree that a problem is not present on the iPad or computer, but since it can print with direct wireless connection, I do not have a problem with the printer either.

    I linked these two documents: "Printer is off-line" Message appears on the computer and the printer will not print: Windows 8 & Printing Over a Wireless Network with AirPrint FAQ Apple (what happens if you see a "No AirPrint Printers Found" message on my device Apple?), because they deal with the basics and help determine if the network is originally a block.

    Let me know the results in detail the best possible, and we will discuss later in this if the problem is not resolved.

    See you soon,.

  • Photosmart HP 6520: HP Photosmart 6520 does not print

    Hoping someone can help me - my printer stopped printing random recently. I checked and the ink cartridges are fully and correctly installed, there is paper in the tray and it is connected to the network. I printed a test report, so I know he can print something.

    The problem is when I print a document, it is said that it has printed, but nothing has changed. It is not a network problem, my laptop, including the printer. I'm really at a loss on what is the question.

    Thank you!

    The troubleshooting in the here document steps can help solve your Photosmart 6520 cartridge errors.  Try the procedures in two to four solutions.

    If you cannot get the cartridges to work I would suggest that you contact the vendor for a replacement or a refund.  The quality of third-party cartridges varies considerably, but is generally low. , See the study here for more information.

  • Photosmart 6520 does not print

    I have a Photosmart 6520 printer that gives me an error message when I try to print something from online my HP chromebook. This problem started a few weeks ago, before that time, I was able to print. The error message I get on google cloud print Web site is: "error in the external employment service". I was just on the phone with HP tech support and they could not solve the problem. Anyone here know how to fix it?

    Hello bassplayinlady,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that when you try to print via Google Cloud Print to the Photosmart 6520, you get an error "error in the external employment service". When you talked with HP Technical Support, troubleshooting steps did make?

    Are you able to print from the printer by any means, a copy, post, etc.? To print a self-test; Press Setup (wrench to the right of the screen of the printer) > tools > Printer Status Report.

    Try printing via ePrint and let me know if it works as well.

  • Camera HP photosmart C4480 printer does not print properly after changing ink cartridges

    My printer ran low on ink... I replaced both cartridges, after which I was instructed to print an alignment sheet. It does not write legibly. I tried to reproduce this sheet several times with no improvement in quality, therefore it does not meet an alignment check. How can I improve the quality of printing? On my old printer, I used to be able to "clean head", but it does seem to be this option on this printer, or is it?
