• Printer HP Photosmart will not print black

  Printer does not print black.  New cartridge, vent open, rebooted, powered turn off/on. etc.  Will be no copy/print or computer/print.  Commercial ran.  Will only print colours - not black.  Need advice.

  Hi robin

  I hope that we can get you back to print.

  You have a c310 PS, right? Have you tried the usual things like

  -check ink levels

  -running a clean print head

  -verification of the cartridge is properly ventilated

  If so, then soaking the printhead suggested by Bob Headrick might work. Otherwise, you could buy a new printhead at shop part of HP (because I assume that your printer is now out of warranty?)

  The part No. you will need to pick up at the store is CN642A. The link is below ("buy a new online')

• Photosmart C6380 not printing black plus text

  I use this printer for years. I used it with Windows XP, 7 and 8 now. Printing was perfect during all this time. Now today all of a sudden without modification in the BONES, programs, settings or anything else, it stopped printing black text.

  I replaced the cart of black text and was re - align, clean and diagnostic print test page. Re-align has failed on the first attempt. Attempt of Secone he succeeded. Diag page prints well except that it is a little faded in appearance. Test page prints one line of somewhat large black text. But this line is cut in the middle with only half superior letters and the lower half is cut. It does not print anything else that chopped off line on the test page.

  No idea what is happening and what I can do about it?

  Thank you

  Hey,.

  It seems that your printer has a bit of ink clogging some ports.  I recommend the option for your printer running print head cleaning.

  Run the automatic utility to clean the print head

• 6510 Photosmart will not print black

  6510 won't print black. I followed all the steps shown to others by the Lady HP representative on the help forum, but nothing helped. Before finding the forum, I thought that haveway just went black cartridge empty through a print page 7 of a document (even if it happened FAST--in 1/3 of a page), so I installed a new cartridge. No change, so at that point I found on the forum. I checked and my warranty expired a year ago. I'm in the United States. What I can do, I need this printer? THX

  On 6 January, I received a message from an employee of HP saying me that I would be but still no e-mail on their part What's up, I need my printer

  UPDATE: was contacted by an associate of HP and were very pleased with the solution provided by HP. always liked this printer and I have owned many other brands I was indifferent or not happy with. Happy that this has been resolved, thanks Yvonne and HP for your attention. Walt

  Hello

  Perhaps took a little luck, but follow the advice given to another (with a different printer) regarding printhead release in removing all the cartridges and submerging print heads in hot water for five minutes, then dry carefully.

  did this and it now works perfectly.

• Photosmart 5524: Support for 5524 Photosmart will not print black

  Can not get the HP support pages - all links come with a blank page - so hope someone can help.

  Changed my cartridges as the weak and printing is poor, and now black ink does not print despite showing in high and genuine HP cartridges ink levels. Followed all the steps of cleaning, alignment and clean manually screenshot. Off, pulled the plug out, waited 5 minutes. Still no black printing.  Checked for updates software and driver - no required.

  Any help gratefully received.

  Thank you for your response. I now gave up the HP printer altogether, because I found that it was still under an extended warranty that I got when I bought it - not something I usually do, but he paid this time. So now have a cannon, and must see if it will be better. Very grateful that you took the time to try to help.

• Photosmart 6520: 6520 Photosmart will not print black

  Printer has started to have black letters to fade so I replaced the black cartridge.  Now the black does not print.

  Read the care instructions and used a PIN to clean the holes in the cartridge.  Does not resolve the issue.

  Then clean the print head.  Does not resolve the issue.

  I tried a 2nd black cartridge and that did not help.  All repeated the same steps of education support the vent and the cleaning of the print head.  Does not resolve the issue.

  All other colors work very well.

  What now?

  You will need to contact HP as described in the post here.  They should be able to help solve the problem, even if your printer is no longer under warranty.

• Photosmart will not print black on CD/DVD

  Hello

  I have a HP Photosmart5280 all-in-one (Windows 7 work) that I've liked for a couple of years. I recently replaced the black cartridge (with the HP brand ink) and it has been working well. Today, I tried to print on a CD (which I did successfully in the past) with a black and white design (no color). I tried about four times with three different (HP Photosmart Essential, Preview and Roxio) programs, and every time she acts like it is printing, but the disc comes out blank. I printed on paper just to ensure that the black ink was still working, and it came out fine. Help! I do not understand why it is just printing on paper and not on the disk, especially because it is printed on the disc before without problem.

  (May be worth noting that I have aligned the cartridges in my first installation of the new black cartridge, but the printer didn't like alignment.) I did the alignment with the same results. However, my impression looks good, and I was ignoring his request for another alignment because I don't want to use ink. Also, it's almost more color ink, but that shouldn't be a problem because I'm only black printing.)

  Thank you very much!

  The fixed. In a last-ditch attempt, I removed the cartridge empty color out of the printer and told to print the disc again. It is printed. Still not sure why it worked, but he did, and I'm happy.

• HP Photosmart Premium C309g do not print black ink

  Hello

  My HP Photosmart Premium C309g (CD055A) will not print black ink even if the cartridge is full. He's going through the motions of printing but the pages come out blank. It prints colors, they are not as dark as before, so I know that black is not working. I have cleaned the print heads, turned off the printer, unplug the printer, restarted the computer, but nothing works. I get colors on the report of the print quality, but the printer status report comes out blank. I bought a new black ink cartridge (564XL) think the previous one was defective (levels showed a 75% ink) but I still have the same problem. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you.

  Hey,.

  I see you have done some troubleshooting on the issue of the print quality that you are experiencing.  I would make sure you did all the troubleshooting steps available for your research problem in the document following the link.

  Print colors are the colors should not when the C309 Photosmart Premium printing.

  If you have completed all these steps, then I check the status of your printer warranty.  If it is out of warranty, you should consider the solution provided by Bob_Headrick in the thread found here.

  Hope this helps,

• Photosmart 6520: HP Photosmart 6520 will not print black

  This seems to be a common problem for these printers.  Rank of ink so I bought new cartridges and everything prints fine except for blacks.  Diagnosis of print quality page show an empty bar for black.  The cartridges are brand new inks authentic HP.  Thought maybe I had a bad so I bought another black cartridge and same problem.  Have done some research and I saw that a few people had succeeded by soaking the cartridges in the hot water.  Tried it with hot water from the tap for 15 minutes and it will always print in black.  I cleaned the print head 5 times but still nothing.  Warranty expired on 24-03-14.  So 9 months warranty and I have an anchor instead of a printer.  Help please.

  Hello people,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I see that you are facing some print quality problems on your HP Photosmart 6520, you cannot print in black ink.

  I wish you continue troubleshooting here: printer does not print black ink or color of ink or prints blank Pages, I understand, you may have made some of these steps already but I need you to complete all the steps in order to solve the problem of the missing black, you encounter.

  Please note: there are three stages of print head cleaning. Three steps if necessary. If the print head is badly clogged, it may require another round of cleaning. If so, wait 30 minutes after the last step of cleaning (third) to start the first stage of the cleanup process.

  If you are unable to print in black ink, I think that the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge. I highly recommend call you our technical support at the 800-474-6836, I'm sure they will be able to help you regardless of the status of the guarantee.

• HP Photosmart 5520 - will not print black ink

  Photosmart HP 5520 - black ink does not print even with the new cartiage and I did the printhead, cleaning tools and still does not work.    My warranty expires and don't know what to do next.

  Hello heartieluvcatsand welcome to the Forums of HP.

  I understand that you have problems with your black print the result.  I recommend you to perform a power reset. Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

  After the reset, I would say using this document on fixing of the streaks of ink faded prints and other common Print quality problems

  I also suggest the steps described in this document printer does not print black ink or color ink or prints blank Pages.

  Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

• Photosmart 6520e: 6520e not printing black

  Suddenly, printer will not print black.

  Replaced the black cartridge twice and all the cartridges with genuine HP cartridges color.

  Power levels are reported as good. The shows blocks of good CMY color print quality Diagnostics page. but just a white block (empty) for blacks. Printer snap lines are extremely low.

  Have cleaned the printheads twice.

  A printing system rest in Printers & Scanners preferences.

  Thanks for any advice.

  You will need to use rubber gloves if you try the following.
  Turn off the power to the printer.
  There is a small filter to sieve under the black cartridge.

  DAB gently with a q-tip soaked in hot water.
  It may take a few tries to get unplugged sieve filter.
  Do a 'clean' between attempts.

• PhotoSmart HP 6520: HP PhotoSmart 6520 Series does not print black

  My HP 6520 is no longer under warranty - just for a little more than a year.  Not printing black - just replaced all the cartridges and black is not printing.  I used the print head cleaning function so many times that I used half of all cartridges including the black who don't print very disappointed in my decision to buy a HP printer!  Is that what I can do in addition to buying a new printer?  I woud guess something wrong with printhead - can it be removed and cleaned?  Help, please!

  Thank you

  Hi Mike,

  May not be clear enough.

  They should support with you because your cartridges are brand new.

  Although they were not available at all firstly I would ask you to contact them again.

  What country do you call?

  Yet once if the printer is a little more than a year, you should not pay for support, but they should be able to help.

  Please try to call their new and persist in your question, and that they can provide support on the cartridges.
