Photosmart C510: Photosmart C510, complete except Photo black all inks is low, why I can't print

I've just spent more than $50 for cartridges for my printer, apparently the kit I bought didn't come with black picture, instead, he had 2 black inks, it had 3 color cartridges.

Why is it necessary to have ink in the Photo black cartridge to print?

I should be able to print, I think, everything, except maybe the photos.

Is it possible to disable or ignore the Photo black and the printer does not work?

Hello v05373,

The printer displays an error message on the control panel or from the computer? If Yes, what is the error message?

Thank you!

  • Why I can't print black and white if the yellow cartridge is empty but the black is full?

    I have a Photosmart C7250 all-in-one and Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, why can't I print in black and white if a color cartridge is empty? The black cartridge is full, it is not the only one to be used? Is there a setting somewhere that I can change just print in black? I tried the black and white option through command prompt on my computer but the printer always gives me an error message saying that I need to replace the yellow before I can print.

    The reason that this, your printer is actually not to damage the internal parts.  Mainly the printhead.  It is built in integrated security to help protect your investment.  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 or 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.  I understand that it can be very annoying, but it's a necessary.

  • Photosmart premium 309g will not print Yellow, cyan or photo black

    We have premium photosmart hp 309g.  I replaced the ink cartridges and it still won't print black, cyan or yellow.  I used all the 'tools' on the printer and nothing has helped.  Any ideas?

    What happens if you try to make a copy of a picture of the printer - still no printed colors? If print colors by making a copy, then the problem is on the side of the computer. If this isn't the case, it's a matter of hardware/firmware/printer accessories.

    If you determine that the problem is the printer, see below.

    Since you have replaced the cartridges, you may have a printhead problem; Sales/dirty or defective.

  • HP Photosmart Premium C410a: why my photo ink cartridge drain when I'm not print photos?

    I usually use the grayscale mode to print only text documents and sometimes use the ColorSmart sRGB option for full-color documents. I have a black cartridge installed XL, as well as the three color cartridges and a photo (bowtie) cartridge. Even with that usage model, it seems that my photo cartridge frequently needs replacement. Also, I can't print a text only document in grayscale when the photo cartridge is low - even if the XL cartridge is new. It's not logical for me. Is there a setting I need to change for my printer pulls the XL cartridge instead of the photo?

    Hello

    What is your printer? Grayscale option will use all colors and mix with the black mark that so it uses ink photo (black) more than normal. If you want to use black ink only, you must select black ink only in grayscale options (drop-down in the value of the preferences menu).

    Kind regards.

  • HP Photosmart 7510 won't use photo black ink

    I have a photosmart 7510 printer and I am printing from microsoft word 2010 on a windows 8. I print a word with no pictures in document. Printer preferences are on plain paper with normal quality. I can't the printer to use the XL Black ink cartridge. It only uses photo black ink. Is there a setting that I can choose to let him use the regular black ink?

    Hi shirsar,

    I understand that you have a Photosmart 7510 which seems to use a lot more than regular black ink black photo. I'm sorry to hear that, but think I can help you with a solution.

    You can set the printer to use only black ink when printing from the PC and ensures that it uses black ink and no ink picture. My instructions will be set up in the pilot if he does for all programs (if you just want to program it please let me know, and I advise you more). You'll want to start by going to your start screen, and simply start typing devices and printers, and you want to open that (if that is not in the work Panel type and then proceed to open devices and printers). Once the devices and printers is open, right-click on your Photosmart 7510 icon and select Printing Preferences. You'll want to then click on the Advanced Options button at the bottom right of the screen. The next page that appears will allow you to set the printer to use black ink only when printing from the PC (please follow the screenshot below for any clarification).

    Hope this helps, have a nice day!

  • HP Photosmart 7515: Touch screen went black

    Printer works very well at the outbreak of the computer,

    but the touch screen went black, permanently.

    No matter how much I press, it stays black.

    I disconnected and reconnected.

    Downloaded a new driver that allows me to trigger the scan of the computer,

    but I can't fax.

    Is this a driver problem, a hardware problem...?  Don't know which firmware is.

    Hi @lenny15,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums from the HP Support! I understand the touch screen on your HP Photosmart 7515 is completely black, you are able to print from the computer, but can not access the front control panel.

    I would like that perform you a Hard Reset on the PS 7515:

    1. disconnect all cables and cards of memory in the printer. Unplug the power cord, directly from the back of the printer when the printer is still on.

    2. unplug the other end of the power cord.

    3. If there is a power supply on the power cord, disconnect one end and reconnect it.

    4. at the end of 60 seconds, plug it directly into a wall outlet (not a surge protector or battery backup because they can cause the printer to lose over time basic functionality).

    5. connect the power cord to the back of the printer.

    6. the printer should automatically power back upward. If not, turn it on with the power button.

    7. try to make a photocopy (if your printer is a printer all in one) before you connect the cables from the printer.

    8. connect the other cables needed to the printer.

    If after the hard reset, you are still not able to access the Control Panel, I suggest that call you our technical support at the 800-474-6836.

  • How to install a PHOTO HP 564XL ink cartridge in the printer all-in-one HP Photosmart 6525?

    I have a HP Photosmart 6525 all-in-one printer.  I buy original HP 564XL ink for my printer in a color combo-pack at my local Costco.  The package includes 3 color cartridges as well as a 4th label "Photo".  My printer has only the slots 3 color + a location for a larger black cartridge. I would use the photo cartridge, but my question is:

    How to install the Photo cartridge?

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hi l_john,

    I understand that, with the combo, pack of ink you bought came with a Photo black cartridge, and you're wanting to use it in your printer. In regards to your printer, it is not compatible with the black cartridge Photo, both black and Photo black cartridges are not interchangeable. I have included a document here for you that explains this in detail.

    Thank you.

  • Photosmart Essential 3.5 - cannot get all the photos in the library

    I'm trying to create a CD label to print on a CD on my HP C5580 with an image from my library.  But when I go into my library, are there pictures that until 2013, and not all those who are there.  I tried to add/update the records from my pictures file on my computer, but cannot me, either because the folder is grayed or there is no pictures inside.  When I select the 'File' option in the library, recent files appear with the number of images () after it, but still, I can't select the folder.  I tried to import an image of a disc and the watch file, but with no picture.  Is there a way to get these missing images in my library?  And if not, is there any other software from HP that I can create a CD label to print on a CD on my HP C5580 printer.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled Photosmart essential 3.5 which did not help.

    Thanks for any help.

    I have read several other articles, and it seems that this problem is ongoing for several years and HP is not a solution.  A lot on blogs suggested trying Sure Thing Labeler disc.  So I went to their website and downloaded the 15 days trial version and it worked like a charm.  I used one of their models for the design of my CD.  I was able to use a photo of my photos file and used.  When it came time to print, I had to select Manual to put in some of the parameters for the C5580, but it perfectly printed on the disc.

    I intend to purchase the Sure Thing Labeler $6 29.95 disc, so that I can fully use my HP C5580.  Before get rid you of your HP C5580, try Sure Thing Labeler disc.

  • HP Photosmart B109n: printing in black all of a sudden is not possible on my HP Photosmart B109n

    Recently, I changed the black ink cartridge (about a week) and used my printer that worked flawlessly. Then suddenly, Sunday I was printing a letter; a page came out perfectly, but then, nothing has worked.  I tried to clean the heads printer, all diagnostic tests, went on online forums and the HP support in order to find a solution.  Nothing has worked.

    Lines not yet stained or whatever it is at all appeared on the sheet of paper.  However, when printing tests were made, the colors look brilliant and rich, black appeared only gray. I tried also to clean the tank.

    I live in Bangalore, India as an expatriate and have to buy my ink cartridges on my travels in Germany where I bought my printer about 5 years ago.  As I said, it worked perfectly and then not at all.

    I would be very grateful for any help.

    Thank you

  • Photosmart HP 7510: Change what black ink cartridge is used.

    Our 7510 HP ink slots for small and XL cartridges, however it will not use the small cartridge ink. How to change the parameters to pass to the thin cartridge XL, small is running out of ink and I can't find the black ink cartridge (Photo) in stores now. I bought two 'small', one was a XL, not labelled as such and we ordered cartridges from HP on the web and they were too big too. I need to be able to use the XL Black ink cartridge that is installed.

    Thank you..

    Hello

    First, XL ink cartridges are physically the same size with normal cartridges (same number). The difference is more inks XL cartridges.

    Your printer has 2 black ink cartridges, one narrower called Photo ink cartridge and one large/more bigger called black ink cartridge. When printing in grayscale, the printer will mix all the colors to give B & W. If you want to print black ink only, you must indicate to your printer. Please try

    (a) double-click the desktop printer icon.
    (b) click on set preferences.
    (c) click on advanced.
    d select "Black ink" only for printing in grayscale
    (e) click Ok/apply.

    Note: printer must still all color inks and it will consume a very small amount of ink over the warmng of trial.

    Kind regards.

  • can I print documents with 364 ink photo on my hp photosmart b110?

    I am a student and want to get the biggest number of pages for how I spent... I watched the xl inks but they are quite expensive, I am also looking ink photo because on the hp site, it says the following:

    HP 364 black of ink cartridge 250 standard pages
    HP 364 Photo Black Ink Cartridge 1500 standard pages (estimated)

    As it is said about, I would like to know if it's worth me printing on ink photo with this greater amount of pages?
    I found this photo to oly £1 ink more than ordinary black ink. This is why I ask myself this question.

    Hello

    The calculation doesn't work this way. The black picture because his name is for the pictures and the printer uses black very small photo to mix with other colors so it can last up to 1500 pages. One last thing, you can't trade them, can show and the printer does not print.

    Kind regards.

    I have an HP Photsmart B210 Series printer but I don't have black ink. I get a msg "ink cartridge problem"... I can print with black ink only or do I need to have all color cartridges to print? Thanks if you can help...

    Sorry, but you will have all color cartridges in also, so that the printer to operate. The reason is that all the cartridges color another use to mix together to make a true black print. If you have color cartridges that are WEAK, it may work for a while, but it cannot work without. Thank you, hope that helped.

  • photsmart premium C410e: photo black use

    When printing simple black and white test result is very low. Black toner is full, but black picture is almost empty. Why the effect of photo black empty works test print?

    Hi @Carman

    I want to help you with your printer C410. I understand the black printing ink is very low and your black photo is running low. Black in the photo shouldn't affect your printing of text.  Please use the following document to solve the problem;  Printer prints a blank Page or do not print black or color ink for the HP Photosmart e-All-in 7510 device...

    If you have performed all the steps in the document above and the problem persists, not one of HPs, my personal recommendation is to use the solution put forward in the next video.  I suggest that if the printhead and the printer he are out of warranty.  Hot water rinse printhead - HP ink printers of the series with removable head.

    I have recommended this solution to others and have been successful, but I can't guarantee that this will solve the problem, it is a term of type line of effort. I hope it helps.

  • stop of using photo black ink to print black text and where is past the color ink?

    My HP Photosmart Prem C310 series all-in-one is using the Photo black ink cartridge for printing of text instead of the Black XL that I put in for the printing of the text. How can I use the right to print cartridge? In addition, even if I haven't printed ANY photo and a few pages of text from the new series of color cartridges that I put in, a few months ago are almost empty. Why? How could they be almost empty when I haven't printed anything in color? This is getting ridiculous replacement cartridges every few months WHEN I WAS NOT PRINT anything!

    The ink cartridges game accompanying lasted several months. Since then, I've been through two sets in less than a year. It is 3 sets of ink cartridges when I printed only 3 photo when I first put in place. And have only used the than a 1/4 of a pack of paper to print. I put only two times more paper in it. Whenever it was an inch to 1/4 or 3/8 of a stack of thick inch of paper in the tray. I even tried to close the low printer so its not used for a long period of time, but the ink is still disappear. Where's he going? Why is it okay? How can I stop it? This is ridiculous. I may as well junk the thing even if it still works, because I can not aford to keep feeding ink when its just sitting there doing nothing most of the time.

    Thank you

    The c310a will use the photo black for printing in black if photographic Support is selected in the paper type, or if the setting is automatic and media are detected as photographic support.

    This printer has to separate supplies for printing and ink heads and little ink is required in all the colors to avoid the print head clogged.  The page here discusses how ink is used.
