Photosmart HP 6520 - printing black ink does not after having been replaced

I replaced all 4 cartridges in my printer and tried to print a form, but the black ink is not printing. Thinking perhaps that I bought a defective cartridge, I bought another but I'll always have the same problem. It's the first time that I had to replace my cartridges (remained originals in French - printer was purchased in December). I've never had problems before printing. Please help... desperately need my printer to work!

Hi barbil,.

This printer print head is not removable.

  • P703w all-in-one printer black ink does not print right.

    When I print a black and white document, only a few impressions, but it's very light.  No words will print at all. I callibrated, cleaned print heads, went out and reinstalled the dell ink cartridges.  I don't know what else to do.

    Hi lionness91,

    White pages or impressions of light can be caused by any of the following reasons:

    • Ink cartridges are not installed.
    • Ink depleted.
    • Failure of the print head.

    Here are some steps we can try in this case:

    1. Reinstall the ink cartridges. If the cartridges do not seem to fit, make sure that the print head is installed and re - install the cartridges again.
    2. Try using a spare cartridges to reproduce the problem. We would be able to locate it to a cartridge impoverished if the replacement cartridge helps you to print correctly.
    3. Load plain paper.
    4. In the printer control panel, press menu .
    5. Press the arrow keys to scroll to maintenance, and press OK.
    6. Press the arrows to scroll to print head deep cleaning, then press on OK. Print a cleaning page.
    7. Press the arrow keys to scroll to align printerand press OK. Print an alignment page.

      Note:
      does not remove the alignment page until printing is complete.
    8. Select a higher print quality in the printer software. To select a better print quality:
      1. Your document open, click file print.
      2. The print dialog box opens.
      3. Click Preferences, Properties, Options, or Setup (depending on the program or operating system).
      4. The Print Options dialog box opens.
      5. On the Print Setup tab, select a higher quality setting.
      6. Reprint the document.
    9. Make sure that the Firmware is updated to the latest version from the link: http://dell.to/13SF1D7
      1. Make sure that you have selected the right operating system before you start to download the firmware.
      2. Print head needs to be removed and the cover must be closed before you upgrade the firmware.
      3. After the update of the firmware, install the print head and try to print.
    10. If the steps above do not resolve the problem, you can consider replacing the print head service kit.
  • HP DV9291ea paved, works does not after having been in repair

    I have a HP DV 9291ea laptop. It is a model of 17 inches with a keypad on it. The problem is, when the NumLock key is turned on allows the keyboard number pad of the EEG. I recently had the motherboard changed by HP/Tarsus. I suspect that they do not have load the correct keyboard profile. (Tarsus) they said that should bring the laptop and he will fix it (free). I'll do it if no one can help me out here, is there a simple solution and permanent to this problem?

    I can get temnporarly around him as follows:

    • making sure that the NUMLOCK is off.
    • opening keyboard on screen (start > programs > Accessories > accessibility > on screen keyboard)
    • a keyboard layout will appears on the screen
    • I hold down FN button on the real keyboard and clicking the nlk on the on-screen keyboard button with my mouse.
    • the problem is I have is to support on the numlock key once again I'll have to go through the whole process again.

    Anyone have an idea what could cause this or how to solve this problem permanently?

    If you have a suggestion, please report it to me...

    This thread has been dead for a few years, but since I had to really search to find the answer to this question, I thought I'd share what has worked for me.

    In Win7, go to start-> Accessories-> accessibility-> Ease of Access Center, click on "Make the mouse easier to use" and uncheck "Turn on mouse keys".

    It fixed my problem on a HP G72 with numeric keypad integrated.

  • black ink does not print HP Photosmart all-in-one

    I have new cartridges and after installation black will not print.  All other colors are pring.

    Hi Luv2dance728,

    Thanks for the reply and the information

    I suggest you start as a result of this document for Troubleshooting print quality problems, should be able to help you to get black ink works again. If it isn't, you can also try manually cleaning your print head to make sure there isn't a buildup preventing out black ink.

    If the printer still won't print black ink, it is perhaps an accumulation inside the print head or on the beak and to help solve this problem, you can follow the instructions in Bob_Headrick in this post on soak your printhead.

    If after these three things, black is not always print, it's a hardware problem with the printer print head and I suggest to call HP Support and inquire about their exchanges of and the trade program.

    Hope this helps, have a nice day!
