Photosmart printer 6510

98% of the time that I print with black ink custom setting only in draft mode to save ink.  I noticed recently that was not only my black cartridge low on ink, but also that my color ink cartridges were low.  Is it possible that when the black ink cartridge contains ink printer is designed to use the color cartridges for black ink?

There is color ink used when printing to keep open nozzles.  Color ink is also used for graphics unless you selected "black ink only.  If you print with photo color ink media will be used exclusively, black ink is not compatible with photo paper.  Color and black inks are also used, if you never tell the printer to complete a cycle of cleaning (rarely needed).

The here document contains information on how the ink is used, the Photosmart 6510 is an IIC printer in the terminology of this page.

    Looks like the wrong driver is installed. Try to remove and time the printer and check which driver is used.

    Go to system, then print and fax Preferences (print and scan over 10.7), then highlight the printer and go to sign less down to remove it. After that, click on the plus sign to readd it. When you highlight in the list of so that the background box should tell the 6510 print using, if it says something else bad driver is used.

  • Can print but cannot scan Photosmart HP 6510

    After being able to print and scan at my Photosmart HP 6510 my VIAO laptop Ultrabook, for some reason, I lost the ability to analyze.  Whenever I try, I get the error message "the scanner is currently in use. Wait until your previous task is completed, and then try again. "The problem is the scanner is not in use and I do not see how to delete it.  This same printer/scanner device other users can connect their computers and scan from it.

    What program you use to create the scans and what file format you saved scans - PdF, JPG, TIF?

    I suggest using assistant installation automated HP.

    Go to http://www8.hp.com/us/en/troubleshooting.html

    Work carefully through the steps to detect your printer through the option to allow web service from HP to install the necessary drivers.

  • How can I print on legal paper with a Photosmart HP 6510?

    I have the opportunity to print on legal size paper.  The status bar for my Photosmart HP 6510 does not develop to take into account the length of the paper (at least not that I can find).

    I found I can load a page in the tray, close the tray and it will print.  But it might mean loading of a page of a long document at a time.

    Is it possible to extend the trial of paper?

    I could not find a bin for paper for legal communication on the accessories page: have I missed?

    Is there another solution for loading several pages at a time?

    Alternatively, I'm stuck with a single page at a time?

    Thank you.

    There is an element if you swipe up will drop the lip on the inside of the lips of the paper, on the left side tray, front of the tray and you can load the legal document.  Hope that helps.

  • Printer 6510 problem to put back together again!

    Hi all.  I had a printer jam on my photosmart HP 6510. After several attempts, I was able to clear the jammed paper, but in doing so, I had to lift the printer by hand under the printer to clear some paper to the back of the lower part of the tray of the printer.   Some of the components of the printer (which resembles a pair of wheels of runner grey rubber attached to a kind of shock absorber and a spring) are now coming out of the bottom of the printer. I don't see how to adapt these components back where they are part of the suggestions? Thank you, (see attached photo)

    Hi @SamAustralia

    It took me a little bit, but I think that I thought about it. At one point, I thought that I had broken the 6510 I used to reproduce the problem

    Remove the piece of plastic far enough to push back the roll under it. You will need strength a little, but not enough to break the plastic.

    Then look the other way;

    There is a small black piece that sticks up (like a post), he goes to spring (you may need a flashlight to see it better). Now the Board will push all the way back in the printer and Voila! Fixed!

    Please let me know if that solves the problem.

  • New cartridge for Photosmart HP 6510 appears defective

    I just replaced the old magenta cartridge in my Photosmart HP 6510 with a brand new printer, pack of 4, and it is now telling me that or toner appears to be missing or damaged. The new cartridge looks in good condition and is broken down and repeat the relocation or power off the printer do not help.  I tried cleaning the contacts, but everything seems very clean.

    I managed to get the printer working again with the old magenta cartridge up to who has certainly missed, but now the same error is detected, leaving me with a printer that does not even to print only black.

    I bought the original cartridge in a pack of 4 from Amazon, so have little chance to return the fauly cartridge (even though they agreed it was defective).  Looks like I'll have to do a magenta and hope that works, but in the meantime, has anyone any ideas how I can persuade the printer to work using only in black?

    Hello

    There could be two possibilities for that matter, ink cartridge you bought or print head.

    Try installing the old cartridge and check if the error.

    If Yes, then his problem with the printhead, and the printer must be replaced under the print head is fixed part this printer.

    If not, then the new cartridge is defective contact, HP Technical Support for assistance. If the new cartridge genuine HP, then iam sure Technical Support should help you get the repalced the cartridge (if you are in the United States).

  • Photosmart HP 6510 B211a works does not properly after power failure

    Hi guys,.

    I'm new to this forum, but I hope someone can help me.

    I have a HP all in one Photosmart B211a 6510, which worked like a dream, since I had last winter. We had an unexpected outage yesterday however and once the power came back, the printer insists on the fact that there is no ink in the system. I fear the worst and believe that his brain can be somewhat blurred.

    I have two of your ink cartridges replaced last week with genuine HP ones and everything was fine. My ink level is almost low on the other two, but I have not replaced these yet because it is not necessary.

    Once the power came back, the printer informed me that the magenta ink was 'missing or damaged '. I removed the cartridge, cleaned with distilled water and dry. Once replaced, the printer has changed his mind and told me all the ink cartridges are now 'missing or damaged '. When I opened the printer again, the transport of ink is automatically did not move as usual to allow me to change or remove the cartridges.

    More the touch screen of the printer does not allow me to leave this error message or perform any other function such as cleaning the heads. I tried a soft reset and hard reset, but this proved unsuccessful.

    He's tired? Should I just throw it and head to the stores again?

    Thanks for reading this,

    Fatiha

    Hi rich,

    I replaced the cartridge magenta yesterday and my printer works successfully again! Woohoo!

    My father, an electrician, so between us we have come to the conclusion that when the power came back after the crash there was an electric pick or insufficient tension than normal and this has damaged the chip of the nearest power - the magenta cartridge ink.

    All is well again in any case.

    Thanks for your help - I appreciate it

  • HP Photosmart 5520: HP Photosmart printer streaks

    Hi how are you?

    So I just bought new, authentic HP ink for my Photosmart printer.  It worked perfectly fine before buying the new black ink.  However, now, everything I print has horrible scratches and missing spaces.  The diagnostic test has all the color inks to the fine search, with striated black ink.  It has streaks only in black ink, but regardlress of whether or not I print in black and white or in color.

    I followed all the steps here: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02914910, including align them ink cartridges, which runs the test diagnosed, making sure that the cartridge is properly ventilated, etc.  But nothing has helped at all.

    Is there something I'm missing here?  I would like to address this problem, as I just ordered all new ink cartridges!

    Thank you

    Kathryn

    It worked perfectly!  Thanks a lot for your help!

    I have a HP Photosmart printer and changed the settings of the printer to the size of the paper, but it still prints my doc in the middle of the width of the paper 8 ". It should be printing on the right side of the printer where the rnvelopes and the small sheets of paper can be catchy for the printer.  I tried every setting that I know in the printer settings.  What to do next? My computer running Windows 7.

    Too bad.  I found more parameters to select the paper size appropriate under printer 'properties', then selected "features"... success.
