Print in b & W on Photosmart 6520

I try to print pages that have different colors and text b & w. When I select B & W only it always prints the color as well. What should I do? Thank you

Hi, 6520 PS is an IIC printer so no color ink gets used. See the link below for more details on the IIC printers

  • Photosmart HP 6520: HP Photosmart 6520 - error message when you try to use the apps

    I can't access is more apps on my Photosmart HP 6520.  I get the error message "error connection server - 1".

    I don't know if this problem just since I recently changed from a Windows PC on a Mac.

    I very rarely use the apps, so I don't know when it started.

    Everything else seems to work very well I would say.

    Can someone please tell me what could be the cause, or if there is something I can try to sort it out?

    I seem to be going round in circles, and I can't work on what is happening.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hey @TraceyMac,

    Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.  I hope you enjoy your experience here.

    I understand that you are unable to use the pads (Print Apps) on your HP Photosmart 6520 e-all-in-one printer.  I want to help you with this.  A recent installation of printer would not affect your performance of platelets but no loss of connection or wireless Web services could be a factor.

    Note that to access the applications and their use from the front panel of your printer requires two ingredients to be successful: 1) Wi - Fi connection and 2). the ePrint feature (webservices are enabled).

    • Touch the wireless icon () on the front panel of your printer - is the printer connected to your wireless network?  (If not, run the wireless configuration wizard, select your network name/SSID and enter your password wireless reconnect).  If you are connected, proceed as explained below.
    • Tap the icon of webservices/ePrint () on the front panel of your printer.
    • If webservices are not enabled, press OK in order to enable them and allow the automatic updates of printers.
    • This will cause your printer to print an information document describing the characters before @hpeprint.com your printer (ePrint address).  This is known as the claim code.  As another way to use printing applications available for your printer, you can sign in to http://www.hpconnected.com to program applications printing to print and review all the content that ideally will reappear on the front of your printer.
    • From there, you can click the devices tab and use the claimcode to add your printer to the site and take advantage of the available applications, it.

    If these basic steps to respond to a resolution, please, try the following:

    When users encounter this type of problem in general, I suggest from scratch with wireless printer, webservices, and apps printing configuration.  You can clear all of these parameters in a swoop by the factory default restore * your printer.

    Here's how:

    * Note that this step resets the setting up your printer wireless, address ePrint and other custom print settings. If you have created a custom address @hpeprint.com it is permanently erased. For more information about custom addresses ePrint, click here.

    • Front panel of the printer, arrow down and select Tools
    • Select restore default

    Then touch the wireless icon, run the Wireless Setup Wizard to restore your network connection, and then tap the Webservices () and reactivate your webservices.

    If you are able to successfully reactivate your webservices, tap on the icon of your printer wireless () and make a note of the IP address of the printer.  Then, follow these steps to configure a manual DNS:

    • Enter the printer's IP address in a web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer) and press ENTER to go directly to this page.
    • Click the network tab.
    • In the submenu on the left, click Networking.
    • Then click on the network (IP) address.
    • Click Manual DNS server.
    • DNS preferred as 8.8.8.8 manual entry
    • Auxiliary DNS server entry as 8.8.4.4
    • Click on apply to finalize this change.

    No none of the suggestions above restored the functionality you're looking for?  Please let me know the result of your troubleshooting by responding to this post.  If I helped you to solve the problem, feel free to say "You rock!" by clicking the "Thumbs Up" icon below and by clicking to accept this solution.

  • updates failed every night for Hewlett Packard Imaging printing HP Photosmart 6520 series NULL

    Since I have my printer photosmart 6520 02/12/2012 every night he's trying to update Hewlett Packard photosmart HP 6520 series print NULL Imaging... .and it fails every time.  I have a desktop HP P 7 1010 and since I got a new printer, I have an exclaimation point on my computer and it says the problems and when you do it it's is not drivers and it shows NO FIXED.  When you close the session at night, he tries to update the NULL characters again and it fails every time.  I spoke with people from your service many times for more than an hour and they can't solve the problem.  Help, please

    I did some research on the problem of another user, and looks like it's just a ghost update.  Basically, an update 'ghost' is an update that was for the device, but unit has newer drivers which causes the update failing to keep.  The only thing you can do is to hide the update, or ignore it.  Windows will continue to try to push it, but your printer does not need it.  If she didn't need the update, it would install right.  You can find the thread where I helped another user below.  I hope this helps.

  • Photosmart HP 6520 printer: hp photosmart 6520 cannot set print at 100% scale/size

    What CD jewel box impression label width and higth suddenly became smaller. It works perfectly until recently. Have uninstalled and reinstalled the printer and drivers, but I am unable to find how re set the scale to 100%. in this hp6520 Photosmart printer.

    Any help would be appreciated: very happy smiley:

    After watching your @dlddemonscreenshots, I see that you use the HPDD896C (HP Photosmart 6520 series), it is a driver not driver HP class.

    I suggest all first to remove this driver and add the printer again. In fact, I suggest to use the following steps to remove the printer from the device and printers and the driver from the properties of the server.

    1. in the folder "devices and printers".

    2. choose "print server properties.

    • Win XP - with no printer selected, click 'File' then 'server properties '.
    • Windows Vista - with no printer selected, press 'Alt' and then click 'file' then 'server properties '.
    • Windows 7/8, 8.1 and 10 - select any printer in the "Devices and printers" folder and click on "Print server properties" above.

    3. click on the "Drivers" tab at the top of the window "properties of the print server.

    4. choose the printer that you want to uninstall, and then click 'remove '.

    5. choose "Remove driver only.

    6. the next screen will give a warning, letting you know that the removal of the driver package will remove it from the system. Click 'Yes' to say are you sure you want to do.

    If documents are stuck in the spooler to print, you see an error, cancel all documents waiting in the print queue or try restart the spooler to print, and then try to delete the driver from 'Print server properties' again. If she will not always remove the sachet, restart the computer and the printer should correct this error "in use" and allow the driver to be removed.

    Once the driver is then deleted, open start > all programs > HP folder > folder printer > HP Setup and software (or the icon of the printer).  The installation screen and the software opens and you can click on connect a new printer.

    Once you have added the HP driver, try to print a label again and let me know the result. In addition, you may need to change ' borderless printing: Print with border ' borderless Print.

    Let me know how it goes.

    Hello JonHayward.

    I understand your concerns. It seems that your printer software has a conflict. Please follow these steps to try to solve your problem:

    Uninstall your software from the control panel of your computer. I'll give you a document here, HP to help achieve these steps.

    Then clean your Temp folder on your computer. I'll give you a YouTube video on this step here.

    Before installing the software on your computer, please follow this HP document using Microsoft System Configuration. Only perform the Figure 2, Figure 3 and figure 4, but exclude number 5 in the present document. Perform no other action.

    Now, install the full software features from the CD or the Web HP heresite. Please choose your operating system that is appropriate; 32-bit or 64-bit.

    Subsequently, perform step 5 in the document "using Microsoft System Configuration ' . This will allow the normal start upward.

    Please send me your troubleshooting steps.

    Good luck.

  • I want to print in black and white only on my hp photosmart 6520

    Photosmart 6520 windows 7 How do I put this so it prints only in black and white not color at all times.

    Hi macys.

    Welcome to the HP forums!

    Implemented a Photosmart 6520 for black ink only from your Windows 7 computer? That I can help with

    You will want to start devices and printers (via your control panel) with access to your folder and right-click on your Photosmart 6520 icon and select Printing Preferences. The window that opens will be similar to the display on the left of the screenshot below. On this screen you click the Advanced button, and then you will see a screen similar to the one on the right of the screenshot. There, you go the black ink only setting and press OK. Press and then apply on the previous screen before pressing OK again. The driver will now be on use black ink only.

    Let me know if that does the trick for you!

  • 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.
