• Photosmart b109n cannot print in color black

  I have a Photosmart b109n. I tried to print a bunch of images and half of the images was good, but the other half was very strange. As you know a printer when it prints a picture, it makes all the colours of yellow, magenta and cyan, even in the dark. My printer can print colors perfectly but cannot print black parts on the image. It's a gray a little something. Here's an example of what it's like (the grey parts had to be black):

  My mystery is now solved. My statement was false, that the printer uses the black cartridge when it is printing photos. So the real problem was that the black ink cartridge.

• The printer refuses to mix 2 cartridges to print photo (color + black)

  When I want to print a photo to the printer refuses to mix cartridges (black + color) in the field of photography.

  For example if I want to print a photo.

  I have 2 cartridges, one black and the other is colored (red, blue, yellow).

  I recharge them and everything is fine... I have printed a lot of pictures...

  The printer considers a HALF FILLED and printed all that I need very good, expect pictures...

  THE PROBLEM APPEARED A WEEK AGO... NOTHING HAS CHANGED...

  I USED TO PRINT PHOTOS AND HE DIDN'T FAKE THE BLACK COLOR...

  That's the problem for me... Because all the photos I print is delivered with a ridiculous BLACK color...

  PS - I understand electronic and parameters. I tried to change the settings of the printer and I tried to change the settings on the computer to change the color settings. I tried to use Photoshop with PRO settings for color printing.

  SOLVED!

  I changed the settings of paper to Matte 'Photo' (although the photo paper is any MAST)

  But now the printer uses a 2 cartridge.

• hpc309a will not print in color. black printing after upgrading the operating system

  Issue began immediately after the upgrade to mac Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Yes, the cartridges are fine. I downloaded the latest drivers and firmware. I chose the best and high quality paper during printing. Still nothing.

  OK, so the printer is at fault.  First of all, try to clean the holes in the cartridge by following the instructions on this page: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02253171

  If this doesn't work, remove all the cartridges, and then lift the latch on the right side of the cart and remove the print head Assembly.  Clean the electric contacts with a damp cloth not fluffy (the fabric will be ruined with ink), then rub the surface of contact on the cart.

  Reinstall and start over.

• Photosmart HP 6520 - print in color, not black and white

  I have had this printer for some time and configure options so that it used only the black cartridge unless I put it specifically to do otherwise when I wanted to color.  It worked well and I could switch between black and white and color very easily.  A few weeks ago, the printer started to ignore the options I would set and printed in color.  I double checked the parameters, and the printer is always set up for black and white, but now it completely ignores and still print in color.

  I tried the settings at the time of printing, and that indicates that the image in black and white, it still prints in color.

  I haven't added any software or made any changes to my pc.

  Can someone help me with this, please?

  Hi Lulu and thank you for the reply!

  I suggest to download and run the HP print and Scan doctor.  Once you have run the tool successfully, try again the configuration in black and white.

  Please let me know the results.

• HP Deskjet 3050: deskjet 3050 does not print the JPG files in color - all other documents are printed only in black and white

  Dear all,

  I have a problem with my Printer 3050 Deskjet. (USB connected with my laptop).

  My printer does not print documents colors in color, but only in black and white (with the exception of JPGs (photographs) which are printed in color.

  Word or PDF documents (for example) are always printed in black and white - even if they are in color.

  Copy of pages in color on my printer is not a problem.

  This works perfectly well. The printer is connected to my PC via USB.

  Cartridges (color and black and white) are practically new and original HP cartridges.

  Could the problem be associated I could have changed by accident print settings.

  Thanks in advance for your advice.

• OfficeJet 6000 E609n: One color (black) does not print

  Background the color black does not print.
  Background page printed from the printer status indicates that there is no black ink. This impression has said that there is sufficient (at least 20%) supply of three coloured inks. Per the comment above, no black printing does appear on the page printed of the status of the printer, even if the black cartridge has been rather recently installed (2015-12-24).
  Background none of the four "low ink" lights on the printer are turned on.
  Background the State indicated by the HP Solution Center utility displays a green check mark, that is to say, that everything is OK.
  Background the "estimated ink levels" in the utility HP Solution Center indicate that the black ink cartridge is about 60% full.
  Background I've done the first of these two cleaning procedures to clean the print head. It produces no change. (In fact twice.)
  Background I removed the power cord to the printer and unplugged the power cord from the source and then wait 10 seconds. Then I reconnected things together. Nothing has changed.
  Background I cleaned the vent for the black cartridge.
  Background I replaced the black cartridge. The level indicated on the "Estimated ink levels" in the HP Solution Center utility now indicate that the black ink cartridge is 100% full.  No change.

  Background now, I think that the problem may be the print head.  I am discouraged.

  Any suggestions?

  Hi @Upper_Left,

  It seems as if the HP product registration service is temporarily unavailable.

  Normally you get invited to register immediately after installation is complete.

  It's a Web page that can help you know if the printer is listed, or as aid re-register once the number of available service - Registration Question Index.

  The term of defective kernel is used which means that the defective part you are replacing is the same part that you send back.

  When you select the option to change the replacement part is usually repaired or refurbished, is why there is such a difference in price between the parties. It seems that if the defective part is not returned within the specified time. 'faulty base tax' is loaded.

  I can't say for sure 100% that the problem will be resolved to the replacement printhead. If the printer was in warranty, it would be the normal order of operations.

  Please click the "accept as Solution" and the "thumbs up" button up on top of my first response above and other similar issues may find the easiest solution.
   
  Thank you!

• Can I print with only black print cartridge (color those missing)?

  Hello everyone and happy new year.

  Due to the fact that I have does not print in color, I decided to give my old and empty color cartridges for recycling

  the store where I buy them since then, and I bought only the black one (the double).

  I want to talk about 364 cartridges, I have a HP Photosmart B110a.

  The thing is that I get the message on the printer screen saying that the color cartridges are missing

  and even though I have the black one installed and I chose to print something only in black ink

  It cannot print anything.

  Y at - it a particular setting that I have to do, or it is a fact that I can not only print text, even if I chose

  the black cartridge? Each of the four ink cartridge must be installed to print only the text?

  Thank you in advance.

  The Photosmart b110a a ink cartrdiges individual and a separate print head.  To keep the print head don't dry out, you need to have all of the cartridges installed.

  Here it describes how the ink is used in inkjet printers.  In the terminology of this document the b110a is an IIC printer.

• HP officejet 5510 all in one: how to print in color not black

  It seems that my black ink is empty.  is it possible to print what I need color?  they have forms / instructions online that I need to print.

  Help, please!

  Ty

  Hello

  It is possible to print in black only, however, it is impossible to print with color inks as the black color is also the basis for color printing.

  Make sure that the black ink is indeed empty by checking the ink levels estimated on the printer screen.

  If it is empty, you will need to replace the cartridge impoverished to resume printing.

• Officepro HP 8600: How to bypass the color cartridges empty on my HP Officepro 8600 to print only in black

  I am wanting to print Grayscale / black only, still does not allow me to print because I have empty color cartridges.

  How can I get around this?

  I tried changing the settings

  Thank you very much

  While printing in black is only an option when the color is low, it is blocked once a cartridge is exhausted.  You will need to replace the depleted cartridge. Page 94 of the said the manual here:

  Printing in black ink or color only

  For regular use, this product does not print using only the black ink cartridge when the color cartridges are out of ink. However, your printer is designed to allow you to print as long as possible when your cartridges are starting to run out of ink.

  When there is enough ink in the print head, printer will offer you the use of black ink only when one or more cartridges color is out of ink and color ink usage only when the black cartridge is out of ink.

  • The amount that you can print using the black or color ink is only limited, so the available spare ink cartridges when printing in black ink or color only.

  • When it is no longer sufficient ink printing, you will get a message from one or more cartridges are exhausted, and you need to replace the depleted cartridges before you resume printing.

  HP and other printer manufacturers have technology another printer for different needs.  For ink jet printers:

  • Some have integrated into the ink cartridges print heads.  These printers can print generally with one or more of the colors completely empty, or even with color or black cartridges (but not both) removed. The 8040 a Officejet is an example.
  • Other printers have separate replaceable printheads and inks.  An example would be the printer Officejet Pro 8600.  In these printers print head can be replaced if they are damaged by running the printhead with colors off.  Some of these printers allow printing with a color, the other will not.  If the printer is run without ink in one or several colours, the printer may be damaged, but the user may be able to recover without having to send to the printer for the service.
  • Other printers have permanent print heads.  To run only those without little ink in all colours would risk causing damage to the print head because of clogs, air ingested in the printhead or grilled printhead resistances of shooting. The Officejet 6700 is an example of this type of printer. For printers with fixed print heads that could require the service to get the printer to print properly again when the ink is finally replaced.

  The document described here how the ink is used.  The document is written for inkjet printers HP the same principles apply to printers inkjet from other manufacturers.

  If you do ever print color laser printer would probably be a better choice.  If you occasionally print color but especially black a HPI printer as those in the first category above can be a good choice.

  Hi AZGUY47,

  I'm happy that has managed to solve the problem for you, most of the time. Individual programs sometimes do not hold settings, if it is not set in the driver itself. If you have time, you can certainly try to check the updates of Chrome or uninstall/reinstall Chrome as well.

  If you feel that my previous post was a solution, would you be able to mark as one acceptable Solution to others with the same question can more easily find this post?

  Hope this helps, have a great weekend!

• Photosmart 3310 prints random colors even when printing black

  Photosmart 3310 prints random colors in color, print and even when printing black.  This happens with photos, copies and printing documents.  I cleaned the print heads, ran the scan/repair software that says that the printer works fine. tried color calibration and these charts don't print correctly to match the place.  The first printed grid gray background with the nuances of roses square.  Printed low rack square pink dark only on white, there was no way to calibrate.  I put in all new inks (hp only of course), and the printer recognized them.  I have unplugged, rebooted, uninstalled, installed again.  Help, please!  Thank you.

  I'm sorry you are still having the problem with the printer. You can always review the HP upgrade program. This is where you can buy a printer refurbished at a reduced price, which will be accompanied by a full factory warranty. These printers will also be eligible for care pack extensions too.  The number for USA and Canada customers to call is 1-800-474-6836. I am adviser to this program so that know all the options that are available to them when we're under warranty.

  First thing you should check is the print settings in the driver.  You must ensure that the driver know that you want to print in color and black and white only.

  To check/change the settings of your printer driver:

  1. From the desktop, click the Start button.
  2. Click on Control Panel.
  3. Find printers and fax machines.
  4. Once your in the folder printers and faxes, find your printer.
  5. Right click on your printer.
  6. Click on Preferences.

  Now you should be in the area to check the layout and paper/quality settings.  Make sure it is set to print in color.  Don't forget to look through the advanced options.  Make sure that it is located and let me know what happens.
