Printer fails to print in color after previously working properly!

I am a pensioner and use compatible ink cartridges that worked correctly in the past!

Now when I print, I get is a partial print in pink!

My cartridges are full of 80%, so there is no problem!

I have tried different methods including the printhead, cleaning without success.

Can you please help?

small correction to my last post! See correction below

Hi suffolkscouse,

you could try after the troubleshooting steps for printing on your printer issues in this case.

your ink is fairly complete, supplies SOLUTION 6 can be more useful and will help you determine which color has a problem.

  • Printer does not print in color after installing new ink cartridge

    I have a HP Photosmart C7280 all-in-one printer.   Windows 7 is my OS.  I have made no other changes to my computer before this problem.

    My problem:

    I installed a genuine HP brand new yellow ink cartridge in my computer because my other cartridge was empty.  After that I installed a new cartridge, my printer normally goes through an initialization process.  This time he did that.  Now when I try to print anything in color, I get a window that says "ink empty Casrtridges.   To print in color, install the following cartridges: yellow "then turns and she says in that it can only print in black."

    I did a Test print.  I ran "clean cartridges".  I did a 'print align.   All these prints in color, including the yellow.  I also did a color copy and printed the color yellow.   Ink level shows the yellow as a FULL cartridge.

    I have tried with 3 new genuine HP yellow ink cartridges and it still doesn't let me do a color print.  I have rebooted my system, unplugged the printer several times and it still will not print color.

    What else could be my problem?  What else can I try?

    Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

    It seems that the error got stuck in the printer driver. Try to uninstall and reinstall the printer software. That should clear up the problem. I'll link the latest software and drivers below. Let me know what happens.

  • DeskJet F4140: Printer prints wrong colors after updating windows 10

    Hi all

    This is my first post here on the forums and it's a doozy.

    I've updated my laptop last night from 8.1 to win to win 10.  Power seems to work well except my Deskjet F4140 printer. It prints, but the colors are false.  bruises are red, red green, green are "purple", made for an interestng very a first impression. I did all the usual stuff, troubleshooting, test the page clean and align the heads. Uninstall and reinstall to make sure it was getting the windows 10 driver, but alas my problem remains. I tried to find a way to change the mode of compataibility and can't find my file .exe for the printer. I know it's and older printer, but it works like a top and I'd hate to have to replace it because of this problem.

    TLR

    update to win 10 and colors are off like hell.

    Thank you

    Robbie

    Finally fixed my printer not through HP. What I had to do is access the so-called Godmode on windows 10. It allows to access all the parameters of the user as well hidden and non-hidden in one place. I went down to my printer and changed its functioning as windows 8.1 and it works as it should. You should be able to learn more about the Google's God mode command line script. Thank you and good night.

  • C6280 prints wrong colors after two changes of cartridges

    I have the C6280 for about 6 months and it prints green for magenta, change cartridges twice and it prints now yellow instead of magenta. All the answers?

    This only happens when you print, or when you perform a copy too?

    In addition, print a self-test report by pressing the Setup button > tools > self-test report. Do you see the mismatch of colors here, too?

  • Tecra M5: print fingerprint sensor is not working properly because a drink was spilled on the keyboard

    My finger print sensor does not work correctly as a drink was spilled on the keyboard. While booting, it automatically "fails" 5 times in a row (without any attempt to slide a finger), and then by default at the entrance of password to boot the disk hard machine.

    This is not a problem and all I want to do is disable the finger print sensor, but cannot work out how to do this. I tried to uninstall the driver, who seemed done without any problem, but during the reboot, the sensor still seems active, and always goes through the same process.

    Everything else works fine and it's just a minor niggle, but I would like to delete the gene of it me beep 5 times then it does its thing.

    Can someone tell me how I turn it off completely?

    Thank you.

    Did you remove the fingerprint software? If Yes check if some unknown device is listed in Device Manager. Please post the result.

    Maybe you can try to disable this unknown device and it will not be recognized as new hardware every time when you start the laptop.

  • print in color questions after changing cartridges

    My Deskjet 1000 J110 printer do not print in color, after that I replaced the cartridges with original HP cartridges.

    It prints black, but no color. I tried 2 HP 61/color cartridges, so far, but without success in everything except black.  I also made several attempts to "ask a question", only to have the search engine telling me "no one else has asked your question. I also spent a lot of time reading threads in the hope to come across a solution, but without success.  Can you help me, please?  I use the printer on a HP Pavillion G6 series laptop that I just bought the last sale online from HP, less than 4 months... The OS is Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1.

    In this page troubleshooting steps can help solve the problem.  The diagnosis in Solution 6 page shows the color?  If so, the question is probably in the driver or its settings.

    If the color does not print in the diagnosis page then the document here may help.

  • DeskJet D2360: Deskjet 2360 - prints wrong colors, even if the test page seems well

    In 10 (64-bit) Windows, Deskjet D2360 prints the well test page, but the colors aren't any application (documents, photos...). Cyan looks like dark blue. Green also appears dark blue. I just updated the drivers from the HP website, but the behavior remains the same.

    The problem appeared after Windows 10 updates (January 2016 and later versions).

    Print and Scan Doctor couldn't fix it. Help!

    (Suggestion: If your printer prints the test page, why not propose an image file with what the test is supposed to look like.) This is useful especially to confirm colors. If I have a print test and see a few squares of color, how could I know if they are the correct colors?)

    After a long period of frustration, I found the non-professional magic solution:

  • OfficeJet Pro 8100: Officejet Pro 8100 won't print color after update software on Mac

    I have a MacBook Air with OS X (Yosemite 10.10.3)-.

    When I connect the printer via USB, I was able to print by using the generic drivers on the machine. However, as expected, update software detected an update for HP drivers - I installed.

    And now the printer does not print in color. I checked every setting I can think, but it is still printing in black and white.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Welcome to the @mandikayencforum!

    I have read your current position and the previous thread on how you were not and are not able to print in color from your Mac running 10.10. I saw that already test pages were color printing and would like to know if the test always pages print in color. If they do, a matter for the Mac somewhere, and I have some suggestions for you to do below. If the test pages no longer print in color, please let me know! If the printer is not printing in color when you print test pages, there is probably a problem of cartridge or printer hardware problem.

    1. follow the same steps of @Waterboy71 on your other thread here to reset the permissions system disk and repair of printing: Re: Officejet Pro 8100 refuses to print color (OS X 10.9)

    2. If you still do not have the ability to select the color printing on your Mac, try the procedure described in this post from wisgirl64: Re: won't print in color from my Mac or iPhoto for HP photosmart D110

    If you find that the color print test pages, and the Mac does not give you the options to choose color printing, I suggest getting in touch with Apple support experts to see if they can help fix the problem of the OS X.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    The HP Deskjet 5550 is not compatible with Mountain Lion and, therefore, the question appears:

  • Failed to get printer hp psc 2410 photosmart all-in-one to print in color

    I have a hp PSC 2410 photosmart all-in-one printer. I use it on a system windows xp, 32 bit.

    I went to make a copy in color on the printer and it gave an error on the black cartridge by saying that she does not recognize.  Had not changed or replaced the cartridges they were half full.  I tried to go out and reinsert the cartridge, but it did not work.

    I replaced it with a new one.  Error disappeared, but it now only prints in black and prints any color at all.

    Replaced the (full) cartridges with new ones, aligned and clean the printer started it twice, without change.

    Close the pritnter and computer, did it again, same results.

    Uninstalled and installed printer and software, same result.

    What could have happened?  Behaves as if it doesn't have a color cartridge.

    Here is a document for your printer who carry on Matt, missing or faded colours. This document starts and you then click on other links to documents based on your results from the troubleshooting performed. Stay with him and he will lead you to how to clean contacts and how to read the diagnostic report, once it prints.  I think that some steps are buried, so here a link to assess the self-test. Finally, here's a direct link to fix bad test models in the self-test report. I hope this helps. http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00048685

  • DesignJet T770: DesignJet T770 will not print in color

    After you move a DesignJet T770 44 inch queue from a Windows 2003 server to a Server Windows 2012 R2 the T770 will not print in color.

    The general tab on the properties T770 printer States ' color: No. '.  Yet once on the printer properties on the tab color color management is set to "Automatic (recommended)".

    The T770 printer driver has been downloaded from Windows Update I was unable to get a T770 driver from the HP website.

    The T770 product no is CH539A / CN375A. Strangely, none of these product numbers have been recognized by the search for product number for th HP Web site.

    My question is how do the T770 to print color again?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    I would say that you definitely have a driver problem if you has not changed the settings in the built-in web server printer at the time wherever you spent since Windows Server to the other server in Windows.

    I check all the settings on each tab in the driver to see if it is possible that somewhere in there color is disabled.

    I also go back to HP.com and look for driver for that machine again.

    I am also looking for a print utility for this machine, which should not be confused with a printer utility, even if they might be named roughly the same.

    I recall there are two utilities is to monitor the status of your printer, and the other is to print and work around the driver.

    When you have found the right print utility you save your print format JPEG or PDF file and then open it in the print utility and send it to the printer without ever open drivers.

    Another experiment, you can try it if you have a practical PDF just open a web browser and access the built-in web server printer and then try to print the PDF file directly by using the option for printing on the web server.

    The purpose of some of these things is number one determine if the printer has developed a problem that it prevents printing color and print JPEG or PDF from the built-in Web server where all you do is send the file directly to the printer would let you know that the printer is always able to color.

    So if you can get the print work utility where you can open the PDF on a PC and then send it to the printer you have to least a workaround while you solve the driver problem.
