  printer HP4480... .use a refill ink cartridge... printer occsionally said... ' Incompatible ink cartridge/s ' oudu a few hours it is softened and allows me to use... Someone tell me 'why '.

  Why not?  (FYI: use in the future something significant, 'cute', if you want to get answers)

  Some manufacturers have a chip in the cartridge that tells the printer that it is empty, for example the date "use before", even if there is ink left. I know specifically that this is the case with your printer, but it can be. Fill the chipped cartridges requires the reset chip. If it has been damaged it could produce volatile results.

• HP Photosmart C309a does not print after I installed new black ink cartridge.

  Printer was working fine until I replaced the black ink cartridge.
  Does not print the text in black on the printer test page.
  The States new HP printer installed cartridge.
  All other colors are working well and were replaced at the same time.
  Tried cleaning cartridges - pulling the cartridge and put back in - turning the printer off and on again.
  Also tried to restart the computer.
  Could there be a problem with the ink cartridge itself?

  REAL SOLUTION. I had the same experience, spent hours pulling my hair like children had project do to school and it was 22:00.  Your cart is clogged! Here IS THE SOLUTION! (: 1) remove all ink cartridges. (2) extract the carriage that circulate in the ink cartridges by lever on the right and the trolley lifting vertically. (3) wipe any accumulation of visible ink on the outside with clean cloth or paper towel. (4) THIS IS THE KEY: keep transport under hot running water to empty all the handwritten entries in the irrigation channels that distribute ink. Keep rinsing in clear water i.e. no sign of ink. (5) trolley dry with clean cloth and blowing in areas, you can access in order to remove the remains of the water. (6) let transport air-dry overnight. (7) Re-install transport, then reinstall the ink cartridges. 8) ENJOY YOUR PRINTER. (9) I saw many entries on this topic dating back two years, without real solution offered. I am an automotive engineer in unemployment. If HP (or anyone else) would like to hire a smart worker, engineer in the Detroit area, please inform. Thank you!

• 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.

• Why my printer won't use his black ink cartridge

  I recently bought a printer officejet 7500 a large format. We use it at home with a computer wireless windows laptop and my mac running OS X 10.6.8

  No matter what I put in the black and white print settings, etc., he will not use his black ink cartridge. It uses color for all printing cartridges no matter what it is. It becomes very expensive and annoying. Since the purchase of the printer, I bought a black cartridge HP new from PC world real.  Since the purchase of this, he has never used since.

  What we're doing wrong?

  Thank you.

  If the device does not black ink print, it may be a couple different things, the cause.  Have you tried to run the print head alignment feature in the configuration menu of the printer?

  If the unit is not aligned correctly, while she can have colors (including black in this) lack of printed documents.  Check out the steps described in the document, found here, to solve a problem of printing such as this one.

  Let me know how it goes.

• Printing on Photo paper with black ink cartridge - J6480 - grayscale does not work

  With:, Mac OS 10.6.6 more latest software HP Print/Scan/utilities:

  The color radio button to use the black cartridge is grayed out if you choose to print in grayscale. If the color cartridge is empty, you cannot print in grayscale on photo paper. It allows you to print in grayscale on plain paper.

  In other words, that it is making me use the color cartridge for printing in grayscale on photo paper. It doesn't look good for me.

  Well Yes, that's right.  The ink in the black cartridge is an ink pigment (about particles of carbon suspended in the solution) and cannot be absorbed by the photo paper.  The ink in the color cartridge is dye based (like dye food) and is absorbed by the coating on photo paper.  That is why all the printing with black cartridge is denied when using photo paper.

  Pigmented ink is used in the black cartridge to produce the beautiful crisp text on plain paper.  There are HP printers with cartridges 'Photo Black' which are ink to dye black which can be used on photo paper.  These printers also have a black text in another cartridge which is a pigmented ink.

• How to remove, head clean print Photosmart C6380. 6515 Photosmart ink cartridge compatibility

  I had found information several months ago on how to remove and clean the print head, but I can't find it now.  I replaced the Photosmart C6380 with a 6515 Photosmart because when the 6380 stopped working I had to buy a large amount of ink and the 6515 used the same ink cartridge #.  However, the 6515 will not accept the cartridges with the error message they are an older generation.  I think that if the cartrides were not compatible, a number of different cartridge should be used.  So now, I want to try to solve the problem with the C6380 printhead, so I don't have to trash my entire ink supply.

  Here is a document on how to clean the contacts on the cartridges themselves.

  I think that the removal of the print head and of cleaning you're wanting is in this post here.

  Please note that soaking the print head should only be performed on the print heads that are out of warranty. Check that warranty end date to the printhead located by the contacts on the print head to make sure he went from warranty. The reason I put in custody which is a printhead soaking, a guarantee will be cancelled.

• DeskJet 932C, you can print with just replace the black ink cartridge?

  My question is basically simple.  The printer DeskJet 932C can operate with only black ink?  Color ink was empty for a while now, but the printer kept working, printing in black and white.  Due to the cost of the ink and the absence of any income available, we just changed the black ink cartridge.  The problem now is that the printer will not print not even black and white.  Do I have to scrape some funds to replace the color ink cartridge, or y at - it another way to get the printer working with just the new black cartridge?

  Thank you in advance!

  Hello

  Your printer can print in black only, but up to a certain point , you need tri-cartouche color otherwise it will not print. It's a little late now, otherwise if you only need to print B & W, a monochrome laser printer is very good and much cheaper to run (in terms of cost per page).

  Kind regards.
