Printer prints of photo cartridge

I have a 7520 with lots of ink in the black cartridge.  The photo cartridge is empty because I realize now when you print documents from the printer uses and still wants us ink cartridge photo. Now, when I print something it is empty. I checked the settings on my computer and the printer and cannot figure out how to get the printer to print from black cartridge.

Hello

Select "Black ink" only grayscale printer option will use black ink only. If option levels of gray or color to B & W printer, principle needs to use photo ink. Please note: you still need all the ink cartridges when printing black ink only. The Setup program can vary from the printer to the printer but at the bottom (for Windows):

(a) double-click the desktop printer icon.
(b) click on set preferences.
(c) click on advanced.
d select "Black ink" only for printing in grayscale
(e) click apply/Ok...

Kind regards.

  • 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.

  • HP7520 printer using the photo cartridge during the printing of the documents not General and black print cartridge

    My 7520 printer uses the photo and not the General black cartridge when printing on plain paper documents. The black general still full but my photo cartridge runs out of ink.

    Hi shay!

    My apologies, I didn't know that your prints come out in blue print when you have a totally black cartridge. It is a problem of print quality with the printer or something in the settings of your computer.

    I suggest to try the steps in the guide below. You have already tried some troubleshooting, try so the steps that you have not yet tried, I understand:

    The streaks of ink fixing, faded prints and other common print quality problems

    If you're still only able to print in blue (no black print), so I recommend you call HP to let them know. As you mentioned you have only had the camera for 3 months, it is likely under warranty and you might need a spare part or unit.

    Here are the details of HP:

    If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions: click here.

    I hope this problem is solved for you, have a wonderful Wednesday

  • Photos are not print with the photo cartridge

    Hello

    I have a Photosmart e 7510 and am trying to print photos.  I have installed HP Premium paper and HP Photo cartridge installed.  When I print the photos that are green - I printed both a progress report and a report of print quality and the cartridge photo is full but the magenta is empty.  It seems to me that the photos are print with regular color cartridges and not the photo cartridge.  Or photos using all the cartridges?  I correctly on all the printer settings and chose to 'better' than the quality of the photo.

    Any help is appreciated...

    The photo cartridge is just black photo, which is used to improve the nuances of black and colors in a photo. When photos are printed colours would be used to create the best possible performance. I could replace the magenta cartridge and printing resumes and see if that solves the Green tinting the problem you are currently experiencing. I hope this helps.

  • With the help of printer/scanner without photo cartridge

    Hello! I recently threw my five cartridges (on a C6380), I then bought back Cyan/Magenta/yellow and black. I do not want to print, so I didn't buy the black photo.

    However, when I turn on the printer, it stops with the printer screen saying something like: cartridge missing or damaged, blah blah blah.

    My problem is I can not go on any other screen, I can't scan, I can't print, I can't make copies...

    I don't want to spend 20euros on a new cartridge, I won't use it, is it possible to use my printer?

    Thanks a lot for the answers!

    Instructions for the replacement of cartridges is warning that the old cartridges should not be removed until a replacement is ready.  Leaving the cartridges from the printer for a long time can allow the print head or connection ink passages become blocked.

    CAUTION:  Wait until the new cartridge is available before removing the old cartridge. Do not leave the cartridge outside of the product for an extended period of time. This can result in damage to both the product and the cartridge.

    You will need at least a photo cartridge replacement for the printer.

  • E-all-in-one printer, HP Deskjet 3520: HP Deskjet 3520 printer with black cartridge 364

    I tried to insert a 364 black cartridge in the printer. The 364XL black fits perfectly, but the 364 ordinary cartridge seems to be too narrow to fit.

    Am I stupid? Is there a technique for the Assembly of the 364 cartridge?

    Help please.

    The regular black cartridge must be installed in the center of the space, with an equal distance on each side.

    Additionally, make sure that you use the black cartridge 364 (with the symbol of the Pentagon) rather than the Photo-364 (with the butterfly or butterfly knot symbol).  The photos below show the 564 cartridge, but is the same for the 364.

    364 black cartridge has a Pentagon on the cartridge but a circle on the box...  The Photo cartridge has a butterfly on the cartridge and a camera on the box node.

  • 6520 will not print entire photo

    My 6520 will not print a full letter-size photo.  It prints about a third of the image until the computer gives an error message that the printer is unable to print the photo. I tried several quality and size settings, restarted the computer and the printer and changed all new ink cartridges ink HP. Print very well. This happens in Windows Photo, photo viewer and Photo HP programs. Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Hello thehands, welcome to the forums

    I understand that you have some printing problems with your Photosmart 6520 and thank you where I can help with this!

    I would first make a few copies of the printer itself without going through a command sent to the printer from the computer. This will allow to test the equipment to make sure it's right before you start the troubleshooting software.

    If copies work fine, I have to know the operating system you are running. Just to be a little proactive, if you run Windows, run the print and Scan Doctor to see if the tool will correct the printing problem. If that does not help, try to uninstall the printer software and reinstall the printer by downloading and installing here: HP Photosmart 6520 e-all-in-one printer drivers

    If you are using a Mac, try the following steps:

    1. Mac OS X: how to reset the printing system
    2. Repair disk permissions
    3. Restart your Mac
    4. Add new printer (do not use the AirPrint driver)
    5. Test print

    Please let me know the results and if there are still any problems at all, I would like to know the details!

    Have a nice day

  • printing on photo paper

    When I print black and white photos, photo paper out without even a black stain on it, not to print the all-if I put paper ordinary it allows to print the image, what don't get me? -Thank you

  • Will not print on photo paper


    That can certainly create a problem. The photo black is made a little different than the standard black, giving it a better penetration and quality in photos the sustainable standard black did. If you make a photo printing, the printer will always try to use the black photo cartridge above the ordinary. The colors do not have this problem because they are made with a dye which has this deeper penetration as well, so it translates better than black only.

  • PRINTER HP 97 CARTRIDGE

    My old HP died.  I had to buy a new one, but a friend gave me their HP6100 (they have just bought a new).  I love the all-in-one (I didn't before fax), and it works very well.  They gently closed printer cartridges.  One is the HP 97 tricolor.  I can find no documentation that it will work on this printer, and my friend isn't sure either.  Don't know where they got it, and I'm afraid to use it without checking that it is safe.  Can someone advise me?

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    If you are in the United States, then only HP 56 black, HP 57 tricolor and HP 58 photo cartridge will work.
