Re: Black ink cartridge does not work

I'm having the same problem.  New cartridge.  I bought a pack of three for $59.00.  I think to install a new one and return to the rest of the three Pack if one is defective.  Don't know what else to do.

Hello Traceey,

Please perform the below mentioned steps, which should solve the problem.

  1. Check the level of ink on the ink cartridges, it should be full of > 25%.
  2. Press on the SETUP ( button tool key icon), and then
  3. Press TOOLS , and then select CLEAN PRINTHEAD.

You may be able to execute the above mentioned as follows at least for 2 - 3 times.

If the problem persists, call the HP TECHNICAL SUPPORT for assistance.

    My colleague in the corridor as the printer even so I borrowed his black ink cartridge and tried: same problem. The printer does not record that there is a problem, but when I run printing tests, where there should be a black ink, there is absolutely none. All other colors print correctly.

    Suggestions on what to do now?

    I had the same problem. I had replaced the empty cartridge black and suddenly, no ink. Finally, what has worked is
    (1) I removed all the cartridges and cleaned the copper connectors with wet Publix.
    (2) I got a wet paper towel and he pressed repeatedly on the silver circular vent that would be under the black cartridge. I did until no black came. Let it dry.
    (3) I replaced all the cartridges and on the printer. I went to tools/clean the cartridge. I did it a couple of times and he finally printed black ink! I confirmed by going to tools/align, and align the cartridges successfully. He had kept before crashes when the black ink did not work.

  • HP Officejet 6700 main Premium: Blue ink cartridge does not work

    Hello, I have checked the ink cartridges levels three color and just installed a new black ink cartridge.  I did a test of color, which shows any blue.  I did all three levels of cleaning the cartridge heads.  The screen still shows that I have adequate levels of ink, but no blue out at all!  There was a drop of blue outside the cartridge, so it's not like it is clogged.  Thank you!

    Hey @ccardot ,

    I understand that you do not get any blue print!

    That's really all that you can do and really all I can do you! The print head is probably the issue.  Please contact HP phone Support and see what they can do to help.

  • HP Officejet 6500 a Plus: black ink cartridge does not print

    I have a HP Officejet 6500 a and have an operating system of Windows 10 on a Dell Inspiron 15R.  The printer does not print any black ink. I have genuine HP cartridges and the black cartridge is about 75% full. It was working properly until this morning. I downloaded your troubleshooting and everything seems fine. I ran the program cleaning head several times, but I can't always get black ink on a page. The other colors are fine. After the second head cleaning, I got a very small black image, but head cleaning has resulted in no black ink. I made sure that the wind had been reached on the cartridge and this problem occurs with wireless and hard wired connections. Time before, it happened and when I replaced the cartridge, it worked. After reading some of the messages on the map, it seems not to be the solution. I also hesitate to throw a cartridge that is only 25% used. Can you help me?

  • Black print cartridge does not work on my b210e printer

    My black cartridge stopped working after replace it with a new. I bought another one thinking that something was wrong with the new, than the one that I bought. Neither one worked. I cleaned the printer the printer heads, and who did not. I removed the print head and cleaned. That did not work. I aligned the printer, which failed. Color cartridges work fine. I unplugged the printer with it on and if kept off for 15 seconds and he turned his back. That did not work. I made sure that the document is aligned and only 20 sheets. That did not work. I made sure that the photo paper is not stored in the printer. That did not work. I confirmed that the wind is ok, and it is. That did not work.

    My printer is 3 years old and I wouldn't expect that it no longer works. I tried all of the suggestions of this show. I'm so severe at this stage. Please, please if someone can help me. I'm counting on this printer for everything I do. I've never had a problem before, so this is not so expected.

    Thank you

    Thanks, but I tried too many times. I went through all my cartridges new color in a week by train. I ended up calling the support team, and the head of the printer no longer works, so I end up buying a new printer. Thanks for the reply.

  • 3520 Deskject HP all-in-one: newly replaced black ink cartridge does not print

    My ink level is full.  I just replaced my black cartridge (with genuine HP cartridges). No black is printing.  I tried all the troubleshooting tips including the alignment of the printer, clean the print head. Remove and reinsert the cartridges.  I replaced the cartridge several times during the past year is nothing new.  Can't understand why black will not only be printed.

    This is your last hope.

  • "Black ink cartridge is not compatible with this printer" message - 56 HP deskjet 5552

    I just replaced my HP 56 cartridge in my old printer HP Deskjet 5552 - I use an iMac & when I try to print, I get the message error "black ink cartridge is not compatible with this printer.

    It makes no sense that I replaced the cartridge many times before without ever having a problem.

    I have already returned a cartridge to the store where it was a problem with the cartridge itself, but the same thing happened with a second.

    Any suggestions gratefully received.

    Thanx, Alison

  • Black ink cartridge will not print

    Putting in a new black ink cartridge the printer says it's there and full of new ink but when printing it don't use it. It happened the last time that I put in the black cartridge and I managed to do it finally work but don't remember what I did. Why is this happening?

    With printing black ink is not like that, there are only a few things you can try, and it looks like you did most of them. If the steps described in the following paper the link did not help, then you might make a physical print head cleaning. Bob_Headrick gave the steps to do this in the post below. If none of this does not work, you can either replace the printhead by contacting the support of HP, or you will need to replace the printer. If you are still in warranty, HP can replace the printer without cost to you. I'll link the information to get in touch with them below. The link takes you to a form to fill out. Once you fill it and she is treated, it will give you the printers warranty information, a file number and the phone number to call.
