• OfficeJet Pro 8500 depleted a color ink cartridges - printer will print not except if replaced

  When one of my color ink cartridges is empty ink, my printer does not print until the ink cartridge is replaced.  Of course, I go out and buy new and install it then get the message that another cartridge needs to be replaced!

  I only print in black ink in all cases.  Is it possible to print only black ink without replacing color cartridges are empty ink?

  In addition, if a color is exhausted, I should automaticall replace all color cartridges?

  Operating system: Windows XP

  Officejet 8500 printers individual ink cartridges (IIC); This machine requires that all cartridges to be installed to ensure that the printhead not damaged. In the printer, the ink is used not only for printing, but retain the printer and the print head. We can reduce the amount of color ink, the printer uses by changing the print in grayscale settings or use black ink only. Page 34 of the Manual shows how to change these settings when you print the documents. For more information on how the ink is used in the printer; It can be considered as this page here where he goes into detail about the different ways that ink is used in the printer.
  I would just replace the color cartridge the printer says needs replacement when the machine alerts you of low ink. I would replace all the colors at a time when only needs replacement.
  I hope this helps.

• Color ink cartridge exhausted more quickly

  Hello

  I recently bought 2515 HP color inkjet printers. The color cartridge is depleted fast [60 printed pages] even under fast draft with impressions of color cover 25%. While HP promises 160 pages per color cartridge when purchasing this product. In fact, this model is known ink printer advantage!.

  Can someone help me?

  Hello
  That is expected for a 25% coverage of color print, HP promises about 200 printing pages with a tricolor 650 ink cartridge color based on ISO 24711, which is equivalent to an average of 5% coverage per page, taking into account the high ink coverage you described quite should be terminated after fewer pages.

  You can learn more about how ink usage is measured in the following article:

• 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.

• Why my printer HP Officejet 6600 uses color ink even if I'm not printing in color?

  I've had this printer about a year now. I replaced the full range of ink at least 3 times now, working on 4. I don't post much at all. A couple of leaves a day or two. I always thought she was using color ink very quickly so I thought I'd put it to the test. I changed the default settings in black ink only. I have replaced all the ink cartiridges, color and black. I decided this time I would not print anything in color just to see what happened. Well, the same thing is happening as if I were with color ink. The color ink is empty much faster than black ink. This seems weird to me. Now, we are at the point where it will not be printed unless I have replace the magentia. It seems unfair that they do not mention this clearly when you buy the item. Something like "Oh, by the way, we are not making enough money doing business as it should, then we will make replace you your ink supply, even if it is really not necessary and must take over." I paid for a new printer already with ink costs. Is there a way around this problem or am I stuck with it. Thank you.

  When you set the printer to print grayscale has also selected "black ink"? only

  HP and other printer manufacturers have technology another printer for different needs.

  • 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 Deskjet 6980 series is an example.
  • Other printers have separate replaceable printheads and inks.  An example would be the printer Officejet 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 printhead due to clogs, air ingested in the grilled printheadvor printhead resistances of shooting. The Photosmart 6600 series 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.

• HP Laser Jet Pro CM1415 can only you by default for all print in black to save color ink?

  My impression is text I want to print using black ink only.  I tried using shades of gray, but ran out of all my color cartridges and still have 70% of black left!  Is there a way to get the printer to use only black ink, unless I said to use the color (for photos) so that my color ink will last longer?

  If you use the "Print in grayscale" checkbox in the properties of the printer, which will force the printer to use only the black toner.  You can check by looking at the page printed under magnification.

  Of course if your photos are full page that will use much more ink than, say, 5 x 7.  If you are printing photos on glossy paper rather than the typical plain paper, which will tend to use a little more toner.  Keep in mind that yields of the cartridge is based on the coverage is low (such as text), and the photos have a much higher than the text coverage.  I'm curious about how many photos and what size, don't you think that you have printed this year?

• do I have to buy color ink cartridges? HP Officejet Pro 8600 more Windows XP

  HP Officejet Pro 8600 more

  Windows XP

  The printer will not print anything (including black and white which is my default setting), at least that I have installed a new yellow ink cartridge.  He says that the cartridge is exhausted and must be replaced before printing.    I have black and white printing color cartridges? Is there a solution? Thank you very much.

  DavidDavid salvation,

  Yes, you will need to replace the yellow cartridge to continue printing. Here's a good explanation of the design of the print mechanism, and what is needed to keep them in good working condition. Your printer is user replaceable print head. With this printer's ink lines that need to be filled in ink in this way that the print head should not be clogged jets in turn cause poor print quality problems.

  Written by Bob_Headrick on the wire note: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Other-Printing-Questions/Officejet-8500-won-t-print-Black-ink-only-if-other-colors-are/m-p/1706581#M67899

  HP, as other printer manufacturers, offers you with permanent print heads printers requiring ink for all colors, avoid the print heads.  HP, like some other manufacturers, also offers printers with user replaceable print heads.  These may of may not require ink in all colors in print, even though damage may occur if the print from the cartridge empty.  Finally, HP as some other manufacturers also offers printers with the printhead into the ink supply.  He is replaced at each change of cartridge.  These printers will happily print with a diet low, empty or many deleted completely same models.

  When you buy your next printer (from HP or from another manufacturer) be sure that you understand what is the type of printer and choose one that fits your needs.

• HP Officejet 6600 won't print because the yellow and pink ink cartridges are exhausted?

  I need to replace? I want to print in black and white not color so, how do I fix?

  Hello

  Many IIC printers will not print (work) when a (whole) depleted cartridge. Some still unable to print, but a tiny snail. In short, you must purchase the new color ink.

  Kind regards.

• 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.

• Color ink cartridges

  I have print 98% black and white, so why the color inks run toner?

  Is not brand specific, most of the brands of printers has a self-clean feature which comes into action when the user stops the printer. It then passes through this function & is color or B & W is not much used, it still uses ink due to cleaning.

  That's why I don't concern me about printing in B & W to save ink, because there is no savings. If you have NEVER used your color ink, it would always go down, although not quite as fast as the one used the most.

  It is also a large part of the reason why a manufacturer OEM printer inks are supposed to be able to say, 425 pages on a game, but the customer gets normally much less than the performance. 425 pages assume non-stop for printing that many pages.

  So if you just print a page, after the cleaning cycle, one is probably, using enough ink to print more than 2-3 pages.

  Hope that explains things. Again, it is not only the brand Dell, although some generic inks most original uses.
