Streaks of ink HP9800 on color copies

Re: HP9800 Deskjet... I get a streak of magenta/blue on the left side of all color - plain paper, photo paper copies.

I found the answer in the trade forums of Bob Headrick.  He posted a link on how to clean the encoder Strip, and that solved the problem.  Thank you!

  • My HP Photosmart Plus B210e printer will not print black ink, only gray/color.

    My printer HP Photoshop more faithful 210th has stopped printing in black ink last week. It prints color beautifully, but where there should be black it comes out just as gray or white spot. I have tried two new ink cartridges, cleaned print heads, reinstalled the driver, all to nothing does not. I tried to align the printer, but it gave me a failure message. Need help please, I desperately need to be able to print to school! I have Mac 10.8, so I couldn't do the online troubleshooting.

    -Very well, sounds like you might have clogged or dry print head. What I propose, is that you first use the Tools menu under Setup for clean print heads at least three times. If that does not improve the quality of your print (PQ) or if you already have gift which, I would say that you remove the printhead and clean the back of the cradle with a non fluffy cloth (like a coffee filter) and a little water. The section you want to clean will be triggered copper bumps where the printer makes electrical contact with the print head.

    If this fails, an unconventional way to solve the problem which has worked in the past:

  • horizontal white streaks in print documents only no copies

    I have a HP Officejet 4500 Wireless all-in - One Printer - G510n whose warranty has missed 18 days he y a-numbers. I run windows vista for an operating system. Every 3rd line down I get white streaks along the line. This problem does not occur when I make copies, just for printing a document from my computer. I did all the troubleshooting until the replacement of the cartridge to see if that makes a difference, it didn't. I checked the edits and there is not. I cleaned the print cartridge head by going through the hp Solution Center and manually myself. I did alignments and followed all the troubleshooting process. I still have a problem. What can I do to fix this?

    Well, I did get the help I need for my printer problems. So I had to go out and buy a new printer. Maybe it's just the way things are made now days. Made not to last beyond the guarantees so that people are made to buy more products. Ideal for the manufacturer, but not for the customer.  This time, I bought an extended warranty.  What really bothers me, the economy is bad, and I am one of the working poor.  We should not so good elements market/badly and disposable. What happened to the pride in a product and quality. This isn't just HP but in general with all products produced now days.

  • Ink cartridge three colors will not work

    I have a HP Photosmart C4680 - tried to install the new tri color cartridge this morning - did not get the usual opinion of real HP part.

    Only thing is message on printer "Print cartridge problem" no other no lights on printer - don't know how to print the message.

    I reinstalled old cartridge and everything works except not red, that's why a cartridge installed again.  Can I remove the new tri color cartridge and printer works in black mode.

    Cartridge purchased at Wal-Mart and they won't take it back because the package has been opened.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks for the suggestion - but after to achieve the India and information given to the worker - then, he had need of my serial number printer - printer was upstairs and I was on the phone long enough--I hung up.

    I now fear because of another cartridge because I might be too stuck with it. Will use only black ink now much cheaper.  Thanks again

    The user guide for the 7612 Officejet says on page 167 of the printer supports printing recto verso on support for legal (as well as the formats A3 and tabloid) format.  I installed the driver in my system Windows 10 and I can confirm that the driver allows you to select duplex with the legal size printing.

    Page 65 of the manual Officejet Pro x476dw is similar, it indicates support for duplex up to legal size printing.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 a: printed pages go through process out with no ink - black or color

    Problems with printer - it started printing with lines through text, the cartridges are slightly more than half full.  I have cleaned the print heads and tried the alignment - but he failed.  After several tries, he now goes through the process as if it is printing the document, but with zero color now - so I went to the text with lines through it a blank sheet of paper.  Any suggestions?  The printer is about 4 years old.  I have new cartridges, but if it's at the end of his life, I don't want to open them - especially when those I in it shows more than half full.  Thank you

  • printer will work if the color cartridges are ink

    I have an Officejet 4620. My computer says all the ink cartridges are out of ink. I can always print in black. I need to replace the color cartridges?   The printer uses individual cartridges for red, blue and yellow cartridges. Color will be printed in blue and yellow only, so I guess there is little color left.

    I usually do not need color copies and I have another Copier.

    Hello @Connsu,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I would like to help you today with your color cartridge application today. Because your printer uses four cartridges: HP 564 black, HP 564 Cyan, Magenta 564 HP and HP 564 yellow, if one or all of these color cartridges are exhausted replace them to continue using the printer. Your HP Officejets ink system is designed to print when have all ink cartridges. A little ink in each cartridge is used for maintenance and maintenance tasks completed by your printer to keep the print head system in your printer in good working order.

    The print head is the part that the cartridges will fit. It controls the "reading" of the cartridges and put the ink on the page. If the printhead is not able to perform regular maintenance, due to depleted cartridges, there is a chance that the mechanism of the print head gets dirty. If the printhead is damaged in any way a whole unit replacement may be necessary. For more information about using ink please click here.

    In the future, if you mainly print in black from the computer, you can set your printer driver to use black ink only. Normally when you print from your computer files will be sent to your printer as "images". If your printer "thinks" it prints an image file that ink color will be used to enrich the black ink. If you don't want that to happen, you can enable grayscale printing option.

    • How to set grayscale in Windows:
    1. Click on the Start menu
    2. Click on devices and printers
    3. Right click on your printer and select Printing Options
    4. Click on features or Advanced
    5. Select the Grayscale dropdown and replace Black Ink only
    6. Click apply and OK

    If you ever want to print in color that you just open the document to print, click Properties in the print dialog box and change black ink only on OFF. This setting only will change to print one job and will return to black ink only for future jobs.

    • How to set levels of gray on Mac:
    1. In the software application, click print

  • Scratches/color/ink HP photosmart 5520 problems

    Hello

    1. product name and number:

    HP Photosmart 5520

    2 operating system installed (if applicable)
    Windows 7 64 bit

    3. error message (if any)

    No error message

    4. all changes made to your system until the problem occurred
      
    Used HP 564xl ink pack opposite Greentec for genuine HP cartridges.

    THE PROBLEM:

    I don't know if it's a problem of printer or an ink problem.

    I never had a problem with my printer when buying original cartridges of HP (564).

    I started having problems a month using a Greentec HP 564xl pack (ink jet cartridges reconditioned) that stipulate "Using Greentec remanufactured cartridges does not cancel the warranty of your printer.

    I have attached a picture of what is happening and gradually each page becomes worse until the photos looked like they a 'filter' used these obviously they should not have to orange/pink.

    I did several "clean print heads" and "smear own ink" that doesn't seem to work. However, after a week of not to use my printer, it seems, print your photos as usual after the 3rd consecutive page, streaks begins to appear (very sweet), but in print to keep pages it gets worse.

    Here is an analysis of the diagnostic print quality. (black has small lines, blue is full...) I do not know.. Pink and yellow seem to.

    Hi bbjae,

    Welcome to the HP forums!

    I'm sorry to hear you had problems with your Photosmart 5520 since switching to a generic brand of ink, but I'll certainly do my best to help!

    Since the problem started only once you have changed the generic brand of ink, I tend to call as the culprit to your question, but that does not mean we cannot try some in any case of troubleshooting

    I would recommend that you start to try the steps in this document setting streaks of ink, faded prints and other common print quality problems , and you can also try the steps in this document printer does not print black ink or color of ink or prints blank Pages .

    If the problem persists, it may be time to look in the switch on HP brand cartridges, because if these two documents may not solve the problem then, I feel much more confident in her pinning on the cartridges

    Let me know how things are going for you!

  • 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.
