Use of starter ink

When my 8500 HP officejet A909a printer is turned on, he spends a lot of time blowing away until it's ready to use. Meanwhile, she pointed out to clean the ink heads.

How much ink does use its cleaning ink heads?

Is it better to leave the machine running to minimize this cleaning process?

Thank you

Hello Simplefella,

Yes, you must leave the device, because it would prevent you from cleaning so. If you turn that it completely off the unit will clean his inktheads as a precoution. Because this unit is equipped with a fax, it is intended to be marketed in all the time. To avoid a greater use of power it is a standby mode built into the printer.

Only small amount of ink are used for cleaning, but if you stop all the time a lot more cleaning will then be necessary.

  • HP Photosmart 7510 won't use photo black ink

    I have a photosmart 7510 printer and I am printing from microsoft word 2010 on a windows 8. I print a word with no pictures in document. Printer preferences are on plain paper with normal quality. I can't the printer to use the XL Black ink cartridge. It only uses photo black ink. Is there a setting that I can choose to let him use the regular black ink?

    Hi shirsar,

    I understand that you have a Photosmart 7510 which seems to use a lot more than regular black ink black photo. I'm sorry to hear that, but think I can help you with a solution.

    You can set the printer to use only black ink when printing from the PC and ensures that it uses black ink and no ink picture. My instructions will be set up in the pilot if he does for all programs (if you just want to program it please let me know, and I advise you more). You'll want to start by going to your start screen, and simply start typing devices and printers, and you want to open that (if that is not in the work Panel type and then proceed to open devices and printers). Once the devices and printers is open, right-click on your Photosmart 7510 icon and select Printing Preferences. You'll want to then click on the Advanced Options button at the bottom right of the screen. The next page that appears will allow you to set the printer to use black ink only when printing from the PC (please follow the screenshot below for any clarification).

    Hope this helps, have a nice day!

  • Photosmart 7510 - I want to use only black ink since I don't have all the need for a color.

    Photosmart 7510 - I want to use only black ink since I mainly use this for work and don't have all the need for a color. If I have more ink, can I just replace the black and it still work? Thank you very much for any information you may have!

    Hello

    I did a few test last year, you can print black only master always need color ink for the printer. Black setting only as a default printer will only print black and it consumes a little over heating of the process color inks. In short, it will not be printed correctly when run out of color ink (s) or does not start at all.

    Kind regards.

    Hi TJBar,

    This link should give you the information you need to explain the menu print, print menus. In order to print in black only, you can select "print in black and white." Note, however, that color will be used during maintenance of your printer. This is necessary to prevent the healthy color ink for when you do not need to use it.

  • 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.

  • HP Deskjet F4480: Can I use just black ink in my printer HP Deskjet F4480?

    I have a HP Deskjet F4480 printer.  I only use it to print in black ink.  Is it possible to use only black ink in the printer (which is much cheaper)?  Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Grayscale is more useful for printers that have four or more cartridges. You can find on the feature by clicking on this link, but I'm not positive how useful it will be for you.

    Insert a black cartridge in the color slot will not have to act as a backup cartridge. The printer will see that it is not a color cartridge and refuses to read or use it.

    Please let me know if that solves your problems.

  • 63xl ink: what printers use a 63 ink?

    How can I find a list of all printers that use HP 63xl ink cartridges?

    I recently picked up a DeskJet 2132 (impulse buy) to use in my office (he was super, thx!), but for my home office (several laptops, tablets and desktop wireless) I need a printer with wifi and a scanner with a document feeder (cheaper, of course).  I strongly prefer to get something that uses the same ink cartridges, HP 63xl (black & color), but I have not found a way to search only those.

    Please note that I don't want to sign up program instant HP ink (my use is too variable to make it profitable for me).

    It seems that HP makes more difficult it should be to find this information, but the following models support the HP 63XL cartridges.  For your needs the HP Officejet 4650 can be a good choice - it's an all-in-one with wifi and an adf.

    Important: While running scan on the hard drive if bad sectors are found on the hard drive when scanning try to repair this area if all available on which data may be lost.

    Method 2: If this does not help then you can uninstall and reinstall Windows search 4.0 on the computer.

  • Fix BSOD when using chkdsk/start

    From these, my computer hangs when it tries to run Chkdsk (since I used windows, it crashed trying to use not start repair) ive tried a number of things, including: using command prompt instead, using an ERD win7, winfixit program and using the command prompt here same thing with the "sfc/scannow" command and it tells me that a repair is underway on reboot (which, once I restart it says the same thing) ive tried chkdsk/r, any combination of chkdsk /f x + / something

    When he tries to chkdsk on reboot (you know, one where he gives a countdown until it begins), it stops at Midway and said something in the sense that a recently installed program ive prevents it. including the single "recent programs" ive installed were video games or cpu - z and ive scanned my pc for viruses / malware using Avira and malwarebytes. None found anything. Ive tried a number of other things that I can't think right now, but my pc works yet oddly enough, but its been crashy since and I don't know if or when his will stop working.
