• HP 6500 ink cartridge black would not print, now it's the color!

  Had a black cartridge half full, printed the morning very well, does not work in the evening.  Read all the messages on the cleaning of the print head alignment.  Has taken the print head, rinsed off the coast of gunked ink.  Black ink now works great!  But guess what – now the color ink does not print.  Yesterday bought all new cartridges.  Clean the printhead again?  Help!  :-)

  Thus, the color ink levels are good. Could be useful running what a couple of print head clean on the printer and leave it for a few hours.

• HP Business Inkjet 1100dtn first would not print at all, now prints black and magenta and cyan

  Hello world.

  First of all I must say I spent most of the night reading the posts here, especially this one:

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/other-printing-questions/HP-Photosmart-C7280-black-ink-won-t-print/TD-p...

  I find that a lot of people are frustrated, but I also find that a lot of people go a long way to help, which is nice. :-)

  I bought a HP Business Inkjet 1100 DTN in 2004 or more and was extremely (!) satisfied with it. This is the best printer I've ever owned when it comes to value for money and durability. However, he was put away for a few years and a friend played with it to make it work. I think also, it has removed the print head and cartridges for awhile. This could possibly make the printheads, ink near the connectors and not dry out the cartridges?

  Anyway, I got home yesterday, and the first think I did was soak the print head in warm water. I don't even bother try everything first. Also, I cleaned up the two electrical contacts for the print heads inside the printer and the print heads themselves. Finally, I used a dozen q-tips to clean ink residues near the two connectors for the cartridges and print heads.

  After all this, I went for a clean full from Windows. The first testpage (power while pressing X on the printer dock) came out as expected... terrible. No black, not yellow, almost no cyan and some magenta.

  I repeated soaking in hot water, only hotter this time (boucherit filled with water in the dish, then dip the lowest 3-4mm of each print head). Each of them sunk ink when I stirred the water so I was optimistic. Yet once, I ran a full cleaning of Windows and print a testpage (hold power while pressing X on the printer)

  Much better this time.

  Now, I had about 50% yellow, which should have been there, 70% cyan, magenta to 90% and the text on the upper part was mostly black. Magenta has helped fill in some places where black does not.

  However, right after cleaning with water or alcohol, it prints fine for maybe 1 testpage, then it is worse. Also I noticed that the black ink is very sticky, so I think he skipped over the years. I know that I can just buy a new set of ink, to make the power contained in the cartridges heads line and heads are full of old and thick ink. Even with heads printing, no need to buy new ones since the supply line is full of old and thick ink.

  I also noticed that the supply line for the cartridges printheads have air bubbles in them. I see bubbles in the yellow and magenta lines, but the cyan and black are too dark to see. I guess that's a problem? I read that energetic cleaning combined with print between the two may over time to solve this problem, but I have to say that I did the cleanings at least 25 tonight and the bubbles are more or less on the same place. (I also notice some bubbles and marked their position). They move when the pump in the cartridges are being exploited, but coming back to the same place after. Almost as if the printheads does not accept ink, are blocked or have internal pressure which must be ventilated. (?)

  So I guess I have to get a kanyle (not sure of the English word), remove the ink cartridge to suck little ink, and then remove the print head and inject the ink, I took the cartridge it is until the power line is free of bubbles also good and old ink. Then replace the cartridge and the head.

  Am I mistaken or I think much too advanced?

  Here are some of the testprints in the correct order. There are many others, but I downloaded the most important.

  

  

  

  

  Note that yellow was there at the beginning, so also was the cyan. Now they are both almost gone again. I suspect than that to have something to do with air bubbles? I'm not sure. Magenta seems to be the only color as well. : PEI

  I also tried the tip to the subject of bumping the cartridge (I did the same thing with the print heads) with no noticeable improvement. Also, I cleaned the rubber gasket on the black cartridge with a paperclip. Of course, he came out with ink, but it was sticky.

  Please answer because I would really get this printer up and running again. :-)

  Hi again. Sorry for double posting, but I thought it deserved a post of its own.

  After having tried everything last night (I worked at least 8 to 10 hours on the * beep * printer) I got so sick so I just took all the print heads and tempered 5mm lower them (side of the printhead) in hot water and let it just sit there for 2-3 hours. I had forgot about them when I went to bed. I cut them a bit and inserted into the printer, rand a clean and printed this:

  

  The yellow one is still a little with rays, I guess that some nozzles are always blocked, but at least now I know the formidable powers of the hot water. :-)

• My L7680 printer would not print because the cartridges were beyond the expiration date.

  I couldn't work around this message and continue printing, although there is a lot of ink in the cartridges.  I had to go out and buy new cartridges.  This is not fair at all - what is the reason to do this other than to force customers to buy more cartridges?

  I found that if I open the door of cartride, get out the black cartridge, just enough to clear the pin code, push it in and close the door, the screen will soon change the installed original HP cartridges.

  I hope this works.

• My Officejet 4620 do not print black ink

  I replaced the black cartridge on my Officejet 4620 with a new high-capacity HP cartridge and it won't print black ink on the test page, any application or function of Copier.  I have reset the printer nothing helps.  The ink level indicates that it recognizes the new cartridge and says it's full.  Black ink out of the cartridge when I put my finger against the exit hole.  I cleaned and aligned the print heads, but still no go.

  just in case someone else has this problem, heres whats really past and heres how to fix this annoying problem. its relatively easy to do and more efficient than wasting money on a new printer or have that he repaired as most people eventually do.

  going on what? the ink has clogged print heads and solidifies closed. the function of "clean print heads" the printer comes with doesn't have the ability to solve this problem. This feature is to clean the heads Sales, not clogged heads. Why hp decided to make this model without a simple to remove the cradle is beyond me, but fortunately the cradle out and can be cleaned with hot water.

  theres a few items, you will need to get there easily, or you could just burst the branch loppers, like I did and vent your frustrations.

  you will need: a pair of slender beak pliers, a screwdriver torx T9 (selling auto parts stores them for a few dollars), paper towels and a space for work (its easier to do this in a corner of a room, on a small table or floor).  Keep in mind that you are dealing with ink, then change your clothes right just in case and also catch a paper plate or a few sheets of paper to print to set ink cartridges while you work.

  (1) ok. lets start. !!! FIRST UNPLUG THE PRINTER RIGHT NOW, IF YOU DO NOT ACCIDENTALLY DIE BY ELECTROCUTION!  I forgot and when I started unscrewing the first 6 screws, kept chime jump and im like * beep *? I was impressed by the security measures hp took as model engineering.

  (2) the printer is now disconnected and then go to your corner your work surface and place the printer, so there is a wall or a barrier on the left, and also, a wall or a fence behind it. This just in front of her as if you were about to use it.

  (3) now, what you have to do, is to open the printer as you will change the ink and on the right side, there is a plastic guide that prevents opening all the way to the top. Look on the side and you'll notice that he could jump off with fingers. pop off and open it completely open, so you can get to the screws of the cover you would have prevented access to.

  (4) press the scanner part and the upper part against the back wall.

  (5) all the screws you will be remove are the size T9H torx screws. There are ten total. There are 2 black screws in the top of the forehead and then 4 black screws in the top of the back. Remove them and put them on your paper plate.

  (6) following is 1 screw silver short located under the Control Panel, use your finger and feel under the * button. Unscrew, place it on the paper plate.

  (7) depending on whether you want to remove the face/Control Panel to get in the last 3 screws so locate the illustrations on the top of the printer, there are 2 on the lower left and 5 at the bottom right (1 and 2 on the left explain removals of paper jam and 1-5 on the right then explain change in ink cartridges). then about half an inch South of the illustration of the number 5 on the lip, is a plastic stand. six inches to the left is an another then 6 inches to the left, under the number of the illustration 2 (remove the paper jam) is a third support. Unscrew using your nails. Flip it up just like the hood of the car, and eten on the main top of the printer, keep the flat wire which is connected to the frame of the control panel (if the flat wire jumped because you got too loud, then simply insert it in when you go back).

  (8) then unscrew the 3 long silver screws that are located under the Panel you just popped off the coast. There is 1 on the left and 2 on the side rightish. mix 'em on the paper plate.

  (9) now that all the screws are removed, take the Panel front and partially pop it back together.

  (10) then take all over (the part with the small illustrations and lift like a hood of car, ONLY THIS TIME OPEN IT LEFT and he balanced on the edge of the printer, to lean over towards the wall or an obstacle on your left.) MAKE SURE NOT TO PULL ON THE STRIP OF COLORFUL SON FRUITS LEFT AND ALSO THE FLAT BLACK WIRE CONNECTING PART SCANNING FOR THE MAIN OF THE PRINTER PART.

  (11) then take the pliers to tapered spout and remove the 2 silver tension springs located behind the printer cartridges. Pay attention to where they were attached so you remember where they go during the Assembly. take a picture with your phone if you have to, or simply re - understand it like I did. mix 'em on the paper plate.

  (12) then disconnect the 2 large flat wire and 1 small flatwire attached to the back of the ink cart. take a picture or can remember like I did. I guess bad things can happen if you reverse the on re-Assembly. Pick up the phone and take a picture of quik to be sure.

  (13) now remove the cart ink, cartridges and all, by lifting the front first.  Be careful of the transparent tape little there that moves the carriage from left to right and vice versa. you don't want to damage this little guy. now take the transport to your paper plate. not some ink or accidentally get it on your fingers without knowing or will make a mess.

  (14) remove the ink cartridges and put them on the paper plate, side ink to avoid a mess, these things sometimes drip. put the plate side. its time to clean the print heads.

  (15) then go to the sink, to the distribution of empty ink and turn on the hot water and then let the transport of empty ink sitting there with the water mainly through the clogged color screen (inspect and make you is not a small rubber seal surrounding the small screen, if there is do not waste it. I didn't look too closely and I don't think that hp has them but I have a few other printers). It will stain the sink but water ink he comes out to be sure. notice there is also a small circuit attached to it. don't bang it upward but getting wet does not matter.

  (16) continue to do this until the water is clear.

  (17) then use your finger and rub the screen gently with your finger and then rinse it, taking ink until the water is clear. This continues until there is no more ink and screens are clean. do it for all the colors just for good measures. the color of problem that would not print, you'll notice takes longer to clean than the other colors.

  (18) now look on the lower side of the transport. these strange looking things are the leaders. Rinse in hot water and dry them with paper towels. then flip it over and the breath on the side of the screen again. also between the screenside and heads (on the side of the transport) is an opening which is also probably gunked up. It blows with water too. Then, turn it over and wipe the head again. Repeat this step until no fades or until you are sick and tired.

  (19) shake, then use paper towels to dry the entire unit. Make sure that the device is dry.  especially inside the female plugs. blow inside or out dry hair and dry gently. do not stand there and melt the but with the blow dryer. but the sooner it dries less your ink cartridges, sitting on the paper plate will dry out. the custom of the ink dry quickly just do not take a NAP or go on a date until you're back with part of the ink.

  (20) now you have finished cleaning the heads and probably don't need to do it again for the length of time, it was because you bought the printer. and just as a roadtrip you used a map to navigate, you will use these instructions in reverse for reassembly. but keep in mind when re - insert the 3 flatwires that you disconnected from the back of the ink cart, make sure you that have small metal contact on the flatwires points (side male) inserted so they affect small metal contact points on the caps of transport (feminine) side. ALSO BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE BLACK FLATWIRE CONNECTING THE SCANNER PART PART HAND PRINTER. THERE IS A SMALL GROOVE IN THE PLASTIC WHERE IT CAN SIT TO GUARANTEE NO CRIMPAGE. USE IT. also make sure that the 2 hinges to the scanner portion/cover are placed correctly before the fixing of the top with the 6 black screws.

  now raise the printer and reinstall the ink cartridges. then plug in the appliance and turn it on.  If you get notifications on the control panel telling the custom of transport move, then open the trunk and remove the ink cartridges, hustles and ensure that transport is installed and that the tensioner springs are in place correctly. Repeat the operation if necessary until notifications go away or just do a test print and do not take into account the notification if you messed with it a few times already. That's what happened to me and the notification went his own. Once its online, open the hp utility and press the button "clean the heads. do 2 x in a row and you will be in style, with colors extremely rich and "BOLD" and Yes, printed black raven.

  p. s.

  You can always take your aggression out with tree limb loppers or Tin shears like I did and cut the plastic Center keeps you to transport directly outside. Completely eliminates the disassembly and reassembly. Make sure you DO NOT CUT THE TRANSPARENT TAPE THAT MOVES BACK AND FORTH TRANSPORT. This way the next time it happens it takes you only 10 minutes before you are upward and printing.

  Enjoy!  -Porf

• OfficeJet 6000: OfficeJet 6000 does not print

  Replace the ink cartridges for Officejet 6000 would not print.  It prints the words Page Windows printer to test a test page of color with a printer icon in the upper right, then at the center of page 4 with a white fill boxes; yellow fill, blue fill and a red fill.  That's all.  I touched a "print test page" and the paper comes out blank, although that normally shake it like the print head moves back.

• Photosmart HP: HP Photosmart printer will not print anything other than a Web page

  Someone please help.  I'm so frustrated right now.  My printer has stopped printing another thing than Web pages.  If I try to print a word document, there is nothing to print.  She acts like it is printing but nothing goes on paper.  If I try to print a pdf file... I got the text, but for most of the lines of the text.  The only thing I can print now is Web pages.  It is zero logic.  I have reset the printer. I unplugged the printer.  I deleted the printer.  I have readded the printer.  I tried almost everything what I found on these sites and nothing works.  I noticed it would not print this past Sunday and I finally had the time to watch tonight and I can't fix it.  I thought I ran out of ink or something, but these are all fresh cartridges and the printer test works.  Also, as I've shared it it will print Web pages.  Just nothing else that me is not good when working on papers for my master's program.  Help!

  Hello @sdock,

  It is a great place to get help! I read your post and see that you cannot print of all applications on the Mac, but you can print a self test and on the web. I want to help you solve this problem.

  Welcome to the HP Forums, I'd love to help you with your Officejet printer problems.

  Try to make a copy on your printer. Place a document face down on the scanner glass, and then press the color copy option to make a color copy. If the copy works fine, so that the issue might be with the printer drivers. Try the following steps:

  • If present, disconnect the USB cable between the printer and the computer.
  • Go to control panel of configuration-programs and feature - select all of the HP Officejet printer entries and uninstall them.
  • Restart your computer.

  This is a request for additional assistance from HP, Apple and AT & T Community Forums

  Wireless Router Range Extender: Linksys RE6500

  Multipoint unresolved printing problem:

  HP OfficeJet Pro 8610 had printed out successfully all the three above mentioned computers since the purchase of the 04/04/2015. End of August 2016 he started intermittently refusing to print wireless, sometimes do not connect wireless or holder from job to job.

  09/06/16 I posted the question on the Forum of community HP between 07/09/16 and 08/09/16 had dialogue on possible solutions. I followed the Commission received and interpreted it following recommended tasks - all without result:

  (1) sequential power off and cord power to the router Range Extender, OfficeJet 8610 Pro and iMac and removal after 60 seconds of powering the devices in the same order. Result: would not print.

  (2) off wireless to iMac. IMac connected to a printer via an Ethernet cable. Printer would not print.

  (3) tried to scan the printer for iMac's wireless: would not scan.

  (4) tried Scan via an Ethernet cable from the printer to iMac: Scan worked.

  (5) connecting iMac via an Ethernet cable to the router and printing system reset iMac to remove the printer and then added printer as directed by its name: HP OfficeJet Pro 8610 [455491]. The results have been mixed:

  (a) wireless to iMac to the router and Ethernet cable router for printer: test page printed.

  (b) the iMac to the router and wireless router for printer: test page will not print.

  08/09/16, having nothing specified by HP Community Forum, I contacted AT & T, the provider of my router and all my services (wireless, broadband, Internet, fixed phone) for the Support service.

  AT & T: recommended

  (1) make a new Setup wireless printing HP itself using my secure wireless network name and password, and then perform a reboot of the router. Between the two actions (new set-up and router reboot), the printer starts and print a previously submitted test page. To confirm that the printer was actually working, I turned off the printer, waited, he turned back and tried to print Test page: the page not print.

  (2) AT & T then told me to do a new manual of the printer setting. Just as I got Set Up on the screen of the printer, the printer prints the Test Page.

  AT & T told me that the printer should work fine now.

  Once I have shut down my system and restarted the 09/09/16, I found that I could not print anyway:

  Wireless to the router for printer

  Wireless to the router and Ethernet cable for printer

  Ethernet cable to the router and wireless to a printer

  Ethernet cable for printer

  Another experiment on 11/09/16 led to erratic printing depends on the original machine:

  1 iMac for HP printer: wireless printer for iMac gives not the Page of Test sent for printing, but a series of blank pages, followed by several pages of code and followed by more white pages. Code pages are all the same and then talking about the Cambria police (body).

  a. the first pages all State: %! PS-Adobe-3, 0% APL_DCS_Encodiong: UFT8% APLProducer: (Version 10.11.6 (Build 15 1)

  b. human beings second page with: 14 start/FontName dict / TJOLUV+ def Cambria

  Page 2 on three subsequent print reading attempts the same as above, except for a different set of letters before "+ Cambria". A UAXKPA, a JJCFBS, and the third is WOKHHG.

  2. yet, when I tried to print the Test Page of the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro wireless, printing is successful (i.e., the test page prints and do not print pages blank and coded.

  I'm sorely need a remedy to this overall situation.

  • What is originally intermittently, the HP printer?
  • What is originally a wireless printing and Ethernet to vary?
  • What is causing the iMac to print Virgin and code pages when the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro both print pages "regular"?
  • The question one demanding a new router?
  • DOE the question indicates the need to uninstall the printer and then perform a reinstall?
  • With all machine software updates could be software problems cross machine?

• LaserJet P2055DN - do not print over the network

  Configure the printer last night as a network printer (which replaces a former 2300dn LJ). It would not print a test page. To verify that the printer was good, I have loaded the drivers on my laptop and connected via usb.  Was able to print a page of test via USB.  Disconnected usb and reconnected power cable. Released and reset the ip address.  Verified the ip address in scathing of the host.   When I ping the printer I usually lose half of the packages.  There are two other HP printers on the network, a P2015dn and a color 2605dn LJ. Ping their IP back to 100% with a ttl = 255. Ping the p2055 produced 4 packets sent, 2 packets received, 2 lost packets, ttl = 64 2 returns.  I changed the printer cables and exchanged the network switch ports (verified the network switch ports by printing to the LJ 2605) with the same result. I can't get the internal web server to mount, or it partially displays or combinations of these.  If this was the old style removable print server as in my lj2300, I could swap out, but it's not like I can do with this model.  When I send a test page to the printer, it displays "printing", the green light on top flashes, the activity on the network card light flashes, but nothing happens. Finally, I get a «this document failed to print "notification on the host, but the printer still says 'printing' and the lights are still flashing.»  Anyone have any ideas?  I think I'm looking at a bad network/print the server maps in the P2055.

  I also had problems printing over the network to the hp p2055dn. There was no problem via USB printing. All the network settings were ok. Can ping, etc...

  Number of days of bickering, finally found that the Config.Security Network should be reset on the physical control of the printer Panel.

  Press Ok on the Control Panel printer--> press down arrow, you get to Setup Menu Network Config--> press Ok--> a number of arrows down you get to Config network. Security--> press Ok--> you have two options - keep or reset--> choose Reset... Network printing should work fine.

• Ink HP Photosmart B209 black does not print!

  My printer was working fine just a week ago, but then black ink started all disappeared or simply would not print at all. I thought that the ink must be low, so I changed the cartridge. It is still not printing black. The other colors work fine however. I tried realignment, clean the print heads, check if there's any packing left cartridges, etc. I couldn't find anything that worked. Help, please!

  I had the impression for only 2 years and it is the first issue I've had with her.

  YES! I just figured out what was going on. I thought I had cleaned the print head, but it turns out that I don't have. I was playing around with the touch screen which is on the printer and under Tools, I found an option that says clean print head. I chose this and it print a sample page with all of the ink black included. Just in time to print articles for my paper that tonight. I hope this helps!
