Black Ink Cartridge empty, Color Ink cartridge full. Is it ok to replace only the black cartridge on HP 4635??

The cartridges can be replaced independently as they run out of ink, you do not need to replace black and color at the same time.

Officejet Pro 8000 A809 - can I print just black and have empty color cartridge?

I saw in a previous post entitled "PSC 1410 - can I print just black and have empty color cartridge"
that the printer does color underprinting even when printing black and white, to prevent bleeding.
My question is, is this also true when selecting the grayscale printing option in the printer properties dialog box?
I installed the printer using an ethernet connection to a Dell Inspiron 8200 laptop computer running Windows XP Professional

Yes you will still need the color cartridge. The printer uses what is called under printing, it still uses some of the color cartridge's ink in this process, even when printing in just black, the reason is to stop the black from "bleeding"

Can I print in black and white with an empty color cartridge on a HP Officejet Pro 8100 printer ?

Only the cyan cartridge is empty, all of the other 3 cartridges are fine. I ordered the cyan cartridge online but I need to print important documents today. The power button is blinking when I try to print.
I don't understand, black and white should not use a color cartridge to print.
Is there a trick so I can print before receiving the cyan cartridge ?
This question was solved.

The Officejet Pro 8100 ePrinter has the same print mechanism as its All-in-One counterpart the Officejet Pro 8600. This printer has a printhead mechanism that contains 4 individual cartridges: CMYK (cyan/magenta/yellow/black).
One will have to replace the cartridge, if the unit provides a message of one of the colors being empty, before the unit will resume printing. It is a maintenance mechanism to prevent the product from self-damage. Hope this helps.

Please identify your notebook/pc /printer.
Look at the base/rear/side of the notebook/pc/printer at the barcoded sticker.
Post item number 2 as seen on the following example of an HP notebook's barcoded sticker. The barcode on your HP product may be slightly different in appearance, but will still have the important information needed for us to help you.
###Do not post the serial number of your product as it is personal information.###
If your printer is a laser printer then simply go to print preferences and select grayscale printing

Printer not producing image despite ink being full

I am having trouble with my printer. although it is working it only prints very faintly - and in colour only the yellow. it tells me the inks are full and in fact ive not had this long so shouldnt think it needs new cartridges as y et. its an hp deskjet wireless model 3050A J611
THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY SUGGESTIONS

Hello-
If you are using the cartridges that came with unit, they might be empty. Try to print a "printer status page" from the printer. This give more exact ink levels.
Also, remember a click on the Kudos star to the left is a quick "Thanks" for a helpful post.

With some printers it is possible. Try going to the printer properties and selecting Grayscale pprinting.

Hello Lahaina,
I will assume that you have power cycled the printer already, does that Correct the issue for a period of time? or does it continue as normal?

Colors different in full screen view

I could as well post this under "Mac OS X", but I think here in the Aperture forum it is more likely to get help.
I have the following problem: when viewing images in full screen mode, their colors are different than in the normal windows mode. The difference is not subtle, but severe. For example blue skies have a lot more red and appear much more saturated.
While trying to narrow down this problem I found out the following (and here it starts to get really strange): I exported one image as a JPEG to the desktop to see what the colors would be. The thumbnail then had the oversaturated colors of the full screen view in Aperture. When clicking on it, Preview showed the correct colors with a normal blue sky. When switching to slideshow mode in Preview, again the oversaturated colors from Aperture full screen came up.
When I disconnect my 23" Cinema Display, the full screen view of Preview shows the same colors on my PB like in window mode. So I believe it has something to do with my 23" CD.
Can anybody come up with a good explanation for this behaviour? Could this be some kind of a profile problem?
Any help appreciated
PB G4/1.5 Mac OS X (10.4.6) Aperture 1.1.1

I read Zausel's post that referred to the Colorsync Utility. Under the Devices tab I was able to see both my monitors and confirm they were both assigned the proper profile (they were). There is an option to "Make Default Display" in this utility. I noticed it was defaulting to the Color LCD of the MacBook Pro. I had already set my 23" to my main screen in the display control panel by dragging the menu bar to the big screen in the layout tab. I selected the 23" screen in Colorsync Utility and selected it as the "Make Default Display". Now my full screen previews are accurate. Aperture must use the display profile for normal view screens, thumbnails, light table, but change to the default display profile when it does full screen. (previously, it was using the profile for the 15" MBPro screen for full screen views; thus the inaccurate color) Now everything is in sync and my color looks good on the big display in both normal view and in full screen. Hope this helps someone else.

You're welcome.
What?
Sorry, but no. The parts are identical with the only difference being a white housing or a black housing.

Hello there! Welcome to the forums @handyhelpful
I saw your post about how only the blue/cyan color is printing out from your Deskjet F2120. Please check out the guide below and try the troubleshooting steps to see if the other colors will print again.
I hope this helps!

ITunes movie playlist full-screen on tv for only the first one

Hi,
I am experimenting with getting what's on my MacBook Pro (15" 2ghz quad core, bought 5/11) displayed/played on my HD TV. I have tried all kinds of approaches (XBMC, Plex, Boxee (the software version), Front Row, Miro, Serviio, TV Mobli, Twonky, and who knows what else on the MBP as well as XBMC on an older Powerbook as well as using DirecTV's Media Share) but none are satisfactory. The current approach is to connect the MBP to the TV by a display port to HDMI cable.
The problem I am having is: when using iTunes to play movies on a playlist, I can get the TV to display the first movie as full-screen but when it comes to the next one, I lose full-screen. It reverts back to the original size of the video. When I play the same playlist on the MBP display, successive movies stay in full-screen. (Of the two movies i have tested, the first is an mp4; the next one is an m4v.)
Is there any way I can get movies played on an iTunes playlist to stay full-screen when displayed on the TV?
All of my movies are things I've recorded with EyeTV or otherwise captured or digitized and most are converted to QT. Some are flash, some are Mpegs and I may have a few other formats. Nothing has DRM. I don't have any copyrighted "real" movies; they're all little things (music videos, segment from home movies, etc) I have put together. (Features like "scraping" with Plex for example, are completely worthless/inappropriate for me and otherwise ruin what could be a good approach to dealing with all of my media.)
I would also be curious about anyone's ideas about the best way overall to display movies and pictures from the MBP onto the TV. For streaming video I will just drag a browser window over to the TV and then go full-screen. That works for me. It is important that I keep the MBP display free for the usual computer stuff. I don't want it blacked out or otherwise made useless so any suggestion has to bear that in mind. So far I can do almost all that I want but I haven't settled on the best way yet.
I am ok with having to switch the audio output on the preference pane to the TV when I do this.
I am having one other issue: Sometimes I will lose audio half-way into one of these short movies (3-4 minutes long) on my iTunes playlist. I have dragged the movie window back to the MBP display and it still has no audio. I will then restart that movie and it will play fine on the MBP. I don't know what is going on with that. I am worried that the cable may not be able to carry audio ALL the time but why would I still get no audio when I have dragged the movie window back to the MBP if the cable was at fault? Any ideas on what is going on here?
Many thanks.
John L

EDIT: Please disregard the previous post. I am swimming on vicodan after surgery this morning and did not realize how atrocious my sentence structure and spelling were. Yeesh.
Not sure what the problem is. Using my iPhone 3G and component cable I watched Iron Man in widescreen on my Mitsu 62" tv but when I tried to play Journey to the Center of the Earth it will only play full screen. When I play it on the iPhone it will play in widescreen. Does anyone have a clue here because I sure don't. Thanks. Happy Thanksgiving.

How do I change the color of an image while still keeping some detail within the image

I am trying to take a handprint such as the one below and change the color of the handprint to say a light pink (or any color) but I want to keep most of the detail of the fine lines that make this handprint unique. The lines could even just come out as white as below. The main thing is to change the overall color while maintaining the fine details. I have been trying to accomplish this for over a week now in Photoshop Elements 11 and I have been unsuccessful as anything I do just totally color fills the image, which does not keep any details of the handprint. Thank you to anyone who may be able to help me.

Hello again,
Unfortunately, I am not getting the same result as you and I was wondering if you would take a look at what I'm doing and maybe you could tell me what I'm doing wrong.
I go to file, open and bring in my file
Go to Select, Layer, New, Layer
Name = Layer 1
Mode = color
ok
Two things then seem to go wrong:
1. I chose my foreground color, but when I go to paint, a smart brush setting takes over so I had to change my paint color in that setting - to pink. also my foreground box color will then change to gray
2. So then I do have a pink handprint, but when I change the opacity, it only effects the pink - and not the black on the handprint (pic below). I want the black to go away and have only the color there with the unique lines of the handprint which you were able to do.
I'm not that handy in layering so maybe i'm doing something wrong there - just not real sure.
Can you help? I liked the way your handprint came out - if I could copy that with any color that would be great and exactly what I'm looking to do.
Thank you so much.
Tami
