Hi @ChrissyStar,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that your HP Deskjet 1000 will not print using the black ink cartridge, but will with only the color cartridge.
Please take a look through this print quality guide, Printer Prints a Blank Page or Does Not Print Black or Color Ink for the HP Deskjet 1000, 2000, 3000....
Thank you for posting, and have a good day!

  • Problem with ink cartridges

    We have a fairly new (6 mo.) HP 6100 printer that quit working, indicating a problem with the cartridges. I purchased all new ink cartridges, matching the number posted inside the printer door (933 for CMY and 932 for K). The printer still doesn't work, giving the message "The printhead appears to be missing, not detected, incorrectly installed or incompatible." I have removed, cleaned, re-installed. Still nothing.

    Hi Bigs4Kids,
    I understand you have an Officejet 6100 that is telling you the printhead appears to be missing or damaged. I'm sorry to hear this, but I will do my best to assist you.
    As this printer does not have a removable printhead, I'm not entirely sure what you removed and cleaned, but I would suggest that you call HP Tech Support and inquire about getting the printer serviced, as stated in this A 'Missing or Failed Printhead' Error Message Displays on the Printer or on the Computer document.
    Hope this helps, have a great weekend!

  • Problems with ink signatures

    I used InDesign CS6 to design a fillable PDF form to be distributed via Adobe Acrobat Pro X. When testing, I have no issues with the form fields or digital signatures. However, for this form, we would like the recipient to be able to use the "apply ink signature" feature. Whether the file is reader enabled with extended features or not, I experience two problems.
    One is receiving this message: "The security settings on this document prevent adding text and/or placing a signature on it from Adobe Reader. To fill and sign this document you need to print it out." However, one can simply close the message and apply the signature.
    However, the signature is not visible at the sender's end once the form is submitted.
    Working for a nonprofit, we are not in a position to purchase a second EchoSign license. (The "parent organization" supplies the first license.) I have found another solution, but I would like to know what I am doing wrong because I assume my problems are a result of user error.
    Thank you in advance for any assistance provided.

    Mr. Johnson,
    I just sent another test. The document contains no digital signatures. I also did not save as Reader Extended with enabld features. I still received the same error message that I mentioned above. Could you offer further assistance?

  • Help! Problem with Ink Cartridge Compatibility Photosmart C4383 in my present location

    Need your help! I bought my printer in the Middle East almost 2years already Photosmart C4383 with the Ink Cartridges 140(black) & 141(tricolor).  Since, I already resides in my country now, the Philippines and I still use the printer.  Just this week, I already run out of Ink Supply and decided to buy one.  Since, I bought the printer in another country, I decided to check in the site for compatibility for Ink Cartridges.  The results stated that the Photosmart C4383 belongs to Photosmart C4380 series and it also states there that HP74 (black) & HP75 (tricolor) are the compatible cartridges for the printer in my region.  Since, I still have the tricolor 141 ink cartridge available, I decided to buy only the HP74 (Black) ink cartridge.  But when I place  the HP74 (Black) Ink Cartridge to my printer, I was surprised to see in the display screen that the Ink Cartridge I bought is not compatible with the printer. I was so disappointed because if I cannot use the product then I just waste of money and  and check again and again in the sites for ink compatibility in my region but still stated the same that HP74 (black) is the compatible ink cartridge and also saw a result that states to "reset the printer to work in my current location".  Needs your help to enlighten me and give me the right solutions for these problems and the steps how to do it the right way.   I need to use my printer so badly. Thanks.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    You will need to Contact HP and request a regionalization reset.  This will require you have access to your computer and the printer while on the phone with the HP agent.  If the C4383 is a model only sold in certain regions it may not be possible to have the region reset.

  • Problem with ink cartridge

    OfficeJet 6500 E709n
    Black XL cartridge, newly installed, expiration date 2012
    It won't print.  The printer works; just nothing that's supposed to be in black shows up.
    I've run a printer head cleaning and cartridge alignment.  With the former, it printed all other colors; with the latter, only the blue.
    Thanks for your anticipated help!

    Try soaking the printhead as shown here.

  • Problem with ink cartridges in my HP Photosmart C4680 Printer

    I recently installed new ink cartridges in my printer.  Admittedly I had trouble getting them in place--even following the instruction from the internet.  Now when I print something in color, I get messages saying the ink levels are not correct as shown and it often flashes on the screen the "Shop on Line" page.  What have I done wrong ?

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 "Problem with Printer or Ink System'

    A gander at this forum suggests I am one ofa multitude of people perplexed by this issue. There is a notation beside one enquiry which says 'Problem Solved'.... well it isn't for me. My printer (typical!) is one month out of warranty. I had to replace the black cartridge and, when I did, it came up with this error prompt. I then replaced all the other cartridges. HP suggests removing the printhead and following that they say place it 'upside down on a clean sheet of paper'... NO instructions for cleaning it!! When it is replaced in the printer they suggest you 'rock the printhead left and right to make sure that the printhead fully seats in the carriage' and if THIS doesn't fix things 'try reseating the printhead up to 3 times'... This in itself is an admission of an 'issue' with this product. It doesn't sound like a very scientific engineering 'fix' to me!
    A new printhead costs almost what we paid for the printer a year ago. I hate consigning anything to landfill that I can avoid... unfortunately it looks like that is where this unit belongs...

  • Help with HP desk jet F4435 on MacBookPro

    I tried installing my HP desk jet F4435 with the disc that came with the printer. I received a "successful" message. It wouldn't print. Then I uninstalled the printer and tried just plugging in the USB to connect it. Tried printing and receieved yet another error message.
    HELP!

    Some hp driver software for your printer here:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=219&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=&sw_l ang=&product=304431#N207
    If needed, gutenprint 5.2.9 can be obtained here:
    http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php
    Many network printers do not require an explicit driver, or can use "Generic". They accept standard protocols and can be printed to directly. If the printer can be discovered automatically and appears in the list of available printers, it should determine what driver is needed and go fetch any needed driver for you.

    Hi @melvinc 
    Welcome to the forums
    I read about the issue you are facing on your printer, as it's now showing a problem with the ink system. I cannot locate a "8900" printer, could you possibly have the Officejet 8600? If so, please try out the steps from the guide below. If you reach a step where it asks to replace the printhead or printer, call us directly to see what your replacement options are with HP.

    macbook pro recognizes but won't print with hp desk jet 5550. Help!

    Hi, I used the Mac setup instructions, not the PC ones.  The printer was automatically recognised in print and scan when I connected it with a USB cable.  I accessed the server's web-based page and followed all the instructions, but still no joy.  Thanks for the tip about posting.  I have just posted in the section you suggested, so let's see what happens.  From a quick scan around the apple forums, lost of other people seem to having precisely the same problem (and not just with HP printers!), but unfortunately, no-one seems to be offering a solution!  And trying to get through to the apple online support is a complete waste of time.  They've been 'not available' for two days now.  Christmas/New Year shutdown, I suppose.  Thanks for all your help, though!
