New black ink cartridge not working

I have installed new ink cartridges and all the colour ones work but the black will not print out. Level of ink is fine, touching where the ink comes out is wet and black as is where it goes in on printer, but will not print out black at all only colours. Any ideas as to why?

How can I get the wireless hardware fixed on my HP photosmart C7250 all in one printer?

I did the test by holding down the # 6 and it said that the wireless hardware needed service. Any advice on where to get it serviced? Thank you!

Make sure it is a genuine HP cartridge. Take it out and clean the contact on the cartridge and in the printer. Try again.

HP Photosmart Premium Fax All-in-One Printer-C309a-new black ink cartridge will not print

i just installed a new black ink cartridge (manufactured by HP) when print quality became poor in the middle of a job. it completed the job fine, but when i have tried to print subsequently, only those parts of the document that are in color/greyscale will print. the black is simply absent from the document. the supply level is showing as fine and all diagnostics indicate there is no probem. i have not received any error messages. i have tried turning the printer on/off. i have tried cleaning the printheads. i have tried uninstalling & reinstalling the cartridge. i do not have any additional black cartridges to try to see if that will solve the problem, but as noted above, it did work initially. i am just printing to regular plain white printer paper. i have tried all the relevant steps in the HP troubleshooting document for poor print quality posted elsewhere on this page. nothing has worked! someone else's post mentioned resetting the printer, but did not say how it was done. any ideas on a solution??? thanks!
This question was solved.

To reset the printer, follow these steps:
While the power is on, remove the power cord from the back of the printer. Wait at least 30 seconds, then connect the power cord to the back of the printer, then turn the unit on. That will complete a power reset.
Now, missing black during printing can be a result of a couple of things. If it is only missing say when printing from Word, then the print settings within Word are set to grayscale only (or something similar) which would exclude the black cartridge. If it is from all programs, then it is either the main print settings set to grayscale only, or the printhead/cartridge is clogged up/dirty. If it is not the print settings, then create a print quality report and follow the steps in this document:

Photosmart C7280 All-In-One won't recognize new black ink cartridge

Black ink was very close to running out, purchased a new one and replaced it. Now whenever I try and print something I get a popup that says: "Install new black ink cartridge if available. To continue with other colors, press Continue. Black color will be simulated. Text and photo quality will differ from those printed when using all cartridges. If empty ink cartridge is not replaced soon, all printing will stop. To cancel, press the Cancel button on printer."
I've tried turning it off and back on, taking all the cartridges out and putting them back in, etc. I printed a test page and black prints just fine, but whenever I try to print from Ctrl+P I get that error. How do I solve this problem?

Thank you for your updated information.
Since you are able to print from you computer and the printer isn't indicating this message, then I would recommend uninstalling the software. I will provide a HP document here to help you. (If this printer is connected by a USB cable, then please remove it from the computer.)
Next, please clean your Temp folder on your computer. I will provide a document on performing this step here.
Now, install the full feature software from the HP website here. Make sure you choose your correct operating system; Either 32 bit or 64 bit. I will also provide a HP document on Installing the Printer software; Either USB or Wireless Connection.
This should remove this error message you are receiving. Please let me know if you are still receiving the same message.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Photosmart 5510 not recognizing new black ink cartridge

My Photosmart 5510 does not recognize when I've installed a new black ink cartridge. The front panel indicates that the black ink is now full but when I print a test sheet or anything else, the black ink does not come out. I've tried (and potentially wasted) three different ink cartridges.
Any suggestions or is it just time for another (disposable) printer?

Maybe time to call HP and talk to them now.

Can I use the black ink cartridge only, & quit replacing the color cartridge when it's empty?

I have an HP Officejet 6210 all in one printer that takes color ink (#95) and black ink (#94). I only want to print in black and white. The color cartridges are more expensive and since I don't want to use them, I don't want to replace it. Can I have the printer bypass the color cartridge (and the notifications that come with an emply cartridge) so it will allow me to use the black cartridge (#94) only and let the #95 sit there empty? (ie it tries to print from there and I get the blank sheets...want to default it to the black ink cartridge 100% of time.) I waste too much money on ink and wish to use the cheaper cartridge (#94) always.

Can't agree more. HP's strategy of getting more sells of its cartrige is notorious. It really drives consumers away. I am ditching my HP printer and getting a Brother instead.

HP 5510 wil not print in black ink after installing a new black ink cartridge

My HP 5510 printer will not print in black ink after installing an official HP black ink cartridge. I see other people have had the same problem. I have gone through all the troubleshooting suggestions.
I would like to know if anyone has been able to fix this problem. I just spend money on a new XL cartridge. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi @obxgirl,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are running into some print quality issues on your HP Photosmart 5510, you are unable to print in black ink.
I would like you to continue here: Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages, I understand you may have done some of these steps already but I need you to complete all steps in order to resolve the missing black issue you are experiencing.
Please note: There are three printhead cleaning stages. Complete all three stages if necessary. If the printhead is badly clogged, it might require another cleaning cycle. If so, wait 30 minutes after the last (third) cleaning stage to start the first stage of the cleaning process over again.
If you are still unable to print in black ink, I suspect the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge. Please let me know which Country/Region you are in as well as the product Warranty status: HP Warranty Checker
I hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks,

DeskJet 5550 won't print after installing new black ink cartridge.

I recently got a new Dell computer with Windows Vista 64-bit OS. Printer was working fine until I replaced the black ink cartridge. It printed out the check page like normal after installing the cartridge but will not print anything else now. Not even a test page. I tried pulling the cartridge out and putting it back in. Tried unplugging the plugs on the back of the printer and plugging back in. Tried turning the printer off and back on. Also tried restarting the computer. I downloaded the HP Print Diagnostic Report and it could not find any problems. Could there be a problem with the ink cartridge itself?
This question was solved.

Well first I went and bought another black ink cartridge to rule out the cartridge being the problem. That was not it. So then I unplugged the printer and cleaned it thoroughly and plugged it back in. Still didn't work. So I went into the properties on my printer and started messing with the settings. FINALLY I FIXED IT! I clicked on the Advanced Tab and then clicked on Print Processor. I then changed it to WinPrint and retried the Print Test Page on the General Tab and it worked! Woo Hoo!

No, the black cartridge cannot fit either mechanically or electrically in the color cartridge slot.

I have a officejet j4680 All-In-One printer. I cannot get the black ink cartridge to stay in place

The black ink cartridge will not stay in place it keeps popping out when I place the color ink cartridge first. When I take the color cartridge out and put the black ink cartridge in it stays.
Is there a trick to replacing the black ink cartridge?

Make sure it is a genuine HP cartridge. Take it out and clean the contact on the cartridge and in the printer. Try again.

Black ink cartridge not working after replacing

I replaced the black ink cartridge on my HP Photosmart 6510 because the print was getting faded. Now the black will not print. I used an original HP replacement cartridge and inserted it according to specifications. I ran a test page and all colors printed except the black so I ran a printhead clean to no avail. I wet a paper towel and touched it to the ink and it is not dried up. Help!

It is definitely a hardware problem then. Try the steps in the document below. If that doesn't work, you will need to contact tech support. If you are still in warranty, HP may replace the printer at no cost to you. I'll link the information to get in touch with them below. The link will take you to a form to fill out. Once you fill it out and it is processed, it will give you the printers warranty information, a case number, and the phone number to call.

Black Ink Cartridge not working HP Photosmart 5510 series

I replaced my black ink cartridge in my HP Photosmart 5510 series printer and it doesn't print. I don't know how long I had the cartridge, so I went and bought a brand new cartridge and it still won't print. I did everything the help menu said and it still doesn't print. I cleaned print head and copper on both the cartridge and print head, I did an automatic cartridge clean and nothing is working. The printer recognizes that the cartridge is full---there are no error messages---but it won't print. I also replaced the three color cartridges and they print fine, but the black doesn't. Any help would be appreciated. My printer is fairly new, I haven't done a lot of printing with it and it was printing untill the black ran out and I had to replace the cartridge.

Hi, please see links below on cartridge changes

I can't get the yahoo messenger app to work on my phone, all it does is show is "connecting" and I appear on-line to my contacts.

I can not get the yahoo messenger app to work on my iphone.

Same problem here!
I'm using the latest in Chrome, Firefox, and IE 8, regular and compatibility mode. This is extremely frustrating, one of the primary reasons I bought this printer was for the mobile/eprint functions.
