HP C309g Photosmart Premium Printer - bought new printer cartridges and not printing correctly

I just replaced all 5 of the printer cartridges for the first time today. When I look at the ink levels they are all showing full but when I print it is showing the following:
Photo Black: Shows a Magenta color
Magenta: Shows Magenta
Cyan: Blank
Yellow: Blank
Black: shows black.
I tried taking out and putting in again. Also tried the clean cartridges function. Still not working correctly. Printing only black and magenta.
Please help.

I am having the same problem. The first time it happened, I just unplugged the printer and waited a few seconds and then replugged. It rebooted and work fine for a while. Now it will not scan and the reboot does not work. i have seen other posts about this same problem.

New black cartridge is not printing

I inserted new yellow and black cartridges yesterday. The yellow works but the black is not printing. I took it back to the store, got a new one, and it is still not printing.

I would suggest you Contact HP as described in the post here, even if your printer is no longer under warranty.
If you do not get the issue resolved by calling HP support please post back here with information on the country you are in.

Black ink cartridge will not print even after installing a new cartridge

my black ink cartridge is brand new and will not produce any print. The other 3 color cartridges are also new and they print fine. The set up cartridge is out of ink. Is it needed once the printer has been set up?

Hello rhergnal,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having some issues with printing in black.
Just so you are aware, you do not need to keep the starter ink cartridge once it has been used. It will not be needed again.
Please click on the following link that deals with when the Printer Prints a Blank Page or Does Not Print Black or Color Ink for the HP Photosmart Premium e-Al....
Please feel free to write me back if you have any other questions or concerns.

Hp Photosmart 1215 color cartridge will not print.

I have a photosmart 1215.
The color quit printing so I purchased a new print cartridge
hp c6578d
and that cartridge would not print.
I performed all the cleaning procedures as set forth on this site.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Did you remove the protective tape from the cartridge?
Is there any trace of color on the printed page? If not try gently blotting the nozzles on a damp tissue. Does this leave a strong stripe of cyan, magenta and yellow on the tissue? If not then you have a defective cartridge. If there are no stripes of color on the tissue then the cartridge is defective. If there are stripes of color on the tissue but no color prints on the test page or cleaning pages then the printer will likely require service.

Why won't printer acknowledge new ink cartridges

i have windows 7 (64 bit).. HP Officejet 6500 Wireless.. I can print from computer and can copy ok but i have changed all ink cartridges and the printer isn't seeing that it has new ink.. it shows all colors are out?

I think you have the wrong forum.
I'll answer anyway.
Are the new cartridges new original HP cartridges? If not they might not report ink levels correctly.

Times New Roman font will not print on HP Officejet Pro 8610

My new HP Officejet Pro 8610 will not print documents, spreadsheets, or printer test pages containing Times New Roman font (of any size). It does not put a job in the print queue. In Excel, I receive the "Generic_2_Q294552" error message. My setup: An HP Pavilion Elite computer NY809AV-ABA e9119t; running Windows 7 Enterprise SP1; HP Laserjet 5L, HP PCS 1310, and HP D4360 all print the font just fine. My new printer: HP Officejet Pro 8610, firmware revision FDP1CN1502AR, connected via USB cable. [Also connected via ethernet cable to cable modem.] What I have done so far to troubleshoot the last 3 days: Reinstalled the printer (3 times), the most recent today with an installer issued today; rebooted the printer; rebooted the computer after each significant change; updated the firmware in the printer; tried two different USB cables; tried printing the fonts in Microsoft Word 7, Microsoft Excel 7, and directly from the font file; reinstalled the Times New Roman fonts from backup; visited the forums and tried all of the solutions I could for any similar problem; tried the winprint, hpzppw71, and hpzpplhn print processors with both RAW and NT EMF 1.008 data types; found and repaired all problems I could find with any hardware and software, as well as updating all software to the latest version.

Thanks for trying to help. I am happy to report my experiments and results. Microsoft Word:I open a blank document. Type something in. Select the entire text. Change the font. When I change to some fonts (those listed on my DOES print) the document shows up in the print queue and prints. When I change to the other fonts (those listed as DOES NOT print) nothing happens. It just sits there. No messages. No crash. Nothing in the print queue. I can walk away for hours (as I have done) and come back and nothing has happened. When I change back to a DOES print font it prints. Change it back to a DOES NOT print font and it doesn't. Repeatable. Consistent. No configuration changes or installs have changed it. Microsoft Excel:I open a black spreadsheet. Type something in. Highlight the entire text. Change the font. When I change to a DOES print font it prints. When I change to a DOES NOT print font I get this: "Microsoft Office Excel Your file could not be printed due to an error on HP Officejet Pro 861 on 0. There are several possible reasons:. There may not be enough memory available. Try closing files and programs you aren't using.. If you use a network for printing, there may be a problem with the network connection or the printer driver.. There may be loose cables or a bad connection between your computer and printer.For more information about troubleshooting printing problems, chick Help. Show Help >>" when I click the Show Help >> button I get: "This error can be caused by:
General problems: The printer may be unavailable, the network may be down, the communication port to the printer may be corrupt or unavailable, a hardware error at the computer may have occurred (out of paper, paper jam, out of ink, out of toner, etc), and a language setting may need to be reset from the Regional Options control panel.
Local problems: There are several reasons for a local printer (a printer that is attached directly to your computer) to fail:
Check to make sure the printer has paper, ink, and/or toner and check the cables.
If the printer appears to be functional and a printer test by the printer itself indicates the printer is working properly, then check the cables, printer port from the computer, and configuration of the printer at the computer.
Occasionally, an application can develop a conflict with the printer driver and cause a memory leak which corrupts the printer port. If all else fails, restart the computer, recycle the power to the printer, and try printing again.
Occasionally it is even necessary to delete the printer driver and reinstall the latest version of the printer driver.
Network problems: There are various reasons for a network printer to be inaccessible: the name may have changed, it may be out of paper, out of ink, out of toner, down for maintenance, the network could be down, or a printer job previous to yours has stalled due to incorrect settings on the user's computer who last submitted a print job, or even your printer driver cannot communicate correctly with the printer. Network related printer failures are usually best handled by your local technical support.
Memory problemsn occasion, large print jobs with complex graphics or consisting of several hundred pages, which can consume large quantities of memory on the printer, may cause a problem (especially if there was an over run of memory at the printer). You may want to try reducing the amount of complex graphics in your print job, or break the print job up into smaller segments and see if that corrects your problem. It is not uncommon for a very complex graphic to have a defect or error which prevents it from printing on any printer. It may be necessary to load new or revised graphic converters or drivers in order to alleviate a problem of this type.
For more information about fixing problems related to printing, see Microsoft Windows Help and Support. (Click the Start button, and then click Help and Support.)" Excel keeps right on going. Doesn't crash. Just pops up the gray dialog box. Behind the box popped up is another box (that goes away then the dialog box is closed) saying: "Now printing page 1 of 1'Book1' on theHP Officejet Pro 861 on 0" The format of these messages does seem strange now that I look at it so carefully while trying to type EXACTLY what I see. I think I will try to shorten the name of the printer. Once again, Respectfully submitted for analysis, review, suggestions, and criticism. Tom

My hp 100 mobile printer will only print one page then quits. will not print all of the pages.

my hp 100 mobile printer will only print one page then quits. will not print all of the pages. i have rebooted, new install, and reset. still the same thing. when i look it shows that it is printing but there is nothing happing. i use this with my lap top.

Hello colt1,
Are you using Bluetooth or USB cable to connect to the printer? Did you install from the disc, or from the online program? When it sits there and doesn't print, does it eventually give error messages, lights flashing, etc.?
Thanks,

Adobe Flash 11.9.900.152: objects not showing in print preview and not printing

When I select print from Adobe Flash 11.9.900.152, objects are not showing in print preview and not printing on the printer. I have tried to print from both MS Internet Explorer and Google Chrome--neither work.
I am using:
Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pak 1
Internet Explorer 10.0.9200.16618
or
Google Chrome 31.0.1650.57 m
How do I resolve this issue?

What is it you're trying to print?

Overheating and not printing

I have two macbooks, one 1.66 ghz running 10.5 and a duo core 1.83 Ghz running 10.6. Since updating from 10.5 to 10.6 on the new one I can no longer get my Brother MFC 290c to print and the "B" bridge runs really, really freaking hot! When I try to print I get the first printer splash screen, hit print and the little MFC 290c printer status window opens up and says print job in progress and then print job complete! and nothing happens at the printer at all! what the heck is going on? the printer still works fine with the older 10.5 machine.

How can I print a whole email document and not a "screen shot" like I get in the Print Preview option.

How can I print a whole email document and not a "screen shot" like I get in the Print Preview option. I'd like to print from "file" and print" like I can on other browsers (IE, for example). When I try to print from Firefox it grabs all my info (file folders, etc.) from the left side of the page. I need just the email information, not the entire screen information. Thank you!
-Bruce

I agree; I should, but I can't :) I have an orange Firefox drop down that I go to to print, and it allows me to select "print", "print preview" and "print setup", where I can change the margins. It always defaults to a full screen shot (I use Yahoo) and does not show just the email. I don't need to print what is on the left side of the screen or anything other than the email (I can achieve these things by using file-print from IE, so I know it is doable, and I am still going into Yahoo and using their email when I do it).
Hope this helps. I'm not a fan of IE, but I really don't like the print properties I'm getting here (I'm a long time Mozilla user, but I'm losing too much info with this option and can't afford that anymore).
Thanks for the help!
