HP Photosmart C6200 Series Blue Inks Not Working

Hi all,
I have an HP Photosmart c6200 series printer and the blue ink cartridges are not working. I've read similar problems about black ink cartridges, but on different printers so I am looking for some help here.
All of my ink cartridges recently expired, so I went to a professional store and had them emptied and refilled. I put all of the ink cartridges back in the printer and did a test - I noticed the blue inks were not working. From there, I have tried removing them/reinserting them, looking for visible chunks and running printhead cleans from the printer. So far nothing is working.
I've printed out a diagnostics page and the boxes that should have the blue inks show up completely empty, not just streaky. I have followed all instructions from the diagnostics page.
If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated. I do not think my printer is under warranty anymore.

Hi JessicaBruzzese,
I understand you have a Photosmart C6200 printer that is not printing any blue after refilling the cartridges. I'm sorry to hear this, but I will do my best to help.
It sounds to me like the refilled ink may not be able to make it out of the cartridge. I will suggest that you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet and follow this Missing, Faded, or Dull Colors document. If it's still not working after that, you can also try cleaning the cartridge contacts.
If the blue continues not to print, you may have to purchase another HP cartridge.
Hope this helps, have a great day!!

  • Compaq Presario F767NR caps lock,scroll,touch pad blue light not working

    Hi,
    I have a Compaq Presario F767NR. It downgrade it to xp. All my drivers are ok. But caps lock,scroll,touch pad blue light not working though its function is ok.
    I think led is ok. I find that for the scroll lock when i press fn+num lk then the blue light works fine.

    I have the same problem and I think it started when I downloaded the SP2 for the Windows Vista. So probably it is not a problem of the laptop. I have an HP Pavilion dv9500 notebook PC.

  • HP Photosmart 6510 Black ink not working correctly.

    Replaced all the ink cartridges and the black one does not work properly. It prints greyish blue during the printer head cleaning. I've tried all the troubleshooting procedures that others have done multiple times.
    I also got an error "0xc19a0013" today after I plugged the printer back in.
    It is not currently under warranty. Please advise!
    THANKS!

    Hello jeremydraul,
    Welcome to the HP Forums! I hope you enjoy your stay here.
    I understand the black ink is not printing properly and now you're receiving a message "0xc19a0013". I will do my best to assist you! Please make sure this printer is plugged into a direct wall, not a surge protector.
    Please follow this HP document on 'Ink System Failure' or a '0x...' or a 'C2...' Error Message Displays on the Front Panel.
    Let me know if this document resolves your issue or not.

  • Blank ink not working hp6510

    Same problem as others...black ink stopped working...ordered two new cartridges...put them in today...still not working...tried the suggestions...clean print head extra.   Please help...this is very frustrating...Thank you.  HP 6510

    Hello nanybird,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are running into some print quality issues on your HP Photosmart 6510, you are unable to print in black ink after replacing the cartridge.
    Were you able to complete ALL steps listed 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.

     I just got an hp pavilion 500 series computer and put in my 680 watt power supply (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9S​IA5751TC9946&nm_mc=TEMC-RMA-Approvel&cm_mmc=TEMC-R​... This is the power supply i have)  from my old computer but my gtx 650 will not work, my monitor has a no input if i have it plugged into the graphic card but works if i have it in the integrated graphic slot. The computer will also beep 6 times in a row stop then repeat the beeps 5 times if i have the 6 pin connector plugged into the graphics card. The gtx 650 works just fine in my other computer with this same power supply.

  • HP Officejet 4630 e-All-in-One Printer Black Ink not Working

    My HP Officejet 4630 e-All-in-One does not print black ink but the color ink is working perfectly fine even though the ink status shows that there is black ink left. After I've changed a new black ink cartridge, it will start to work again but after one day it stop printing black ink again. I've only printed a page the previous day and the ink status shows that there's black ink left in it (close to full). I've tried the methods stated here (http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03882718&cc=sg&dlc=en&lc=en&product=5305051) but the black ink still doesn't work. So how can I solve this problem??

  • Time series functions are not working for fragmented logical table sources?

    If i remove that fragmented logical table sources, then its working fine.
    if any body know the reason, please let me know.
    thanks and regards,
    krishna

    Hi,
    is because the time series function are not supported for the framentation content, see the content of the oracle support:
    The error occurs due to the fact the fragmented data sources are used on some Time series measures. Time series measures (i.e. AGO) are not supported on fragmented data sources.
    Confirmation is documented in the following guide - Creating and Administering the Business Model and Mapping Layer in an Oracle BI Repository > Process of Creating and Administering Dimensions
    Ago or ToDate functionality is not supported on fragmented logical table sources. For more information, refer to “About Time Series Conversion Functions” on page 197.

  • Desk jet 4280 all in one - black ink not working

    I have a new blank ink cartridge with full ink level. Black photocopying does not work but colour does. I have tried resetting and restarting printer and removing and reinserting cartridge.
    Black printing from computer does not work either.
    Any suggestions? Thanks so much!

    Hi @Banana65 
    I would like to help you with the your black print quality. Please use the following document to troubleshoot the issue; Faded, Missing, or Dull Colors in Printouts.
    If the issue remains unresolved after following all of the steps in the link above, I recommend contacting HP.
    Don't hesitate to call, although the printer may be out of warranty, the cartridges could be in warranty; therefore, there wouldn't likely be a fee for the phone support. HP will, at HP's option, either replace products under warranty that prove to be defective or refund the purchase price.
    They could even determine after troubleshooting that it is a problem with the printer, in which case they may offer you a discount on a newer model.
    The number to call HP is 1-800-474-6836 for Canada and US, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.
    To find the “Warranty Ends” date, look in the following table for the date's location on each product. The date follows the YYYY/MM/DD or YYYY/MM format, where YYYY indicates the year, MM indicates the month, and DD indicates the day.
    I hope this helps.

  • D4260 Printer-Co​lour Ink not Working

    My last colour cartridge was working fine then one day it just stopped and I have flashing light, i tried getting it cleaned, troubleshotting with my computer and it still didtn work. I had to delete the driver and then reinstall it in order to get the black ink to work. 
    I bought a new colour cartridge and installed it and now nothing prints in colour. I tried looking at the properties of the printer and everything is selected for it to print in colour, but instead of colour it prints in various shades of grey. When I look at the print preview, it shows that it will print in colour but it never does. 
    Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
    Will I have to delete the driver AGAIN and reinstall it? This is getting annoying!
    Any help is much appreciated!

    Hey @mbonns ,
    Thank you for joining us on the HP Forums today, hope you enjoy your time with us!
    I understand you are getting printouts that are not in color even though you select color printing, see a print preview in color and prepare the document in color.
    Are you getting this error across all different programs?
    Do other documents print this way?
    Can you inspect the cartridges and make sure that they are not damaged?
    Look forward to hearing back from you. Have a nice day.

  • Black ink not working after my computer did an update (2 new cartridges put in)

    Black ink stopped working suddenly.  Tried 2 new cartridges and they did not work.  Since the day before their was an automatic 'updates' on my computer I thought it was that, but making copies doesn't work either.  I already cleaned the print heads with still not even a hint of black ink coming out.
    Usually, when the ink gets low it will be light at first or streaky . . . not just none at all.  Could the update been a problem?

    The update is likely not related.  I would suggest going through the troubleshooting steps in the document here.   Be sure especially to check the vents as shown in solution six.  If the steps there do not resolve the issue soaking the printhead as shown in the post here may help.

  • Blue Yeti not working on Mavericks

    Is there any help to get the blue yeti microphone working?
    Mavericks doesn't recognize the microphone.
    Help.

    Hey ther Tim,
    It sounds like after having updated to Mac OS X 10.9, you are no longer able to use your USB microphone.
    I found this article for you to help troubleshoot what may be happening, named:
    OS X Mavericks: Check your device’s USB connection
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14144
    If a USB device isn’t working properly, it might not be properly connected to your computer.
    If your computer has more than one USB port, switch the device’s cable to another port. If you still can’t use the device, contact the manufacturer for more information.If you can use the device after switching ports, connect another device to the first port. If you can’t use this device, shut down the computer and unplug it from the power outlet. Wait about a minute, then plug it into the power outlet and start up your computer. If you still can’t use a device with the port, your computer may need to be serviced.Find out how to service or repair your Mac
    If the device is connected to a USB hub, make sure the device and the hub are the same speed. For example, connect a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed device to a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed hub.
    If more than one device is connected to the USB port, disconnect all other devices. Connect a keyboard and mouse to another USB port. Do not use USB hubs or extension cords.If you can use your device now, there may be a problem with one of the other devices. Try reconnecting the other devices, one by one, to your computer. When you find the device causing the problem, review its documentation for further troubleshooting steps.

  • Blue Microphone not working in Z87-G45 Mobo.

    Okay, to be honest I have tried every fix. Been to every page. Contacted Blue to ask for advice. I have nothing to work on, they sent me to you guys saying it's a driver that doesn't work with the microphone. I have put up with this problem for long enough. It recognizes it is plugged in. It doesn't say blue snowball weirdly in the device manager. Not on the recording tab.
    The mic works on my windows 8.1 laptop but not my windows 8.1 PC
    I have literally tried everything... please help

    Sorry I haven't heard Blue Snowball before, but now I do.
    Did you mean the PC recognizes it is plugged in, but didn't show in the device manager and recording tab?
    "Not working" means can't not record voice ,or the PC just can't recognize it as a microphone?
    Have you tried the USB port of rear panel and front panel?
    Just in case,
    Your serial number does higher than 76-065000, right?
    Because it use USB to connect, have you also installed the USB driver? (I think it is including in the chipset driver)
    The latest BIOS ver. 1.9 mention that it is improved USB device compatibility, are you already using this version?
