Life and Cost of Photosmart D110a Printer Black cartridge

With my new photosmart came a black ink cartridge that printed probably less than 100 pages, then I discovered the cost of the cartridges if you get them from HP and am wondering where one might get them at a reasonable price. At the HP price they ar not competitive with a vall point pen.

Since word and pictures, and even pdf prints fine, that means the printer is not the problem.
I would try a different browser, and see if the problem goes with the browser or is with the web site. If you are using IE or chrome, try Firefox.

[HP Photosmart D110a] Printer won't connect to network

Printer: HP Photosmart D110a
Operating system: Mac OSX 10.6.8
I'm living in a dorm room and trying to wirelessly connect my printer to my computer. I can't connect my printer to my university's network because it's protected. Instead I've been connecting to my printer's SSID network. I go into Settings --> Wireless --> Wireless Settings --> Wireless Setup Wizard --> the printer scans for routers, and then the SSID name comes up in a list underneath my university's closed network. It's called HPD110a.7809C6.
I connect to it, it says it's connected, but then the Wireless light keeps flashing blue. I go back to the Wireless tab and it shows that it's connecting, connecting, connecting... and then there's no connection.
My printer was working a little while ago. It's been tempermental and has occasionally worked. But since the last time my roommate used it and turned it off, it's refused to connect to that SSID network and has thus refused to work. I think I solved the connectivity issue I had before by connecting it to the SSID network, but now it won't connect.
Things I've tried to combat this issue:
Restarted the printer, both by turning it off and turning it on manually, as well as pulling the plug out of the back while it was on (I've read in my search for an answer for this problem that doing that can help some issues?) and unplugging it while it was off and then restarting it
Continuously tried to reconnect to the SSID network
Tried to enter the printer's IP in my internet browser's address bar; nothing came up, since it isn't connected
Turned off the wireless in the Wireless Settings menu, then turned it back on a half hour later, then waited to see if it'd reconnect
Reset printer drivers
Updated my ePrint software and installed all availible HP product updates
I've printed out the Network Test multiple times, and each time it's said everything passes, but that I've had numerous disconnects and that the connection is low
I even moved a music player that was near my printer, thinking that maybe the metal was messing up the connection somehow (last resort)
Changed the empty ink cartridge (last resort)
I haven't tried restarting my computer, but I don't think that's what the problem is. My roommate's computer can't connect to the printer either (she's running OSX 10.8).
I have the printer in my Printer list twice in two seperate ways: One version is connected through the IP address, and the other is an option that appeared once while I was connected to the SSID network and just became a new printer. That one includes the scan option, but the first one doesn't. When I try to print something, the first printer says "Network host [IP ADDRESS] is busy.. will retry in 5/10/20/etc seconds..." and the second printer says "Printer offline."
The same thing happens with both whether I've gone into my Airport settings in the upper right and connected to the printer as a Device or not. It still shows my printer as a Device that I connect to, even though the printer itself says it's offline.
Additional informatiom:
I don't have a USB cable for my printer, so I haven't tried that yet.
At one point during all the re-setting and restarting, I saw the printer's IP address appear in the Wireless menu as the connected network, but it still wouldn't print at that time.
That's all the information I can think of in relation to this issue; if anyone needs to know anything else, let me know. Hopefully it's enough, and hopefully someone will have the answer to my problem.
Sorry if anything is confusing or frantic; I've been dealing with this for a few days now, and I've searched all the help forums I could and looked through as many HP documents as possible, but nothing has changed the situation. This is basically my last hope.

After just switching from Cable to FIOS, I had to get my HP C4580 wireless printer back online too.
What was important was that the Printer settings knew about the IP and port changes that are impacted from the new network and router from Verizon. How to do this is in your HP printer network setup manual and handled by their driver when its installed on the PC.
If all fails, try hooking up to your printer via an USB cable and start from there. Make sure everything works wired before trying again from a wireless setup. Youll end up with two printers in your Windows Printer choices, one for USB and one for Wireless, but thats no big deal.

Photosmart d110a printer not found

photosmart d110a on a mac with os lion via wireless connection
The printer had been working fine until today. We updated to LION in December but printed fine until today...
I went to support for help. So I went and downloaded latest software and drivers on computer and even used a USB cable so I could check for firmware updates on the printer itself; it said it had latest updates already.
So I go to the HP Installer download (from what was downloaded from updates) and commence to update and configure the printer. My mac can't find the printer still so I use a USB cable to connect them (following directions as I am prompted). Message says 'software is successfully installed. You are now ready to set up your device and software.' I disconnect USB cable.
I click continue and my device is not listed. I even go back to HP site and follow instructions on how to enter the IP manually and still it will not connect.
So I plug the USB back in to mac and it shows my device. I click configure...says it is compatible with wireless networks and I check off box that says "configure your device for a wireless netwk".
Next window says 'application has detected your device is currently connected to the following wireless netwk..." I confirm the wireless settings as correct and say to keep the settings and click continue.
Next window says 'HP device is now configured correctly' and the IP address listed matches the one on my wireless netwk test print pages that I ran and printed earlier. (I turned off printer twice and reran the wireless netwk test and it prints out 'congratulations on successful setup of your wireless printer', shows 'excellent' signal quality and the same info each time...same IP address, etc) **Bottom of this window says "IMPORTANT: please disconnect the USB cable connected to your device now." So I do and click continue.
POP UP says 'device not found on netwk'...'wireless netwk settings were successfully downloaded to your device. However, your Mac was unable to locate the device on the netwk. Please make sure that : Mac is connected to device wired or wireless, device is connected to wireless netwk....'
Not sure if this is worth noting but while the printer is connected via USB, it will print.
Please help! I am sooo confused!!!

Hi MiltonLafer,
Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand you cannot install your HP Photosmart D110a with Windows 7. I am happy to help you! I have a couple of questions for you:
How is your printer connected? Wireless or USB?
Are you using the CD for the install or the online download?
If you are using the CD, I would recommend to try the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows instead, to see if that works.
Hope this helps you, and have a great day!

Printing cards and labels on Photosmart C4580 printer

I couldn't find my particular problem using the search so I'm hoping for some answers here. I have a Photosmart C4580 printer connected to a Toshiba laptop running Vista with all the current updates. My problem is that I can't seem to get it to print on business card stock or addrress label stock. Here's the issue:
I use Word to create business cards to print onto business card stock. The instructions that came with the card stock say to do a test page on regular paper first to verify placement, which I do - everything looks perfect so I put a page of card stock in the feeder. The printer grabs the page and prints with the image offset towards the top of the page by about 1/4" so that the top of the card is above the edge of the cards. As the cards are repeated down the page, it shifts down slightly so that by the time it gets to the bottom of the page it's almost on the card, but still overlaps the top edge slightly. Printing onto regular paper works perfectly every time.
A similar thing happens printing address labels - again using Word to create the labels for either Avery 5267 or Avery 8161 label stock. On regular paper everything looks perfect, but feed a sheet of label stock in and the text is offest toward the top of the page. The last time I needed labels I was able to get it to print properly by printing one label at a time, then refeeding the page and printing the next one, then repeating until each label on the page was printed. When you're printing several pages of labels that takes a lot of time!
Is there something I need to do to get this printer to print cards and labels?

@ deblois 1089 - I will need a little more information to help out. What are the specifications of the labels? Do you have the measurements and the weight of the paper type? Thanks

Printing problems using a macbook pro and an hp photosmart 309g printer

I am using a macbook pro with lion 10.7.4. I have been printing on a wireless hp photosmart 309g printer and all of a sudden, on 90% or more of what I try and print, every once in a while a line wil print but the rest is faded or you might say smeared. I have been having it for over a year (the printer) and it has worked just fine with my macbook pro. Could someone please tell me if they have had this problem. It is not my ink, I uninstalled the printer and reinstalled it....... PLEASE HELP ME.

You can try resetting the printing system. Just secondary click below the list of printers in the white space, when you are in print and scan preferences.

How do you connect Airport Extreme and share HP Photosmart 3210 Printer?

Hello,
I have a Mac and PC Network composed of:
iMac 24'' Leopard 10.5.2 (main computer)
2 PC Fujitsu Pentium 4 on Windows XP
2 PC HP Pentium 4 on Windows XP
my network/connections are done via Airport Extreme and 2 hubs (other devices connected to the network like Wii, XBox etc.)
I am trying to share my HP Photosmart 3210 using the USB connector on Airport Extreme but I am experiencing strange problems while printing from the iMac. I can print an e-mail or a "light" document however if I want to print a Mac powerpoint (Mac office) largest document, the problem starts after the second or 3rd page, the printer goes on pause at the middle of the page and the interface indicates "problem communicating with the printer" or something like that.....unique possibility is to turn the printer off and start again but the problem persists. However, it seems that the printer works ok from the PC's.
I have tried to install the latest versin of the HP driver on my iMac but while configuring, the printer doesn't appear....I have checked on the printer settings and the IP address is 0.0.0.0.
I am now thinking about connecting the Printer via one of the Ethernet port on Airport Extreme.
Questions:
1. Any help on the above ? Any advice ?
2. Is it normal to have no IP address on the printer when connected via USB on Airport Extreme ?
3. Why HP config doesn't recognize the printer on the network ?
4. Why does it work from the PCs and not from the iMac and why does it print light documents and not big ones ? Is this a memory7buffer problem on the printer ? What can I do if this is the case ?
5. On the Airport Extreme Utility, do I need to share the printer via "Bonjour"?
6. I am willing to plug an extrenal HD on the Airport Express USB port. Is it possible to put first a multi USB port on the Airport Extreme USB or is it going to cause problems ?
Thanks a lot for your help.
P.

NCBob, Welcome to the discussion area!
If I understand correctly you are replacing the Linksys. It should be a simple replacement. Connect the cable modem to the WAN port on the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS). Connect your Ethernet devices (including the switch) to the AEBS LAN ports.

I am using Lightroom and a HP Photosmart 7520 Printer. My photos when printed look pitiful. Can someone walk me through the settings please!

Lightroom 4 is the version

Describe pitiful.
Is your monitor calibrated?
Does your printer use paper profiles? If it does, do you know how to use them?
Did this just start happening?
What is your operating system?
How much RAM do you have?

PHOTOSMART 7520 PRINTER SETUP CARTRIDGE

iI mistakenly trashed the 564 setup cartridge..printer will not function without this...is there a substitute cartridge that I can use???

Had you done the initial setup of the printer? If so you can use standard cartridges available at the store. If the cartridges were misplaced before the printer was set up you will need to contact HP for replacement setup cartridges, these are not available in stores.

Photosmart C4200 Printer - Ink Cartridges

Hi all,
Perhaps a dumb question but I wanted to check. I want to buy new ink cartridges for my Photosmart C4200. I have usually bought the standard 350/351 cartridges but was wondering if I can buy the 350XL & 351XL ones instead? Will they fit?
Many thanks in advance!
Darren

Thanks, but I tried both of those with no success. Amazon.com has been helpful.

Photosmart 3210 only prints black and white??

Hi everyone,
I have an HP Photosmart 3210 that I just installed the lastest HP drivers onto my up to date macbook. Once finishing the install and completing the setup, I can only print in black and white / grey scale. Is this driver issue? Has anyone seen this before and can it be fixed?
Thanks!

Yes, this is a color printer and has 5 color cartridges and 1 black. All of them are full except for one which happens to be magenta I believe. Anyway this printer works fine with a Windows XP desktop and prints in color. I'm not sure if it's a driver issue or the fact it is connected to an Airport Express.
As a test I hooked the macbook directly to the printer by a usb cable and it still prints black and white only. I checked the settings and see nothing defaulting to print black and white. Also, now that I have this hooked up to the airport, now the Windows XP box will only print in black and white. This is really weird and think it's either an OS X issue or HP mac printer dirver issue.
Any other ideas?

Photosmart 6515 doesn't print black ink after installing new HP cartridges

I have read multiple topics on this very issue. I have followed all recommendations posted by the support staff responding. It started out as printing the black in streaks. Multiple system print head cleanings did not work. Now all of the sudden, there is no black printing. Ensured the print cartridge were vented properly, ran the clean function approximately 6 times. Checked warranty and of course it's expired. I would really like to get this resolved. Tired of buying a disposable printer every 2 years.
I live in southeastern Virginia.

I am having the same problems with the photosmart 6515. Put in new cartridge and now will no longer print black. Tried everything suggested. Nothing works. I am frustrated and disappointed in this product.
BTW - I live in the U.S., in Virginia ... and I am a lawyer and am thinking seriously of a class action lawsuit after seeing how many hundreds of people are having this SAME problem with no solution from HP.

.HP Photosmart 5514 Will not print black

I changed my black ink cartridge in my HP Photosmart 5514 (product number CQ183A, serial # {Private Information Removed}) and now it will not print black. The colors work fine, just no black. I have cleaned the print heads, done the secondary clean, tried page allignment, I have turned it off and restared it. I have plugged it into a new outlet, I cleaned the head of the cartridge and the printer. Nothing has worked. Please help me. The printer ran out of ink, I bought a new cartridge, I put it in, that is all I did to it. I have a "genuine HP black ink cartridge 564". It is not a refilled, refurbished, used, ect. ink, it's brand new.
This question was solved.

Hi,
Tried all the items in the "Solution" link, but no dice. Will not print in black, will not copy in black, out of warranty, tried two new HP black cartridges, still no luck. Have used 1/2 of my new color cartridges up in printhead cleaning. Anyone have other ideas or a different path to success?

Photosmart 5200 won't print black ink

Hi there, I purchased the printer just over a year ago. It hasn't been used much at all. For the last few months I have continuously changed the black ink cartridge as it is saying it is empty or low and it still won't print black. The colour functions fine. I have tried all the settings options of cleaning and aligning and it doesn't make any difference. I only print via air print from iPhone and iPad, and the documents sent are extremely basic word docs. The printer is in perfect condition and I am out of warranty. Please can you advise how to fix as I rely on the printer for my invoices! Thanks

Since you have replaced Black ink cartridges and tried performing Clean Printhead and issue still exists, i'd suggest you to call HP Tech Support for further assistance.

HP 6510 not printing black ink

I bought a new black ink cartridge a few weeks ago, installed it, but I hadn't had a chance to print anything until tonight. It worked before I installed the new cartridge, and now it doesn't print black ink. (It is an HP cartridge) I have done all of the test and whatever and the colors work fine, but the black is not working. I tried a hard reboot, and still nothing. Any ideas on what it could be?
