Magenta not printing on new genuine HP cartridge (already replaced it twice)

Magenta is printing sporadicly. I clean the head, align it - starts to print a bit - but when i print a document - its not there. Have already tried this with two cartridges - same issue. So I clean again - starts again but still has missing bands. But yet again by the time i get to the document - stops.
Have cleaned the heads multiple times, aligned them as well. Already gone through the link on D110 cartrige issues (http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=c02002581).
Even tried to print from mac vs windows
Any suggestions?

Officejet 6100 - H611a Will not print in grayscale when color cartridge is depleted.

The title says it all. - Windows 7 64-bit
Officejet 6100 - H611a Will not print in grayscale when color cartridge is depleted!
Even though the documentation that came with the printer says it will. After 2+ hours on the phone with HP support over the course of 2 days, I have been informed that printer WILL NOT print in black ink only if a color cartridge is empty.
I thought anyone who purchases this model should know the documents included lie.
From page 31 of the Officejet 6100 user manual: "If a color cartridge is depleted, the printer will print in grayscale using the black cartridge." LIES!
The HP Help Programs says the same thing.
I have hard-reset the printer, removed and reinserted all the cartridges, set the options to "black ink only," Nothing worked. 3 HP reps all said the same thing, "You have to get a new magenta cartridge."
Will be retuning for a refund as I purchased this model SPECIFICALLY because the manual said it would print the grayscale without color ink present.
Have had 4 HP printers over the years, never even considered buying anything except HP. This will be my last HP printer. Extremely disappointed by HP's deception.

Sorry the printer did not perform as expected. I have escalated this in an effort to get this to the right people.

CS5 will not print on new Epson 3880, message paper out or paper not loaded correctly

CS5 will not print on new Epson 3880, message paper out or paper not loaded correctly

In the Print dialog box, click Print Settings and verify the Paper Size you chose. This is important because the 3880 has three paper feeds (auto sheet feeder, rear manual feed, front manual feed). And for each major paper size you have to choose not only the size but also the correct feed. For example, if you want US Letter, choose US Letter, notice that this menu expands to five more US Letter paper size options, and choose the specific US Letter paper feed you want.
If there is a mismatch between the paper size + feed combination you picked and the feed where the paper actually is, you can get the error that you're seeing. Because the Epson printer driver will look for the paper in a feed where there isn't any paper.
So if you've added US Letter paper to the automatic paper tray, in Paper Size double-check that you chose the US Letter submenu command that says just US Letter, not one of the other options like US Letter (Manual - Front).

New cartridge of Black ink not printing and new cartridges of colored inks very light

Just installed all new cartridges and ran an alignment page. The colors are very light and no black ink printed at all. Before installing the new ink the printer would not actually print anything even though the status showed the document as "printing". The color ink lights had been blinking so I changed all three of them, still could not get the printer to print anything. I unplugged the printer and my computer and after booting everything back up a Word document would only produce a blank page so I thought the black ink needed to be replaced as well. After installing everything I ran the alignment page which shows very light colors and no black. What should I do next? The cartidges are authentic HP 920 XL Black, 920 Cyan, 920 Magenta, and 920 Yellow bought in a Combo-pack from Staples.

The troubleshooting steps in the document here may help resolve black not printing on your Officejet 6000 printer. Do the steps in order. Before considering Solution 8 - Replace the Printhead you might try soaking the printhead as described in the post here.

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:

NP Officejet H470 - willl not print after new cartridge installed

Changed my black cartridge and now will not print at all. Document shows briefly in printer dialogue box but then disappears. Printer makes a noise like it wants to print but then nothing happens. Printed fine before cartridge change! Any ideas?

I bought a new unit. First thing it would not work. Pause light and start light flashed. finally after much research on HP site and elsewhere I solved it myself!
I found a part loose in the unit! Open the ink door, see a 1/8" +/- diameter rod under the print carriage, look at the right end, there is a white part that should be down and probably should click into place. Mine was up at a 45 degree angle. It went down easily, but did not truly click into the receiving hole, however it was enough that the printer worked!
The left side was down, but yours may bear checking.
HP puts you through all the testing stuff, but fails to rememder that printers are electro-MECHANICAL devices and can fail on the mechanical side.

Black not printing though new cartridge

I just replaced both black and colour cartridges. When the test page printed there was a warning symbol and the word "important". There was a printed line that couldn't be read so each time I try to align the printer, it just reprints the same thing. When I tried to print something , the black is a light faded blue and all the colour is faded. Help!

Hello
Did you resolve your issue with the printer not printing black text?
I have installed a new black toner cartridge today and have the same issue.

HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus - Magenta Not Printing

I have an HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus (A910), Model number CM756A, Serial number: [Moderator edited Serial Number] that is not printing magenta.
Firmware version: LRP1FN1231AR. Service ID 21057. IK Number 658.
Software version: 028.000.1315.000. Printer Driver version: 09.84.00.1189
The Printhead Status for all cartridges reports as "Good" in the Self Test Diagnostic Page.
I have run a Print Quality Diagnostics and in Test Pattern 2 there is no red/magenta colored block appearing.
I did not have any alert for low print quantity, however I replaced the Magenta inkcartridge with an HP Officejet 940XL new magenta ink cartridge (HP genuine) and still there is no Magenta printing.
When I open the ink cartridge holder, the printer shows HP Model: A910g, HP Ink Cartridge 940.
I have gone through this exercise several times, however the latest Magenta ink cartridge that I removed from the printer prior to replacing had the following information on it: C4908A, 2016/05/22. The newest cartridge I put in has a September 2017 expiration date (part number C4908A).
I am not getting any error messages or anything, there is just no Magenta being printed.
First - I would like to know how to fix this issue with the HP printer.
Second - is there anyway to get a refund for the ink cartridges I have had to use (and waste) trying to resolve this problem.
Thank you.

HP 6700 Installed New Genuine Ink Cartridges (XL)

Replaced the set up cartridges with new genuine HP XL cartridges purchased from Staples. Blank pages are being printed and the copies are blank. The ink levels are showing full. Any suggestions to fix the problem? Thank you HP Support Forum for any help that you can provide. I am trying to get the printer fixed prior to school starting on Monday.

I would suggest that you try out the steps that are listed in the guide below, to hopefully get the ink flowing through the printhead to print again.

ColorLaserJet 2600n Magenta not printing.

Magenta does not print at all on my Color LaserJet 2600n.
I replaced the cartridge and the new cartridge also doesn't print.
I mailed the HP Customer service and, other than an automated reply got no response.
Has anyone else had this problem and, if so, how did you fix it.
Thanks.
