My printer is Hp printer 932C it will only print in black and white not color

my printer is Hp printer 932C it will only print in black and white not color I got a new color cartage nothing still only printing in back and whit what can i do

There are a few things to check:
Make sure the blue tape has been removed from the nozzle plate.
Print a diagnostic page as shown in method 4 here. Does this page print color? If so the issue may be your driver settings. Check for a "Print in grayscale" setting and uncheck this box.

PRINTER C7280, NEW CARTRIDGE BUT PRINTER DOES NOT RECOGNISE NEW LEVEL, LEVEL/GAUGE STAYS 0

I HAVE C7280 PRINTER ALL IN ONE, WITH 363 CARTRIDGES. THE COLOR 363 LIGHT CYAN HAS BEEN REPLACED, BUT LEVEL OF NEW CARTRIDGE STAYS 0. BOUGHT AGAIN A NEW ONE, BUT PROBLEMS STAYS. DID CLEANING OF THE HEADS AND ALIGN PRINTER, BUT PROBLEM STAYS. HOW CAN I SOLVE THIS?

Hi
Are you using the control panel or solution centre to check the levels?
Are you still able to print?
Thanks, Ciara
Step one: Check ink levels
NOTE:
The HP All-in-One can only detect the ink levels for genuine HP ink. The ink levels in ink cartridges that are refilled or have been used in other devices might not register accurately.Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of different ways, including in the initialization process, which prepares the device and cartridges for printing, and in printhead servicing, which keeps print nozzles clear and ink flowing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after it is used.
To check the ink levels from the control panel:
Press Setup .
Press the down arrow ( ) to highlight Tools, and then press OK.
Press the down arrow ( ) to highlight Display Ink Gauge, and then press OK.
Press any button to return to the Tools menu.
To check the ink levels from the HP Photosmart Software:
In the HP Solution Center, click Settings , point to Print Settings, and then click Printer Toolbox .
NOTE:
You can also open the Printer Toolbox from the Print Properties dialog box. In the Print Properties dialog box, click the Services tab, and then click Service this device .
Click the Estimated Ink Level tab. The estimated ink levels for the ink cartridges will appear.

Remote laptop won't print to new HP4622 wireless printer

My new HP 4622 won't print from wife's laptop (Compaq Presario CQ-60-224NR w/ Windows Vista) in another part of the house on my home Centurylink DSL network with very good connectivity. I have the printer installed at my desktop (Gateway Microsoft XP SP3) and it prints fine from the desktop. Does the printer software also need to be installed on the laptop? I sent a .jpg file to the printer from the laptop and it printed one line of unicode? code per page until I cancelled the job from the print queue. I have gone thru the installation guide a couple of times and nothing is fixed. Test results say that everything passed and install is successful. I downloaded and tried the print doctor wizard and it says no problems found. I have McAfee total protection running, could there be a firewall problem? I'm not sure about enabling ports or that sort of thing. I dumped a perfectly good Lexmark X7170 all-in-one because it wasn't wireless and we couldn't get it configured to print peer-to-peer. Now I have a new wireless printer and con't get to print remotely either. Hope you can help. Let me know if you need more info. Thanks.

Hi Ken,
I would recommend giving the printer a static IP address for the wireless connection (not USB):
- Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
- Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
- Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
- On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). If you do not know the range, change the last set of numbers (those after the last '.') to 250
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- Enter your router's IP (on the Network Config Page) for the gateway.
- Enter 8.8.8.8 for the first DNS and 8.8.4.4 for the second DNS. This is Google DNS. You can choose another external DNS if you wish.
- Click 'Apply'.
Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
After this you will have delete and re-add the printer on your computer. Do it this way:
0. Go to Start > Control Panel > Devices & Printers and delete all instances of the printer.
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and connected to your network. Verify that you can access the printer's internal web page by browsing to its IP address before continuing. Get its IP from a Network Test printed from the front panel of the printer.
2. Click >> Start >> Control panel >> Devices & Printers.
3. Click the Add a printer
4. Select Local printer
5. Select Create a new port and select Standard TCP/IP Port and click Next button.
6. Under Device type, select TCP/IP Device. Under Hostname or IP address, enter the printer's IP address. Click Next.
7. Select Hewlett-Packard from the list of manufacturers and select and select your printer model. Click Next.
If your printer model was not listed, then select Have Disk, browse the HP CD that came with your printer and select the first file that starts with hp and ends with inf. Click Open then OK. Select your printer model. Click Next.
8. If you are asked, use the currently installed driver.
9. It will ask for the Printer name -- enter a new name or use the existing one. This will be the name of the printer that you select from other applications.
10. You may be asked to share the printer. Choose NO.
11. The Print Test Page box appears. Go ahead and print it.
12. Click Finish.
If you're still experiencing issues try changing the channel on your router to 11 and the encyption to WPA.

Hello there! Welcome to the forums @Chinadoll702
I read your post about the printing issues you've been experiencing on your Mac running 10.6 and your Officejet 6700. I have a few ideas in mind to get started and let me know the results and we will take it from there.
Update the Firmware on the printer: Getting the Latest Firmware and Product Updates
Power reset the printer and make sure the printer is plugged in directly to the wall outlet, avoiding power bars and surge protectors. This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help greatly.
Press the Power button to turn on the product.
With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
Make a few copies afterwards and tell me if the copies pause, cancel, do not work, etc.
Try printing from Text Edit on your Mac as well, and get back to me with the results.
Good luck

My non retina macbook pro mid 2012 will read the display its connected to but does not display anything at all

Hi there,
I have a macbook pro mid 2012 non retina display and i tried using an external display for it. I hooked it up and the screen blacked out and turned back on like normal and the computer itself was reading that the display was there. The only problem is that on the display itself there is no image of the macbook being displayed. im using a thunderbolt to vga connector and all the connection check out the only problem is the display. the display works on my other macbook that i have just fine i dont understand why it wouldnt work on this new one. Keep in mind i have had this computer for only 5 days.
Thanks in Advance

Device is not being displayed in itunes and restore is not proceeding

I was upgrading my Ipod software but after few minutes it turned off automatically i tried to turn it on but it doesn't work so i thought i should try the restore and than my ipod showed the restore sign 'cable pointing itunes' but when i connected it to my windows>itunes and opened devices it didn't detect my ipod...... after a few minutes restore sign turned off and apple sign showed and disappeared.....i even followed theses procedureshttp://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 but none of these worked the apple sing is still showing and disappearing and when i try to restore itunes donot detect the ipod.

Try the remaining items of:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Since updating to the new version the work web page that i use will only print 2 pages even if there are more. I can not get it to print all the pages in the document.

for instance....I have a documents that has 6 pages, I can scroll down and see all the pages but when i hit the print button it will only print 2 pages. I tried to change it in the setting part but there is no feature that allows you to change it.

For many years, Firefox has problems printing when some style rules are used. However, I am not aware of any changes for the worse in Fx4 (at least, until now I wasn't aware of any).
A couple of thoughts:
(1) Is it possible you were using an add-on in Fx3.6 that fixed this problem, but the add-on was disabled during the upgrade because it wasn't compatible? (Sometimes that can be fixed with a little hack.)
(2) Are there any obvious settings differences that could be affecting printing, such as fonts, margins, or shrink-to-fit/percentage?
(3) Does the workaround of selecting the entire page (Ctrl+a) and then choosing Selection under Print range in the Print dialog work? Unfortunately, this can slice through lines and images, but it often works around problems with style rules.
In the interest of saving paper, it often is useful to experiment with a PDF printer driver. If you don't have pdfFactory, you can install a trial version for testing: it lets you view the results without first having to save the file. (If you save with the trial version, there is a footer to that effect.)
(4) Is it an HTML5 problem? You can toggle the HTML5 parser off, but this is a global setting, not site-specific. If you are familiar with about:config, filter on html5 and double click '''html5.parser.enable''' to toggle its value from true to false. This helps for some sites, but has no effect on others.

Hp running windows 8 will not print black on printer's

I have a hp running windows 8 and two different brand printers both will not print in black when hooked up to this computer. One is a hp photosmart and the other a lexmark. Both with cleaned heads and full cartridges. Both will scan using black or test page will print black, but will only print in color from the computer. If i change black text to blue or another color it prints but not black. My best guess is some setting on the computer thats causing this seeing how two different printers will not print black on this computer but will on other computers

What is the HP Photosmart printer model?

Laser Jet Pro CM1415fnw color will not print from eprint

Laser Jet Pro CM1415fnw color printer will print from laptop but not from email. Signal on printer has strong internet connection and so does computer. I tried to send a pic with my phone but it did not print.

I will need a little more info in order to help out. If you send the printer an ePrint of a text document, will it print that plan document? Also, if the picture that you are sending is less than 100 DPI (dot per inch) the printer will not print that because of the quality. You can send the picture to the computer, open it and the right click on it and look under “properties” and it will give you the DPI information. It is labeled vertical and horizontal resolution. Lastly, what type of phone do you have? What email client are you using to send the picture to the printer?

Photosmart 7525 not printing in color

photosmart 7525 won't print in color .
No matter what device I'm sending from or method I use to send to printer, the print only comes out in black and white.

Hello Pneumatic,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I see that you Photosmart 7525 will only print black and white images. Would it be possible to upload an image of this printing result?
Also, if you print a Printer Quality Report, will color print? Touch Setup>Tools> Printer Quality Report. Could you also upload an image of that report too?
