My All-In-One 6500A Plus won't print any color from Internet Explorer (v8.0).

My All-In-One 6500A Plus won't print any color from IE (v8.0).  I can print all colors from Word, PDF documents, photos, etc. - but not from ANY web page.  At first it only printed Magenta ink, now it acts as if it's printing (feeds the paper, moves the print heads across the page and sounds like it's printing) but the paper comes out blank every time.  If I change the print options to print grayscale and only use black ink, I can get a black only image of the web site.
As I said, ALL OTHER APPLICATIONS PRINT FINE.  ONLY WEB PAGES WON'T PRINT, so please don't tell me it's the ink cartridges.  ;-)

I guess it's time for me to change printer brands.  It will be a long time before I get an HP anything again!

  • HP B210 all-in-one Photosmart Plus won't print black when new black cartridge installed!!

    Ugh!! This printer is driving us insane! EVERY time we install a new black ink cartridge (HP 564) the printer decides it doesn't want to print black any more! I've tried the whole cleaning this and that they say is needed. I've aligned, reset, etc. and nothing works. What makes me mad is the printer works fine until the day we swap out the black ink. I've had this issue before but it was random luck it came back to life and we have no idea how it happened.  What can we do to fix this ANNOYI NG problem?? Thanks in advance.

  • I cannot get my HP Officejet 6500A Plus 710N to print in color. I have reinstalled the drivers..

    I cannot get my HP Officejet 6500A Plus 710N to print in color. I have reinstalled the drivers.  It used to print in color and just stopped.  I think it may be a settings issue?  I have checked the ink levels and they are all fine. When I print a diagnostic report on print qualify, the black prints well, but there is no color printing.

    Okay, I had the same problem. It's most likely your printhead. All you have to due is clean it.
    Note: I was sceptical of this approach but can fully attest to it's sound results as it restored my printer back to full functionality. Prior to this the printer only would print Black ink.
    The print head is the carriage that holds all of your ink cartridges in the printer. On the 6500A it's super easy to remove. Opent your lid like your changing your ink cartridges. Remove all of your ink cartridges. Once they're out. There is a lever on the left side of the carrier that holdes your ink cartridges. Lift it up and the print head comes right out. Net take your print head to the sink and run it under hot water aiming towards the the four cirles were the ink flows into. Keep running it under the hot water until it is coming out clear. It's okay to run it under the bottom part too infact you'll need to inorder to get it completely rinsed out. Also don't touch the computer metal strips with your hand thought you can run water over them. Once your done rinsing use a blow dryer or a can of compressed air (thats what I did) to dry every thing out. I was able to get everything dry in about 5 minutes or so. Let it sit for a few minutes and check it again for water. I recommend moving it around to get full exposure to insure it is dry. Also if you use a hair dryer try to put it on a cold setting since there ar rubber grommets the surrount the inlet ink ports you wouldn't want to melt them with the hot air etc.. Like I said I used a can of compressed air.  It's important to use a quick method of drying as mentioned otherwise mineral particles could become deposited on the unit. This won't happen with the methods as I've described because the molecules won't be able to bond since your blowint them off. Oh yeah, you'll want to place a clean peice of paper down as your blowing because at first you'll end up with a few black jet marks as your blowing. Also don't wear your favorite white shirt lol. 
    Okay once it's dry replace the print head carriage back in push the lever down install the ink cartridges. Close the lid then unplug the printer. Wait 5 seconds plug it back in then it will reboot and start its set up procedure kind of like whet you first bought the printer except you won't have to change any of your network or setup setting since they are saved in memory. Also be patient about the set up procedure it seemed very slow for me. Once it finishes you will be prompted to run the printer alignment process. Run the alignment process and you should be all good. If not at least you gave it a shot. If this doesn't work your going to have to pay $60 for a new printer head. Which is not that big of a deal but hey if you can fix it for free why not. If you do decide to buy a new printer head you might find deals online or ebay just make sure it's an Genuine HP print head. And lol use the Genuine HP ink cartridges. Finally make sure you print at least on colored page per month to make sure the ink doesn't clog up in the future.
    Remember this suggestion is after you have run the HP clean ink cartridge procedure twice. Sometimes the clean procedure will correct the problem first. Also there is video I watched on YouTube about this just search for "Clean HP 6500 print head. Hope that helps
    Once it's all dry just reinstall the printer head carriage

  • HP Envy 5530 won't print in color from Mac

    My printer won't print anything in color from my Mac. I've tried printing from Word and from a PDF, and each time only black ink will show up. I've tried:Removing the black ink catridge and printing with just colorShaking the color ink cartridgeRemoving and putting back the color ink cartridgePrinting a test page (color doesn't work for this, either- nothing prints at all when I do this)Double and triple checking my print settings The only ink color that my computer says is "low" is yellow. I'm printing wirelessly, but because black ink prints fine, I'm willing to bet there's no connection problems. DO NOT try to sell me more ink; I am already upset with HP enough as it is. The last thing I want to do right now is buy more of its ineffective products. Please help me fix this problem.
    Thank yoooouuuuu

    Hey , Welcome to the HP forums! I hope you enjoy your stay here. I see that you are having issues with printing in colour from your Mac to your Envy 5530. I can help with that. To start, this document outlines how to troubleshoot print quality issues with your printer. When you get to the Solutions that suggest replacing the cartridges you can instead click on this link to contact HP Support. On this page if you scroll down and fill out the form you will find their contact number. I will warn you that if the cartridge is showing as low their solution may be to replace the cartridge with a new cartridge. I hope this helps and I hope you have a great day!

    2. From Scan Settings open the "Scan to Computer".
    3. Click the Scan Tasks tab.
    4. Select the affected shortcut and click on Edit... (or just double-click the shortcut).

  • Officejet 6210xi all in one won't print in color

    I didn't use the color part of my printer for a year, then I bought and installed a new color ink cartridge. However, it still won't print in color. It will print in black but only black, no greyscale. I've tried cleaning the heads, resetting the system, I've double checked to make sure the ink cartridge is the correct one and it is. I've looked through all the faq's in the printers menu but nothing works. Any help is appreciated, I'm about to give up and just get a new printer.

    Hi @Jaim_Faul ,
    I see that you are having issues printing in color. You tried a new cartridge and have the same results. I would like to help
    you out today.
    I would do a hard reset to see if that will resolve the issue.
    Leave the printer on and unplug the power cable from the printer and wall outlet for 60 seconds.
    Then reconnect the power cable to the printer and wall outlet rather than a surge protector.
    This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
    Try these steps to see if it will resolve the issue.
    Missing, Faded, or Dull Colors.
    Go to Step 3 - Print a diagnostic page. Just to see if it is a hardware or software issue.
    You mentioned that you cleaned the cartridge heads, I still included this document to make sure all the areas for the electrical contacts were cleaned on the cartridge and inside the printer. Cartridge Error. Disregard the title.
    Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

  • HP C7250 has all colors of ink but won't print in color

    My HP C7250 shows that all ink levels are OK on the display, but it won't print in color becasue it says tht the Cyan cartridge is low. I recently replaced the Cyan cartidge with a new one and the display shows that the ink level is full, but when i go to print I get a message that the ink level for Cyan is still low.
    The printer is out of warranty. Anyone have an idea of how i can get this printer to print in color again?
    I have tried reinstalling the catridge, and the same thing happens.

    I know this was a while ago, but did you resolve it easily?  Mine has full colors, including cyan at 80%.  It won't use the cyan for color printing at all, so all the colors are off.  I think I have to chagne teh printhead since I've already cleaned them and changed the ink cartridge.  Just curious.  Thanks.

  • My HP 5610V all-in-one is no longer recognized by any pc as a working equipment.

    My HP Officejet 5610v All-in-One is no longer recognized by any of my pc's.  When I plug it in to another pc it says that the device is not recognized or malfunctioning.  All the local or off line functions of the printer, such as copy and fax is working just fine, but it is no longer recognized by the pc as a printer or any functioning device.  I change the printer cable already and setup the printer to the original factory settings but no change.

    I have XP Pro in one of my laptops and Vista on the other.  I really don't think this is a PC or operating system issue because both pc's used to recognize this printer but now both of them say that it is a malfunctioning equipment that is connected to the usb input and it is not recognized at all by the pc as to what type of equipment it is and they recognize other printers immediately.  
    Thanks for trying to help anyways.

  • HP 6500A Plus will not print black only if any color cartridges are low. It used to. Why not now?

    HP 6500A Plus will not print black only if any color cartridges are low. It used to. Why not now? It will print in color if the black is low but not if any color is low. This is very annoying. Printer is using HP cartridges too.

    Get used to this with HP printers - its a new feature they have introduced to keep running costs lows - works well. Had two HP printers same happened with both of these. Suggest a different brand - they might not have this special feature
