Photosmart 7510 not printing photo ink when it should, but using up all the other ink cartridges​.

I'm printing photos, mostly black and white, and all my regular cartridges are almost depleted when I thought they were printing from the photo ink cartridge.  I want the photo ink cartridge to be used and it still shows full.  I had to run out and get new cartridges which is becoming expensive.
I have windows 7 and I use the Windows Photo Viewer to print the photos.
I need steps in how to set my printer properties so that the photo ink cartridge is used.
As of now, the way I look at it, it would be less expensive to go to Wal-Mart or a local grocery store and print my photos there.
Thank you.

Hi,
Photo ink is actually black and under normal printing (including printing photos) it can last 3 times longer than other inks.
Regards.

  • Photosmart 6510 not printing photo in colour

    I have a Mac OS X 10.8.4 and I am new to it.  I have a photosmart 6510 wireless printer, and I am trying to print off a colour photo.  Each time I print, the printer goes through the motions of printing and it sounds as though, it is printing - quite slowly, which is the norm for photo's.  However, when the machine has finished, the photo paper is completely blank, can any one tell me what I am doing wrong?   have checked my ink levels and each cartridge is almost half full.  Thanks for any help you can give me

    I am having the same problem... I have a Mac OS X 10.7.5 and a photosmart 6510 printer, and I am trying to print a color photo on 4x6 photo paper -- I have done this before with no problem from various applications.  But now, each time I print, the printer goes through the motions of printing and it sounds as though it is printing, but when it's finished, the photo paper has come out completely blank. The ink levels  are each over half full.  I would really appreciate an answer - I have used all manner of troubleshooting using the standard HP Photosmart printing guidelines and nothing has worked.

  • HP Photosmart 7510 not printing

    My printer is printing out sheets in very light or almost no color and gray instead of black. I have changed all the cartridges, cleaned the printer heads, rebooted the printer...suggestions?

    Hello Lo6105, 
    You can follow the step on this link to ensure your ink cartridges are OK: 
    Printer Prints a Blank Page or Does Not Print Black or Color Ink for the HP Photosmart 7510 e-All-in...
    You may also check the setting on you driver/Printer setup (if  this is happening while printing from a PC) to ensure the  "print on grayscale" option is not active. 
    Let me know if this solves your problem.

  • Photosmart e5520 not printing from PC or via ePrint, but OK from iPad. Why?!

    Hi
    I am having a problem with my brand new HP photosmart 5520 e-all-in-one.
    Connected to my home wireless router fine, got network ID test page etc on initial setup, but when software installed on laptop PC, stopped printing.
    Will air-print from iPad without problems, and shows up on printer control panel as default printer, but will not print.
    Laptop is Vaio using Vista, network is via Netgear G+ MIMO, McAfee security on laptop (no difference if on or off).
    The printer says it is connected to the router, but web services are not reachable. Also, the IP address of the printer does not open the internal web page on entering it into IE or Firefox.
    The printer's IP address is fixed, but does not appear in McAfee network when interrogated. The printer is not asleep. I cannot "find" the printer or install it on the computer's network or printer control panels, and the wireless device finder will not find it either.
    Any help?
    I bought this because of favourable reviews and reported ease of set-up, but it is driving me crackers!!!

  • I am not able to receive any phone calls but it does work the other way  so I can make calls - has anybody had similar problems ?

    Hello,
    While your BB may not, while in your possession, have been part of a BES environment, it nevertheless likely has an IT policy in place as this is one of the key symptoms of that fact. If it ever was part of BES, then there are specific steps that must be taken to remove the IT Policy...just removing it from BES does not remove the policy. The process to remove it is totally destructive, so be sure you back up first. Also, when you restore, DO NOT do a full restore...rather, do a selective restore of only those things you need...if you do a full restore, you will simply put that IT Policy back onto your BB and be right back where you started.
    OK, so here is the procedure:

    I always recommend Method 3 for PC and Method 4 for MAC.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Photosmart C6280 Not Printing Black Ink

    HI.
    I have 3 of the HP Photosmart C6280 All-in-One Printers and they have now all got the same problem. When I print or scan anything no black ink is printed.
    I have tried 3 different ink caritriages including the official hp ones  with no luck.
    When the printer does a test print, it prints all the other colours except black.
    All ink cartirages are full except the pink one. Does this need to be full? It has not been on the other 2 and the black ink has still printed.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    I've just spent the better part of my day trying to figure this out with my photosmart C4580.
    long story short:  I noted the instructions for storage of cartridges when not in use (print at least once/month; if you take a cartridge out, store it in a ziplock: color with nozzles down, black with nozzles up.)
    So I just took out my black cartridge and sat it upside down/nozzles up for a while, maybe an hour, until I noticed black streaks.
    I put it back into the printer, printed black text & it FINALLY printed black, albeit streaked.
    cleaned the print cartridges and now it's PERFECT!!!
    give it a shot!

  • My photos are not printing right with adobe manages color but works when i use printer manages color. never had any issues untill a week ago.

    my photos are not printing right with adobe manages color but works when i use printer manages color. never had any issues untill a week ago.

    We use CS6, yes we calibrate using x-rite. I have always had adobe manage colors when printing. This problem just occurred, all my settings are the same as they have been for years. The only thing we did lately is do an update to CS6. We thought it might be our printer but when we use the printer manages color it works fine, The problem with adobe manages color is it is not blending the light highlights like on top of the cheeks with the colors around the cheeks  and its putting a faint red between the two it just does not have a smooth transition. I printed a photo that I had printed 4 months ago with no issue, and this time it had the issue that I am dealing with now. Somehow the photo shop manages color is not getting the right info to my printer.  
    I set paper type
    set quality
    no color adjustment

  • 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.

  • Is it necessary to have a light black installed if not printing photos on a 7525 phitosmart

    Is it necessary to have a light black cartridge  installed if you are not printing photos?  Keep getting low ink message and it is the only one showing low.

    Hello calcowgirl,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you would like to do some printing without replacing the Light Black ink Cartridge.
    This printer will need to have all the ink installed to function.  The way the printer is designed is that it will take ink from the fuller cartridges to compensate and to complete print jobs.
    Here is a document that explains Ink Usage in Inkjet Printers.
    Thanks for your time.

  • Photosmart 3210 not printing with full black cartridge.

    My photosmart 3210 has had 2 new black cartridges installed and the display acknowledges they are full. However, it refuses to print in black. I have cleaned the heads, successfully aligned the printer but black is still missing from anything I print including test pages. All the printer does is print the black bits using a combination of other inks, which usually results in a in a wine colour. Please could somebody help me.

    JenBrock...did you ever get a solution?  I am having the same problem and have tried all the same troubleshooting options with no sucess.  I also tried to calibrate the color and the background color on the grey squares did not print nor did the black numbers that corrispond to each square print.  Help please...Anyone?!!!
