My HP Photosmart 8250 will not print in black.

Hi,
My HP Photosmart 8250 will not print in black. I saw previous posts stating that it will not print in black if any of the color cartridges are empty, but all of the cartridges have ink. Thank you!

HP Photosmart 5510 will not print Black Ink!! - Time to "break-up" with HP

I came upon this forum by doing a google search for the issue I'm having which is my HP Photosmart 5510 will not print black ink. The printer is a year and a half old and is used only for home office use (not a heck of a lot of printing being done)
It started right after I installed new ink cartridges (all four of them) I want to mention hear that I ONLY buy genuine HP ink cartridges from Staples and when I replace my cartriges I replace all four at the same time even if one ink level is not considered "replaceably" low. When the issue started I thought I must have gotten a bad black cartridge so I went out and bought another one but was still having the issue. So that's when I did my google search.
I tried all the suggestions (several times) on this post (which did not reslove the problem) : http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printing-Issues-Troubleshooting/HP-Photosmart-5510-will-not-print/m-p/1...
and I tried a "Hard Reset" as suggested here (again did not resolve the problem) : http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Ink-Toner-Cartridge-Printhead-Issues/Photosmart-5510-Will-not-print-in-...
After trying all of these my color ink is less than half full....remember....I started with 4 brand new ink cartridges...so now, I'm out roughly $85 in ink just trying to resolve a problem that should not have happened in the first place!! Shame on HP for makeing such poor quality products. I gave up on HP computers years ago and now I'm giving up on their printers!! This HP Photosmart 5510 All In One printer replaced an HP Color Laserjet CM1312nfi printer (which cost approximately $400) that only lasted about 3 years. Sorry HP but that's it....I'm moving on! Consider this our "break-up" letter.

Hi TisKate, sorry to hear that you are having printing issues when it comes to printing in Black. I am also sorry to hear that you are breaking up with HP. I would like to offer a couple more troubleshooting steps before we say our fond farewells. Now this might sound silly but really it isn't. If you have the power cable connected to a Power bar/strip, please remove it and connect the power cable directly to a wall outlet. HP printers already have a built in surge protector and if you have it in a strip/bar, the printer will not get all the power needed to function properly. This can cause printing issues or false error messages on the printer display screen. Here is a document that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
The other step I would like to take is on the printers display touch screen. Please use the right arrow key and go to the Wrench icon. Press the wrench and go to the Tools menu. Once in the Tools menu, please select Clean Printhead. Use the cleaning utility 2-3 times or until you see a change in the print status reports. It might take a few cycles but I am confident that it will make a difference.
I hope you and HP can still be friends( friendly humor).
Thanks for your time.

My Photosmart C6280 will not print in color.

My Photosmart C6280 will not print in color.All ink levels are good. Factory defaults clicked. Did I override something without realizing it? I don't see anywhere to click for grayscale. I am using an APPLE AIR....I have also turned the printer off and on again..

Hi there @Ashley31 , welcome to the forums
I read about how you cannot print or copy in color. Not copying in color is concerning, as the copy is a stand alone function that does not involve the computer in any way.
I'd suggest power resetting the printer:
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.
You can also remove the ink cartridges and reinsert them and try a color copy again to see if that helps.
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you, such as a replacement or trade in. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and if you are calling outside of the US/Canada region,: click here.

Photosmart D7560 will not print envelopes - load paper into main tray

My photosmart d7560 will not print envelopes, after moving the envelope into position for printing, the message "load paper into main tray" is displayed. It does print the envelope data correctly on a piece of 8.5x11 paper. Setup is for a #10 envelope. Envelopes are self sealing. I have tried creasing the edge better but that didn't help. I tried a non-self seal (which had a letterhead on it so I couldn't use it for this mailing) and it DID work. Is there any way to make self seal envelopes work in this printer?
This question was solved.

Do you have the flap folded inside the envelope, so that it does not stick out?

Hp photosmart 5515 will not print black.

hp photosmart 5515 will not print black, but will print colors (cyan blue yellow). Printer shows full inks on all colors.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

No solution. Power cycled several times, power cycled computers, modem, router, performed all recommended cleanings, changed all ink cartridges, checked it over several days - no go. Then, suddenly, after weeks, it started printing again. That's one hell of a gremlin. Throughout all of this time, my inexpensive Canon printer never faltered.

HP Photosmart 5510 will not print in black ink

Hello, I started having an issue with my photosmart 5510. It slowly stopped printing in black in. I started printing, it printed a few pages normally, but then phased out to not printing black at all. When searching for solutions, I found a forum where an expert mentioned different instructions that have to be messaged privately, may I also have these instructions?
I have tried all the suggested steps and still no black ink, only wasting colored ink while I try one fix or another and then do a test page after each try.
I have had this printer for more than a year, possibly more than 2 years even, so it is way out of warranty and I am willing to try anything at this point.
Thank you.
PS I did try to private message the expert, but it wouldn't send due to "Your post has been changed because invalid HTML was found in the message body. The invalid HTML has been removed. Please review the message and send the message when you are satisfied." and it still wouldn't send. So here I am making a whole new thread about it :/

Hi MamaChickadee,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are running into some print quality issues on your HP Photosmart 5510, you are unable to print in black ink.
You have completed the steps listed here: Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages, with no success and would like to try the reset on the machine. I suspect the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge and do not feel a reset would help in this situation.
I would like to get this taken care of for you as soon as possible, can you please let me know which Country/Region you are in?
I hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks,

HP Photosmart 5510 will not print in black

My printer is 2 years old. I replaced my black ink cartridge and it won't print any solid black. Other colors print fine. When I pick shades of gray for text in Word, it prints those, just not solid black. I've run the diagnostics and cleaned print heads. Please advise.

I see you are unable to print black from your Photosmart 5510, I'd like to help. Please complete all of the steps in the following document; Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages.

Photosmart Plus B209a not printing yellow

My Photosmart Plus B209a doesn't seem to be printing yellow. First thought was a blockage, but having changed the cartridge as it was low anyway, it's still not printing yellow. Any thoughts?
This question was solved.

Problem now solved, just needed to clean the printhead. I always thought the printhead was part of the cartridge, so by changing the cartridge I'd changed the printhead. Turns out that isn't the case!

Photosmart c4780 will not print in color

Brand new to forums... I am using a MacBook Pro, OS 10.6.8. I recently bought a used photosmart c4780. The owner said it only prints black. When I set everything up, it wouldn't print at all, as the black ink was depleted. I replaced the black cartridge and now it prints. However, even though the color supply levels are at about half full, it will not print in colorI receive no error messages. Have tried different settings in the Print dialog options to no avail. Have not been able to find anything online that addresses this exact issue within the parameters as I've described them. Any help appreciated.

Since upgrading to lion and updating HP software my printer (photosmart D5160) will not print to CD/DVD when I try it says my printer doesn't support CD printing. any help will be welcome

Since upgrading to lion and updating HP software my printer ( HP photosmart D5160 driver 3.3.0) will not print to CD/DVD,when I try it says "your printer does not support CD printing". any help will be welcome.

I see those are old posts above but I'm just now having the same problems. I have the original software CD that came with my Photosmart D5160 printer but I can't load it. I get the message "You can't open the application "HP Installer" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported". So I don't have that going for me, which is not nice! But I couldn't really care less about that if I can just find a CD labeler software that will print from my Mac to the D5160. I'd rather by new CD labeler software than a new printer. I've tried a few free CD labeler software downloads, including iWinSoft Label Maker, but nothing has worked so far. I think there's an answer somewhere; I'm able to print documents on regular paper using this printer, but I only bought it (many years ago) to print CD labels and some pictures. It's been used only sparingly and it's been in storage since I bought my Mac 3 years ago, mainly because a I got a free printer with my purchase. Any help is vertainly appreciated!!!

Photosmart c6180 does not print the page what i want

Have you tried deleting the printer and reinstalling? At least you are getting the printer to do something. My print job just gets hung up in queue.

Photosmart 6510 black not printing

This morning I was able to print full-colour docs including black. After the first few prints, they became steadily fainter until nothing appeared. I checked the ink levels in the software and they were all marked as spent, so I went out and bought a 4-pack of HP inks. I installed them in the printer as indicated (wrapping off, orange whatnot off), tried test prints. Colours fine, no black. I ran a printhead clean from software, both an initial then a deeper clean. Printouts showed colour but no black. The control software shows all ink cartridges to be full. Printhead health is good. I turned it off and turned it on again. I cleaned the cartridge vent as advised in various threads. All with no effect - black doesn't print, despite a fresh new cartridge and the control software reporting the reservoir as full. If anyone on here has any ideas as to why this is the case then I'm all ears. If not, then I can only assume: a) the cartridge is knackered. As I've taken it out of its wrapping then I'll not be able to take it back to the shop.b) the printer is knackered, in which case it'll have to go to the skip as it's out of warranty. I've looked at the following forum threads: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Ink-Toner-Cartridge-Printhead-Issues/Black-not-printing/m-p/2926025http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Ink-Toner-Cartridge-Printhead-Issues/Photosmart-6515-doesn-t-print-black-ink-after-installing-new/td-p/2637505 and of course Googled. This problem has already cost me 3 hours and counting, so if it takes any longer then it would be cheaper for me to go out and buy a new (non-HP) printer.

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I noticed that your black ink is not printing with your HP Photosmart 6510, and I am happy to help!
