Photosmart 6515 Wont Print Black Ink

I too am having the same problem as everyone else. I have had 3 printer from HP and always bragged about how good they are...All of a sudden 2 of the 3 went bad...the HP 6515 wont print the black ink, as well as the Photosmart B209.
I spent over $100 on ink for both of these and they wont print...I tried all the little suggestions.
This will be my last HP when the new one I purchased a few months back goes out. I think that is why they are $100 machines...they only last 1 year and you have to go buy a new one...
Very dissapointed!!!

The post here may help resolve the black not printing issue with your Photosmart b209a printer.
I have asked for an HP Support agent to take a look at your Photosmart 6515 case.

5510 wont print black

myy printer stopped printing black, bought new cartridges and tried all the steps on here. please help

Hello @packersjill,
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 after replacing the cartridges.
You have completed the troubleshooting steps listed here: Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages, with no success.
Please note: There are three printhead cleaning stages. Complete all three stages if necessary. If the printhead is badly clogged, it might require another cleaning cycle. If so, wait 30 minutes after the last (third) cleaning stage to start the first stage of the cleaning process over again.
If you are still unable to print in black ink, I suspect the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge. Please let me know which Country/Region you are in as well as the product Warranty status: HP Warranty Checker
I hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks,

Wireless photosmart 5520 wont print black

Printer wont print in black ink only. Have reset several times. Cleaned printhead. Diagnostic shows colors fully but 4 small stripes of black. Help!

Hi Margaretmarie4,
Welcome to the HP forums!
I'm sorry to hear you've been having issues with your Photosmart 5520 and printing in black ink only. I will certainly do my best to help
I will suggest that you begin with following the steps within this Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages document. Those steps should be able to get the black ink flowing properly again.
If that doesn't resolve the issue, please let me know whether the printer is still under warranty or not and what country you're located in. Please feel free to private message me the country information if you'd like to keep it off the forums!

When it runs the clean head the black column is empty no black at all. I have no other ideas on what to do except maybe get a new printer...not an hp.

Very frustrated. Printer is not printing black ink. Have tried powering off, changing cartridges, cleaning contacts. Any suggestions?

It sounds like you have done most of the troubleshooting steps in this document, but make sure your have checked the vents as shown in solution two. You should also check the warranty as shown in HP’s Warranty Check Tool.
Please report your results back here.

Desk jet f4280 wont print black

printer wont print black ink. prints color ink fine. infact, if i have an office doc i just change the text color 2 dark blue, and it is just fine. color ink indicator is all 4 lights bright green. black ink indicator is all 4 lights-light green. (tried a used-up black, and it does not display green lights, -shows a bright orange light instead.) really need the black ink to work, though, because i cant change the color of something i found on the web.
-i did already submit this question this morning, but i put it under the wrong topic, sorry.

Hi @ChrissyStar,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that your HP Deskjet 1000 will not print using the black ink cartridge, but will with only the color cartridge.
Please take a look through this print quality guide, Printer Prints a Blank Page or Does Not Print Black or Color Ink for the HP Deskjet 1000, 2000, 3000....
Thank you for posting, and have a good day!

You're very much right. There are several different companies that make software that allows you to print directly to the CD/DVD. The link below will take you to a list of those software packages. Hope that helps.

Hp photosmart 7150 only prints black and white with mac

My hp photosmart 7150 only prints black and white with mac. I have tried installing and uninstalling, installing drivers, but no change.

Hi,
You did not mentioned your Mac OS X version, however I assume you have one of the latest versions.
The Photosmart 7150 is not supported on Mac OS X v10.6, v10.7, v10.8 or v10.9 and therefore it is more than likely that there are no drivers for your OS and the used Generic Driver only provide B&W printing.
Although it is not officially supported you may check 3rd party solutions such as the 3rd party HP-IJS print drivers which list your printer as supported.
Be sure to install any of the 3 required downloads, then click the plus sign under Printers & Scanners, click the Use drop down and click on Select Printer Software.
Search for your printer model form the list and select the driver, I believe that may work:
http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/macosx/hpijs
Although it only list up to 10.8 (Mountain Lion) it should also work on Mavericks from my experience.
Hope that may help,
Shlomi

HP Photosmart D110a wont print from HP Pav dv7 laptop, getting weird error msg - can anyone help??

Im running on a Windows Visa Home Premium OS, looks like Service Pack 2, and have not made any system changes to my laptop or upgraded anything recently.
Was able to print fine from my laptop on Monday, but 3 days later Im getting this error message: ""the job failed to print due to an error in the printing system" when trying to print a standard MS Word doc.
I can still get the printer to print fine by using the control panel on the unit itself and requesting to "Run a Wireless Network Test" and also when I've requested a "Print Status Report", "Print Quality Report", etc. But when sending files from the laptop it refuses to work.
If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know - desperate to get this thing back up online but unfortunately Im a tech idiot and havent been able to solve it yet, though Ive searched for hours now it seems.
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer!

It looks like this was duplicate post as your post was marked as solved.
