Full cartridge but ink not printing.

The black ink won't print on our printer. We thought it was out of ink but replaced it and the black ink still won't print. It acts like its printing but it's almost like the black printing components aren't working.

Can somebody help? My HP photosmart C309A, after changing new ink the black big one, does not print? Some document, it can print light/grey color picture (blurred) but no text at all. I try cleaning all the advices above but none of them work! Please help, thanks

What they used to call 'Photo Black' is actually gray, and is used when printing color. You should try soaking the print head in warm water about 10 minutes to make sure it's clean. See if you can borrow another black cartridge to determine if your new one is defective. The Black cartridge is used to print all test reports, so when Black doesn't print, those reports print a blank page. Also, without the main Black cartridge, alignment will fail.

I just replaced all 5 cartridges AND the print head, and my C309a still won't print with the (main) Black cartridge. Colors and photo black all okay. So it's now a boat anchor, with > $120 new parts. I'm going to disassemble to see if I can find an interruption in the black print signals.

Same problem. Tried all cleaning, pin, new cartridge, etc. Still trying to figure it out.

Hi, I finally got mine working 2 days ago, was so happy, I had to realign the printer in the tools menu on the printer screen!

I was so happy!

BUT, TODAY THE SAME PROBLEM, I am done with HP printers!

I just bought an Epson XP434, at wal mart, it prints pages and photos, it does not fax or print two sides.

It is a special model made for WalMart, it was $49.99

Model XP 440 which is sold by Staples and Office Max is the same but $59.99

It is a little smaller, but has pretty good reviews!

I refilled my hp61 cartridge and it would not print. I then put clear tape over the contacts and now prints fine. Please don't ask why it works with the tape on and will not if I remove it because I don't know.

I was having the same problem today. Ran carriage under water and dried. Still didn't work. Looked under tools menu on the printer screen and noticed "clean cartridges." Chose that option. I guess it did the job, because it ran a test print and when we tried to print again it worked just fine.

Buy generic--worth the $10. If those don't work then maybe the printer is defective. I'd tried every other fix for HP cartridges and they still wouldn't print, but generic worked the first time.

I had the same problem, the printer made all the manoeuvers and sounds as if printing, but the page came out blank! I have all the inks (bought and replaced those that were half empty), to no avail. I had the print heads cleaned several times, following the instructions, no results either. The best solution is to buy another printer.

I had the same issue with the black cartridge not printing, but the colors printed, This procedure worked: remove the "bad" cartridge and clean the round filter with a facial cleaning cotton pad (or Qtip) dipped in rubbing alcohol. Let is set on the filter for a few minutes to soften the gunk, then gently rub the round filter several times to clear it. Then, reinsert the cartridge back into the printer. Then open the front display, swipe to find the setup link, scroll down to printer maintenance, select it, scroll down to "clean print heads". I had to run it 3 times (each time it ran, it gave a report to see how it was cleaning and I flipped the test paper over to save sheets). It worked great! I would not use water from the tap as takes too long to dry, plus water and electronics don't do well together. I have the HP Office Jet Pro 6830 e All in One.

I was at my wit's end trying to figure out what happened to the black ink cartridge on my HP 6980 printer which suddenly quit working, but this fix worked perfectly! Thank you so much!

This is exactly the issue I was seeing. I washed the head, replaced the inks, changed the printer head... All to no avail. Very frustrating.

At this point, sadly, the most effective solution I can see is simply replace the unit. I've already spent far too much on what is now a defective machine.

Seems such a waste though.

HP printers seem so affordable on purchase but have such annoying issues after and way too much time spent on solutions! Mine will not allow me to print full page photos only smaller ones. No solution has helped.

von

HP has added some type of sensor to their printer so that one is unable to use refilled cartridges. I have refilled ink cartridges for years with no problems. HP wants you to spend more money by making it so that their printer only works with a brand new original cartridge. My suggestion, never buy another HP printer unless you want to spend hundreds of dollar more on ink!

von

It is cheaper to buy another new printer than to purchase ink. Hp sucks, there is no way to cause it to print faster, it takes foreverl.

I saw a comment somewhere in this thread, followed it: "stick a clear tape over the contacts of the ink cartridge".

It's really odd, but putting a clear tape over the contacts of the black ink cartridge (and left it there) worked! The printer (HP DeskJet Ink Advantage 1115) now prints the "missing black ink" needed. Perhaps I'll just remove the clear tape next time.

von

I hope helps other I hv been fighting with my printer for 6 mon now

In my old printer, I could refill old cartridge & keep using printer, but this new HP DESKJET 2135 never accepts refilled cartridge.

I figured out for it to accept the Color cartridge I have to Reset the printer (instruction for HP deskjet reset is available on internet), however, it never accepted black cartridge, it always show Black cartridge Indicator LED blinking meaning it is not recognizing the refilled cartridge. So after reading everyone post above, I also just applied clear masking tape on the complete contact points of the black cartridge and then inserted it. The printer still says it has not detected the black cartridge (because the LED light for black cartridge is constantly on). However, when I print I can see black ink is getting printed. I have a doubt whether this is actually blank ink or color ink is printing black color. i suspect it is later, I will post update in future.

I have had this happen twice with my HP Deskjet 3510. I got on HP phone support and went through all the steps & tips both times and nothing helped. Finally, they suggested I try ANOTHER new black ink cartridge, and it worked perfectly. Apparently, the initial ink cartridges were defective. HP sent me a new cartridge and I mailed the defective one back to them.

Two things that work :

1) go under Advanced printer settings and change everything to black or gray scale. This will allow you to print in black if your color cartridges are empty.

2) take out the black ink cartridge and use a small stiff paint brush and brush the printer head ( looks like a little round mesh metal screen) I went back-and-forth and in a circular motion several times and then replaced the ink cartridge. A little dab of rubbing alcohol may help.

Solution 1 worked for me except I don’t have an HP printer so the option for gray scale wasn’t on the printer. I could only change the printer settings on the desktop. So for anyone without an hp printer just look for the grayscale option either on the printer or on a desktop.

von

Solution 2 - I own an HP Office Jet Pro 6830e All in One. I used a facial cotton pad dipped in rubbing alcohol, then let it set on the mesh filter for a few minutes to soften the gunk before gently rubbing the filter. Place the cartridge back in the slot, close the lid. Then, on the front display swipe it to find the setup link, then scroll down to the printer maintenance link, then scroll down to the "clean print heads". I ran the procedure 3 times (each one printed a test sheet), flipped the test sheet over in the tray to use the reverse clean side (saving paper), and it WORKED. I would not use water to clean the round mesh head as water and electronics don't mix. Thank goodness I am back in business!

Cleaning the printheads worked for me, thank you!

HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 5525. I have bought original cartidges. The black one was identified by the printer as counterfeit for some reason. I replaced it with another original. The printer stopped printing black ink. The diagnostic page shows the box where the black was supposed to be as white. I have tried all the options to clean the printer. no result. This is the second printer in two years that has the same issue.

I AM DONE with this company. This is scandalous. It is obvious that this is a firmware/software issue that blocks the printer from using the black ink. I will never buy HP for personnal use, or for my business ever again, and I urge everyone to do the same. Enough is enough.

Yes this fixed mine after going through all the other ideas at least twice . I did not know about the vent. In fact after sticking the pin in the hole the black came through partially. Then examining the vent again I discovered the plastic covering the label was partially covering the end of the vent channel. When I pulled it away and cut if off the channel was exposed and the ink printed perfectly.

The problem is related to a clog you can't easily get rid of without physically removing the printhead and soaking it in hot water. I fixed this on a removable printhead model and it printed perfectly after I cleaned the head this way.

While my guide covers the cleaning process, it doesn't cover the required disassembly to remove the printhead on permanently installed printers. I don't have one of these, so I can't repeat the procedure on a printer with a similarly mounted printhead like you have. It's also highly unlikely I'll ever do it unless I get the printer for free and the owner doesn't want it back. You don't want to get water in the flatflex connectors, so only use a small amount of water. This is potentially deadly, as some of these printers are known to demand SETUP ink the owners probably no longer have.

Now that that's out of the way here's the relevant guides to your situation:

Hello,

I have the same problem here. And I’m using the external ink. I resolved it by checking the tube connection between the ink cartridge and the external ink. The black tube was disconnected. I fix it and do the deep cleaning for a several times. Now, my black ink is running again.

Followed everything. I am getting the notification that the ink carriage cannot move. It does make a bang inside but I can move it back and forth easily with my hand. I noticed that it drops down a little on the right hand side. Perhaps into a locking position? I also think there is some sort of a ink tray below it. Lots of ink there. Unfortunately I cannot get this to print still.

REAL ANSWER.

As in most HP printers, the printer heads are on a Carriage tray into which the ink Cartridges click into. The ONLY REAL way to clear the problem is take it to a local printer / PC tech service and ask them to remove AND CLEAN the Carriage Tray in a soft solvent to clear the dried residue from the actual heads themselves. This will involve unscrewing a few panels to enable the Carriage tray to be removed. Not difficult. The cartridges themselves are NOT the problem in this instance. This will happen if the printer has been idle for some time. Once gummed up pouring more printer ink (head cleaning) into an already blocked and dried up head system will not work as many have already experienced. Also a good time to clean the ADF feeding, drive and pickup rollers, coder stripe and panels. The Printer is fine - resist the urge to chuck it. I have done this and HP 4625 works well once more.

What eventually worked for me was performing a HARD RESET as explainted in step 5 below after completing the other 4 steps first.

I experienced the same problem with my HP 6500A Plus all-in-one printer and here is what eventually worked. If you have

1) performed a soft reset by pulling out the power cord from the back of the printer while it is still on then reconnecting after 15 seconds.

2) Cleaned the printed head (if it is removable, lift the lever and run the printer heads under warm running water then thoroughly dry.

3) You may need to take a tissue of lint-free paper towel, dab some warm water on the end, and hold it over the ink release portion of the cartridge before reinserting into the printhead.

4) Replace any empty cartridges. HP Printers are notorious for not allowing a print job go through if an empty ink cartridge needs to be replaced.

5) What ultimately worked for me after completing the above steps was performing a HARD RESET. While the machine was still on, I pulled out the printhead and ink cartridges (also cleaned them) then pulled out the power cord from the back of the printer while it was still on. After waiting 15 seconds, I replugged the power cord into the back and waited for the error message: "printer error with printhead/catridges". Next I put the printhead back, then the ink catridges, which forced the machine to go through an intialization and alignment process. It took at least 10 minutes for it to cycle through. I printed a test page and saw it finally printed black (I already present it to print black ink only).

The syringe is filled with air problem I recommend that you insert the needle as far as possible and angle it toward the print head. Remove the plunger from the syringe and put in the correct amount of ink. Let the ink slowly enter the cartridge by gravity.

Costco gave me answer and refunded money on refilled cartridges. Cartridges that come with printer can only be partially filled and only work for one or two refills. Then printer will not recognize. I was told that even if I buy new HP cartidges for my Envy 4522, they can only be refilled a certain number of times and will quite working. So they expect you to purchase new from HP for about 70.00 a pop. Ripoff!!!!

It may not be a printer problem at all. I have been through all these scenarios and come to the conclusion its either a Windows problem or a Microsoft problem. I even de-installed Office 365 and re-installed it. No joy!But just by accident I needed to print an online receipt and it worked! So at least I know its not the HP 4620 and therefore in all probability not your printer problem either but a software issue. For the moment, I am going online to my accounts to print anything from my mails. Only problem is printing in Word/Outlook.

Update (07/05/2018)

...slight correction, nothing local works, have tried a simple copy...comes out blank.

Hi everyone,

For HP Printers you just need to shake the cartridge and then place it back into the tray in the printer.

Better to shake it with the original cap inserted as there is always a risk the ink might flow out, anyway such risk is limited.

After shaking the cartridge I recommend to try a print test from the printer maintenance menu, as well as some other procedures like cleaning cartridges and ink nozzles (still from the maintenance menu) as that should provide that additional push to unblock the cartridge.

Hope this might help you all, cheers

It could be bad ink cartridges. I just purchased mine on Amazon in a bundle. The first one I used worked great. But, it started acting like it was out of ink when the printer indicated it wasn’t out, but just a little low. I replaced it 2 times before I finally resigned to opening up the cartridges I received through HP’s Instant Ink program. Now it’s printing perfectly.

I’m wondering if the cheaper ones on Amazon can’t stand the Arizona dry heat so they sort of expire, even if the tape has been removed from them…

Actually, it turns out the design of the printer seems a bit flawed, ink was coming out of the cartilage okay but not sitcking to the paper, however, putting something under the back side of the printer (so tilting it a bit forward towards where the paper comes out from, it works fine! weird but works)

I had same issue. I have a very old hp printer that I love - it's survived about 15 years of printing all kinds of things (kids essays, etc.). I had just installed new black ink and it wouldn't print anything. I tried everything (removing/adding printer, etc.). Then I just shook the new black cartridge several times really hard and I saw little drops start to form. Now it's up and running again. Didn't try tape, but that was going to be my next attempt. So maybe just shake your cartridge first to see if you can get some ink to come to surface!

I saw a comment somewhere in this thread, tried it: "stick a clear tape over the contacts of the ink cartridge".

It's really odd, but putting a clear tape over the contacts of the black ink cartridge (and left it there) worked! My printer (HP DeskJet Ink Advantage 1115) now prints the "missing black ink" that I needed to see. Perhaps I'll just remove the clear tape next time.

P.S. Before I arrived at this page, I was really frustrated since I’ve already spent an hour or so cleaning and aligning the cartridges, printed lots of test sheets, removed the ink cartridges and cleaned them using a Q-tip/cotton buds, browsed different options from HP website, etc. Stumbling upon this thread was a lifesaver.

HP should reconsider its politics about inks prices and functionality and, after all, fairness over their customers. We live in year 2020, what kind of strange funny business is that of HP, to spend almost all new (genuine HP) cartridges in cleaning procedures, in order to make the printer to do its job??? This is ridiculous. WE PAY THEM (a lot of hard earned money), for a product, THEY DON'T PAY US, to try to find out what is wrong with their company and their products! I don't see why I must spend hours over hours and above that my money and even more money, just to be able to make a simple print, in year 2020. This is very close to be a regular fraud! HP is on its best way to disappear from market, which is not difficult at all, no matter how big a company is, a whole bunch of other companies disappeared, after they treated their costumers like HP does. Greed was never a good advisor.

In my case, OfficeJet Pro 6968, it NEVER prints black EXCEPT for the test page that is printed after a firmware downgrade which has 3 sets of parentheses () around each of the 3 colors.

To me this means that there is nothing physically preventing (clogging) the black ink from printing -but that the issue is entirely electronic.

This started after the latest firmware "upgrade" which I suspect contains a crippling mechanism to prevent older versions of the firmware to be reinstalled correctly.

Now I can't print with black ink no matter which cartridge I use. EVen the Copy function and the reports do not print in black.
Again, I would suspect a cartridge (although I have tried 3) or printhead issue - except for the fact that it does print those black parentheses cleanly right after the firmware install.
