Resolving Issues When the Hp Printer 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. You can easily solve that issue just following giving instruction. Identify any defects with the black text on the page, the black ink cartridge is the problem.
There are several reasons your HP printer not printing Black Text. The only way to find the solution is to remove the cartridges and start diagnosing the problem from there. Here are some steps to resolve this issue:-
1. Turn on the printer and open lid cover to cartridge compartment. If you are using an HP Photo smart, wait for the cartridges to stop in the middle before removing them. Be careful not to touch the print head.
2. Next, lift the lever that locks the cartridge container. Remove the cartridge compartment.
3. Your ink cartridges might be okay and new but your print head might be full of gunk and dried inks.
4. To clean, you can run or dip the container under a warm water to dissolve dried inks.
5. Once cleaned, dry the container with clear tissue or paper.
6. Put it back into the printer and lock into place. Reinstall the ink cartridges and run test print..
Adjust The Paper Configurations:
If it's not the cartridge and not the printhead, the driver may be the issue. We have one more solution to resolve HP Printer not printing Black Text. One way to fix the issue is to adjust the paper configurations.
To pick "glossy picture paper," try changing the printer driver settings as this may cause the printer to begin printing again. This only applies if there are two black cartridges in your printer – one based on the dye and the other pigment. Typically, the sort of black ink used by your printer would rely on the type of paper chosen. I hope your HP Printer not printing black text problem will solve. The black pigment performs best with matt paper and the glossy dye works. We hope to activate or jump any of the black cartridges to operate by changing from one type of paper to the other.
