Are both color and black cartridges necessary for HP 1400 Printer Scanner? #2
I am a user of HP 1400 Printer cum Scanner which provides two slots for one black and one color cartridge. If the color cartridge has dried up and I am urgently in need of printing out a document in black, can I print in black keeping the exhasted color cartridge in the cradle? Have I to press the Black button on the Printer for starting the print operation? Similarly if the black cartridge has dried up, can I print in color, keeping the exhausted black cartridge in the cradle as a dummy? Have I to press the Color Button on the Printer to start operation? Why doesn't HP provide a Manual of instructions for handling different situations of this type? P. Jayant ...

Gray Photo Print HP 100 Cartridge versus/vs. Black Print Cartridge (HP 94/96) for an old HP Photosmart 4850 printer
Hello. I have an old HP Photosmart 4850 printer. I noticed it can have a Gray Photo Print HP 100 Cartridge or Black Print Cartridge (HP 94/96) for black. Do I assume HP 100 is only for grey scale printouts with images like photographs/photos.? And I would want to buy and use black print cartridge (HP 94/96) for printouts with mostly black texts (e.g., documents, web pages)? Thank you in advance. :) -- "..., you ready for a little dumpster diving?" "Um... okay." "You know I don't mind getting my hands dirty." "I mean, maggots, wet tras...

HP Photosmart 8450 printer lost the fairly new HP Tri-Color Print Cartridge 97 cartridge...
Hello. Tonight, my very old HP Photosmart 8450 printer lost the fairly new HP Tri-Color Print Cartridge 97 cartridge (2014/08/24 Z; 1782606105249600) after I printed out a three/3 pages of B&W PDF application form after turning on the printer for a few minutes. The printer showed a blinking red print button border and its screen says "Color cartridge failed. Replace it, or ... remove it to print using ink-backup printing mode." I tried removing and reinserting the cartridge, turning off and on including unplugging its power cable, cleaning cartridge and print...

get HP color printer print black&white if some color cartridge is used up

HP Photo Printers and HP 7410 Cartridges

In the US the photo cartridge is a #99, and it replaces the black cartridge and works with the color cartridge. The #58 cartridge is not compatible with the Officejet 7410. The photo cartridge gives somewhat better graduations of tones, especially in light areas such as sky or faces. Regards, Bob Headrick, not speaking for my employer HP ...

Any HP printer with individual colored ink cartridges?
I'm a long time HP printer user, and I'm looking at purchasing a new inkjet printer. I would like to save money by buying an inkjet that uses individual colored ink cartridges. Well, at least I think I'll save money. It seems HP does not make inkjet with individual ink cartridge for each color, is it? Also among the major printer manufacturer, like HP, Canon, Epson; it seems only HP build the print head in the ink cartridge. I have been very satisfied with HP printer, but I would like to try another brand. I have the impression HP inkjet printers are expensive to operate. Any ideas/opinions/comments welcomed. BTW, the Canon Pixma printers look interesting, especially the double-sided print feature.

HP printer for home use that does not need a color cartridge installed??
Does anyoneone know of an HP inkjet printer for home use that works with just a black ink cartridge installed?? I just want a plain inkjet printer for home use to print things such as genealogy reports, e-mail, ETC. I do not print pics, graphics, etc. The few web pages I do print I do not care about the color pics. They can be in black. I can not see paying for color cartridges when I do not need them!! I know there may be other brands out there that fix what I want but I am looking for an HP inkjet - NOT OTHER TYPES!! Thanks in advance for any help! "krazy&qu...

HP error message : "incorrect black printer cartridge"
I have had an HP1210v PSC for about 2 years now. I recently got some flashing lights for the check print cartridge error light. The diagnostics in the HP director states that "the black printer cartridge is the wrong kind". I have had the same cartridge in there since installation, and I don't think this is an "out of ink" problem. I emailed HP, and they had several suggestions (none of which worked, duh, like cleaning the contacts and resetting the printer and whatnot). They have a patch which is supposed to fix this, but when executed it gives the error message "did not find an eleigible printer to update". Hp states this patch always works, which, obviously, it doesn't. They now say it must be a hardware problem, but if a patch exists, I'm guessing it must be a software prob of some sort. I haven't tried replacing the cartridge (20$), because I'm still guessing its a software problem. Any ideas???

HP Laserjet 3200 (black & white) printer/fax/copier/scanner
When printing, I have just recently starting getting specks that fall into a column (a rather narrow band) on each page. The specks are quite evenly spaced out; they appear about four times on a page. I changed the toner not too long ago. On the Laserjet, there is a menu item for "clean printer". I ran this and it ran a paper through the printer slowly. Unfortunately, that wasn't successful. Any ideas what to do next? I'd appreciate some help. -Mike MY wrote: > > When printing, I have just recently starting getting specks that fall > into a column (a rather narrow band) on each page.

The cart for an IBM 4029 has a tab that can be pulled in and out, which cleans something inside the cart. See if yours has something like that. That said, evenly spaced marks from a xerographic device are characteristic of a dirty drum. ...

HP 10 and HP 11 cartridges

It's made me wonder if the ink formulations will be the same and if I can swap the HP10 ink into an empty HP11 housing? Anyone done this?

HP Director for HP 4570c scanner
I have an HP 4570c scanner that I moved from one computer to install on another. Scanner and software was working fine on th old computer. When I installed it on the new computer and try to use HP Director I keep getting this message. "An error occured communicating with the scanning device.Please ensure the scanning device is connected properly and try again." I can scan a document or picture using the HP Photo and Imaging tool but the client wants the HP Director. I have installed the HP Solution Centre and I keep getting the same error message. I do not have IE7 installed. I have removed and uninstalled all the HP scanning software and reinstalled but still running into the same issue. I'm puzzled why I can connect and scan using the HP Photo and Imaging but receive an error when I try to use the HP Director. Any help appreciated. Thanks, Steve ...

HP Photosmart C6380 All-in-one printer --- 564 XL Black cartridges come in many sizes -- Help!!
I have a HP Photosmart C6380 All-in-one printer that I bought about a year ago. I took my empty Black XL 564 cartridge (that is almost 1 inch thick) out of the HP Photosmart C6380 All-in-one printer. This cartridge also has a 5-sided symbol above the number. I went to Staples (where I bought the printer) to try and replace it. Found one for $28+ that said "Black 564 XL" and thought this was the one. It turned out to be only 3/4 inch thick and did not fit into my printer. How can I tell if I am purchasing the one inch thick Cartridge (the only one that fits), before...

hp and other printer cartridges
Does anyone know how to defeat the "ink out" message from a cartridge to its printer after refilling the cartridge?

HP Printer Cartridges
I have an HP 750XI and the cartridges just ran out. My old 932C has the same colour cartridge which is full so I was able to swap them. The black cartridge in the 932C is #45 and is also almost full and the cartridge in the 750 is #15. They look identical but the 750 won't accept the #45. Is there anyway to fool the 750 into accepting the #45? tia -- Cheers! Jan ...

HP 960 C Deskjet printer
A puzzling issue - I have paviliion running win xp sp2 (about 4 years old) and have a minor glitch when I print a document from powerpoint 2003. I was able to find a newer driver (from late 2001) and tried to install it. But the printer driver assistant "wants to close" and send error message to microsoft. I have tried several times to do this update but it fails. I tried uninstalling the software from add/remove programs but nothing happens when I try to do that. HP support had me modify the registry and remove a subfolder relating to this printer, but that also did not help and i used system restore to revert. I also tried using the installation cd to remove. it did its routine but did not remove anything and the printer still works. I cannot help but wonder if the driver install program is defective. Since i can work around the glitch I am ready to give up - but thought I would ask about this alan Where did the newer driver come from, HP or Micro$oft? If the latter, I would strenuously avoid installing hardware driver updates from the Microsoft update web site. There are too many buggy hardware drivers there, and quality control seems to not exist. I have installed hardware updates from there and had graphics go south and network adapters stop working. What is the glitch printing a PowerPoint document? Have you tried a lower resolution? Sometimes the print files generated by Microsoft Office products are extremely bloated and cause pr...
