black ink not working

[IUSTEVE85]

Any suggestions for the 6280?

All the color cartridges work, but the black one does not print out.  I changed the cartridge but it didn't help.  I've cleaned the cartridges using the set-up key, but to no avail.  What do you suggest?

Please read this post then provide some details.  

What printer model?  I would suggest reading the entire thread here, there are suggestions for models with integrated print heads (IPH) included on the ink cartrdiges as well as individual ink cartrdiges (IIC) with separate printheads.

I have an HP Photosmart 8150, I have changed the black ink cartridge, printed a test page going through the printer.  When I went to print a document the black would not print, yet it will print on the test page.  I have gone through the software (MSWord) to double check the settings.  Any recommendations or suggestions?  Thank you.

The Black ink does not print.   I have replaced it with a new one; still doesn't print.   All the color cartridges do print fine.   I have followed instructions on the Set-Up key to "clean the printing cartridges."   Still does not work.  I have not removed the black cartridge and cleaned it manually.  Is that called for? Or is there some other method.

Please advise.   Thanks You

I can't seem to get a reply to this question.  This is the 3rd time I've submitted it.   Sorry for the repetition!

The black ink will not print - only the colored ones do.    I replaced it with a new black cartridge.  Still does not work.   I've followed directions on the SET-UP key to clean the printing and cartridges; still not working.   I have not cleaned the cartridge manually.  Is that required?  Please advise.     Thank you.

I have Deskjet 3745. When I detected that the print out had a few breaks in black characters (even though the ink level indicator showed 2/3 full), I replaced the ink cartridge with a new one.  Since then, I cannot print any documents in black (with the old nor the new black cartridge).  My color cartridge prints fine.  Please Help...
