I have a HP OfficeJet 3831 printer, but for some reason it won't print black ink properly, if it prints it at all. I've tried numerous things to try and fix the problem like changing the black ink cartridge, clean cartridges, align printer, clean page smears, but to no avail. My printer also doesn't have any updates that need to be done. Does anyone have any idea as to what could be wrong?
