My printer prints a blank page when I ask for black only.

[PETEB8]

I replaced an HP902 black cartridge because of poor ink quality.  I also at the same time replaced all three color cartridges.  All ink cartridges are HP.   Since then I have been unable to print in black.  All I get are blank pages.  This is the same when I print from my computer or copy documents by placing on the glass.  I have performed the cleaning of print heads many times.  I have also purchased a cleaning solution and removed the ink cartridges and flushed the black print head.  I have done this many times and flushed out black ink onto a paper towel but still print blank pages after reinstalling all the ink cartridges.

Any ideas of what to do next?

I of course early on also removed the power cord from the back of the machine and also from the wall plug and waited a couple of minutes before I reattached the cord.
