@MLG7, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

I understand you are not able to print in black.

  • Are you able to print in color?
  • Make sure the plastic tape if any is removed from the new ink cartridge before placing it in the printer.
  • Try making a standalone copy in black and check if that works. By this, we can conclude if this is a hardware or a driver issue.

Check the ink levels, clean the printhead up to 2 times, and print a quality page as shown in this document - Black or Color Ink Not Printing, Other Print Quality Issues
