HP 306 photo smart printer

The printer has a new ink cartridge.  It will not type full text with black ink...will do so in blue color only.

It will though print the black w/i any mixed colored graphics.

Thoughts as to how to rectify?

Hi @RQ1,

Welcome to HP Forums, this is a great place to get support, find answers and tips.


Thank you for posting your query. I'll be more than glad to help you.

I understand that you are facing issues with your HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer - C309g wherein it does not print in black.

 

This issue could occur if the cartridges are not vented properly or the printhead may be defective or damaged.

 

Let's go through a few steps that may help to fix this issue.
