When I print it comes out in pink/red.

I purchased all new ink cartridges and did a master reset and I'm still getting the error that the print cartridge aligment failed.

Hello, 

 

Please try the below mentioned step and then try alignment process.

 

on the printer display, 

  1. press the SETUP ( wrench ) button, then
  2. press the TOOLS, then
  3. press the CLEAN Printhead / Cartridge.

Ensure the the ink in the cartridges should atleast be 25% full.

Note: you may have to repeat the above steps 2-3 times.

 

If issue still persits, it could be a faulty Black ink cartridge or the printhead. In which case you might call HP Tech Support for further assistance.
