Hi @TIREDOFHP3,

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 unable to print in black from your HP Photosmart 7520 e-All-in-One Printer as the yellow cartridge is empty.

 

This issue has occurred because this printer will use the color ink even if you do not print in color to maintain the grayish tinge on the black print. Hence, it was using a very small amount of color possibly yellow. 

 

Since the cartridges are installed directly on the printhead, the printhead will not start printing unless all the cartridges have minimum levels of ink.
 

You have a good day ahead.
