During a print process the printer provided me with the message that the black-cartridge is not working anymore. Replacing the cartrigde with a formal HP-cartridge didn't help. Also cleaning etc. didn't help.
Printing with only the color-cartridge works.
I think that the print-head died . Any other suggestions to try ?
