Black 564 cartridge doesn't fit; now I see I have to order Black 564 Photo. In the meantime, how can I get printer to use the 564XL that has full ink capacity?

I believe you have another question but with different name. Anyway, you can keep the 564XL cartridge and replace the existing black cartridge when required.

 

Your printer should have 5 ink cartridges

The first 4 are same size physically can be 564 or 564XL The XL cartridges have MORE inks inside, that's all. They are (from left to right): Photo (black), Magenta, Cyan and Yellow.

 

The 5th one (wider) is HP 564 or HP 564 XL, again the HP 564XL black has more inks than the HP 564, that's all.

 

Again, you can keep 564XL black when required.

 

Regards.

Hi @ssb53211

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you.

 

The smaller black ink cartridge is the photo black ink cartridge. The wider one is the regular black ink cartridge at the other end.

Both these black ink cartridges are available in XL and regular size.

 

Now, the XL black ink cartridge that you have, check if it is a photo black or a regular black ink cartridge. It will be mentioned on the ink cartridge or its packaging.

 

To know how to replace the ink cartridges, refer to this document. 

 

Kindly click here to order the ink cartridge online from HP.

 

I hope this helps! Keep me posted.
