I attempted to clean the printheads from the HP utility and it now states that there are no print cartridges. Should I attempt to align the printheads from the printers screen or just go to the manual cleaning of the printheads?

Hello, @Red-Maple

 

Appreciate your efforts!

 

When you say, 6 distinct color, what are those colors? Is black one among them?

 

If there is no black, then the issue could be with the black printing. Try making a copy of a color document and check this theory. 

Also, if the black is not printing, try using a different black cartridge or try cleaning the print head manually.

 

Thanks, I'll watch for your reply!

Cheers 🙂
