My response to you all, screw inkjet printers because they're too much of a dang headache!!!!!īuy a laser printer, and you will be extremely happy you did! they're very competitively priced these days with inkjet printers, do not have even a fraction of the problems inkjets do because they use what's called a toner cartridge which last many months-i change my toner cartridges about once a year give or take. If the above doesn't work then the little electronic board/head is defective - grab a new cartridge.

Once you do this consult your manual for replacing ink cartridges - re-install the (in this case black) cartridge and turn a test print (bonus: set your printer to b&w only so not to burn up your color ink - drop a small photo into a word processing document.)
I've worked with 7 feet+ inkjets in graphics design shops in the past, each morning I used this technique to prime heads esp during weather changes. Once you do, use a dry part of the paper towel and blot it dry, do not scrub. You should start seeing the ink flow onto the paper towel. Next, twist the end of a paper towel and stick it into the water then DAB, do not rub, DAB the cartridge where the ink flows out - without wetting the little circuit board. On trick for ink cartridges is to heat up a cup of water in the microwave - not boiling, but about as hot as you can stand to sip a cup of tea or coffee. 95% of the time they are using off-brand inkjet cartridges that are cheaply sold - and even when they do work, the circuitry typically fails within a few months. I've ran into the same issue with several of my customers. Shake them up well before installing them. #1 mistake made when replacing cartridges.
