Problem for Compaq Inkjet IJ650 Printer

Compaq IJ650 ink jet printer will not print color.




By lmullen84 on Jan 08, 2009

Just installed this product new. Brand new color and black cartridges- both properly installed. Printer will not print color. I should add that it isn't printing what should be in color in black- it just isn't printing it at all. I tried a test page I made in Word that had the words 'hi there' written in black, red and green. Only the black line printed. It's doing this in all apps. What is wrong?

- Where are these preferences? I clicked everything under the control panel/printers tab that should be clicked. I don't see an option for monochrome or anything..........

- OK I just removed the black cartridge altogether to see what would happen. I removed it both physically and through cartridge preferences. It sounded like it was printing from the color cartridge, but nothing came out on the paper. It went through all the motions and everything, but it is blank. What the heck is going on?

- Let me also say I removed the color cartridge and cleaned the contact area with alcohol. Blue dye residue remained on the cotton swab but it isn't leaving any marks at all on the paper...................... uuugggghhh

Just because it’s new does not mean New Old Stock. Your print head is plugged. No if or buts about it. Contact HP and tell them you situation. If they don’t help you, box it up and take it back. Buy an Epson.
