Changed all the cartridges but black doesn't print.
I did the cleaning mode, tried alcohol in an old cartridges, ran 100's of pages of black print to see if it would start printing. Had to cover the sensor, started saying no ink with a new one.
I not going to take the machine part unless it's a simple fix (I repair Medical equipment so I can perform some fixes). I'm tired of messing with this and very close to just getting a new printer. The off market ink was very affordable but don't know if this is what caused my problem.
Which printer do you recommend to replace this printer (if there's not other suggestion for a fix) with affordable ink or refillable ink?. Looking for an all-in-one (but don't really need fax, rarely used) maybe with wireless or networking. We never did got the networking to work with our router so the next setup I'd like to have all computers be able to print.
Thanks in advance for your time.

Driver could be corrupt.
Disconnect the printer or at least be sure it is turned off. I'd do both and reinstall the CD software program that came withthe printer. When the software program asks you to connect theprinter to the USB port, do so and it should again work properly.
Hope this helps. Bud

I reinstalled the cd software as instructed by black still did not work. Can you guys recommend a decent printer without expensive ink?
The black ink cartridge is full.
When I print, only the colors in the document print, but the black is left blank.
For example: I print out a Text document, the printer goes through the motion of printing.... but nothing is being printed onto the page.
Replaced the black ink and the printer will not print black. I did the cleaing routine but it still wont work. I see many other people having this same problem but no one has definitely posted a solution.
Does anybody know how to fix this?
