Remove all cartridges, make sure any tape has been removed from over the nozzle. Ensure that everything has been installed properly, then use your printer (prompts on device, or in printer>control panel) to print some test pages, realign heads, etc.
what are you trying to print in black? the best way to test out a black ink is to open word pad and type some thing random and print it and see if that works. if you have a all in one printer u might have 2 inks one color and one black in the printer
One ovbious option would be to have a friend print it out. I assume that is not an option.
Some printers just won't let you print if a single color is out. Yes, stupid. Try printing a blank page. If it fails, there is no other option but to replace the cartridge or print elsewhere. If the blank page test works, this next option/test is worth a try... Depending on the app you are using, you can specify the color breakdown of the colors you are using. In your case, it is possible that the text is set to a rich black (4-color) rather than just black. If that is the case, to test this most quickly, make a new file, and create a new black (black2), set to 100 black, 0% other colors. Type a wor and set it to print in that color and try to print it. If that works, apply the same technique to your real document. Hope it works. I've been stuck in the same situation, and some printers will just not let you print if a single color is out. Good luck.

you have to go to the printer settings start printer properies ink or color than change to color because you can set your printer to print color or just black does not matter if that one has color if the setting is for black it will print just black
