When I try to print a document from word processor my printer will not print the document. I have just put new colored/black ink in the printer, but it still doesn't print.
Does it even try to print, or does it just sit there? If it tries to print and nothing appears on the paper, try removing the cartridges and re-installing them. (Note, however, that if they are not completely seated the print heads dry out and you may get streaky printing and will have to replace them.)
If the printer does not respond at all there are two possibilities. First, you need a new printer. Second, the computer is not communicating with the printer. This can be caused by bad wired or wireless connection or by the printer setting in your PC.
You can always take the PC and printer to a computer store and have them figure out which of these possibilities is the right one.

Yes, this printer has fixed printheads and must have ink in each color to prevent damage to the printheads. Even when printing black only each color is spit in the servicing area to keep the printhead unclogged.

To solve the
printing problem..
# Hold the cartridge upside down, with the
bar-code label facing you and take a damp paper towel.
# Use the towel to wipe the printhead of the
cartridge on the bottom (where the ink comes out). Wipe the printhead
horizontally in one direction only (left to right).
# Continue doing this until it looks clean.
# Then dab the cartridge on the towel to make sure
the ink is flowing.
# Next, look inside the printer and locate the
carrier that holds ink cartridges. Caution: Make sure the cartridges are not
installed at this point.
1. Look for a shiny piece of metal underneath the
contacts at the back of the carrier.
2. Take a damp cotton swab (use water only!) and
wipe along the bottom of the shiny metal piece. Note: You may need more than
one swab.
# Reinstall the cartridges, making sure you snap
them correctly into the printer.
Hope this help. Please

You need to take it a couple steps further after your test print. Sounds like your print heads need cleaning or your cartridge may need aligning. It’s best to do this each time you install a new cartridge. for more information….... http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-40171-printer-not-printing-black
