Printer continues to display "press enter to align cartridges". Have tried to do this several times, but only with negative results. Also, the black ink cartridge was empty so I bought a refill kit and followed the instructions to the letter. It's full but NO black ink comes out at all. Have cleaned it several times. Still nothing. Almost ready to get out the trusty hammer and destroy this thing. Can anyone help me?? Anyone???

You can also bypass the alignment. When the message for alignment displays on the display => Press Setup and Options (or Copy Options ) simaltanious.The last known alignment is used when the alignment is bypassed.
There is no doubt in my mind it Will be the cartridges you are using, alignment will continue to be requested if print out is missing bits do yourself a favour and use HP gen., not trying to plug HP just telling you the facts
