My HP J4580 will only print color. How do I fix it so the black will print?

Very strange error. I wonder if it is a driver issue? There were Microsoft Updates pushed out last night. Contact HP Support direct.

please send me 4 thumbs up

Checking ink levels

1. open HP solution center on the computer desktop screen
2. click on settings on the bottom
3. click printer toolbox
4. click the estimated ink levels tab

or

1. on the printer control panel,push the wrench button
2. press the right arrow to go to print report
3. push OK
4. select self test
5. push OK

It will print a page with color bars signifying correct ink levels.If a color bar is blank it means it's empty or depleted and needs to be replaced

Hi there

No sorry the printer will not work with just the black ink.

its all in simple math, when you go to by new ink cartridges it should tell you how many pages on average it should be able to print so price/page*15=cost to print a day

hi i dont have the tricolor cartridge in my hp 5610 and i want to work only with black cartridge and my printer says there is no cartridge on the left , is it posible to solve this problem and work with one cartridge only ? i can print but copy and fax doesnt work . thanx

lestave my j4580 trouble lt says ck blk cartrige

hi, 

its becoz even if ur print contains only black text in it, while printer printing in black it needs a cyan or yellow ink to give very clear print out. work around for this issue, go to the printer icon and right click and go printing preferances and change the option to print only in blak or print only in gray scale. it should resolve ur issue............
