I have a hp psc 1610 all in one when i make a copy the page is all black why

Open flat bed, remove scan camera, clean internal reflector glasses with ear buds to clean dust on it, as well as clean flat bed glass with galss cleaner both sides fix it back, check copy & scan...

NO, I DID NOT GET IT FIXED. YOU TOLD ME TO SCAN SOMETHING TO THE PC, WHICH I DID. SENT PAGE TO MICROSOFT WORD AND THE BLACK LINE WAS STILL THERE. I BELIEVE MY SOLUTION IS TO JUNK THIS THING AND BUY ANOTHER.

My HP Psc 1610 all in one can print & copy but can't scan. I already installed the driver for Windows 7

Black - #94

Tri-color - #95 or #97 (#97 yields more pages)

Photo - #99

Thanks for using Fixya.

PS. Here is the page of available cartridges if in US. PSC1610 Ink

Is it a new genuine cart? If so, I have had this problem. Run multiple copies of black only text, Run 50 copies, will still spit out blank pages.Then head clean. If no black repeat. I did this for around 200-250 copies then Volia! black. Hope this helps

I assume that you mean color images are being produced in black and white. If that's the case, there's a document on the HP web site that shows you what to look for and provides solutions:

Color Image Prints in Black and White

Good luck.

HP.com has a few web pages that might help. One is a general troubleshooting page that you can review and the other specifically addresses the issue of "white lines" in a copy:

Troubleshooting Copying Issues

White Lines Through Copies

Read through both web pages and see if there's a suggestion that will help solve your problem. Good luck.

your colour cartridge would be empty check that first or u r not pressing colour button while copying.try this.if this solution helps u rate it as "fixya" to encourage us to solve more and more problems like yours. good luck.

The light source has failed thus the original is not being illuminated.
The copier thinks you are copying a black piece of paper.

Printing from the PC does not require any light source, therefore printing is not affected.

Check your manual to see if it mentions a replacement routine; if not, and if it is no longer under warranty, you are maybe stuck with tossing it or taking to your friendly neighborhood techie who is trying to pay his rent.

The tech support at HP said its a hardware issue, especially if the following test results in a black page:

1) Open cover
2) Push scan button

if the bulb doesn't come on or the page is still black its a hardware issue.
