</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Did you check that the printer itself prints a testpage correct

</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Agreed. If you haven't checked it, try making a black copy. I know that
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> if I don't use my Officejet for 2-3 months, the black can stop flowing.
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Generally, removing the cartridge and dabbing the nozzle area with a
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> damp paper towel is all that's needed to get it going again.
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> How could I test that the printer itself is working?  That is what the
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> &quot;Test Page&quot; is for.
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>    From some distributions (Fedora 14, I think) it does print black, but
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> that was missing something else - text I think.
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Look at the manual, normally you hold down one key during powerup of
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> the printer, and it starts to print a selftest, which is builtin to the printer
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> itself.
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> You can also print a diagnosis page with supply materials information
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> and how many pages the printer already did and such. Should be in the manual.
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> If you can't find it, report back here and i'll find it for you.
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> There are two &quot;manuals&quot;.  One is a sheet of paper and the other is
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> slightly better.  Also, there is a CD.  I can't even get an alignment
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> page printed.  :-(
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Check:
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&amp;cc=us&amp;taskId=110&amp;">http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&amp;cc=us&amp;taskId=110&amp;</A>
</I>&gt;<i> prodSeriesId=4027462&amp;prodTypeId=18972&amp;prodSeriesId=4027462&amp;objectID=c02061863
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Mentions both Windows and Mac.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Method one: From the product control panel
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>       1. Make sure there is plain white, letter-size paper loaded in the input tray.
</I>&gt;<i> I hope that A4 is near enough.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>       2. On the product control panel, hold down the Power button (O), and then
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> press the Cancel button (X) once.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>       3. Release the Power button.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>       4. The self-test report prints.
</I>&gt;<i> No success on that sequence.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> The link i gave also explains which cartridge prints what on that self-test page
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> and common printing defects.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> But IIRC you should also be able to do some maintenance (cleaning nozzles,
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> align ink cartridges) from one of the hplip tools (hp-toolbox or so)
</I>&gt;<i> I have no idea which rpm it is in, or what the executable files are
</I>&gt;<i> called, but there is a HP tool in the main menu structure.
</I>It's inside hp-gui, which is always installed for an  HP printer.
&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> It would appear that the black cartridge _partially_ works.  I have
</I>&gt;<i> tried to clean it.  Everything _might_ be fine if I just buy another
</I>&gt;<i> black cartridge.   ...then again, the printer as a whole has not
</I>&gt;<i> been proved to work.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> The local pricing structure is that the manufacturers give away
</I>&gt;<i> low end printers when you buy two cartridges.  So, it is time
</I>&gt;<i> to print some &quot;ordinary&quot; stuff and if it works well enough
</I>&gt;<i> buy a black cartridge, or a printer.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> If all doesn't work: Can you copy a page with colors and black directly on your
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> printer?
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Does the copy come out OK?
</I>&gt;<i> Color photocopies look OK, black ones (sometimes) come out white.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>Then you definitely got a problem with the black cartridge or the printhead.
