HP Printer help

[smitch320]

What gives?

Printer tells me I am low on ink, go and get a new cartridge, 35 dollars later I am still not printing.

HP 5520.

Did you replace the right ink cartridge? Color vs black? Did you buy the right cartridge for your printer? A lot of cartridges have a clear tape over the electric parts of the cartridge. Did you remove it???

[smitch320]

Yep. Black ink cartridge was "low" replaced the black cartridge. The color cartridges are low but I am not needing color printed.

I ran all the tests, and all that bullshit and it still does not print black.

Try going into printer setting and change to greyscale then click black only and see what it does

Print head is bad. Just happened to me. Printer is toast

[YoungBuckTX]

Unplug from the wall for a hard reset is good to try

[smitch320]

Yea I am thinking the printer head is toast.

I did a hard reset, cleaned the head how they told me to, blah blah blah.

Fuckin printer was always a piece of shit anyways.

Thanks guys!

Any good printer brands out there?? Every HP i've had seemed shitty to me.

Just went through this less than a year ago. You'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't buy yourself an Epson workforce printer. Best damn printer/scanner/copier I've ever owned. Endorsed by Kim komando

[smitch320]

Any particular model? In college so I don't have much extra in the way of funds, especially for a damn printer lol.

[reeltight]

Any Epson wf printer will be fine. Seriously...any of them. I think they start out at about $200????

[DRDUCK]

We got the cheapest HP they make Deskjet 1000, works like a charm once we could find the driver for it. 19 bucks

Epson workforce

I have never had an HP printer that didn't suck, never had any printer that didn't suck but so far Epson is the best.

Get a laser printer and be done with it.

[YoungBuckTX]

we just got a new Brother wireless laser printer. scanner, copier, monochrome. It's great so far for small jobs.
