Workforce 610. The color cartridges are fine but the black is not printing right (Missing lines). Head cleaning doesn't work, any workaround/fix?

Based on my experience, I would suggest throwing these away and get some other cartridges with better reviews. It's probably only a matter of time before the color cartridges start clogging your print nozzles. In my case it took new cartridges and several head cleanings to restore the printer.

I had the same problem. In my case, it wasn't the cartridge. I eventually purchased another printer.

o, just push it in. If you find it prints funny, such as missing out lines, just take out the cartridge and reinsert it. i found that happened when I changed the black one.

Talk the cartage out " black & color " and reinstall again and see if the ink levels are displayed and where the levels are shown . Make sure that the printer window is set on photo print / copy's in color not black n white . I am not fully educated on this printer , check the instructions to make sure you / me are doing it correctly. I hope this helps ..

I am not able to print in B&W; if any of the colors are out, it is probably the most frustrating aspect of this printer. I've tried specifying black and white, I've tried removing the empty color cartridge, etc. it refuses to print and just shows an error that the cyan (or whatever color it may be) is out of ink.

If any cartridge, after refill, is not recognized as being full, its a matter for the manufacturer to resolve. I would try to contact the manufacturer for a solution or a replacement. Missing colors suggest a clogged print head. I would suggest performing the various cleaning procedures described in the printer's owners manual which is often available on the manufacturer's website.

At least the black cartridge DOES NOT WORK on my J870DW printer. Thinking the first one might be a dud, tried a second one. That too didn't work.

Why won't printer print in black. Cleaned heads several times and nothing helps. All ink cartridges are over half full. Colors print great, but black won't print. Not an answer, the same question as asked before. Can't find answer to question someone else asked.

I have now used 1 full black and started a 2nd and it all comes out as true black. If someone is having that problem it's most likely because they have their printer set wrong. If you try to print in black but the cartridge is empty or not installed correctly the printer tries to make the black using the color ink.

I had same exact problem, Office Max told me printer heads need cleaned. You have to take it semi apart to pull out heads.. Very frustrating..

Well, mine quit printing yellow completely when I tried a non-OEM cartridge, so I would say no. I am beyond disgusted with this machine. Not only will it not print yellow now, but even the black is messed up--sort of a purple color. My printer is now useless, and naturally I can't find any tech support that is worth anything. :( NOT happy.

I got the same error code. I checked the ink levels & found that the black was low & needed replacing.

Well it could be a few things. First, Did you run a print alinement or select clean printer heads . Or you may have just ordered the wrong cartridges

Had one black cartridge that appeared possibly defective. Just let printer do a cleaning and all was well. Hope this helps.

I have not had this problem, when my ink runs low I pick either blk or color to make my copies. The printer has 2 black so it should still work, try pressing the color button to copy.

My black cartridge is low right now (though not empty) and the printer is working. I haven't needed customer support at all because set up and installation went very smooth for me so I can't answer that question.

The printer could not print in color or even grey scale. Solid Black printing worked fine. A print test would only show the solid black print. The print head was plugged with dried ink and would not flush. After replacement and alignment, the printer now works as it should.

You can try taking the print head out and cleaning it, but I have not had good luck with it fixing it. Sometimes it helps and then the next time I use it, it won't print black again. Basically, these are useless printers. The print head is about $50 to buy a new one and they don't last very long. I'm limping along with this and then I will buy a different brand. Sorry. Maybe cleaning it will get you a little more use.
