If your Printer Not Printing black ink, don’t panic. This is a common issue that usually has simple fixes. The first thing to check is your ink cartridge. Sometimes, even if it’s new, it might not be installed correctly. Remove and reinstall it securely to be sure.
Another culprit is dried ink. Printers left unused for weeks may develop clogged nozzles. Running a cleaning cycle through your printer settings often clears the block. If not, manually wiping the cartridge with a lint-free cloth can help.
Also, check your print settings. If “grayscale” or “color only” is selected, the printer may skip black. Adjusting settings to “black and white” usually fixes the issue.
If the problem continues, outdated drivers or firmware might be the cause. Updating them ensures your printer communicates properly with your system.
