I just bought an IP3000 from Newegg and it won't print any black ink.
Any ideas?

BTW, when I was taking the labels off the ink cartridges I accidentally
took the entire label off the blank and yellow ones.. I didn't realize
it was just the orange part.

Return it and get another. And if you decide to do that get an IP4000
instead. It is worth the difference.

The cartridge police are on their way, hide under your bed.

My point was the label is actually a cover over the vent hole. Since
black is the color I was having trouble with doesn't it seem like a
strange coincidence that the one I removed the label from isn't working?

It's not a ink tank problem. Be sure you have the black tank firmly seated
and "clicked" into place. re-seat the tank/head assembly as well and make
sure you removed all the blue packing tape from the head assembly.

I am not specifically familiar with the Canon ink cartridge, but most
use that label as a method of controlling air flow, both to reduce
drying, and to allow the ink to flow more evenly or in lower amounts.
If you removed the whole label, the ink may have started to dry inside
the cartridge too much make it too think to get the head to deal with.

Art - You are on target with the label issue. In addition, you might get
too much ink flow. Sometimes flooding the recess around the print head
pickup area can also stop the color from printing. If the cart is new and
hasn't been open that long he can put a piece of tape over the vent, taking
care to not cover the very end of the channel that permits air to get to the
vent hole, remove the cart and gently clean around the ink pickup in the
print head if there is excessive ink, reinstall, run one light cleaning, and
see if it works.

I bet if they checked for missing tags on mattresses and the back of his tee-

I too just bought an IP3000 from Newegg and I spent about an hour last
night on the unpacking and set up. Everything was going well until it
got to the step: Print Head Registration. It had an error and I was
instructed to press a Resume button. It took a few minutes with the
online manual to locate the button. I tried the automatic Print Head
Registration again and got similar results: Three blue rectangular
spots on on a page of 8.5 x 11 in paper.
Then I tried manual registration. This time I got two stripes each a
different shades of blue plues two stripes each a different shade of
pink and one stripe of yellow. to the left of the stripes were grey
bars. Between the bars ( each on its on line) was
6C, 6C, 6M, 6M, 6Y. The help that followed indicated that there should
have been a black grid above the stripes.
For my last attempt of the night, I went to printer properties and
printed a test page.
All that printed was a windows logo of the flag with four colors.
Suggestions please: What do I try next?
Thanks in advance,
IanO

Check that you took off the orange plastic stuff like the manual said from
the print carts correctly.
Try reseating the carts.
Other than that, I dunno....try their website and help/support?
Good luck.
Oh, and if you have trouble with your rebate, ping me in austin.general and
I'll walk you through how to get their phone number.
