I can not print anything with my black ink

My black cartridge ran out and I have replaced it. When I check the print head alignment the black doesn't not print on the first set of colour, the blue yellow and cyan do. On the next four lines down the black will print one line thrid row. I have tried all the cleaning methods on the printer I have turned it off and on. It will print in colour some shade of black and will print pictures just without filling in the black bits.....Please someone give me a clue lol. I am not overly great on printers.....Thanks
