happy new year all! have a dell 920 all in one printer that won't print
or copy with the black ink cartridge. page just comes out blank. if
there is any color on the page it prints it in color, but skips
anything black. i actually have two 920's and swapped the black ink
cartridge in one for the other and got the same results. uninstalled
and reinstalled the printer driver/software, but to no avail. put the
color cartridge in the black ink slot in the printer itself and it
printed in color. tweaked out, of course(hope i didn't harm anything)
but still, ink did come out in a uniform manner. so why won't my
printer print/copy with the black ink cartridge? i have checked and
rechecked all settings and adjustments and everything seems on the up
and up. and as i said above, i've tried two black ink cartridges(they
both work in one of my 920's)and neither work in the printer i'm having
problems with. i would assume printer/hardware defect if the
problematic 920 was used very much. but it has hardly been used at all.
and as i said, the color cartridge prints when inserted in the slot
reserved for the black ink cartridge. any input would be greatly
appreciated. thanks ahead of time.
