Windows 10: Does not print black

I changed the cartridges but it does not print black. I printed the test page and blue comes out just fine but no black. What is wrong.

Black screen printing wingdings with high pitched tone.

Hello,

Black screen printing wingdings with high pitched tone can be due to outdated drivers. This can also be connected to hardware issue. For us to isolate and identify
if this is a hardware or software issue, we suggest to perform the Windows Hardware Troubleshooter.

To access the Hardware and Devices troubleshooter, follow the steps provided below:

• Type “Troubleshooting” in the Search bar and press Enter.
  
• Click on “View All” in the top left corner.
  
• This will display the list of troubleshooters which are built-in in the computer. You can click on Hardware and Devices from the list and you can run the troubleshooter.
  

Let us know if that worked out for you.

 

B&W printing problem

Print a photographic image with true black in it somewhere and see if it comes out correctly. If not, then yes, replacing your black ink cartridge should do it.

Edit: And yes, Namslas' suggestion is a good one, though I'd suggest alcohol instead of water.

 

Printing in Black

I am using an HP Officejet 4620 all in one printer and I am not able to print in dark black. I have run all of the recommendations that HP suggested. I have changed the ink cartridge even when there was still ink available. I checked that Grayscale was
turned off. I have also cleaned the printheads and done the alignment. If my document it typed in black, the printed page is in blue. Anyone have any suggestions?
