HP photosmart C4480 all-in-one printer does not print photos

SOURCE: hp c4480 prints blue instead of black

Check the print properties and verify the black ink cartridge still has ink in it.

Otherwise, you may have a bad ink cartridge. If the cartridge has not been used for a while, the ink gums up the nozzle. You can try cleaning the ink cartridge and slot with alcohol. However, new color and black cartridges may be the best solution.

SOURCE: I just got a hp photosmart c4480 printer and it makes black and white copies, but I can't figure out how to print in black and white like when I am on a web site.

When you tell it to print, especially if you are printing a web page or something else in color that you want in B&W, don't hit the print icon. Instead choose 'file' 'print' and a screen should pop up with options. Choose properties,or page setup and you should find options for printing in color,grayscale, B&W etc.

NOTE: If you have colored paper loaded in the input tray when you align the print
cartridges, the alignment will fail. Load unused plain white paper into the input

3. In the Print Settings area, click Printer Toolbox.

When the On button stops flashing, the alignment is complete and the page can be
removed. Recycle or discard the page.
