... and the new printer isn't printing black ... AGAIN!

Let me guess what you computer nerds will say ... I just need a new printer.

Is it just a black document? or color? If it's just black, you can change the settings to greyscale or black/white. If it's mixed color and black, you might be low on your color ink. Most of them actually use a mix of colored ink to make black in a document that has color in it.

Hmmmm normally Cannons do that type of thing...

bad ink cartridge or maybe try wiping the copper leads side of the cartridge with a dry paper towel and re-seat the cartridge...

 

[Ericpwp]

Yeah, sounds like the black cartridge is out. All the colors together will make black, but some printers will not print that way. What is the model? I've seen some that will expire the cartridge and you have to press magic buttons to bypass the expiration.

I have a HP all in one and it is a piece of excrement. When I bought it it came yp with a print head error that kept me on the phone for hours several times. I finally brought it back to Office Depot and they replaced it no questions asked. They offered me full credit on any other printer or the same one I had. I really liked this one because when it worked it was exactly what I wanted. well to make a long story short this one did exactly the same thing.

HP S****.

I wish I had a video...

My dad started on the "falling snowflakes", while I was working on the "tree of lights".
1st step he did, assemble the 3 dimensional snowflakes.
2nd step, take a green string with nuts on the end for weights, and toss it over a branch. We anchor the snowflakes to this string, and pull them up.
Well, I have my back turned to him, and he starts laughing hard.
I turn around, and he has the string wrapped around the branch "Indiana Jones" style.
Usually it takes multiple throws to get it in the right spot.
He hit the right spot, then the string wound around the branch and anchored itself.

NEVER could have done it if we were TRYING. But we weren't.

Looking good so far. Granted, haven't seen it in the daylight, or with the lights on yet.

It's freaking cold out...

I might have to shoot indoors this weekend...

as much as I have supported Blythes, their indoor prices have kinda gone a little high for me. I'll stick to the 5 min drive to JP and freeze my walnuts off. Good cold weather practice for hunting

Well HP inkjets replace their print heads with each change of the ink cartridge. The print head is normally the issue with a inkjet as they become clogged with old dried ink or other stuff that attaches itself to the heads from the environment the printer is in. The IBM, Cannon, Brother, and Epson printers all use a separate print head which stays in the printer throughout the life of the printer so they normally have more issues with print quality or failure due to clogging of the head. The Epson's will actually do a maintenance cycle ever so often if the printer is left on all by itself...

Anyone know where I can get 393 batteries? they're little button batteries for my bore sighter which apparently got left on when it was put away.

 

[Ericpwp]

Walgreen's maybe?

All's I know is I went to batteries plus to replace a 2032 in a key fob that lasted 4 years. The new one it hasn't even lasted a year.

 

[2A_Tom]

Menard's carries a lot of button batteries, about ba two x three space.

I changed the ink and it doesn't fix the problem. I have spent over two hundred dollars for ink for this printer and several hours wit aguy o i cud nut unstan a dem wud e wus sain.

I only wish I had a place to put five pounds of tanerite under it.

Hot water heater? I'll come watch from a couple blocks away

 

[gunbunnies]

Well I'm always up to properly disposing of stuff... Just saying...

PCP, I got to drive a hour and a half to get there so if I'm not spending the whole day on the line it isn't too bad at the indoor...
