Colour or Black Ink Not Printing

Check print settings and inkjet print quality.

    Check whether the job is set to colour, grayscale, or black only.

  2. Check paper and ink

    Use paper appropriate for the job and review the printer’s ink status.

  3. Print a quality report

    Use the diagnostic report specified for your model to identify missing colours or streaks.

  4. Follow model-specific maintenance

    Use the approved cleaning or alignment process. Avoid repeated cleaning cycles beyond the manufacturer’s guidance.
