black ink won't print, but colored ink will???

[Kristen]

Help! My black ink won't print, but my colored ink will? I have a newer
cartridge with plenty of ink and it was working fine and now it is not. How
do I fix this? Tried resetting, unplugging, rebooting, pulled ink out and
put back in, etc. Thanks!

If that black cartridge has never printed corrected, remember that it could
be a bad unit and need replacing. Another thing to do is change the cable
from PC to printer. And as ever, uninstall and reinstall correctly.

What printer model? The debugging methods vary quite a bit depending on
whether the cartridge has an integrated printhead or a fixed printhead.
