Ink cartridge, ink cartridge, why torture me so
I need to make copies but you’re running low
All those times when I just didn’t care
There was plenty of ink, everywhere
Now, when I need you to be there for me
You print so faint that I can barely see
I can’t run out and buy a one new right now
Please, can’t you just make me a miracle somehow
If you can get me out of this fix
Next order, I’ll get a package of six

I’ve just put ALL NEW cartridges into my printer, this EARLY morning, and it only spits out BLANK copies – Grrrrr – so now I have a job for today – finding out what is wrong and how to cure it – Grrrrr

Funny that you said that… when I put a new black cartridge in, it printed only BLANKS too… Must be that ink has a different sense of humor than we do.

I found that the printer head needed cleaning, luckily, when I tried the HP automatic cleaning, that did the trick, Annette – hope you got yours sorted 🤗❤️🤗

Thanks for sharing, Chris. I am certain we are part of a Universal family who find themselves at the mercy of technology at times. Good luck.

lol but believe me, ordering the bumper six-pack doesn’t work either.
I’m currently printing anything I need without yellow, because the cartridge has only been in a couple of weeks yet the yellow has run out. Tough.

Oh dear me… I am sending good mojo to ALL our printers. Mine decided to get its act together and everything is fine but I can’t figure out how, after changing the black cartridge (the only one I touched) I ended up with magenta all over my fingers.
