Title: Cannon Printer
Post by: petemily on July 31, 2006, 01:55:05 PM

 :-? I don't know if this is the right place to post this question, but here it is.
I have a Canon S400 printer.  I replaced the black cartridge.  Now the black isn't printing. I checked to nozzel and all the colors but black printed.  Can any one help?  THANKS1

what happens when you print a test page?

Did you replace the cartridge with another empty cartridge?  :)

 :-? It is a full cartridge - ink on my hands.  When I go to Maintaince it has check nozzel and align cartridges.  Align cartridges prints a totally blank page.  No colored bars to align.  I couldn't find printing a test page.

petemily.....  Well , have you tried removing the problematic cartridge and reseating it ? .
Have you tried checking to be 100% sure you removed the tape covering the end of the cartridge ?    You wouldn't be the first person to forget that ......

And also try running the cleaning cycle.  It might be a blob of dried up ink that needs clearing.
