Cigaro Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 My printer is reluctant to print any black, at all. I have replaced the cartidge, and cleaned them endlessly, but still nothing. Its a Tesco cartridge in it. Colour is fine, black isn't. Both are Tesco. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N User Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I had issues with a HP F380. It was **** and I gave it to Barnardos. In contrast to Jambovambo, i've never had a problem with an epson. Currently got an rx560 and it's top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
