My color cartridge for my Lexmark 4200 Series Printer is not working?

How come it isn’t working? The Black Cartridge works just fine. The color one is full and the black one is mostly full.

If you don’t use the dcolor cartridge much, dried ink may be blocking the flow of ink to the print head. check the source link for detailed descriptions of possible solutions.


What color copier makes the highest quality copies?


I have several HP laser printers, and for color our HP Color Laserjet 4550 makes absolutely STUNNING color masterpieces.

For special projects, if you upgrade and use HP BROCHURE paper or HP MATTE paper, it is even more impressive.

Before we bought this particular commercial HP Color Laserjet 4550 off of EBAY from an authorized HP repair service center, what we previously owned HP Officejet couldn’t compare in terms of color consistency and superior color output…and I might add this color laserjet is super heavy like 90LBs and delivery was via FREIGHT on a pallet but the good news is the 4 TONER cartridges are readily avaialble at much better pricing on EBAY than lower cost HP Color Lasejets bec the supply is more readily available than more economically priced HP Laserjets and Color Laserjets that have a larger customer base outbidding each other to almost MSRP.

Hope the Above Info Helps!


What color inkjet printer will print on 2.25" continuous roll paper?

It’s plain paper (not thermal). We are printing small charts up to 10" long and we don’t want to waste paper or have to cut the width.

The Epson Stylus Photo 785 does.


Where to make cheap color copies?

I need to make about 1500 colored 11×16 copies/print outs and looking for a cheap place to do so. Any idea?
It would be 1500 copies of the same page and I already got quotes in but I still think that 35c a copy is to much for that amount of copies. Just thought there may be a online store or someone I haven’t thought of. I mean I went to like FedEx staples and UPS and stuff…

Are these 1,500 different pages to be copied, or 1,500 copies of a single page, or perhaps 100 copies of 15 pages?

Call or fax several local printers and office-supply stores with more details and ask for bids. If it’s 1,500 copies of a single page, you will pay a LOT less than if it’s 1 copy of 1,500 different pages.

i had a canon mf5770 scanner broke down and ink is smudging i had it only 13 months.

we print about 70 pages a day – letters normally. i need it to be a good scanner and soemthing that doesnt have paper jam’s all day long.
scanner frezzes halfway for 5-10 mins then goes through and scans -

very strange

the printer i can get new for £200 inc vat

call out charge is £80 plus VAT plus spares not worth it.

I’m very familiar with the canon that is a good machine you did not say what was wrong with the scanner other than it’s broke ? as for the smudging it probably needs a cleaning because of toner dust and that could also clear up your paper jam. I would re-think looking at another all in one I have worked on printers for over ten years and I would fix it. I have talked to all the printer manufacturers and by far canon has the best support and I have told them that. Find a good printer tech and let them look at it. good luck


Does low end color laser printers good for photo printing?

I’m planning to buy a $200 Samsung color laser printer tomorrow. I don’t know if it is worth it to buy it. I heard laser printers are not so good in photo printing that’s why I’m asking here.

So what should I buy? An inkjet or laser?

if it is a low end laser printer it probably would not print good quality pictures. check the print dpi of the printer before buying it if its 9600x 2400 it would give some really good quality pictures. it might be a bit hard to find a Laser printer with that print dpi. although there will be many inkjet printers with that feature.


Anyone know if Dell color laser printer 1320c toner cartridges are compatible with any other printers / brands?

Tried googling. These toner cartridges seem to only match this printer. I find it hard to believe they would match only one printer to one type of cartridge.

No. Not that I know of. I jsut checked my toner site. www.tonerworld.com.
The only thing I know about dell toner is you can only buy Brand Name Dell from Dell. You can buy there compatibles anywhere. I get mine at www.tonerworld.com


Do I have to have the color cartridge in the printer for the black cartridge to work?

I got a Lexmark X125 printer for free yesterday but it needs cartridges. All I really need is the black ink. Can I just put one cartridge(black) in or does it need also the color cartridge to run? Will it run with just one cartridge? It’s been a long time since I’ve even had a printer so I’m not sure and it doesn’t say in the booklet that came with it. Be blessed.

Just leave the color in the printer. Go to your preferences, and select "Print in back only". That’s it. Many printers need both cartrdiges in and even though it is empty, at least you can still print with the black only.


Can you recommend a specific color laser copier for metallic card stock?

I am interested in printing wedding invitations on metallic card stock. I would like to buy a color laser printer for under $600. Would love to know of a specific printer that works well for this kind of work. Not extremely high volume, just want great quality and no problems feeding the cardstock into the machine sucessfully. Thank you so much for your help : )
The metallic cardstock I am using is made for "laser printers" thanks.

Well, first you have to find out if this cardstock can even be used in a laser copier/printer.

Laser is a different technology than your standard ink jet and certain mediums can have issues with the fusing element in a laser device.

In other words, if it is not made for a laser printer it will likely melt during the fusing process.


Is it bad to always only print black and white word documents with a color inkjet printer?

as opposed to printing with a black and white laserjet printer

Nope, you’ll just be saving more money if you don’t print with color.
