I fell back on that picture in the example just in case it WAS something I did to the photos, which I'm pretty sure I didn't.Īs I said in the first post, ANYTHING I print on normal paper, including that test pic, that has black in it, shows up just fine, as it's supposed to. The black problem is not only in LR, it's with every program I can print a photo with, that was a part of the series of 50+ test prints I did. What I saw on-screen, is what the printer produced.Ĭurrently I can't afford one of those calibration tools, and have been asking around to borrow or even rent one, with no luck so far. I'll give back the 6510e, and losing wireless functionality, just order a new HP Photosmart D5460.ĭamn, looks like the D5460 model is no longer to be had anywhere.Ĭletus, I don't have a calibration tool, I am going by eye with known colors, I had my monitor and the old printer pretty much in harmony, You'd think using all originals would be best, but nooooooo, not a chance.Īctually, I'm thinking, if when these people get back to work and I call, if they don't get the situation rapidly resolved, So, figure that one oout if you can, because I certainly don't get it! My last printer, a HP Photosmart D5460, I used an external CISS with it, this one (click to view),Īnd as you can see, it was NOT original HP ink, although I was using original HP Paper,įrom the same batch I still have and used for the new printer actually, and I got extremely close to perfect lab quality prints. The odd thing here is, I am using original HP ink, and original HP Advance Photopaper, yet I get those results. No reply on HP's own forums as yet, and the people where I purchased it, a local HP Partner,Īre not back at work yet, as of this evening anyways. I've googled this for about an hour last night, and cannot find anything relevant.īecause, as said, photo prints (up to A4 size) are the main reason I bought this printer, and I DO like the printer,īut if it can't print a decent black on photoprints, then it's useless to me. Or will I have to return the printer and get a different one? Is this ink immediately turning brownish/fading a known problem, does anyone know a fix for it, Keep in mind, I am using all original HP supplies and hardware, and the original picture is untouched by me. The best results (the ones in the third thumbnail) I got were with the settings in thumbnail 1 below. With prints on normal paper, the black is just fine.Īfter running a series of tests, and using up 50 pages of 10x15's and all the yellow and cyan ink, So the problem is nothing I did to the picture. The original picture is untouched by me, and was selected purely for the purpose of this test, There were VERY minor differences, but none come even close to the original picture. I've gone through 50 prints now, trying all kinds of various settings, NOTHING has helped. When I print a photo on any quality settings, it looks fine when it comes out of the printer, BUT,Īfter about 60 seconds when it's dried, the blacks look almost brown, that is, it looks faded. Using original 10x15cm HP Advanced Photo Paper and the supplied original HP Ink cartridges, HOWEVER, I only just had time today to test out the REAL reason I bought it, photo prints. I got the above printer about a week ago, it is printing documents and color documents just fine. Photosmart 6510e - Black ink fading almost to brown
