P-IV and Celeron, home networked, with a HP CSe895 printer on the
Celeron, but also serving the P-IV, etc. I have always been
disappointed with the "Black" color really being a very Dark Gray and
finally turning a Dark Blue when my color cartridge ran out of Yellow,
telling me that it wasn't using the Black cartridge when appropriate;
eg - when printing black text from Word , or black graphics from
Visual Basic and other programs. I have tried every conceivable
"tweak" from within the printer properties as well as the printing
programs but NG. How can I get the printer to use the Black cartridge
when Real Black [RGB = (0, 0, 0)] is being called for?!
