Did you try printing plain text from Notepad, or from a Command prompt?
The printer driver has a black only setting, you can try that too. Your
printer is similar in age and driver to my 882c so there's no reason other
than a defect/driver issue for it not to print from the black cartridge.
Unless the software you are using were designating a shade other than true
Black (0,0,0). The HP printer forums would be the place to inquire about
this problem.

Prints the test page just fine, except again the black is composit
full Yellow + Cyan + Magenta

How about when you print using the printer's 'Test' page option.

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?!
