So my printer only prints blank pages. I don't know why but the printer started doing this a while back and I have been spending 10 cents to print a sheet at other places and it's getting annoying. I have a HP Deskjet 3520 and I've tried everything I've found on the internet like cleaning the print head and aligning and that kind of stuff. Also the color printing works perfectly. I also switched the ink cartridge two times. I don't want to get a new printer so if any of you have any advice for me please reply.
