Power resetting the printer, performing a manual and automated cartridge cleaning may resolve the issue. What's warm welcome to HP forums! This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips to your technical queries. If the printer is able to print in black & colors right during the cleaning of heads process, then i'm sure it's not the ink cartridges!

I'm running out of ideas of what's happening! I, also, tried to photocopy a page and print it. If i try to initiate a regular test page or an alignment page, it would still not print. It's strange that only when i'm cleaning the heads that i can print out the test page. However, if i try to print anything else, nothing comes out. After each cleaning cycle, a print page would come out. I tried cleaning the ink heads several times. The paper would feed properly, the printer would attempt to print (mechanically doing what it's supposed to do) but no ink is coming out.

I've tried printing a test page AND an alignment page but nothing was coming out. No error messages and no indication of low ink, jammed paper, maintenance, cartridge erros (i use original hp ink). Upon trying to print afterwards, the printer stopped printing all together. During the first try, it printed poorly in black ( i did not try color at the time).

I've recently upgraded my Mac to macOS High Sierra. It was off and disconnected during these months.
