HP Envy 6000 Unable to print black ink
Color prints fine, it's just the black that doesn't work. I works fine in my Windows partition, but not in Arch. Both color and black ink are recognized in HP Device Manager.
I have installed the following packages to try to get this working:
cups cups-pdf hplip pyqt5 libusb-compat sane wget
Here is my hp-check -t:
/usr/bin/
if 'getfacl' not in g and '' is not g and 'file' not in g:

This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
This is free software, and you are welcome to distribute it
under certain conditions. See COPYING file for more details.
Note: hp-check can be run in three modes:
1. Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper dependencies are installed to successfully compile HPLIP.
2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied tarball has the proper dependencies installed to successfully run.
3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time dependencies).
Check types:
a. EXTERNALDEP - External Dependencies
b. GENERALDEP - General Dependencies (required both at compile and run time)
c. COMPILEDEP - Compile time Dependencies
d. [All are run-time checks]
