Is it printing text when

Is it printing text when grayscale isn't checked?

Also, are one of your black cartridges empty?

Best bet would be to try a few of the printer's maintenance tasks like cartridge cleaning and printhead alignment to ensure there is nothing blocking the cartridges from printing.
