Nobody here insinuated that you were stupid. We all make those little mistakes that often get overlooked.

It could very well be a bad print head. Are they that expensive that's it more cost effective to buy a new printer?

That is odd that it wont print the color parts while it's in black and white mode.

I was going to suggest when starting the print and the printer window pops up, double check the settings in there to make sure it's set in black and white mode and not color, but I didn't want to insult you again.
