printer will not print text, only prints .jpg

As you'll judge by the lack of responses, you don't give a lot of background info. But, for a start have you installed it correctly using the manufacturer's driver disks & following the installation instructions? "I know that I'm mad - I've always been mad..."

1 empty ink cartridge? 2 For some reason the black ink cartridge wasnt letting out any ink. Shaked it really hard or hot water on the jet ends 3 check the program for only printing in colour and change it to black only 4 bad cartridge refilled 5 clean printer heads and test paper new cartridge 1remove the tape and rubber plugfrom the ink port holes on the underside of the cartridge. 2several print head cleanings may be required in order to achieve proper quality http://www.atlex.com # Use your printer at least once a week. # Never let the cartridge run dry. As soon as the ink quality starts to deteriorate, stop printing. Ink flowing through the print-head keeps it cool. When ink does not pass through the hundreds of tiny nozzles on the print-head, it burns out, rendering the cartridge non-refillable. # Remove empty cartridges from the printer and attach a piece of moist (not wet) paper towel to the side of the cartridge with an elastic band (ensure that paper towel doesn't come in contact with the print-head or metal contact). Store and transport the cartridge in a zip-top bag. # Do not replace the original tape back over the print-head, as it will mix the colors inside. # Do not run the printer for long periods of time, ink-jet printers are made for small print jobs, and printing more than a few dozen pages at a time can cause print-head burnout and render your cartridge non-refillable
