Why would you print on a black paper ? There is a sensor at the printhead carriage at the underside scanning for the paper edges, and this most likely does not work with black paper which is not reflecting enough light back. You have a similar effect with transparent foils which are not seen by the sensor either, so you need a white leading edge to overcome that issue e.g. a piece of a white removeable strip of tape.
