When I print documents they will be a little bit blurred. I want them sharp and correct. How can I calibrate my laserprinter?

What´s wrong?

Every printer has calibration options.  Check out the user manual for your model for clarification on the steps.  Before you jump into calibrations you might want to run a few experiments to confirm if it is a physical printing problem or a document quality problem.

Few tasks you will want to compete to help you isolate the quality problem:

1. Print a report directly from the control panel of the printer.  There should be a demo page, configuration report or something you can print without the assistance of a PC, driver or software.  See your user manual for the report options.

2. Print a new test document from scratch.  Compare the results between the new and the old documents.

3. Print the same document from another application if possible.  For example a picture from MS Paint, Word, Adobe or another image viewer. Compare the results.

4. Print a variety of file types and compare.  Try to isolate the problem down to specific types like .PDF, .TIFF, .PNG, etc. for more specific solutions.

Pending on what you find you can attempt the following suggestions:

1. Calbrate the printer

2. Try a different print driver

3. Reset the application settings

4. Reinstall with the latest software update from HP

5. Contact the owner of the document with defects for a higher quality copy
