Missing Magenta and light magenta blocks in print quality check.
I have tried printer head clean and alignment with no success. The document which is titled "Print Quality Dianostic says that "ink levels are okay" but I wonder if magenta isn't coming through somehow?
These are instant ink cartridges so it's a tri-colour cartridge which would contain this part. No idea how that works but I assume this is part of the issue.

Hi @peterp205,
Welcome to the HP Support Community
I understand you are facing a print quality issue with your HP Printer. Not to worry I will help you to get a resolution to resolve the issue.
To assist better:
- Does the copy print out the same way?
- What's the application you are trying to print from?
- Have you tried printing from a different application or device?
While you respond to that, let's print a Print Quality Diagnostic page -Post the Print Quality Diagnostic page here so we can help you further.
You may also refer to this document with steps to fix the " Print Quality Issues" issue applicable to your printer - Print Quality Issues
Also, try updating the printer's firmware - HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware
