CP1525n colour alignment problem

[Mike_D01]

This printer has been very reliable for a number of years but now has a problem with colour alignment.

On the Diagnostics page, the right angled lines on the top right are evenly spaced but on the top left they are irregular.

I have tried all the usual advice on this forum (ensure toner cartridges are not empty, run Calibration multiple times, factory reset etc. etc.) but it hasn't got any better.

What else can I do please? I've head about a NVRAM reset - might that help, and if so can someone send me the procedure please?

TIA

Mike

Hello, @Mike_D01- Hope you are well 🙂

Going through your post, I understand that you are facing issues with the color alignment on your LaserJet printer and is looking for the NVRAM reset.

I would provide you the steps to perform the reset. But, first off, try the steps listed here: http://hp.care/2p0IT51 Try the steps that you have not performed yet.

If the issue persists, then you can try and perform a reset on the printer. I am sending you a private message with the steps. Please check the mailbox icon at the top right corner of your screen to access your inbox.

Those steps should do the trick, let me know the outcome!

Hi Dvortex

I ran the NVRAM Reset then calibrated a coule of times but I'm sorry to report that it hasn't solved the misalignment issue when printing colour pictures.

Here's a scan of the diagnostics page. Please have a look at the right angle lines in the top left and right corners and tell me if they look wrong. I think they are supposed to be evenly spaced?

Hello, @Mike_D01

The alignment page looks fine to me. How about the print quality when you try to make a print from the PC?

If the print quality is fine, then continue using the printer for few days and then try the alignment again.

Thanks, I look forward to hearing back from you!

Hello Dvortex

OK I used the printer a few more times, ran the calibration routine again and now it seems to be back to normal when printing from the PC.

Thanks for your prompt and helpful replies.
