How to increase darkness on transparencies

Hi,

What are the best settings to produce the darkest color print on clear transparencies.

Hello, @nveigm - Hope you are well 🙂
 

Thanks for stopping by the HP Support Forums! I’d like to help with the printer issue!

Going through your post, I see that you are trying to increase the darkness while printing. You need to select the “Best” quality in the printing preferences to get the darkest print. Check the steps below:
 

• Go to Control Panel – Devices and printers.
• Right-click on LaserJet and select “Printing Preferences”.
• Check the print quality tab and select the best quality.
• Save the settings.

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

Good luck 🙂

Thank you for all your suggestions. After talking with support we found the need to increase the density settings using the HP Toolbox. This greatly helped and now the transparencies print deeper and richer in color.

For our needs we increased color contasts to 4 and highlights to 2.

Thanks once again.
