My printer works PERFECTLY except when it comes to printing only the portion of a page that contains a barcode. That portion is shadowed/blurry and unreadable by the post office/UPS. The text above and around those sections are fine, just the labels themselves (and the text within the labels).

This started randomly a few months ago and is torturing me. I have updated all the drivers, restarted everything, run cleaning pages, searched high and low online (found a few threads describing this problem but no solutions) without success. It happens with multiple websites (Amazon, etc) and whether from my phone to wirelessly to my printer of from my MacBook. Doesn't seem to matter. 

What gives?!?!!?
