First of all I can't get to Virtual Agent. Problem is that I get blurred, partially printed lines. I'm on/was on free ink and don't want to be charged for their bad printing but do want to print.
Most frustrating interaction I've had in a while.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Embarrassed to say that printer cleaning of print heads and for smears fixed the printer problem.
But never could get to virtual assistant. Kept getting 404 errors.
Thanks,
Jeff

Hi @JeffShu,
I'd like to help!
To better assist you -
1) Does the copy print out the same way?
2) What's the application you are trying to print from? Have you tried printing from a different application or devices?
While you respond to that, let's print a Print Quality Diagnostic page -
-
Load the printer with plain white paper.
-
On the printer control panel, swipe left on the display, and then touch Setup .
-
Touch Tools.
-
Swipe up on the display, and then touch Print Quality Report.
Post the Print Quality Diagnostic page here so we can help you further.
You may also refer to this document with steps to fix " Print Quality Issues" issue applicable for your printer - Print Quality Issues
Also, try updating the printer's firmware - HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
