Hi @Andie-12,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
I'd be happy to help you!
I understand that you are having issues with the color printing.
Check ink cartridges
- Low ink levels, using non-HP cartridges, and rough handling can cause print quality issues.
- Replace any non-HP or refilled cartridges with genuine HP cartridges. HP supplies are available from the HP Store and local retailers.
- HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP or refilled cartridges. Go to HP Anti Counterfeiting and Fraud Program for more information.
- Check ink levels. Low ink levels can cause print quality problems. From the home screen on the printer control panel, touch the Ink icon (
). The control panel displays the estimated ink levels.
- Rough handling of cartridges during transport or installation can cause print quality problems. Wait a few hours for the automatic servicing routine to complete, and then try to print again.
