I recently purchased a new computer and since then I have had trouble with the print quality.  Once I installed the updated firmware the printer locked up and would no print l I uninstalled the "latest software" and reinstalled the older version of firmware.  I am using and have been using NON HP cartridges.  HP_LaserJet_Pro_M280_M281_Printer_series_20200612 firmware.  The only problem seems to be the quality of the print.   Color photos look faded and dull.  the printer was purchased recently, and I don't see any hardware issues.Memphis.jpg
