HP Envy 6234 Printer Printing Crooked / Slanted / Skewed

[Mrs_Smith1]

Hi, recently my HP 6234 printer has started to print artwork slanted. I have completed the alignment process, but it has not helped. Any ideas how to fix this? Thank you

@Mrs_Smith1, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

• Was the alignment successful?
• Which application are you trying to print from?
• Have you tried printing different types of documents like PDF, Word, or Webpages and check if the issue persists?
• Try making a standalone copy and check if that works. By this, we can conclude if this is a hardware or a driver issue.

For now, let us try these steps to resolve this issue: 

Reset the printer

1. With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
2. Wait at least 60 seconds.
3. Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.
4. Turn ON the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.
5. Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you proceed.

Note: HP recommends connecting the printer directly to a wall outlet rather than a surge protector or a power strip.
