Hi @Irb1,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

To clean the printheads on your HP Envy 6055e printer, you can use the printer's built-in cleaning feature. Here’s how.

Using the Printer's Control Panel

Turn on the Printer: Make sure the printer is powered on and has paper loaded.

Access the Control Panel: On the printer's touch screen, swipe down to access the dashboard.

Navigate to Maintenance:

• Go to Setup (gear icon).
• Select Tools.
• Choose Clean Printhead or Printhead Cleaning.

Follow On-Screen Instructions: The printer will begin the cleaning process. This may take a few minutes.

Check the Print Quality:

• After the cleaning process, the printer will usually print a diagnostic page. Review it to see if the print quality has improved.
• If the print quality is still not satisfactory, you can repeat the process up to three times.

Using the HP Smart App (Windows or macOS)

Open HP Smart: Launch the HP Smart app on your computer.

Select Your Printer: From the home screen, select your HP Envy 6055e printer.

Go to Printer Maintenance:

• Click on Printer Maintenance.
• Choose Clean Printheads.

Start the Cleaning Process: Follow the on-screen instructions to clean the printheads.
 

Note:

• Avoid Frequent Cleanings: Repeated cleanings consume ink, so only do it when necessary.
• Use Genuine Ink Cartridges: Using non-HP ink cartridges can sometimes cause printhead issues. Genuine HP ink is recommended.
• Print Regularly: Printing a page or two every few days helps keep the printheads from clogging.

If these steps don’t resolve the issue, the printheads may need a deeper cleaning or replacement.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
