Hi @Biosommers,
Welcome to the HP Support Community
I'd like to help!
I understand the printer does not print in red
To assist better-
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 device?
While you respond to that, let's print a Print Quality Diagnostic page -
- Load clean, white U.S. Letter or A4 paper in the input tray, if necessary.
- Touch and hold the Power button (
), and then press the Cancel button (
). - Let go of the Cancel button and then the Power button. The test page prints.
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.
