Hi @Wendy734,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I'd be happy to help you! 

 

I understand that you are having issues with the print quality. 

 

Perform the following tasks in the order given. Use the printer after each task to see if the issue is resolved.

Run the automated ink cartridge cleaning tool

  • Clean the cartridges to resolve print quality issues including incorrect colors, streaks, and faded prints.
  • Load plain white paper in the tray.
  • On the printer control panel, swipe left on the display, and then touch Setup.
  • Touch Tools, and then touch Clean Cartridges.
  • A Print Quality Diagnostic report prints.

Example of a Print Quality Diagnostic report

  • Review the page for defects and any instructions to resolve the issue. Run two more cleaning cycles, if necessary.
