Print colour does not match original image

[terrynotgarry]

The print colour (image 1) does not match that of the original image (image 2). I have the latest drivers & the cartridges are brand new.

OK...

After the printer has already passed all its Print Quality checks,

If the print is not as wanted,

The image file can be edited using either HP Smart, Microsoft Photos, or a more sophisticated photo editing software.

Reference >> HP DeskJet, ENVY, OfficeJet 5000, 5200 printers - No black ink, wrong colors, other print quality is...

NOTE

HP Smart and Microsoft Photos employ a nearly identical tool set -- I do not know if edit results would also be identical.

The best and more complete control is derived from a true photo editing software -- the printed output, of course, is still interpreted by the printer.

Example - HP Smart - Windows - Scan > Scan content OR Import Image file > Tool Set > Adjust

HP_Smart_Win_Scan_Edit_Image_Set_3

Example - Microsoft Photos - Edit Options > Adjust

Note the example is from an older version of the Photos App -

The options are likely the same

Photos_Edit_Options_Adjust_1

Example - Irfanview (Windows) - Color Correction

Irfanview_Print_Color_Correction_2
