Printer Alignment Issues Despite Having Ink

[WinOris]

Hi,
I’m experiencing alignment and printing issues with my HP printer, even though I’ve recently replaced the ink. Alignment keeps failing and The prints quality is terrible, there's no ink on paper and if any it is light. I’ve tried basic troubleshooting steps, but the problem persists.

Has anyone encountered something similar or have tips on how to resolve this? Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hello, Thanks for your reply.

I use a macbook and cannot download the doctor tool. I have used the HP Smart app and tried to resolve issues but nothing. I have also looked at links

@WinOris, Thank you for the response.

I recommend printing some test pages to see if the issue persists while doing so.

Also, you can try to factory default the printer. You may refer to this guide Restore factory defaults on your HP printer | HP® Support

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
