Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

Did this also happen with your old inks? Does this also happen with copies?

 

Let us know 🙂

 

Thanks!

Hi Betty, thanks for your reply and sorry for the delay in writing to you but I was away from home. 
The cartridges are new, original and just purchased. 
I tried to make a copy in black and white but the result is a completely blank page, so it doesn't print. 
While in colour the result is what I have already sent you, of very bad quality.
I tried to align the printheads and the result is that it only writes with red ink, giving me an error message (but the paper I use

is common white paper). I tried cleaning the heads but the result is very bad and does not improve. 
What can I do now ?
