HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M283cdw

My HP Color Laserjet Pro MFP M283CDW printer started printing faintly late last year.  We only print sporadically so I'm not sure exactly when the problem began.  When the black toner cartridge got low I replaced it with an HP original.  (We've previously replaced a few toner cartridges without any issues.)  However the printing is still faded, and it's happening with the color toners as well.  The printer is not quite 3yrs old, and was printing fine this time last year.  I've followed the troubleshooting instructions listed in other posts with similar issues.  Nothing resolves the problem.  I've noticed that HP reps have been offering PM responses in the other cases.  I'd like to know what my options are, as our printing needs are infrequent but still important.
