Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:

  • Are you able to make clear copies from the printer?
  • Are you using the appropriate paper for your print job?
  • Have you tried with different documents or files?

If you have already performed the steps from the document: Fixing Poor Print Quality and the issue persists, it could be a hardware failure. Please reach out to HP Support in your region regarding the service options for your printer. HP Support can be reached by clicking on the following link: www.hp.com/contacthp/

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
