@milesdavis2, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.

 

I understand the printer is printing blank pages. I believe you are using HP ink cartridges.

 

Try making a standalone copy in black and color from the flatbed glass and check if that works. By this, we can conclude if this is a hardware or a driver issue.

Insert one ink cartridge at a time and try printing to identify the defective ink cartridge. 

 

Perform the steps mentioned in this document - Fixing Print Quality Problems for the HP Deskjet 3050A (J611) All-in-One Printer Series

Clean the ink cartridges up to 2 times and print a test page to check the result.

 

Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.
