My printer count is higher than usual. My printer wasn't working and the count was printing blank pages.

Your printer's high page count due to blank pages indicates an issue with ink/toner, print heads, or drivers. First, check ink/toner levels and replace if low. For inkjet printers, run print head cleaning and nozzle checks. Ensure cartridges are properly seated and protective tapes are removed. Update printer drivers from the manufacturer's website and restart both the printer and computer. If issues persist, check the print spooler (Windows) and try printing from different applications. Resolving the underlying cause of blank pages will stop the unnecessary increase in your printer's count.

I fixed the printer, but I haven't been able to fix the number of pages that the system indicates that printed. How do I contact HP to correct the number of pages printed?
