HP DeskJet 2722 All-in-One Printer
iOS

Pulled out a (new to me) Deskjet out of my closet. A forgotten Xmas gift. Setup went OKish, but have two problems:

1. Alignment fails after I place alignment sheet in scanner. Alignment print looks ok. Tried repeating to no avail. Tried unplugging to reset, cleaning ink cartridges etc. Nothing worked.

2. Printer now doesn’t print. I was initially able to successfully print out a test sheet and a photo from my phone. But nothing now. The pages now come out with a smudge of print on the top of the page and nothing else.

 My ink levels are low, but not empty. I am guessing the cartridges that came with the printer are not full size? Could I be out of ink already? I joined the Instant Ink trial. Hopefully the new cartridges will be the answer. 🤷🏻‍♀️

 

Any troubleshooting tips, suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
