When I print a document that has illustrations of any kind, the illustrations do not print, only the text.

@letucke1

 

The printer will not print graphical images. Try printing images/pictures and check the result.

 

  • Which application are you trying to print from?
  • Have you tried printing different types of documents like PDF, Word, or Webpages and check if the issue persists?

Run HP Print and Scan Doctor to diagnose and fix any driver issue

Click here to download the file. Once downloaded, make sure to run the file to start the installation and click on 'Fix printing'.

 

Let me know how it goes.

I have tried printing from Word, PDF, and EDGE browser = only text or a blank page out from the printer.

At one time I saw that I had a developer's print driver. How can I replace/update the printer driver?

HP Recommended

@letucke1

 

Remove/uninstall the HP printer driver from the computer in the control panel.

To know how, refer to this document.

 

 

Download and use the HP Smart app to print.

Refer to - HP printer setup (HP Smart app)

 

Let me know how it goes.
