Print quality issue

[VSSDot]

Hi, I'm having print quality issues and would be grateful for some guidance.

I've run the 3 level print head clean 3 times but the print quality page is still showing major problems with print quality. Printhead health is showing as good.

Any ideas as to how I can rectify this?

Thanks on advance.

Hi @VSSDot,

Good Day.   Thank you for stopping by the HP forums. I reviewed the post regarding assistance for print quality issues with the printer. I will be glad to assist you here.

Superb description and splendid diagnosis of the issue before posting. Kudos to you for that.

• Did you try to make copies directly from the printer without any communication from the computer?
• Did you replace cartridges and check if the issue persists?

For a start please make a couple of copies directly from the printer both from the flatbed and document feeder without any communication from the computer.

If the print quality issues continue, please perform all the prescribed l steps from this link: https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-officejet-pro-8500a-e-all-in-one-printer-series-a910/4083864...  for print quality issues.

If the issue continues, try with a different set of cartridges. If it still does not fix the issue, then the printer has a hardware issue and needs to be replaced by contacting HP phone support.
