Hi! @TREKKER23, Thanks for stopping by HP forums!

I understand your printer prints wrong colors.

Don't worry I'd like to help you out.

Did you make any changes to your printer?

Does the issue persist when you make a copy from your printer?

Please try the steps recommended below.

Use an automated tool to align the cartridges
Open the printer software.
Right-click the Start button () in the lower left corner of the screen and then click Search.
Type HP in the search box.
Click your printer (). The printer software opens.
   NOTE:
You can also open the printer software from your computer desktop: double-click the icon for your printer ()
Double-click Printer Actions, and then double-click Maintenance Tasks. The HP Toolbox opens.
Click the Device Services tab, and then click Align Ink Cartridges. The printer aligns the cartridges and then prints an alignment page.

Refer this article to further troubleshoot print quality issues on your printer.

I'll keep an eye out for your response.  

I hope you have a great day! 🙂
