HP OfficeJet 5255 All-in-One Printer
Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit)

My 5255 has what I think is an alignment issue. I've replaced the (black) ink, performed automatic and manual cleaning several times, and run the alignment program several times. The alignment page looks like this. There are 2 1/2" at the top of the page and the bottom is cut off and missing lines.
