DeskJet Ink Advantage 4535 connection problem

[fillivanilli]

While my printer still prints all the colors without any problems, it stopped printing the black color. Both the black and the color cartridge are installed properly. If I choose the black & white printing or the color of the text is black, the letters are cut-off at the top and bottom. If the color of this same text is let's say red, the letters are printed wholly. I assume it's some kind of a connection problem between my PC and the printer because if I try printing from any other computer, the black text gets printed ok. I tried reinstalling all the software and drivers, but nothing helps. Are there any suggestions as to what else I could try?

Thanks

Hi @fillivanilli

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you with the printing issue. 

Let's try these steps -

Download and install HP Print and Scan Doctor, it is a Windows tool to fix printer issues. 

If the issue still persists, try re-installing the printer driver -

1. In the search box, type and open "Uninstall a Program".

2. Look for HP Printer software.

3. Right-click to uninstall.

4. In the search box, type and open “Devices and printers”.

5. In the Devices and Printers, look for your HP printer. If you see it listed right-click on it and choose “Delete” or “Remove Device”.

6. Open the run command with the "Windows key + R" key combo. 

7. Type printui.exe /s and click Ok. (Note: there is a space in between “printui.exe” and “/s”).

8. Click on the "Drivers" tab.

9. Look for HP Printer driver. If you see it Click on it and click “Remove” at the bottom.

10. Select Ok.

11. Select Apply and Ok on the Print Server Properties windows.

12. Close Devices and Printers Once the software and drivers are removed.

13. Restart the computer.

Try adding the printer using the IP address - 

1. Select “Start” and type “printers” in the search box.

2. Choose “Printers & scanners“.

3. Select “Add a printer or scanner“.

4. Wait for the “The printer that I want isn’t listed” option to appear, then select it.

5. Select “Add a printer using a TCP/IP address or hostname” , then select “Next“.

6. Select “TCP/IP Device” in the “Device type” list.

7. Type the hostname or the IP address of the printer. Select “Next“. To find the IP address of the printer, touch the Wi-Fi icon on the printer's control panel. 

8. Windows should find the printer if the printer is on and configured correctly. You may have to specify more information. If prompted, Select the type of network adapter installed in the printer in the “Device Type” drop-down list. You can also click “Custom” to specify custom settings for the network printer. Select “Next“. 

Also, try updating the printer's firmware - HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware
