Deckjet 3755
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My Deskjet 3755 does not print magenta or light magenta on the print quality diagnostics page. The paper type is correct and I've cleaned the cartridges several times. Also, when I print a picture, it has a kind of green tint to it. Any help is appreciated.

As I understand, your printer does not print magenta color,

No worries, as I'll be glad to help you, that said, I'll need a few more details to dissect your concern & provide an accurate solution:

When was the last time it worked fine?

Were there any hardware/software changes made?

Have you tried changing the ink cartridges? 

How is the photocopy quality? 

 

Let's try these steps to resolve the issue. Click the link: https://hp.care/2GBgAU8

Step 1: Use genuine HP ink cartridges

Step 3: Make sure you are using the appropriate paper for your print job

Step 5: Check the estimated ink levels​​​​​​​

Step 6: Replace any low or empty ink cartridges

Step 7: Align the ink cartridges

Step 8: Print a Print Quality Diagnostic page

Step 10: Clean the ink cartridges

Step 12: Align the printer

Step 13: Manually clean the area around the ink nozzles

Step 14: Replace the problem ink cartridge

 

Let me know how this goes,

For I shall follow-up on this case to ensure the concern has been addressed,

And your device is up and running again,

I hasn't worked fine since I got it. I got it for Christmas last year. I just downloaded all the drivers and software updates the day I posted this. The ink cartridges are the ones that came with it. And I haven't photocopied anything with it yet.
