HP ENVY Photo 6220
Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan

Hello

My HP ENVY Photo 6220 is printing in black, and shades of red. No blue, green etc. It previously worked fine, I am not sure what has triggered the change. 

I have taken the cartridges out and put them back in again, I have unplugged the printer, waited for 5 minutes, and plugged it back in again. 

The printer is new, these are genuine cartridges and only the second set I have used.

Thank you

Rachel
