Welcome to HP support community.
Clean the rollers inside the ink cartridge access area.
-
Turn off the printer, and then disconnect the power cord.
WARNING:
To avoid risk of injuries or electric shock, disconnect the power cord before reaching inside the printer.
-
Open the ink cartridge access door.
-
Lightly dampen a lint-free cloth with distilled water, and then squeeze any excess liquid from the cloth.
-
Press the cloth against the rollers inside the printer, and then rotate the rollers upwards with your fingers. Apply a moderate amount of pressure to remove any dust or dirt buildup.
-
Allow the rollers to dry completely (approximately 10 minutes).
-
Close the ink cartridge access door.
-
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer, and then turn on the printer.
