Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Are you able to copy in color?
Print a Print Quality Diagnostic report:
-
On the printer control panel, press the Down Arrow
to scroll to Tools, and then press OK.
-
Press the Down Arrow
to scroll to Print Quality Report, and then press OK. The printer prints the test page.
Let me know if you see any color on this report.
Clean the ink cartridges:
-
Load letter or A4, unused, plain white paper into the paper tray.
-
On the printer control panel, press the Down Arrow
to select Tools, and then press OK.
-
Press the Down Arrow
to select Clean Printhead, and then press OK. The printer cleans the printhead, and then prints a printhead test page.
