@statim,

 

Thank you for posting your query on HP Community,

 

Are you having issues only while printing or even while making a copy from the printer?

 

Let’s first try and make a “photocopy” to determine whether the issue is with the printer or not. Place a document on the scanner glass and choose “Copy” option. If the printer is making a good copy, then the printer hardware is fine.

 

If the copy comes out fine, then I would suggest you try these steps here: 

 

Let's start off by updating the printer firmware - HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware

Once done, restart the printer. 

 

If you're running Windows then run HP Print and Scan Doctor -

Could you please respond to this post with the details and with the Operating system installed on the PC so that I can provide you with accurate solution which should help you resolve this issue. 

 

Let me know how it goes!
