Hi people. Just bought a HP 150a Color Laser Jet. It's new, supply levels are all 100% but it's basically not printing yellow. I'll attach a photo how bleak the yellow print is and of the toner, that stays with a dark, likely toner-less spot on it's roller.

 Hi @GuilhermeA,

 

 I'd like to help!

 

To better assist you - 

 

1) Does the copy print out the same way? 

2) What's the application you are trying to print from? Have you tried printing from a different application or device? 

 

You may also refer to this document with steps to fix the " Print Quality Issues" issue applicable for your printer -  Print Quality Issues

 

 Also, try updating the printer's firmware - HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware 

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

I was trying to print from the Mac using the Samsung driver for Samsung CLP-620 which has been mentioned in other forum pages. Then I tried printing from Windows 10 (via VirtualBox) and it print all colors, yellow included, well. Then I came back to the Mac and, using drivers for the Samsung CLP-680 it started printing yellow fine as well...

 

The message for HP regarding the Color Laser 150a is: PLEASE, URGENTLY, MAKE A MAC DRIVER for HP 150A. Makes no sense to buy a brand new printer in 2021 that is not compatible with OS.
