2. Alignment prints well in all blue and scan says its successful

3. Cleaned cartridges 4x times don't see improvements

I was just looking up a ship back like you said when it says that my warranty has already expired. i'm not sure whats wrong is it worthwile to get this repaired? i'm still on first ink cartridges it's been rarely used. how much would it cost ballpark estimate to get this taken care of?

Unfortunately, we don't have the details for repair since it varies from region to region.

 

But most probably you will get an upgrade in exchange for this printer instead of getting it repaired

 

Please contact HP Support and they will provide you the best options 😊
