My HP Deskjet GT 5810 printer is not printing properly. The print gets crooked and each next line shifts to the right side as shown in the attachment. Please help me to resolve the issue.Print.jpg

@VipinS, welcome to HP Support Community!

 

Align the printer in Windows.

  1. Open or search for the HP folder in your list of installed software programs, click the folder for your printer, and then click the name of your printer.

    HP Printer Assistant opens.

  2. On the HP Printer Assistant window, click Maintain Your Printer.

  3. Click the Device Services tab, and then click Align Cartridges.

    The printer prints an alignment page.

  4. Lift the scanner lid.

  5. Place the alignment page with the print side down on the scanner glass, and then position it according to the engraved guides around the glass.

    Place the alignment page on the scanner glass

  6. Close the scanner lid.

  7. On your computer, click Scan.

    The printer aligns the printheads.

Try printing and see if it helps.

 

Let me know the outcome.

Cheers 🙂
