The problem persists. But it is better as it prints automatically only two to three pages then stop. What should I do to solve the problem totally?

I already downloaded the Hp Print and Scan Doc. It doesn't detect any problem of the printer. I printed the test page also. But the printer still will suddenly print itself, with only the black marks at the side.
