My HP ENVY 5660 wireless all in one printer is printing a second image and text over the top of the text I asked it to print. The image that appears as an overlay is one that was saved in my documents folder from months earlier. I've looked extensively in the help and Printer Assistant sites with no luck. I also turned the power off and on on the printer and downloaded updates software for this specific printer. Thank you to someone out there who's understands this problem.
