ink tank 419
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi ,

 

I have a problem while taking copy in Ink Tank 419 Printer. If we taking a copy in A4 Plain paper, i'm getting a exact output.

 

But while taking in photo paper, Output is bit darket. Light blue comes to dark blue, pale green comes as dark green...

 

i tried 3 HP ink tank 419 printers and I also tried photo paper mode also  but output was same only.

 

Is there any possibilities to get exact output in photo papers...

@VIJAYVELU The Paper type and size in the input tray that does not match the paper settings for the copy job can result in partial copies.

  1. Reload the paper you are coping on, and make sure the paper width guides are pushed in so they are resting next to the edge of the paper stack.

  2. Touch Copy, Copy Document, or Copy Photo on the printer control panel.

  3. Touch Settings or the gear icon  to access and change the following settings.

    NOTE: 

    You might need to scroll down the screen to access all settings.

    • Paper Type: Copy speed can be impacted if photo paper is selected for a plain paper copy job. Select the type of plain or photo paper you are making the copies on.

    • Tray Selection: Select the paper input tray with the paper you are using for your copies.

    • Paper Size: Select the paper size you are making the copies on, or select Automatic to let the printer detect the paper loaded in the tray.

    • Resize or Size: Change the size of the copy. Options can include a list of presets, custom sizes between 25 and 400 percent of the original size, Fit to Page, and an Actual Size setting to make a borderless copy.

  4. Select Save Current Settings or Set as New Defaults to retain the settings for future copy jobs.

  5. Load the original document or photo, and then start a copy job.

Hi ,

Sorry for the deloay response.

 

I tried all the options by changing copy settings and everything. Problem is while taking a copy in photo paper mode, output is bit darker. Light blue comes dark blue, light green comes dark green. if i take copy in default mode, the contents which are in black is erasing in Photo paper.

 

Example: If a take a copy of pan card, the letters in black are erasing.. Even after two days, the contents are erasing...
