Hi @trelyn,

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

I understand your HP ENVY 6420e All-in-One Printer might have an issue with its alignment settings. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue:

• Check Printer Settings: Make sure that the printer settings on your computer are configured correctly. Sometimes, printers can be set to print an alignment page after every print job. To check this, go to your printer settings on your computer and look for any options related to alignment or calibration. Make sure they are set to print only when necessary.
• Printer Calibration: Run the printer's calibration or alignment utility. This can usually be found in the printer's settings menu or maintenance menu. Follow the on-screen instructions to calibrate the printer properly.
• Update Printer Drivers: Ensure that your printer drivers are up to date. Sometimes, outdated drivers can cause issues like this. You can usually update your printer drivers through the device manager on your computer or by visiting the HP website and downloading the latest drivers for your printer model.
