Deskjet Ink Advantage 4675
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi

My HP inkjet 4675 color scanning does not scan true colours. I seem to think that it was never really great, but now it seems to be a lot worse.

I have run the HP Print and Scan Doctor 5.3 but it didn't help.

Please send me the 'magic wand' for an instant fix 🙂

Many thanks

Brian

@SandyTechy20 - You will see from my original post that my issue is with the colour calibration / detection of the scanner / printer. The solution suggested has more to do with poor quality of scan, not poor colour. Is there anywhere that the printers 'colour detection' or 'colour calibration' can be set? I could not find that in the HP Printer Assist, did I not look well enough?

Actually, the HP Printer Assist is really designed to get your printer connected, I do not see anything that says you can calibrate the colour scanning capability.
