HP OfficeJet Pro 9025 All-in-One Printer

This problem came on suddenly.  When I scan, the scanned image is very blurry, barely readable.  I did all the cleaning, maintenance, uninstalled and installed software, reset the printer, etc. and there is no improvement.  I am able to print and to copy and even to scan to USB.  I am not willing to pay the cost of a new printer to get this answer.

Hi, so it turns out I'm only having the issue when I use the HP Smart desktop app.  I'm running a MacBook Pro with OS 13.1. When I use the System Settings > Printers & Scanners app it's no problem.  Attaching pictures of both scans.Picture1.png

Hi @miker186 

Thank you for confirming.

I see that you are facing connectivity issues with your printer via MAC.

 

Kindly refer to the steps on this link to connect via Airprint and let me know if that fixes the issue.

I only have wireless connections to the printer. The only difference between the two image qualities is that the blurry one happens when I use your HP Smart desktop app and I get a clear image when I scan from the macOS printers & scanners tool in the System Settings....  I'm also seeing the same issue with another iMac running macOS 11, so it is systemic.

 

This is not a connectivity issue but an issue with your HP Smart app.

Hi, yes I forgot to mention that I have already reinstalled the HP smart software and reconnected my printer from both computers and that didn't help.
