HP Envy 5020 Print Quality

[Nobby11]

I am very new to this and my "tech savvy" is not brilliant.

Question: I have put together a Collage of pictures. I printed it and the quality was very dark. However, I did priny on "normal" A4 paper and not photographic paper.  If I print on photographic paper, will the quality be better, or are there "tweeks" that will help me?

Kind regards

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

The quality will be better on the photo paper.

Tips for printing quality photos:

• Use HP photo paper: HP photo papers are optimized for use with inkjet printers and provide quality prints for craft projects or framing.

• Take high resolution photos: Higher resolution photographs result in clearer, more vibrant prints.

• Edit photos before printing: Before printing, use photo editing tools to improve colors, brightness, contrast, and any other appearance settings.

• Check the computer display: If your computer monitor displays colors inaccurately, printed photo quality might be unsatisfactory. Try changing to the monitor's default color settings or use a calibration tool to confirm the color accuracy.

• Use Best or Max DPI quality in print settings: Higher print quality settings provide best results.
