Printing issues

[Arod96]

I’m having problems with printing. The black comes out streaky after making 2 or 3 copies in a row. But when I set it to clean the printheads and it prints the test page everything looks fine. I do use remanufactured ink but haven’t had any problems in the past. Should I clean the printheads manually? If so how? Or what should I do? I do make multiple copies at once and I need to make a large amount by tommorrow... what do I do?

Welcome to HP support community.

Clean the printhead

1. On the printer control panel, swipe down to open the Dashboard, and then touch the Setup icon .

2. Swipe up on the display, and then touch Printer Maintenance.

3. Touch Clean Printhead, and then touch Continue.

   A test page prints.

   

4. Examine the test page.

   • If the print quality is unacceptable, touch Clean Again to continue the next level of cleaning. Repeat these steps for the third cleaning stage, if necessary.

     NOTE: 

     If the printhead is badly clogged, it might require another cleaning cycle. If so, wait 30 minutes before you perform all three levels of cleaning again.

   • If the print quality is acceptable, touch Done.
