Solution 2: Check the ink levels

Solution: Check the estimated ink levels in the ink cartridges.

NOTE: Ink level alerts and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a low-ink alerts, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace the ink cartridges until print quality becomes unacceptable.

For more information, see:

Check the estimated ink levels

Cause: The ink cartridges might have insufficient ink.

If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.

Solution 3: Check the print settings

Solution: Check the print settings.

Check the paper type setting to make sure it matches the type of paper loaded in the input tray.

Check the print quality setting and make sure it is not set too low.

Print the image with a high print quality setting, such as Best or Maximum dpi.

Cause: The paper type or print quality settings were set incorrectly. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.

Solution 4: Check the paper type

Solution: HP recommends that you use HP papers or any other paper type that is appropriate for the product.

Always make sure the paper you are printing on is flat. For best results when printing images, use HP Advanced Photo Paper.

Store specialty media in its original packaging inside a resealable plastic bag on a flat surface in a cool, dry place. When you are ready to print, remove only the paper you plan to use immediately. When you have finished printing, return any unused photo paper to the plastic bag. This will prevent the photo paper from curling.

For more information, see:

Select print media

Cause: The wrong kind of paper was loaded in the input tray.

If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.

Solution 5: Clean the printhead

Solution: If the previous solutions did not resolve the issue, try cleaning the printhead.
