If all the test patterns from the Troubleshooting procedure are correct and you still experience print quality problems, here are some of the more likely causes to check:

„The print mode used in the Printer is not right for the image that is being printed (this is defined by the printer’s front-panel menu selections).

„Non-HP driver.

„The RIP (if it is being used).

„The software application the client is using.
