Troubleshooting

NOTE: HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP ink. Printer service or repairs required as a result of printer failure or damage attributable to the use of non-HP ink will not be covered under warranty.

The text edges are jagged

Cause: The font is a custom size.

Solution: Some software applications offer custom fonts that have jagged edges when enlarged or printed. Also, if you want to print bitmapped text, it might have jagged edges when enlarged or printed.

Use TrueType or OpenType fonts to ensure that the HP All-in-One is able to print smooth fonts. When selecting a font, look for the TrueType or OpenType icon.

The printout has a horizontal band of distortion near the bottom of the page

Cause: Your photo image has light blue, gray, or brown hues that print near the bottom of the page.

Solution: Load high-quality paper in the input tray and print the image with a high print quality setting, such as Best, Maximum dpi, or High Resolution. Always make sure the paper you are printing on is flat. For best results when printing images, use HP Premium Plus Photo Paper.

If the problem persists, use the software you installed with the HP All-in-One or another software application to rotate your image 180 degrees so that the light blue, gray, or brown hues in your image do not print at the bottom of the page.

Colors run into each other on the printout

Cause: The print or copy quality setting is set too high for the type of paper loaded in the HP All-in-One.

Solution: Check the quality setting. Use a lower quality setting to decrease the amount of ink used for printing or copying.

For more information, see:

•“Change the print speed or quality” on page 48

•“Change copy speed or quality” on page 88

Cause: The paper type is not suitable for the HP All-in-One.

Solution: Use HP Premium Papers or any other paper type that is appropriate for the HP All-in-One.

Cause: You are printing on the wrong side of the paper.
