3.

If the problem remains, consider cleaning your printheads manually (see

Clean the printheads

on page 169

). You could also try reprinting your current print job, in case it now prints satisfactorily.

4.

If the problem remains, try cleaning the printhead drop detector. The printer normally notifies you
when this is necessary, but it may be worth trying even if the printer has not suggested it. See

Clean the printhead drop detector on page 170

.

5.

If the problem still remains, replace any persistently faulty printheads (see

Handling ink cartridges

and printheads on page 112

), or contact HP Support (see

Contact HP Support on page 185

).

If you still have a problem

If you still experience print-quality problems after applying the advice in this chapter, here are some
further things that you can do:

Try using a higher print-quality option. See

Printing on page 45

.

Check the driver you are using to print with. If it is a non-HP driver, consult the driver vendor about
the problem. You could also try using the correct HP driver, if feasible. The latest HP drivers can
be downloaded from

http://www.hp.com/go/z3200ps/drivers/

.

If you are using a non-HP RIP, its settings may be incorrect. See the documentation that came with
the RIP.

Check that your printer's firmware is up to date. See

Update the firmware on page 129

.

Check that you have the right settings in your software application.
