HP Photosmart C7200 Series - Manual (Page 201)

Solution: If the paper you are using is too fibrous, the ink applied by the HP All-in-
One might not fully cover the surface of the paper. Use HP Premium Papers or any
other paper type that is appropriate for the HP All-in-One.
Cause: The print head needs to be cleaned.
Solution: Clean the print head, and then print a self-test report. Check the color
blocks in the report for any problems. If the color blocks show print quality problems,
perform a printer alignment.
If the problem persists after cleaning and aligning, contact HP support for help. Go
to:
www.hp.com/support
If prompted, choose your country/region, and then click Contact HP for information
on calling for technical support.
