Correcting output quality problems

This section of the manual helps you define print quality problems
and what to do to correct them. Often output quality problems can be
handled quite easily by making sure that your printer is properly
maintained, using media that meets HP specifications, or running a
cleaning page.

Use the examples in the image defect table starting on this page to
determine which output quality problem you are experiencing, then
see the corresponding reference pages to troubleshoot. These
examples consist of the most common methods to remedy print
quality problems. If you still have problems after trying the suggested
remedies, contact HP Customer Care Service and Support (see
“Service and support” on page 157).

Note

The examples below depict letter-size paper that has passed through
the printer short-edge first.
