Solution 1: Load plain white paper
Solution: If you have color or photo paper loaded in the input tray when you align
the printer, the alignment might fail. Load unused plain white letter or A4 paper into
the input tray, and then try the alignment again.
If you are not prompted on the display to rerun the alignment, try the following
procedure.
To align the printer from the HP Photosmart Software
1. Load letter, A4, or legal unused plain white paper into the input tray.
2. In the HP Solution Center, click Settings.
3. In the Print Settings area, click Printer Toolbox.
NOTE: You can also open the Printer Toolbox from the Print Properties
dialog box. In the Print Properties dialog box, click the Features tab, and
then click Printer Services.
The Printer Toolbox appears.
4. Click the Device Services tab.
5. Click Align the Printer.
The product prints a test page, aligns the print head, and calibrates the printer.
Recycle or discard the page.
Cause: An incorrect type of paper was loaded in the input tray.
If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
