Print too dark

Can someone help me with this problem

Welcome to the Forums of HP Bazza46,

By your post, I see that the photos are too dark print.
I can help you with this problem.

I have provided a document to solve Print quality problems see if that will help solve the problem.

Make sure you select the type of paper in the printer driver and is not a default unspecified paper.

Most of the settings should be set the application you are printing from.

You use Genuine HP Toner?

What kind of paper do you use?

What are the results when you print the page of diagnostic quality and print?

If you need help, let me know.

Good day!
Thank you.

  • hp deskjet 1510 printing too dark

    Hello

    As says the subject, my HP Deskjet 1510 printer is printing too dark. Does anyone know how to change this?

    Thank you

    Thanks for the reply.

    You try to print a photo, if so what program? If you print word documents, try printing in draft mode.

    I would like you open the printer from the desktop icon or go to Start> all programs> HP> Deskjet 1510> 1510 Deskjet series. The Printer Wizard, click the estimated ink levels> Services> print quality diagnostic report, not this dark printing page as well?

  • LaserJet 1300: LaserJet prints too dark gray

    I suspect that this can happen several HP Laser Jet printers.

    Even when I print a C = 0, M = 0, Y = 0, K = 10 Gray (a setting that makes gray barely distinguishable on screen) to the black wire, black is very difficult to read in print. Gray is simply too dark.

    I've looked everywhere and complaints most people about gray printing have to with the gray print thread too light. This isn't my problem.

    I have updated drivers with no luck.

    I am hoping there is a kind of software that will allow me to recalibrate the gray my HP Print.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    There is no utility calibration for this printer. I am certified on them when they were new. Grey s printing too dark and you use the OEM toner cartridges then I would replace the engine Board. If you use replacement cartridges they print darker than the new HP cartridges and I just turn to OEM.

  • Pictures Printing too dark

    HP Officejet 6500 a Plus All in One.  Windows 7, 64 bit.  Print all pictures too dark.  I have checked the cartridges, cleaned print head, set preferences - set everything I can think of.  Provides excellent print quality but all of a sudden this change.  Can not think of any change I made to the computer itself.  Any thoughts?  And thank you very much.  Small drives me crazy!

    Thanks for help. I did NOTthink of printing as a PROJECT; may have worked. But only one solution temporary vs a fix, right? I finally gave up and changed the black ink cartridge, even though it was almost new. With the new cartridge, returned to perfect photo printing. Now I think I bought a faulty cartridge. Once again, thaks for taking the time!

  • device of too dark photo booth

    Photo booth is too dark.

    Add a lot more light and try again.  If your images are still too dark in a very bright room, there is something wrong with your Mac.  Here are the things that users can do to solve a problem of camera:

    (1) If your Mac restart does not solve the problem,

    (2) use http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 from Apple.

    (BTW - troubleshooting section called an "iSight" camera.  However, after that article was published, Apple has changed the name of the built-in camera on the recent "iSight" Macs "FaceTime", then "FaceTime HD."  Whatever the name of your built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)

    Be sure to test several Apple app (photo booth, FaceTime, iMovie, QuickTime Player, etc.) in more than one user account.  Do NOT use the 'Guest' for this test account.  If you don't have more than one user account for testing, create one now.  If you need help, how is explained in http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201754.

    A 'Standard' user account is all you need for the tests.

    (3) If your camera will work correctly even with Apple applications, use OS X Recovery to completely reinstall your Mac OS since system recovery stored on your startup disk.  Don't bother test Skype or other 3rd party apps until you have your camera works with applications Apple.

    (4) If none of the suggestions above resolve your issue, contact Apple or one of the Apple-Authorized Service Provider to have your Mac professionally repaired. Don't forget to back up your Mac and Deauthorize iTunes before the call for tenders for the service.

  • LaserJet Pro M452dn color: Color LaserJet Pro M452 prints too dark

    All prints much too dark. Even in Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator. I downloaded the user guide, but not able to find a way to adjust the intensity of output. Setting the output seems to be available for Windows only. Is - everyone there knows the secret formula for Mac users? Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I usually check the option of directly on setting intensity her pinter.

    Go to system set up, select the print intensity or density and 3 is the default setting, it goes on a scale of 1 to 5, five being really dark, replace it with a 1 or 2 and try out it.

    Canon Pixma iP4950 printer - prints much too dark. Different profiles tried both through Windows and Photoshop. The difference is well beyond the profiles.

  • LR 2: workflow colorproofed but prints too dark. Help, please.

    Hello

    I'm new here. I have read all the other threads on this problem and tried all the proposals. But I can't solve the problem.

    In detail:

    IMac

    Progs: CS 2, CS 4, LT 2

    Printer: HP Photosmart B 9180

    Display: iMac + Eizo CG21

    ColorProof by eye - one display and colorvision spectrophotometer for printers.

    I even put the brightness and Gamma of the monitor for each type of paper measuring the brightness/white paper.

    In CS 2 all works very well. 100% matching printmakers.

    In LR 2: too dark images. Printer has the default value. Color-correct profile is selected. Printer is set up for color management software...

    If I send the same image of LR2 to PS2 to modify, print in PS2 without changes, everthing is ok.

    CS 4: Too dark prints as in LR2

    Help, please! I love LT2 to manage the huge amount of images and you want to use for printing photobooks (easier to print if you want to print pictures 20 or more...)

    Anyone have more tips?

    Thanks in advance

    I have the same setup as you, perhaps with the exception of the osX version (10.5.7).

    The impressions of my B9180 are thin and assorted in color managed LR and printer managed.

    Wheter that the printer is set up by default or not never made no difference.

    My printer driver version is 2.3.3

    However, I have the same problem with another printer and LR.

    The fact that people with the same configuration and drivers get different results only confirm my idea that there is a bug / flag in LR who gets together and then all your prints for a certain printer is screwed up.

    I am rather disappointed that Adobe has not corrected this and seems even to the same bug in CS4.

    I won't pay for LR or CS4 until I have confirmation that this bug is gone (if I were to upgrade to CS4 and get the same problem, I would not be able to print over all)

  • PIXMA MX922 print too dark

    Hello, people. I have problems with my printable cards. I design inserts in Paintshop Pro. I use a Canon MX922. I print to Xerox 3R11458 elite digital color Gloss cover Stock, 80 lb, white. Can someone tell me why my print much darker colors they look on my PC?

    Hi MamaWolf,

    There are a lot of factors that go into the correspondence of printing to your printer with the image on your monitor.

    Factors such as the calibration of the monitor and using profile correct ICC for the paper you're using contribute.

    When using third-party documents, the manuafacturer of paper should be contacted to get their recommended for their paper printer settings.

  • large format HP 7110 prints come out too dark when using the choice of photo paper.

    My officejet 7000 would be to print borderless photos size beautiful poster even using a brand off paper. (Staples brand)

    But my new 7110 printer prints much too dark.  I choose the option "other photo paper.

    Hi @Ratboy2k Sunshyn here for help.

    I see that you're having trouble with your 7110 newly purchased. If your photos appear darker when you used the 7000 all programs? Have you tried to change the settings for print quality? You may need to change the quality at the standard. With the help of high quality may cause more ink on the page, your impressions would therefore appear darker.

    It could also be the selection of paper. Even if you are off mark paper, you don't have to choose "other photo paper. What are the options available in the selection of paper and what kind of paper do you use? I understand it of paper Staples, but must have a particular type as advanced, or premium and so on.

    I would like to do everything I can to help. Please post back with the requested details and I'll gladly come back and work with you to find a solution. Thank you.

  • Re: Satellite L550 - imported into PowerPoint Photos are too dark

    Having problems inserting JPG photos of 'Photos' Power point - they become much too dark after the transfer. Gamma-ing the JPG or upping lightness does not work. I imported the same impages using other PC and there is no problem with images in PowerPoint. The photos are A1 and taken on SLR cameras the top of the page.

    Someone had similar probs? I am using Windows 7 on my Satellite L550

    Hello

    Sometimes I have the PowerPoint user, but I've never had such a problem that pictures will get more dark after import in PowerPoint.

    In your case, I recommend you to install the latest ServicePack for your Office suite. You can get it on the Microsoft Web site. Moreover, download also all patches for the version of PowerPoint you have.

    If it doesn t work I would try reinstalling PowerPoint.

    Finally and most importantly, I think you should ask Microsoft directly on this issue. I think that it s not Toshiba associated

  • My pictures are too dark when printing on an epson printer. they were ok on my last printer

    I just bought a new epson printer xp960. All my images printed from photoshop CS6 are too dark. If the print outside photoshop, they're ok. They printed accurately on my old Kodak printer. Epson sent me to Adobe

    Could you please uninstall the printer drivers once and then install the latest drivers for the printer.

  • Too dark prints

    In CS5 I get printed pictures coming out too dark and with altered color. Regardless of evidence or settings paper settings that I use, they are always the same. I does not always seem to have this problem, but the impression that I am trying to print today is like it no matter what I do. What I am doing wrong?

    Well, it get close enough to the change of ink so he could be a suspect? I guess a lot of ink is possible. A rather tedious next step may be reinstall drivers printing factory.  You can also try a preference reset Photoshop: Mac - press and hold down Cmd + Opt + shift and run Photoshop. A box will appear, asking you if you want to continue with the reset, select 'yes '. Try to hold the space bar when you click on the Photoshop print button too.
