F4400 erratic printing

F4400 with XP. every third line of the text fell. It happens with word, wordpad and the detailed test form. (impressions after having held power + X keys) in addition, certain text colors do not print, but bars on the detailed test printed in color sheets. What cartridges or something else? Thank you

Black being 'bad quality' does not indicate much of the detail.  Can you analyze and view the test page?  I think it's a question that can be resolved by the contacts of the cartridge cleaning or replacement of the cartridge, but it is difficult to diagnose without more of an idea of what looks like the focus of the test.   The black print head swath is up to three lines of 10pt printed text.  If some of the electrical connections are intermittent or not connecting the lower part of the head print not print, causing the missing lines, you see.  To check this test printing in "best" mode, the missing lines must then print.

BTW, I don't see indicate you that you have tried to clean the contacts of the cartridge as shown here (different cartridges, same principle).  If you haven't tried that yet there is a likely difficulty.

  • HP printer F4400 series: printing off internet

    My printer does not print anything off the internet. He wants to save first, then I must go and print it later.

    I have Windows 10 last year, but I don't know if this is a problem or not.

    I need someone to help me solve this problem. I'm tired of saving things before printing. It should be easy.

    I couldn't find anything in the settings to correct this problem.

    Thank you

    Hi @KathyJB.

    Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support. I understand that you are prompted to save when you try to print. I would like to help.

    When you are on the Internet, what browser are you using?

    If you use Chrome, press Ctrl + P.

    The print dialog box should open on the left side of your screen.

    You should see the options to Save and Cancel.

    Below this, you should see a section of Destination . This can be set to Save in PDF format.

    If this is the case, click on the button of change below save it in PDF format.

    It opens a window.

    Select your printer.

    The registration option at the top should now say Print.

    If you use a different Web browser, I would like to know which.

    If you have any questions, or if this does not resolve the problem, let me know.
  • How can I configure my printer HP Deskjet f4400 to print wirelessly with my Mac osx?

    I am able to print entirely specific wireless with this printer or do I connect to the computer via the usb cord or router when I want to print?

    Thanks Jabzi!

  • Erratic printer

    I have a Photosmart C309a printer.  My computer is a HP pavilion with Windows 7 installed.  The printer connection is through a USB cable.  The printer has always been irregular, I never know whan I select an action, if it will perfom this action or someother.

    For example, at some point the printer would not print envelopes.  He would select the papter photo tray and print on it if any paper was present.  If I tried to print a document that contains a pager number it would print all pages, but in a confused page order.  If printing on both sides, it would be difficult, if not impossible to put the pages in good condition.  After many phone calls to HP, I was sent a new driver and a driver for a 990 prnter.  After using this for awhile just erased, that restarted the trouble with envelopes.  Nothing has been done, and after several months, the printer started printing envelopes as it should and there is no more problems.  It's the same thing with the printing of pages in the proper order.

    In the past it always printed excellent photos.

    Now the printer does not print photos. He did not print photos properly when I used the driver 309, so I tried the 990 pilot and got a great picture.   A few days ago I tried to print a photo using the 990 driver and the results were cracckong as it had been with the pilot 309.  So, I tried the 309 a pilot and received the same terrible print.  The colors are all screwed up.

    I just ran the diagnostic test on the printer and all the results are perfect.  All the boxes of colors, lines and print are perfect.  The image of the vase in the upper right corner could not be improved.  When I ran the exemplary action, the results were the same.  The copied image is a bit dulll, but the colors are perfect.  I was using Windows Live Photo Gallery program.

    I have run the verification of updates and results, said that everything is up to date.

    What needs to be done to make this printer print pictures again?

    This is a request for additional assistance from HP, Apple and AT & T Community Forums

    more AT & T Wireless Access Point VEN501 device

    Wireless Router Range Extender: Linksys RE6500

    Multipoint unresolved printing problem:

    HP OfficeJet Pro 8610 had printed out successfully all the three above mentioned computers since the purchase of the 04/04/2015. End of August 2016 he started intermittently refusing to print wireless, sometimes do not connect wireless or holder from job to job.

    09/06/16 I posted the question on the Forum of community HP between 07/09/16 and 08/09/16 had dialogue on possible solutions. I followed the Commission received and interpreted it following recommended tasks - all without result:

    (1) sequential power off and cord power to the router Range Extender, OfficeJet 8610 Pro and iMac and removal after 60 seconds of powering the devices in the same order. Result: would not print.

    (2) off wireless to iMac. IMac connected to a printer via an Ethernet cable. Printer would not print.

    (3) tried to scan the printer for iMac's wireless: would not scan.

    (4) tried Scan via an Ethernet cable from the printer to iMac: Scan worked.

    (5) connecting iMac via an Ethernet cable to the router and printing system reset iMac to remove the printer and then added printer as directed by its name: HP OfficeJet Pro 8610 [455491]. The results have been mixed:

    (a) wireless to iMac to the router and Ethernet cable router for printer: test page printed.

    (b) the iMac to the router and wireless router for printer: test page will not print.

    08/09/16, having nothing specified by HP Community Forum, I contacted AT & T, the provider of my router and all my services (wireless, broadband, Internet, fixed phone) for the Support service.

    AT & T: recommended

    (1) make a new Setup wireless printing HP itself using my secure wireless network name and password, and then perform a reboot of the router. Between the two actions (new set-up and router reboot), the printer starts and print a previously submitted test page. To confirm that the printer was actually working, I turned off the printer, waited, he turned back and tried to print Test page: the page not print.

    (2) AT & T then told me to do a new manual of the printer setting. Just as I got Set Up on the screen of the printer, the printer prints the Test Page.

    AT & T told me that the printer should work fine now.

    Once I have shut down my system and restarted the 09/09/16, I found that I could not print anyway:

    Wireless to the router for printer

    Wireless to the router and Ethernet cable for printer

    Ethernet cable to the router and wireless to a printer

    Ethernet cable for printer

    Another experiment on 11/09/16 led to erratic printing depends on the original machine:

    1 iMac for HP printer: wireless printer for iMac gives not the Page of Test sent for printing, but a series of blank pages, followed by several pages of code and followed by more white pages. Code pages are all the same and then talking about the Cambria police (body).

    a. the first pages all State: %! PS-Adobe-3, 0% APL_DCS_Encodiong: UFT8% APLProducer: (Version 10.11.6 (Build 15 1)

    b. human beings second page with: 14 start/FontName dict / TJOLUV+ def Cambria

    Page 2 on three subsequent print reading attempts the same as above, except for a different set of letters before "+ Cambria". A UAXKPA, a JJCFBS, and the third is WOKHHG.

    2. yet, when I tried to print the Test Page of the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro wireless, printing is successful (i.e., the test page prints and do not print pages blank and coded.

    I'm sorely need a remedy to this overall situation.

  • F4400 prints only on the left side of the page.

    Hi, I have an impression of recent problem out of the web pages with my HP F4400 all-in-one printer/scanner.

    It will only print the left side of the selected page to a web site.

    However, it will be to print documents from my computer with no problems at all, the problem with web pages, that is my bank statements, for example, it cuts off the right side of the text.

    I use the Windows 7-64 bit operating system.

    I don't remember having this problem before today, and I can't imagine a way to clear it up.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello inkie

    I would say that it is most likely a problem with FireFox. You can back up your bookmarks and reinstall the browser. If the problem persists, there may be a setting in FireFox that should be changed since the update, and you may want to communicate with Mozilla. I can help you to reinstall the printer driver, as it could be related, however, I think that this isn't probably also another browser running.

  • HP F4400 does everything but print a document.

    I have Windows 7 and have tried to install a HP F4400 printer for her. The computer sees it, it will scan on it, it will copy (of course) and it allows to print the alignment page. But it will not print anything else (test page or other). I see the print job pop in the what is in print page, but then it immediately disappears and does not go to the printer.

  • HP printer F4400 - cannot scan without Error Message

    Greetings ~

    I have a new iMac and a new HP all-in - one Printer F4400... today, it was the first time I tried to scan and save a document without result. It was printing just perfect, but I can't scan. In doing so, I get the message "unknown error." Since I'm a novice with software problems, I don't know where to go from here.

    This problem occurred trying to analyse my first paper. Initially, the computer recognizes the new printer, so no software has been installed. But after encountering this problem, I returned and downloaded the software thinking it would correct the problem? Not sure if there is a problem with the settings or what?

    Help, please... Thank you

    If you are using Snow Leopard or Lion and you have the HP software before Snow Leopard (either from a CD not marked as compatible with 10.6 or you recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and had the software HP on your Mac before you upgrade - even if you made a standard from the old software uninstaller or installed new software on top of it) , you must uninstall the software by using the "scrubber":

    Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard / click Uninstall HP
    Click on continue
    Highlight your device in the left pane
    Hold down the Ctrl and Opt Cmd and click on uninstall< scrubber="">
    There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall all hp software. (At this point, if you continue, all HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    Click on continue and let it finish

    Restart your Mac

    Now reset the printing system:

    -Sys Prefs, Print & Fax
    -Right (control) click inside the box that lists your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - This will remove ALL your printers!
    -Select the sign + to add again. Search for the printer, select it, and wait until the button 'Add' becomes available. Until it clicks.

  • HP F4400, prints the last print issue when put to sleep

    Just had a weird problem start.   My wife was going to print something and haven't noticed any paper in the printer, so it wouldn't print.  When the paper loaded and only handed over running it printed fine.  But now, whenever I put my iMac to sleep, in a minute or two, it will print another copy of the final printed piece.  It happens every time he is put to sleep.   Strange... that is clear... any idea?

    Thank you

    Looks that work would fit in the heart of the printing system called CUPS then try a reset of the print system. Open Printers and scanners, mouse over the list of printers and right-click (or hold down the Ctrl key, and then if the right click disabled). A context menu will appear. Select Reset and authenticate when prompted. Note that this deletes all printers printers & Scanners, but not pilots supported, so you will just need to add printers again.

  • How can I remove the printhead on serial printer F4400 clean and replace the print head?

  • Printer print erratic

    I have a HP C6380 printer all in one that is having problems. Printing became low on a black background so I got a new black photo cartridge. It would print, but it seemed to run out of black as the photos looked slightly swathes. The "current offer ink levels' showed all full. I replaced the black picture with another new cartridge and once again he would be feeling very well once and purplish all the next.  Today I tried to print a delivery eBay and everything would print was "Paypal delivery" at the top and nothing else. I tried a couple of times with the same results but it printed very well yesterday. I printed the shipping label, and it was faded like ink was running out. I can't locate my printer manual, the only one of my old printer - photosmart 7350. I just keep the quick guide to my printer, but of course not in case of a problem with printing in it. I tried unplugging the printer and tried again but the omes photo outside as the special effects. I see red, green, blue, but it still looks like black is missing. You print heads clean or what? Any suggestions?

    I did everything above, but it did not help. Then I read another post suggested that I check the duct of the ink, I have no idea existed. And low and this is the part of the orange band had not peeled off completely so I removed it and voila! He started printing very well. How to clean the print heads has been good information too. I run a Mac that is a little different, but I thought about it. Now I know how. Great help here! Thank you
