OfficeJet j145 all-in-One black print quality deteriorates
When printing of plain black text (ie. text in a Word document) deteriorates print quality. Black text seems to be more than a dark shade of grey/purple. If the printer does not receive heavy use I have never had to change the printheads. I ran a few tests provided in the User Guide and have never got the message "Change print heads" appear on the printer as indicated in the User Guide if I needed a replacement.
Is this sounds like I'm needing a new printhead black anyway?
Thank you-
Thanks for the post of Bob. I ran the test report and the ink levels seems to be ok; expired ink cartridges are June 2010 so we are ok. The printhead of the report information section displays status = OK for the printhead (cyan, magenta, yellow and black), however the rectangular box above the black status area washed out looks like at best. The print heads have been installed 30/04/2003. I'll replace the print head back and see if things improve.
Thank you once more for the information; I really appreciate it.

Printer, HP officejet 7310 all-in-one had not been used in 3 weeks. Cartridge black ink but nevermind. New in color cartridge. Print test works very well. Do you have the drilling cleaning cartridge. Downloaded diagnostic printing and scanning tool. He ran. Yes, it prints, but only a couple of lines are visible, but barely, ghostly, and then nada. The color cartridge is not used. This on a PC with windows XP. So far, the printer worked great. The same results if using Notepad or an Internet site. Suggestions anyone?
The obvious suggestion is to replace the black cartridge. If you need print now, you can use reserve mode or select photo paper (which will use only the color cartridge).
The printer will automatically not using the color cartridge when the black cartridge is out of ink. If you want to use the color cartridge to print in black, you can remove the black cartridge. The printer will then give an error on the screen but is printed in reserve mode using only the color cartridge. Copies cannot be predicted with the printer by way of reservation, you will need to replace the black cartridge.

OfficeJet 6500 all-in-one - black line down page
Our newly purchased Officejet 6500 all-in-One is the production pages with thin black lines down the page about 2/3 of the way through the page (right side of page). Is there a solution to this problem?
This was only happening with ADF. After several cleanings with no changes, I found this forum. After reading the plug on the glass, I went back and really clean the glass. This has allowed the problem. Thanks for the forum.

OfficeJet 6500 all-in-one 709n: printing address labels
I am trying to print Avery 5160 using Ms Excel and merge and mailing address labels in MS Word. Data print incorrectly on the labels. Tops are too low and one on the bottom are too high. Help, please
Hello! Welcome to the @Quickie forums
I would recommend to change the quality of 'Best' when you try to print your labels. Best mode will pull the slower paper and sometimes will help properly align the labels.
Changing the settings to print in Windows 7
If this does not help, thanks for posting this concern in the Avery Help Center for better exposure on the issue with printing on Avery labels.
Happy Monday

OfficeJet J5740 all-in-one is printing words backwards
OK, first of all that I never heard talk of a printer, print the words back, so I really didn't have a clue where to start. My daughter was printing 2 pages of his school report and the two pages the words were back, ideas?
OK it's corrected, it was caused by windows xp service pack 3, somehow active the "mirror image" setting in printing preferences, so I just turned it off and now it works.

Black ink works very well for text and text with little color, but when you print photos (on HP Advanced paper which is recommended), printed black areas aqua green, or deep. Other colors are fine. How can I fix it?
The probable cause is a cartrdige Photo print does not correctly. In the paper here troubleshooting steps can help solve black photo print does not correctly on your printer Photosmart 7520. The Photo cartridge is on the far left of the printer.

HO Officejet 6310 all-in-one: 6310 print only 1/2 of the first photo on 2 5x7s
I use HP photosmart Essential 3.5 on Win 7 pro 64 - bit Home to print photos, I am printing 2 5 x 7 photos by 8.5 x 11 pages, the printer load photo paper and sometimes sends an error "on paper", I hit ok and it prints but it prints 1/2 or less of the first photo and any 2nd photo the quality is great, just want to print the entire photos and no ink on half of the photos, any help would be great thanks.

Thom,
Sometimes, the results depend on the program you're using to print.
Test the printing of two photos on 'plain paper '.
Make sure that the media type is correctly selected (Photo paper)
Try / consider:
Try to print pictures using Windows Photo Viewer > as well as other settings, check that you have enabled "Copies of each image.
Reference and examples:
Section:
- Photo printing with Windows for Windows Photo Viewer
Paragraph > print Photo on the main plate

HP OfficeJet Pro all-in-One 8610 print intermittently
11/09/2016
This is a request for additional assistance from HP, Apple and AT & T Community Forums
Machines and affected software:
Printer HP OfficeJet Pro 8610 e - All - In - One.

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.
- What is originally intermittently, the HP printer?
- What is originally a wireless printing and Ethernet to vary?
- What is causing the iMac to print Virgin and code pages when the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro both print pages "regular"?
- The question one demanding a new router?
- DOE the question indicates the need to uninstall the printer and then perform a reinstall?
- With all machine software updates could be software problems cross machine?

HP officejet 5610 all-in-one does not print one when it does print a map from 2 months ago.
Officejet 5610 all-in-one will print no one when it does print a map of 2 months ago
Officejet 5610 all-in-one will print no one when it does print a map of 2 months ago
Who is this? Do not print or print the old data?
Under what circumstances does the former print job print (for example, after restarting)?
Follow these steps:
Open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK)
Type the following command and press ENTER after each line:
net stop spooler
del "% windir%\system32\spool\PRINTERS\*.*" [Y when prompted type]

Officejet 6310 all-in-One fainted during the printing and copying
I have an Officejet 6310 all-in-one. I have Windows Vista. Yesterday, I replaced the black cartridge with HP98. Now when I make copies or print a document, print the page gets more light and more light, about 1/3 to 1/2 through the page and very light down by a horizontal white line through the text. I cleaned the cartridge with a damp cloth, I ran the command of cartridges clean but also align the cartridges. I turned off the printer and unplugged and restarted again. When I run a self-test page, especially the black line went up to 2/3 of the way, then it is empty at the top and gets darker, then the last 1/3 is fine. The test pattern shows a few holes in the grid to black.
I just checked the cushion under the black ink cartridge and it is saturated with ink. I don't know that is where the problem originated. I would be very grateful of any advice to solve this problem.
Thank you.
Is it a HP cartridge or a charging/reman? It seems to be a faulty cartridge. If it is an original HP, then check the warranty of the cartridge as shown here.
It is unlikely that the ink that you see in the field of the service station is the issue. The ink that you see is the result of the normal maintenance routine that the printer uses to keep the printheads from clogging. It is normal that there is ink in this area.

HP OfficeJet 7310 all-in-One slow takes 15 minutes to print the page
Why my HP OfficeJet 7310 all-in-One printer suddenly run so slow it takes 15 minutes or more to print a page? I use MacBook with OS 10.7 Lion and reinstalled the latest drivers that have been for OS Snow Leopard. How to speed this up?
Hello
If the same behavior appears in copying autonomous
Even though the USB cable is disconnected, so the computer is without impact on the device and not related to the problem
By the information provided, the problem is with your printer hardware
However, make sure that your cartridges are without impact on your printer
Make sure the expirations of ink did not both for black and color, as well, try to isolate the problem and check if cartridges it may as follows
Remove the color cartridge and try to print from the computer
Now repeat the same thing with black ink only
If the problem occurs with a specific cartridge only, replace the cartridge.
If the same behavior is displayed for either of these tests, I suggest you try a different power outlet. If there is no change yet, contact the HP call center in your area, in an attempt to reset your device.
It is our last chance, otherwise it will repair the product
