HP Color Laserjet 2605dn won't print the red color

My HP Color Laserjet 2605dn won't print the red color.  It's comes out very light, barely a pink color.  It's not the ink cartridge because it's full and I'm having this problem even when I change cartridges.

  • HP Color Laserjet 2605dn - won't print in color

    I have an HP Color Laserjet 2605dn printer and recently purchased a new computer with Windows 7.  Our IT dept. installed an updated driver (HP Universal Printing PCCCCL 6) but now my printer will not print in color nor can I find a setting where I can adjust it.
    I also cannot duplex but found helpful post that I will use to try and correct that issue.  If you can help me I would appreciate it.  IT seems to busy to help and my work involves a fair amount of graphics so I need my color.
    Thank you!!!

    This post may be old but someone might use it later.  Right click on the printer and go to properties.  On the General tab go to printing preferences.  (Windows 7- double click printer, click Adjust print options.)  Advanced tab - expand Graphic, under Image Color Management change: ICM method to ICM handled by printer or host system.  Apply and close out the windows.  Run a test print to make sure it works. 

  • Laserjet 2605dn - Won't print the color RED

    My 2 year old 2605dn is acting up.  When I try to print a test page made up of several colors the color red comes out orange on the left side and fads to yellow on the far right side.  I have changed the toner cartridge (all cartridges are HP, no knock offs or refilled cartridges, EVER!), but the problem still exists.  I printed the supplies status page and the red column shows a full cartridge but the color is a pale pink, not red.
    Can someone tell me what's going on?
    Is the printer failing?
    Can this problem be fixed?
    Thanks for any help!

    Here is what to do:

  • Color LaserJet 2605dn for wireless printing, it keeps printing the first page over & over

    When I use my Color LaserJet 2605dn for wireless printing, it keeps printing the first page over & over again.  I have to cancel print job on the printer in order to stop it.   It works properly on the computer that is directly wired to it, but won't on any other computer that I try to print from.   I have had this problem for some time, but now have certain thing that I must print from this printer & can't do it wirelessly.  It doesn't seem to be my network, because I can print from all of the other computers onto other wireless printers I have in the office.
    Any advice would be appreciated!

  • Can I fix the alignment problems my Color LaserJet CP1518ni is having? The red does not line up.

    Can I fix the alignment problems my Color LaserJet CP1518ni is having?  The red does not line up.  I have installed the latest updates, etc.  Calibrating does not help.  The printer is only a few years old.  What gives?

    I have a similar issue with a Laserjet cp1525nw, it was mostly corrected by removing and reseating the toner cartridges.

  • HP Color Laserjet 1515n won't print

    Haven't been able to find an answer anywhere.  Even disconnected from the network and stand-alone, the HP Color LaserJet 1515n (product number CC377A bought at Costco not too long ago) won't print.  Can't print configuration page, no demo page.  Nothing.  It just sits there saying "printing" and flashing but never does anything else.  Tried resetting through the menus. Didn't work.  Tried holding down the right arrow and X to reset NVRAM.  Didn't work.  Any help?  For when I do get the printer to work on it's own, I'm on Windows 7.

  • Color Laserjet 3600n won't print from network

    Our small office has an HP Color Laserjet 3600n that has worked great connected to the network via ethernet cable for many years. When we came in this morning it refused to work after a power outage last weekend, and print jobs would just remained trapped in the print queue with either "printer unavailable" or "printer is busy" messages. No error messages appearred on the printer, and it prints fine from an attached USB cable. I verified the network cables, and am even able to access the printer's web interface a-ok via it's web address. It normally operated on all the default settings, I believe, and I can't figure out what else could be the problem other than a hardware fault. Any clues? We have a bunch of toner cartridges and would hate to have to buy a new unit now.

  • HP Color Laserjet CP1215 won't print on local computer

    I am using Windows XP.
    I have an HP Color LaserJet CP1215 connected to my computer by a USB cable.  It has printed many times, but I don't use it often.  I turned it on this morning to print an excel spreadsheet in color.  I use an HP Laserjet 4100 connected on a regular printer port for most of my printing.  Anyway this printer will not print from any program.  It will not print a test page.  I turned it off and on; restarted my computer; switched out USB cables; downloaded a new driver from HP.  I also download the diagnostic tool from HP and when it scans it, it finds it and says it is fine, but it will not print a test page from the diagnostic tool.  I have stopped the printer spool and restarted it.  I have done absolutely everything I can think of or that I have seen as a solution on HP.com and in my windows printer diagnostic tool.
    The weird thing is it prints when connected to another computer.  I hauled it to another office and connected it to another computer (Windows 7) and when connected it told me there was a problem with the driver, so I downloaded a driver from HP.com and it worked fine.   The REALLY weird thing is I can share it on my computer, go to another office, add it as a network printer and it works.    Why would it work as a shared printer, but not work for the computer to which it is physically connected?
    When I attempt to print, the document shows up in the printer spool and says "printing."  Then after a few minutes, it says "deleting" even though I have not manually deleted it.
    Anyone have any ideas?  I am fresh out.  I hate to think I have to walk to another office in my building to print to a printer that is right beside me.    Although it may be a good exercise. 

    I am currently in the same boat. I love how you posted this legitimate issue 3 years ago and there is still no resolution. It really reflects on the company's character and attitude toward their customers.
    Hopefully this will get a response.

  • Color laserjet CP1525nw won't print in color

    I installed both the PCL6 and PostScript drivers on my Surface Pro 3 to print to my Color LaserJet CP1525nw.  The printer is connected to my router.  The printer prints but only in grayscale.  What can I do to be able to print in color and continute to print through my router?

    Hi @PaDunc ,
    I see that you are experiencing issues printing in color from the printer connected to the router. I would be happy to help you.
    Please clarify, if the printer is connected to the router by a ethernet or USB cable?
    Did you install just the Universal Print Drivers or did you try the Full Feature Software also?
    I would recommend the Full Feature Software if that isn't one of the drivers you have already tried.
    Try and print the Supplies Status page to see if you have color, just to rule out a hardware issue.
    Printing or Viewing the Supplies Status Page.
    Make sure the greyscale option isn't enabled in the print driver.
    1. From Devices and Printers, right click your printer.
    2. Then click the Printer Properties, Preferences button.
    3. Click the Color tab.
    4. Make sure Print in Grayscale isn't checked.
    Did the colors print?
    What are the toner levels?
    Are you using Genuine HP Toner?

  • Color LaserJet 2605dn Printing only Black and white

    I have a Color Laserjet 2605dn and all of the color ink cartridges have run dry. However the Black cartridge has over 2,000 pages of ink in it and the printer will not let me prink only Black and White. It seems the color cartridges must also have ink in them in order for the printer to print. Does anyone know a work around so that I can print with the Black Cartridge and not purchase the color cartridges?

  • LaserJet 1020 won't print first document after powering up

    My LaserJet 1020 won't print the first document it receives after powering-up. Print manager shows that the document is being sent, the printer makes noise like it's getting ready to print, but the document is never printed and I don't receive an error messages. If I send the document again the document prints as does every document there after.
    I'm using Windows Vista Professional and the printer is connected via USB 2.0.

    Hi jnickelsen,
    I understand the printer won't print multiple copies.
    Thank you for your reply.
    I will be happy to help you with this.
    This printer doesn't have the Mopier settings.
    What drivers are you using?
    Did you download the drivers or are you using the Windows preinstalled drivers?
    If you are using the Windows preinstalled drivers then I would download the latest drivers. Here is the URL for the HP LaserJet Full Feature Software and Driver.
    I would download and run the Print and Scan Doctor since it might resolve the issue automatically.
    Find and Fix Common Printer Problems Using HP Diagnostic Tools for Windows.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can't install printer driver: HP Color LaserJet 2605dn drivers "not currently available from the Software Update server"

    I was having trouble printing to my HP Color LaserJet 2605dn from a Mac Pro running Mountain Lion, so I went to System Prefernces -> Print & Scan deleted it and atempted to re-add it.  When I try add the printer I get this message:
    Software for this printer is available from Apple. Would you like to download and install it?
    After clicking Download & Install (the only option other than Cancel), I get this:
    Can't install the software for the Hewlett-Packard HP Color LaserJet 2605dn because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.
    What's the workaround when Mountain Lion can't find the driver?
    Thanks!

    The 2605dn has dual Network and USB connectivity. Which are you attempting to configure: Network or attached USB?
    Printer on, and if networked, use a static IP address
    Print & Scan
    IP
    Provide printer static IP address
    Select Printer Software ... HP Color LaserJet 2605dn driver (not sure about that 2600 driver)
    Add
    Configure Driver under Options and Supplies
    I have a 1994 HP Laserjet 4m Plus set up using these steps and the appropriate driver. I just added another network printer, using the same IP address, but using the above 2605dn driver without any issue other than complaint about a redundant IP address.
    Hopefully, you have already sorted this out.
