Printing quality problem with Photosmart D110

The printing quality is very bad after we changed the catridge. The printer keeps saying that there is catridge jam. But after I followed the steps by the printer, the problem is still unsolved. What is the possible reason and how could I solve it?

Hello RussellYang.

  • Print quality problems with bluetooth Canon ip90 printer?

    I've had this problem on prior PBs and the canon website is decidely NOT helpful so here goes....
    I have a pixma ip90v printer with a bluetooth adaptor added to my MBook. It prints fine and I had no problems adding it to my new computer (it was originally used on a PBG4 and I had the same problem which is...) - every now and then the print quality goes to a light purple as if it's trying to save memory. Has anyone else encountered something like this?

    Try resetting the printing system http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14141
    You'll have to reinstall your printer after the reset.

  • Print quality problem with Officejet Pro K5400

    I purchased the above printer on August 8th of this year and I have really liked it until now. The print quality has gone to ----! I have done a chat with a technician, replaced any of the cartridges that might be low and it is worse than ever. Two thirds of the page will print  okay and then the last third is either blank or very poor quality. I have tried changing the print quality from draft to best and it doesn't help. What  recourse do I have? I can't find a real person to talk to.
    Does anyone out there have an answer?

    I purchased my Pro K5400 in May 2008.  In the beginning it was loud (still is) but the printing was beautiful.  Over the last three months the color printing is really bad.  I've replaced the cartridges with only HP ink, I've aligned printheads, I've cleaned printheads, I've calibrated the linefeed.  The diagnostic suggests I replace the printheads.  Really?  After less than a year?  It also sporadically feeds several pages at once.  And, I do a lot of printing of claim forms, it arbitrarily expands the left margin.  Oh, it also jams often.  Again, I believe these last two are due to a feeding problem.  I sent an online question and got answers back in somewhat broken English that seem hooked on just replacing the ink and cleaning the printheads.  Also, they gave me directions on how to clear a jam.  This I know as I clear jams all the time in this printer.  They are unable (perhaps due to language barrier) to answer the feeding/jamming problems.  I really see this as just a very bad quality printer.  I've owned other HPs and never had problems like this.  What is the best way to contact someone in the United States about this printer?

  • LaserJet 2600n Print Quality problem (with a scan showing the problem)

    I'm trying to create areas of solid colour in order to use the toner transfer method of making printed circuits.  To do that I need to print really dark solid black blocks - when I try that I see uneven toner in certain areas.  This scan of the output shows the problem:
    There are lighter areas (less covered by toner) at the bottom (page orientation wise) of solid black blocks - but only where there is a subsequent block of black below!  For example, the leftmost shape's bottom edge is fine. 
    I'm perplexed.  I'm very impressed with the configurability of the 2600n, and I get the feeling that there's probably a setting I could tweak to solve this, and I'm hoping that there's a laser printer expert reading this forum who'll have some suggestions.
    Cheers,
    Chris.

    It looks to me as if you have your print quality setting in your printer driver set to standard or draft rather than set to best photo. This setting has to be changed in your printer driver which is accessed by the button in the lower left-hand corner of the screen when you are in the print module.

  • Print quality problems on Fuji Xerox printers when printing from ArchiCAD and/or Preview.

    Hello,
    We experience major print quality problems when printing directly from Graphisoft's ArchiCAD, Nemetscheks Vectorworks and from Apple's Preview.
    Basically we see various artefacts on our printed drawings, e.g. line thicknesses change and hatched patterns / fills are reproduced with patches where the lineweights and clours change completely... which is not acceptable.
    This affects the following Fuji Xerox printer models on both 10.6.x and 10.7.x with the latest FJX PPDs:
    ApeosPort C5540I
    Xerox LF6605 MF
    The workarounds for us are to either print PDFs from Adobe Acrobat Reader or via the rather dated Accxess Tools, besides that we prefer at times to print directly from a given Software it is also not always possible to generate a PDF and print it from Acrobat Reader... especially since the latest Adobe Reader update to its print dialogue makes printing from it extremely tedious - in fact we are considering going back to 9.5.2
    Obviously, we have approached FJX Tech Support and are awaiting a reply - however we are disappointed that this is happening on relatively new equipment and wonder if anybody else has already found a solution.

    The symptoms you mention could be related to the FJX engine and Acrobat is masking this fault. To test, you can create a Postscript file from the print dialog of ArchiCAD or VectorWorks and then download this to the Apeos RIP. If this produces the same result as when using the printer driver from the applications, then it would indicate that the engine is not capable of handling the data being sent to it from these applications.

  • Print Quality problems

    My print quality for Reds & Greens is coming out streaked. The blacks and blues are fine. I use HP ink cartridges anad keep them cleaned and aligned. But on the Alignment page the reds & greens are streaked and cannot be cognized. Could this be a print head problem ?

  • Printing problems with Photosmart D110a

    My Photosmart D110a (operating system Vista) prints half a page when printing a document from a web page.   If I am printing more than one page , it will print about 1/4 of the final page.  Seems to have problems with PDF files.

    Did you ever get this figured out?  I'm having the same problem with the same printer.

  • Black only prints on Print Quality Diagnostic report - Photosmart 6525

    I have a Photosmart 6525 printer.  On the 2nd page of a 2 page print, black rapidly faded out.  Cartridge only weeks old and printer ink level check showed it as nearly full.  I ran the Clean Printhead option which printed out a Print Quality Diagnostic when it was done.  All of the informational text printed perfectly but nothing in the black grey-scale box or in the alignment.  Still won't print or copy black.  **bleep**?

    The informational text on the print quality page is printed with color and black inks, so that if one or the other is not working the print will still be visible. 
    I would suggest going through the troubleshooting steps in the document here.  Be sure to check the vents as described in that document. 
    Is your printer still in warranty? You can check with HP's warranty tool here.

  • HP Smart Web Printing feature, problem with IE7 and FireFox3

    "HP Smart Web Printing" problem with Internet Explorer 7 and FireFox 3I have a laptop that came with: Windows Vista Home Premium, Internet Explorer 7, FireFox 1.9. Everything worked fine.
    Recently I bought a "HP Photosmart C4580 All-in-One" printer that came with a free software "HP Smart Web Printing".
    Smart Web Printing worked fine with FireFox 1.9 browser. I liked it very much, because with it, I could print only the portions from the web page that I want, thus saving on inks. It really does more than that.
    With IE 7, Smart Web Printing was a disaster. IE 7 stopped working. Every time I closed a web browser window, IE7 would stop working and start all over again. It happened all the time.
    On suggestion from Microsoft Windows help desk I "Reset IE Setting". This solved the IE 7 problem , but it also removed the Smart Web Printing feature.
    Next, one day I downloaded latest version of FireFox browser "FireFox 3". Once again I lost the Smart Web Printing Feature, because it was not compatible with FireFox 3.
     Now here I am with no "Smart Web Printing" feature at all.
     Any suggestion how can I get "Smart Web Printing" feature back. I love the feature
    Thanks

    March 27th 2009 I've just downloaded HP Smart Web Print onto an HP a6500f desktop system running Vista-64.  I first installed it as a limited user and I get no icon in the IE7 taskbar.  I examined the manage add-ons dialog and it was installed but the toolbar configuration has no control icon for SWP icon.
    Then I logged off and logged on as a privileged user and downloaded again and tried to install.  This 2nd installation actually REMOVED my first installation.
    So I then downloaded for a third time and installed and it finished installing but there was no SWP icon in the tool bar.  I examined the Manage Add-Ons dialog and saw one in there on the left side.  I transfered the inactive icon to the active side of the dialog and then I immediately had TWO SWP icons in the task bar. (*mumble grumble*).  So I removed one and all is OK now as long as I use the IE7 as a privileged user. 
    If I go back to being a limited user (not an unreasonable thing to do is it?) I don't have an SWP icon.  Trying to install SWP application again only cause it to want to remove the existing installation.
    I'm not very impressed with this behavior. 
    Is there anything that can be done to get SWP to work for limited users?

  • Officejet Pro L7590 Print Quality Problems - Black/Yellow Printhead

    Officejt Pro L7590 All-In-One
    Running on Windows 7 64 bit, USB connected to computer
    Approx 2.5 yrs old; has printed 30,000 pages.
    Issue:  Black/Yellow printhead replaced about 500-1000 pages ago; new unit only tested as "Fair" in diagnostics, even though it was fresh outta the box.  Print Quality good.
    About two weeks ago, printer refused to print, flashing ambler "!", etc., error message regarding black/yellow printhead.
    Ordered replacement ($71 again -- ouch!  Whole printer only cost $199 30 months ago).Again, new unit only "fair" in diagnostic (original Cyan/Magenta printhead still reads as "good"). 
    New printhead required much cleaning and aligning, and now prints with large gaps on a regular basis down the page.  Talked to tech guy @ Staples where i bought it; his only "helpful" suggestion was that most people just toss the printers the first time the printheads go bad.
    Print heads are separately warranted.
    My questions:
    (1)  What else is there that's screwing up my print quality,a nd is it fixable?
    (2)  Can i get my $ back on the two printheads that didn't fix the printer's problems?

  • C4780 scan this alignment page for best print quality problem

    My C4780 photosmart printer is stuck in the "scan this alignment page for best print quality" loop.   
    i.e. It keep display this message and refuse to print.
    My OS is windows Vista Home. 
    I had followed the steps in the user manual but still cannot fix this problem.

    Hi tsanchung,
    From the description of your problem, it appears that the alignment process was not completed successfully.
    I would recommend that you load the alignment page printed as shown in the section 'Step eight: Align the cartridges' in the link below to complete the alignment:

  • Epson/illustrator/mountain lion print quality problem

    Hi,
    I just upgraded to mountain lion and now have problems printing from Illustrator CS4 and my Epson R1900. The print quality has drastically declined. I loaded the printers software update, tried every possible print setting but just can not get my files printed in a decent quality anymore.
    I also tried to add the printer again but the response I am getting is : Can't install the software for the EPSON Stylus Photo R1900 because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.
    However, according to Epson this model is compatible with Mountain Lion
    Anybody else had this problem and/or a possible solution for me? Thanks in advance

    I think the server might be busy or there are problems. Try later.

  • Problem - HP Photosmart D110 and Mac OS X 10.9.4

    Hi guys,
    I have problem when try to scan images trough photosmart D110 on OS X 10.9.4
    The preview is ok, but when I try to save, file is saved corrupted.
    I try all available formats but same problem.
    Please any help will be appreciated...

    Hello @TI-Sonhart , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you are running into scan issues.  I would like to help.
    Does this issue occur when making a copy at all?
    I would suggest deleting the printer from your print system, using this document: Uninstalling the Printer Software.
    Once you have deleted it, I would suggest verifying and repairing the disk permissions: About Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions feature.
    I would also suggest running your Apple updates:  OS X: Updating OS X and Mac App Store apps
    After the updates, I would recommend reinstalling the  OS X v10.9 Mavericks: Installing and Using the Printer on a Mac.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • HP1280C print quality problem

    So I finally got my friend to upgrade his aging powermac G3 (with OSX and pagemaker 6.5 etc) to a new Mac Mini, He bought inDesign CS2 and Photoshop CS2 etc. for it (got a good deal) so I thought all was well.
    Then he goes to try and print one of his pagemaker files with it, and thats when the problems start, the greys aren't grey, they are blocks of random red/green/blue pixels, black lines aren't crisp but have jaggy edges, printed letters aren't crisp and black but have pixels all around them, sort of like it's trying to print anti-aliased but the printer interprets it as black & white and dithers everything.
    I don't know how to fix it, short of buying a different printer? He makes publications for a living, things have to look good, and they did with the crusty old computer.
    so, any suggestions on improving the print quality? we played with the settings in the print dialog, like forcing color or B&W, didn't seem to do anything.

    Which driver are you/he using?
    Do you have Rosetta installed, so that legacy drivers can work?
