Don’t worry; we have also provided the right resolution for it. Have a look:

Paper Jamming Issues

Paper jamming is one of the most common issues that may occur at any time. This could occur due to any of the reasons:

·         Accumulation of the dirt on the cartridge

This can be fixed by ensuring a periodic cleaning of the cartridge. But don’t give yourself a chance to do this, especially if you don’t have any idea of the inside configuration of the printer. In such an event, contacting the HP customer service team is recommended!

·         Selection of a wrong paper size for printing

Choose the correct paper size mentioned in the instruction manuals that have come along with the printer.

·         Worn down of the rollers on the printer

The only solution is to go for a roller replacement with the help of a techie.

·         When a piece of paper stuck inside the cartridge

Carefully remove the cartridge and then pull the paper out from it, in the direction of the paper path. Once done, set all the printer’s parts back to the cartridge.

Ghosting Issues

Ghosting is a situation where a print of the printed image also gets printed (a lighter copy though) somewhere else on the page. If such thing happens then there could be an issue with your power outlet with which the printer is connected. Check the same after connecting the printer to some other outlet. This issue can also occur when the consumable parts of the printer are in the end days of their life. Replace the parts such as drum or imaging kit to fix this issue.

Faded Prints Issues

Light or faded prints could be a result of one of these three conditions:

·         Low print density

Check out the current settings and then increase the print density to fix this issue.

·         Economode printing is turned on

Give a print self-test and figure out the current settings. Try turning off the Economode and then hit a print command again.

·         The Printer is low on toner

Remove the cartridge carefully and then shake it from left to right and right to the left. This will redistribute the toner. If the problem is still there, replace the cartridge or connect to the HP customer service team to get an immediate solution.
