Internal print quality test pages
Use HP ToolboxFX to troubleshoot print-quality problems
NOTE: Before proceeding, print a Supplies status page to see the approximate number of pages
remaining for each print cartridge. See
Reports menu on page 211.
From the HP ToolboxFX software you can print a page that helps identify whether a specific print
cartridge is causing the problem, or if the problem is with the product itself. The print-quality
troubleshooting page prints five bands of color, which are divided into four overlapping sections. By
examining each section, you can isolate the problem to a particular cartridge.
Section Print-cartridge
1 Yellow
2 Cyan
3 Black
4 Magenta
This page helps identify four general issues:
●
Streaks in only one color: This is most likely a cartridge issue. Remove the cartridge and look
for debris on it. If no debris is found and the defect continues after the cartridge is reinstalled,
replace the cartridge.
●
Streaks in all colors (in same location): Clean the printer. See
Solve image-quality problems
on page 240.
●
Repeating defect in multiple colors:
Repeating dot in multiple colors: If the dot repeats at roughly 76 or 79 mm, run a cleaning page to
clean the fuser, and run several white pages of paper to clean the roller. If defect does not repeat
at 76 or 79 mm, replace the cartridge of the color of the dot.
