Check the EconoMode settings

HP does not recommend the full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, the toner supply

might outlast the mechanical parts in the toner cartridge. If print quality begins to degrade and is no longer

acceptable, consider replacing the toner cartridge.

NOTE:

This feature is available with the PCL 6 print driver for Windows. If you are not using that driver, you

can enable the feature by using the HP Embedded Web Server.

Vivid (sRGB): The product increases the color saturation in the midtones. Use this theme when

printing business graphics.

Photo (sRGB): The product interprets RGB color as if it were printed as a photograph using a digital
