Solution 2: Use a higher print quality setting

Solution: Check the print quality setting and make sure it is not set too low.
Print the image with a high print quality setting, such as Best or Maximum dpi.

Cause: The print quality setting was set too low.
If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.

Solution 3: Rotate the image

Solution: If the problem persists, use the HP software or another software
application to rotate your image 180 degrees so that the light blue, gray, or brown
hues in your image do not print at the bottom of the page.
Cause: The defect is more noticeable in areas of uniform light colors, so rotating
the image may help.
