Bad or Poor Print Quality

Check print quality setting
Check the printer setting which you have selected for this print job in the
printer software. While the EconoFast settings print faster and uses less ink,
it may cause text to appear faded or colors to appear dull. Select Normal
or Best Print Quality in the HP print settings dialog box.

Printer Toolbox.

Check paper type setting
When printing on transparencies or other special media types, select the
corresponding media type in the HP print settings dialog box.
