● The printer driver might not work for the type of job that you are printing. Try using a different

Is the page format different than on another printer?
If you used an older or different printer driver (printer software) to create the document or the
printer properties settings in the software are different, the page format might change when you try
to print using your new printer driver or settings. To help eliminate this problem, try the following:
● Create documents and print them using the same printer driver (printer software) and printer
properties settings regardless of which HP LaserJet printer you use to print them.
● Change the resolution, paper size, font settings, and other settings. See Changing settings
from your computer for more information.
Is graphics quality poor?
The graphics settings might be unsuitable for your print job. Try the following:
● Check the graphic settings, such as resolution, in the printer properties and adjust them as
necessary. See
Changing settings from your computer for more information.
● Try using a different printer driver (software).
Note If you use a different printer driver, some product features may not be accessible.
