To improve print quality (Windows)

1. Make sure you are using original HP cartridges.

2. Check the paper type.

For best print quality, use high quality HP paper, or papers that adhere to the ColorLok® standard. For

more information, see Paper basics on page 24.

Always make sure the paper you are printing on is at. For best results when printing images, use HP

Advanced Photo Paper.

Store specialty paper in its original packaging inside a resealable plastic bag on a at surface in a cool,

dry place. When you are ready to print, remove only the paper you plan to use immediately. When you

have nished printing, return any unused photo paper to the plastic bag. This prevents the photo paper

from curling.

3. Check the printer software to make sure you have selected the appropriate paper type from the Media

drop-down list and print quality from the Quality Settings drop-down list.

In the printer software, click Print & Scan , and then click Set Preferences to access the print properties.

For more information, see Check the estimated ink levels on page 69. If the cartridges are low on ink

consider replacing them.
