Decrease the print density setting through HP Toolbox or the
embedded web server. This decreases the amount of
background shading. See Using the hp toolbox.
Change the media to a lighter basis weight. See Printer media
specifications for more information.
Check the printer’s environment. Very dry (low humidity)
conditions can increase the amount of background shading.
Install a new HP print cartridge. See Changing the print cartridge
for instructions.
If toner smears appear on the leading edge of the media, the
media guides might be dirty. Wipe the media guides with a dry,
lint-free cloth. See Cleaning the printer for more information.
Check the media type and quality.
Try installing a new HP print cartridge. See Changing the print
cartridge for instructions.
The fuser temperature might be too low. In your printer driver,
make sure the appropriate media type is selected.

cartridge. See Changing the print cartridge

printer for more information. If the defects occur on the back of
the page, the problem will probably correct itself after a few
more printed pages.
