Text is something you want to see on the pages you print. Oftentimes, images are good, too. What you don’t want to see is a blank page. No text, no pictures, nothing. Just a blank white piece of paper.
We’ve already covered what to do when your HP printer is not printing, but the HP printer printing blank pages is a somewhat different issue. In fact, it’s quite a bit different. Whereas the first problem is closer to the printer straight up not turning on, the second actually has the device working as it should (for the most part).
The printer thinks everything is okay, and you’re unlikely to run into anything from the HP printer error code list. This can make solving this issue especially troublesome. Not to worry, as there are many different steps you can take if you’re turning up blank left and right.
To try and fix your HP Printer not Printing on Left side of Page, double-check that the cartridges in the printer are correctly inserted, the protective tape is removed and that there is nothing clogging the holes on the toner or ink cartridge. You can also try gently pushing the cartridge into alignment after the printer is turned on if you suspect it’s having trouble receiving them.
These troubleshooting steps are explained as below –
Remove the document from the document cabinet of the printer.
Replace it with new printer paper as the old paper may have been moistened on one side or may have irregular surface causing problem.
Start a web browser or word processing program and move to any website full of writing and pictures.
Print the document using the current material and inspect to see if the issue persists on the freshly published document. If If the report is produced uniformly, the problem was the ancient document. Continue to the next stage if the paper is written unevenly as it was before.
Check your pen or toner device position. There may be a screen that tells “Low Ink” depending on your printer, or it may be a straightforward condition indicator that shows green, blue or purple when replacing the cartridge. If the sensor requires substitution, proceed to the next phase. If the sensor needs no substitute, move ahead to stage 10.
Open the compartment region of the ink/toner bottle and extract the item.
Place a fresh cartridge in the carriage of the ink/toner.
Start a web browser or word processing program and move to any website full of writing and pictures.
Print the document and inspect the freshly published document to make sure it is displayed uniformly. Further, if HP Printer Does Not Print Word Documents then check this highlighted link.
