change the cartridges. Theres nothing else that can alter the color like that without rewriting the drivers. B4 you do, take each one out, shake gently from side to side to even out any toner, and try again.If they print better, your toner is low.

What has wrong is the toner cartridge holder has jumped a tooth and thats what is causing it. It is a easy fix but very hard to tell you over fixya. Steven 818-888-0006

It's possible that the toner in the cartridge is not evenly distributed. You can redistribute toner if you gently shake the cartridge from side to side, then reinstall it to see if this affects performance. Please also see this article.
You might wish to use the guided troubleshooting option available from HP support here. Or have a look at the troubleshooting section in the user manual here. Then clean the engine & calibrate the printer, as described pg. 88.
If that's no help, please see this forum post and the linked attachments within.

Hi,

There are 3 parts to the imaging process that could cause your issue. You have the toner (x4), the imaging drum unit (Q3964A) and the fuser unit. If you are getting streaks from all colors, one or more these parts are the issue.

Let's start with the easy stuff:

Open the cover as if you were replacing toner where you can "visually" inspect the toner and imaging drum. Pull the drum out and pull back the "plastic shutter" on the top, this will expose a green drum CAUTION! Too much exposure to light and touching it can cause damage. Just take a quick look trying to see if any of the lines on your page match any marks on the drum. Check the bottom half of the unit as well there should be a white section across the bottom, expect that as well.

Next look at the toner, if you can look at any other color but black it will help you look for the streak marks a lot easeier. If you couldn't see any streaks on the drum on toner cartridges, it's time to look at the fuser unit. Power the machine down and turn it around, unplug it then fold down the blue clips and CAUTION! the fuser heats the toner to the page so if it's been used recently it may be hot. once the clips are down, just pull straight back and look for the streak marks.

Sorry for the book, but I hope it helps.

When installing new cartridges, it's always a great idea to perform a cleaning and recalibration of the machine. Below are the steps needed to do just such a task. You may want to print these out or save them somewhere for future reference as well. They are directly from the HP website.

Push the button to align another color and open the door and take notes on where the carousel should be when changing a toner, Not sure why it would bypass yellow altogether but may be resolved by manually changing out the yellow. When you open the door to the toner compartment there should be something on the door that depresses something in the machine which will unlock the carousel and allow you to turn it by hand when you depress the same lever with some type of tool that will fit in the slot. Rotate the carosel until the yellow is where it should be when replaceing it then let go of the locking mechanism and replace the yellow toner. hopefully between changing the toner out and powering the machine off/on will get you back in business... Hope this helps you out and if it does please list as a fixya... if not, you may need to upgrade the firmware and that's not to hard if your on the network already...
