It is possible that you have a clogged nozzle this is not a user serviceable part, you'd pretty much have to bring it in for service

If the results print out like this, there are two possibilities:
1. Red ink in the cartridge runs out. Solution: injecting with red ink
2. If the red ink has been filled, and check pattern is still not out, meaning the color cartridge error.
Solution: replace the cartridges

On the Print Quality Check Sheet each of the four colors is represented by a slanted square pattern made up of 96 individual blocks. The colors should appear in the following order from left to right: Black - Yellow - Cyan - Magenta.

NOTE: Cyan is the light blue color and magenta is the pinkish color.

a. If the colors on the Print Quality Check Sheet do not match the sequence listed above then the ink cartridges are most likely installed in the wrong order. Continue to STEP 4 to resolve this.

Printer output has shadows, blurring, streaks, lines, poor color

Seem like blocked hole(s) on the color print head...
Most likely if there is a deep clean option then do it (may need a few times to unblock a hole or never).
Also get the printer physically cleaned up if you can see dusts inside (vrtical lines on color bars).

1310 printing problem

To use the Color Correction Wizard, go to the printer's Color properties page, select User-defined color correction , then click Start Color Correction Wizard button. The Color Correction Wizard helps the user perform the following steps:
  1. Choose the sample picture to be used. This can be the document that's open in the current application, or one of several samples provided by Hewlett-Packard.
  2. Choose the type of correction to be applied to the picture. The brightness, the contrast, or the color balance can be varied.
  3. The Wizard prints the same picture ten times with different degrees of correction applied to it.
  4. Look at the printout and decide which of the ten is preferred.
A combination of corrections of different kinds can be used. For example, when selecting a brightness correction, the Wizard can be instructed to give another set of ten prints from which to select the contrast, or the color balance. When the final selection is made, the combination of corrections that have been chosen will be saved. This combination may be saved and used in future whenever selecting User-defined color correction .
