- Make sure that the paper or print media that you are using meets the general media specifications of HP. Generally, smoother paper provides better results
- If you are using a special print media such as labels, transparencies, glossy, or letterhead, ensure that you have printed by type
- Print a Configuration page and Supplies status page. To know to make this print check the Print Information pages of printer’s user guide
- Check the Supplies status page to see if any HP Colour Laserjet CP3520 toner cartridges are low or empty. If you are using a compatible toner the printer won’t provide any status. In that case, check the number of pages that have been printed
- If the pages do not print correctly, the problem is with the hardware. Contact HP Customer Care
- Print a Demo page from HP ToolboxFX. If the page prints, the problem is with the printer driver
- Try printing from a different program. If the page prints correctly, the problem is with the program from which you were printing
- Restart the computer and the product and try printing again. If the problem is not resolved, choose one of these options:
- If the problem is affecting all printed pages, see General print quality issues section of the HP user guide
- If the problem is affecting only pages printed in color, refer the Solve issues with color documents section of HP user guide
If none of the above work, try replacing the HP Colour Laserjet CP3520 toner cartridges. Sometimes faulty, dried out, low or empty cartridges affect the quality of the prints. Check the Replace toner section of the user manual to get step by step instruction on how to replace your cartridges.
