If you recently upgraded to newer Windows versions such as XP/Vista/7, you certainly need new printer driver for your printer to work. Drivers are applications that establish communication between Windows and the hardware (any hardware viz. printer, modem, router etc.). If the driver is faulty or corrupted then replace it by downloading and installing a new, compatible one. Also, regularly update drivers for smooth functioning of printers. You can download and update drivers from your manufacturer's website or simply run Windows Update to check if new updates are available to download. 123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com The printing text can appear too faded if the toner cartridge is nearing to finish, the EconoMode feature is on, or the print density is set on low mode.

To change print density settings, go to the same tab 'Printing Preferences' under 'Properties' in the 'Printer & faxes'. 123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com123.hp.com
