Print quality depends on cartridge health condition only, especially in inkjet printers.*Print head clogging: Usually white horizontal lines in print outs due to print head nozzles are clogged. Printer it self having self cleaning mechanism to clean the nozzles while printing & powering on..And "clean nozzles" option also designed in printer drivers for cleaning. And last option is manual cleaning. Alcohol is good solvent & best for cleaning the nozzles,use cotton or ear buds to swab on the surface of the nozzles with alcohol gently.. You will get good quality print outs if cartridges are in good condition..(see the snap shots)Other parts to clean: Encoder,disc encoder, service station & rollers needs to clean periodically to avoid malfunctions & paper jams.* Encoder's malfunctions: If any vertical or horizontal crooked print outs observed, clean both encoders needs to clean.. (see snap shot for encoders)*Service station malfunctions: If any carriage jams observed in service station, remove & clean it ..(see the snap shot)*Rollers malfunctions: If media is not picking up properly it causes jamming error,clean or replace the rollers..

How do you make the HP Laser Jet 1320 printer print darker?

usually when you click print and the box appears with printer properties, number of pages to print and size etc, there should be a document properties tab and the option to make it print darker, also check that the "Print in Grey Scale" is NOT ticked.

How to get the black darker

You can use Paint on your computer to modify it. If not it just might be the type of printer. See if you can buy darker ink at another store. If not your pretty much stuck like that. You can also go to copy stores or most major stores to get stuff copied for free or cost....

Does not print dark enough to read. Changed toner and adjusted print darkness feature. Still does not work. Any idea what to do?

Hi

When printing, just adjust the PRINT QUALITY to PHOTO because I believe your print quality is set to TEXT. I am sure it will print move darker than before.

I hope it helps you solve your problem.

My printer prints fine, but how can I make it print darker. It seems to have gotten much lighter and the ink is relatively new.

There should be a button on the top that says lighter/darker, move it 2 clicks to the right for more ink to be used..... please let me know if there is anything else you need, happy to help! Guy :)
