Printer model HP color 2605dn does not print from PC

I have the same printer and it needs to have all cartridges inside even if the color ones are empty and you need to select black and white in printer properties when printing

Hi,
According to your problem, The instruction is correct.First remove all pending print job from print queue by double click on printer in printers and faxes wizard. Then reboot the printer and system both. After turn on give a print job. If it doesn't help you then check the page setup in printer properties.

Please refer here to myearlier solution to the same problem, which was very helpful.
Let me know if any further clarification/ assistance is required.

Good Luck!
Appreciate generously, if the solution could have been of any help!

That problem is frequently on HP 2600 series.
You must try to change all remanufactured toner cartridges with HP OEM with no exception, the best alignment it is when you change the black cartridge and the printer make a cleaning page process. Cartridge HP OEM should be almoust empty. It Is not necesarry to be a new one. After the alignment process, you can put the remanufacturated cartridges back on.
This was work for me. 100%

Missalignment problems ae not uncommon with this series of printer.
The cause is one of the sensors (which are used for calibration and alignment) on the transfer belt, is faulty.

These sensors are NOT availale, and replacement of the transfer belt is the solution.

Transfer belt replacement on these printers requires quite a bit of dismantling, its not considered to be a user replacable consumable.

it is problem your printer driver is not properly install or data cable is unpluged

HP has a list of troubleshooting steps you can go through for the HP 2605dn when you experience print quality issues.

Two specific things I would try from that list are:

1. Clean the electrostatic transfer belt.
2. Clean the printer paper path.

Good Luck!
