Question

We have a HP Color LaserJet 2605dn at work that recently lost its mind. The red and blue colors are offset from where they should be and producing a rather trippy 3D look. I've performed a manual calibration through the menus and poked at just about everything I could find. These toner cartridges are not new (as you can see they're about 50% used) but only just recently started this problem. They were working great up until this error appeared. It happens on mac, pc, and via the printer menu printouts so I don't think it's a driver problem. The printer has been restarted and reset and is running the newest firmware. Anyone have any ideas?

Answer 1

It appears that this is a fairly well known issue with this printer.

The webpage HERE lists a detailed, step by step solution. Not 100% sure this is the same as your issue, but it sure sounds like it.

Also, if you are using non-HP Toner cartridges this can occur as well.
