You will also find that running the calibration routine in the menu makes no difference.
Just in case you don't know how to perform the calibration, this is how it's done:
- Press the green button with the tick on it (select)
- Press the right arrow button, System Setup shows on the display, press select
- Press right twice to show Print quality and press select
- The display will now show Calibrate Color, press select
- Calibrate Color Now will be on the display, press select
- You will now see Press √ to calibrate now, press select
- The display will briefly show Printing Document and change to Calibrating
- After a few minutes, the printer will return to Ready
Super NVRAM initializer
CAUTION Super NVRAM initialization will erase all network settings. Before performing Super NVRAM initialization, print a Configuration page, which contains network setting information.
When a super NVRAM init is performed, the printer enters the Generic Product Mode, which changes the language and country/region settings to “undefined.”
NOTE Super NVRAM init will erase all data stored in the protected NVRAM settings.Before performing the Super NVRAM Initializer, you will need to print out the config page, network config, and service page. You will need to print these out again after and change any settings that have been reset. The two times I've had to do this, I've been lucky and the settings have been ok.
Config Page
- Press select
- Display shows Reports, press select
- Press the right button twice
- Display shows Config Report, press select
- Press select, on Reports, press select
- Press right four times, on Network Report, press select
- Press select, on Reports, press select
- Press the left button, on Service Page, press select
- Turn printer off
- Hold down left and right arrow keys
- Turn printer on
- When you see the message Permanent storage init, release the (Left arrow) and (Right arrow) buttons
TURN OFF
You won't have to turn the printer off and on. If you wait a few seconds, it resets itself.
When the printer is "READY", print out another test page. You should find that the black is now aligned properly but the image might look blurred because the red is not aligned. Simply run the calibration procedure described earlier and everything should now be ok.
Don't forget to reset any settings, especially the network settings.

Thank you SO much. My alignment problem cropped up a couple years ago, and after spending several hours on the phone with HP, and bringing the printer to a repair shop, I had written off the printer as either irreparable or not worth the price of fixing. Which was especially frustrating since I had three brand-new toner cartridges in there. Your fix worked like a charm.
ReplyDeleteThanks, misalignment problem has been solved in a minute. Thanks for sharing the solution.
ReplyDeleteAfter hours of messing about, tried this fix and it worked perfectly. Thank you very much.
ReplyDeleteTried that, unfortunately with no result on my CM2320fxi. Do you by any chance have other suggestions? Thank you very much for your time...
ReplyDeleteOn the CM2320, poor color alignment can be caused by the transfer belt, toner cartridges, main drive gear assembly.
ReplyDeleteAre the toner cartridges genuine HP ones?
Remove the toner cartridges and look at the condition of the transfer belt below them. If you have poor quality toner cartridges, they can drop toner on to the transfer belt.
If you print on labels, check that one isn't stuck to the belt.
Great job for repair of colour cartridge. You have beautifully presented your thought in this blog post. I admire the time and effort you put into your blog and detailed information you offer.

ReplyDeleteI just changed my toner cartridges on my HP CP1525nw and starting having this issue with my color's being off. I tried cleaning and calibrating multiple times no diff. Before resetting NVRAM though it did occur to me to check FW version. I was on a 2011 FW and upgraded to 20140616. After that I did a clean and a calibrate and my issue cleared. Sharing in case anyone like me is still using older printers.

Wonderful!! I've had this problem for some years now. I don't print a lot, so my 2605 is still in fairly good condition, and I'd hoped it would last a lot longer. When I do print anything, it's had to be greyscale because the toner cartridges were so misaligned: I'd taken to using an inkjet printer for the occasional colour print that I needed. I assumed it was my toner supplier (not HP) that was the problem. I've just performed your recommended process and everything is perfectly aligned.:-D Thank you so much. I can only think that Hewlett Packard don't make this solution easy to find because they'd rather charge exorbitant repair fees!
