HP 2300d Service Manual - Page 214

Note Image-defect tables Judgments about print quality are subjective. This section of the manual helps define print-quality defects and the factors that affect print quality. The print samples shown in the following figures illustrate some print-quality defects. Keep copies of print-quality defects that you encounter in the field and explanations of their causes. You can use these samples for future reference. Non-HP print cartridges can cause many of the problems that are illustrated here. When the customer experiences image defects, check the print cartridges to verify that they are HP products.
