This is the second HP printer of this same model (HP Officejet Pro L7680) that has become unusable, both suffered the same issue. When the printer is new it prints fine but after a 1000-ish pages it starts to streak. It starts out light and progresses from white streaks through pictures and text to just black streaks across a perfectly white paper. I've tried replacing HP issue ink cartridges, both print heads, and have run all of the printer menu based "maintenance" that is possible. HP customer support suggest I send back this unit for yet another refurbished replacement that will cost me around $100 plus shipping (and this is very heavy). I'm ready to give up on HP and this printer for good. Does anybody have any suggestions for fixing the problem pictured in the link below?
