HP 6500a prints too dark

Hi

My HP 6500a prints images too dark, it saturates the page with black ink and the images come out fairly dark but viewable.

It seems every other distro i try via virtualbox has different printing results using hplip-3.11.x

Why would this be?

Which model is this exactly? There are at least three printers, Officejet6500A E709N, E710A and E710N

Maybe you ask directly at the official hlip support site?

This one seems to be a similar problem:

Just in case: No, this has nothing to do with *buntu.
