I've had this printer for several years using 98. In 2006 I bought a
Dell Inspriron and installed the HP drivers. It has worked fine for 6
months. One day while printing a few color photos, streaks began to
appear. This continued until it appeared I was running out of one
color in my cartridge. I bought a two pack at Costco, installed the
new cartridge, and no improvement. I removed it and installed the
second cartridge and the problem persisted.

Does anyone know why this happened and is there a reasonable solution?
 
Does the printer produce a test page with the same symptom?
Does the nozzle test etc. produce the same symptoms?
Have you checked the rollers that feed the paper?

It may be time for a new printer. It's gotten so that it's cheaper to
replace a printer than send an old one in for repair, at least with the
ink/bubble jet printers.
Besides that, a decent new printer usually has better resolution, and prints
a bit faster.
