The problem is a problem of the printer driver, HPLIP. Ghostscript generates raster images of your pages with 600 dpi resolution and 24-bit RGB in all cases, which is enough to produce a high-quality printed image. The printer reports for the first printout that it uses normal mode and for the others that iut uses "BestPhoto" mode. So the print work flow seems to be correct. Also the detection of your printer seems to be correct.

The problem seems to be inside the driver. It seems that it does not send the correct instructions for resolution and color depth to the printer, probably the instructions work with another printer but not with your particular model. This is a problem in the upstream code od the printer driver. therefore I move this bug to HPLIP and also forward it to the HPLIP developers at HP.
