  • HT4356 Why can I not print attachments from gmail on my ipad mini, it will print photos and anything from safari

    Why can I not print attachments from gmail on my ipad mini, it will print photos or anything from safari?

    For Gmail attachments, if they are PDF files (as well as many other formats) when you are viewing them on the iPad in Safari there is an option to "Open in iBooks" just below the tab you have open (at the top of the page).
    From iBooks you can print them to a wireless printer easily.
    Hope this helps.

  • HP OfficeJet Pro L7590 suddenly won't print yellow ink.

    My OfficeJet Pro L7590 suddenly won't print yellow ink.  The cartridge isn't empty.  It still prints everything else.  Things that require yellow ink come out a different color (ie: green comes out blue).  I've cleaned the printheads several times from the "tools" menu and the report says the printheads are in "good" condition.  I've also tried soaking the printheads in hot water for 5 min like was mentioned on here.  Still nothing.  Any suggestions?

    Hi - you've worked through all the steps in the support document here? http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01957673&tmp_task=solveCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc... 
    If you have, and still see bad red and green blocks on the PQ Diagnostic page (as described in the document), you may have to replace the black/yellow printhead (even if the printhead health is reported as 'good'). You can check your warranty on that printhead here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&docname=c00206040

  • Photo Prints Yellow and washed out

    I am having problems printing photos on photo paper.  I have windows 7 64 bit and all my hp software and drivers are up to date.  My printer is c5180 and I have not had any trouble in the past.  I upgraded to windows 7 in Dec., and have had several printing issues since then.  By the way, I really loved the photo premiere software that came with my printer, but is no available with windows 7.  I have tried printing from several programs including picasa, and the windows photo viewer, which I also don't like as much as windows xp.  I have tried several different settings, including the default everthing on automatic, messed with the color setting in the printer settup, and tried printing on 8.5 x 11 as well as my 4 x 6 photo paper.  If I print on regular white paper the colors are just fine, it is only when I use photo paper.  My photo paper is HP Premium Photo paper.  I have attached scans of two photos and you can see the one on photo paper is yellow and washed out whereas the one on plain paper has good coloring.  Do I need to change anything in color profiles? 
    I have no idea how to get my pictures to display.  They are on picasa web albums and I also tried to just drag them in. 

    Did anyone ever solve this problem?  I have the exact situation with my C5180 and I am about replace it.

  • Canon PIXMA MX712 suddenly won't print or copy anything - no color, no B/W, not even with Deep Clean

    Canon PIXMA MX712 worked great, no degradation in print quality (over last 1.5 years).  Suddenly won't print or copy anything.  Can't print wirelessly (from IPAd or computer) or plugged in with USB directly to laptop.  Can't copy.  Makes normal print head sounds and "prepares" to print.  Sounds like it is working and spits out nothing but blank pages.  Tried doing test print and nothing shows up on page.  Tried doing a deep clean and still nothing.  Tried unplugging and letting it reset and turn back on and still nothing.  Tried switching out printer cartridges and still nothing.  All lights are on for the print cartridges.  The printer says it is ready and never received a print error.  Please help me stop getting nothing but blank pages.  It would seem normal to start having streaking or blotchy prints, but not just to work great one day and then stop.

    I have the exact same problem ... printer is about 18 mths old ... I have done what has been suggested ... any other ideas

  • Officejet 6700 Premium - Pauses print job and won't resume

    I recently bought this printer and set it up. It was working perfectly. I unplugged it for a few days when I went out of town. And now, after powering it back on, it won't print anything. It immediately pauses the print job and won't resume.
    I checked to make sure it was still set up to my wireless and it says that it's connected. I'm printing from my MacBook.
    I have no idea what the problem could be. Not really a techie so please describe solutions in "laymen's terms".
    Thanks!

    Hi DeniseT,
    Welcome to the HP forums!
    You have an Officejet 6700 that is paused and won't allow you to resume on your Mac? This techie would be happy to help you get this working again
    What I'd like you to try DeniseT is to reset your printing system and then re-add the printer. This Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system document from Apple will explain step by step how to reset the printing system. Once you've added the printer back you should be able to print without issue.
    Hope to hear back from you soon with a success story

  • I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop and and HP Win 7 laptop (my wifes) print to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I have the latest driver installed. No problem when I had a Canon...

    I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop is running the network, and my wife's HP Win 7 laptop prints to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I do have the latest driver installed. I didn't have a problem when I had a Canon Pixma on the network, but when I replaced it with the Epson nothing seems to work. I go to add a printer to the queue and only the FAX function of the printer shows up - not the WS-4530 print function. Does anyone out there have any suggestions?  Please??? :-)

    Hi Kelly,
    As someone who has to print from my Mac to a networked printer at home all the time, I can certainly understand how frustrating it must be to have that fail to perform as expected. Let's see if we can get you up and running.
    I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
    OS X Yosemite: Printing troubleshooting
    Start with the section titled Check the network.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Officejet Pro 8500 A909g Wireless suddenly won't print yellow; no error messages

    Is it possible that a printhead needs to be replaced even when Diagnostics Pages all say "Printhead health:  Good"?   I don't have any error messages.  There are no obvious white lines through the colored blocks on test pages.  In a couple of blocks on some test pages, there is one, very fine, barely visible line, but it's not the same on all pages.  (Today I've printed about a dozen test pages of three different kinds that have colored blocks on them, and there are no white lines like the ones shown in examples of bad test results.)   I have used the tool for cleaning the printheads many, many times today and have cleaned at all of the levels.  The ink level in the yellow cartridge is fine, and it's been working well until yesterday and today. 
    The printing of the five colored blocks on test pages is good, bright, and clear.  The only problem is that the block which is supposed to be a light orange color is only pink, and the block that is supposed to be green is only blue:  they are lacking yellow ink.
    I haven't had any problems with the paper I've bought at Staples for six years (I also bought my printer at Staples ).  The printer is six years old but has not been used hard.  I use it regularly for a page or two a few times a week, so the printer isn't sitting idle for weeks at a time. 
    I read something in "help" information about using a straight pin to gently remove excess adhesive from the nozzle of a new ink cartridge, which didn't apply to my cartridge, but I decided to experiment anyway by pushing a pin through the nozzle of the partially-used, yellow ink cartridge,  The test page I printed after that is the page with just four colored blocks on it rather than the five blocks on a different test page.  This is the only time in two days that the yellow ink has printed.  However, it printed in a wide horizontal band a little streaked with gray in the middle of the block.  Then there are fairly wide white bands (no ink) both above and below the wide yellow/gray streaked band in the middle, and there are very narrow, yellow, horizontal strips  printed along the very top edge and the very bottom edge of the block.  In other words, the sequence of horizontal printing in this block only is:  narrow yellow strip, wide white band, very wide yellow/gray streaked band, wide white band, and narrow yellow strip.
    It seems this might mean that some yellow ink actually got through after I'd poked the pin into the center of the nozzle of the partially-used ink cartridge?  However, when I tried printing the same test page again, there was no color, no ink showing at all where the partially-printed, yellow block had been on the previous test page.  There was only a totally blank, white space where the yellow test block was supposed to be.  The blue block, the red/pink block, and the black/gray block all printed well.
    When nothing solved the problem of yellow ink not printing, I replaced the partially-used, yellow cartridge with a new yellow cartridge, but that didn't make a difference either:  the yellow ink is still not printing.  Yes, I use genuine HP ink cartridges.  I buy new ones whenever I need them -- never refill them or use any other brand but HP. 
    I used the alignment tool once to fix some slight wavering in the lines on a test page.  The lines are now perfectly straight.
    I apologize for being so wordy, but I wanted to send all of the details that might help diagnose the problem.  I read other questions and answers in the forum about yellow ink not printing, but while there were some similiarities, none of them was 100% exactly like my experience with the problem.  What shall I try now?  Thank you for any suggestions.

    Good day.

  • Using an HP officejet pro 8500 wireless printer and unable to print anything web based/inte​rnet

    checked wireless connection and it is fine but unable to print anything that is web based like an airline itinerary. McAfee says it is not the firewall. Any ideas?

    Are you able to print other things than web based ? Like word documents, etc.
    What behaviour you may see while printing from the web?
    As well, did you tried the HP Smart Print toolbr Application?

  • I have a new Epson wireless printer connected and the iPad recognizes it but it won't print. What is AirPrint and how do I connect it?

    I have a new Epson wireless printer connected and the iPad recognizes it but it still won't print.  What is AirPrint & how do I connect to it?

    Patti-
    Is your Epson printer on Apple's list of AirPrint capable printers?  See <http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356>.
    If it is an AirPrint printer, then your WiFi router may not correctly handle Bonjour data required by AirPrint.  Contact the router's manufacturer to see if there is a change to its setup or a firmware update, that will make it work.
    One other possibility is that there could be a print job stuck in the iPad's print queue.  Double click the iPad's Home button and a row of recent Apps will appear along the bottom of the screen.  Scroll across and see if the Print Center is there.

  • HP8500a won't print yellow or blue

    My printer was working fine and in the middle of a job all of a sudden stopped putting any ink on the paper.  I assumed it was out of ink and replaced the black ink, cleaned the print head, and aligned.  Then the printer said it was out of blue and yellow, so wash and repeat the above steps.  When I went to print again, only very little ink would print.  So, I tried several printhead cleanings as was suggested in a support article, but the print quality just continued to get worse.  Having come to the conclusion that I needed to replace the printheads, I turned off the machine and left it for about two weeks while I was on vacation, planning to buy printheads when I returned.  I tried printing again tonight just to see what would happen and black and magenta are printing absolutely perfectly, but there is no cyan or yellow on the paper!  And, my printer says those inks are almost empty!  I have done a few more cleanings & alignments, but as no blue or yellow is printing, where is that ink going??!?!  It is also now failing alignments. Any ideas or suggestions for where the ink is or how to fix my printer would be helpful.  Thanks!

    It sounds like you have a cartridge issue, which you could verify by gently blotting the printhead on a damp tissue.  A good cartridge would have a strong blot of cyan, magenta and yellow.  I suspect your's will be missing cyan or yellow depending on the cartrdige.
    Are you using HP cartridges or a third party refill/reman?  The latter often have quality issues, if you are using them I would suggest a genuine HP cartridge.  See the study here for information.
