Brand new HP Envy 5530 only prints half of 4X6 photo

Hello,
Looks like I'm not the only one having this problem and so far, the only viable solution I've seen in this forum with regards to this paritcular HP printer issue is to take it back to the store and exchange it for a different brand.
I bought an HP Envy 5530 less than a month ago and decided to print some colour photo onto photo paper with a 4X6 size, nothing special or fancy. I've tried printing from Windows Picture viewer (or whatever it's called) and Picasa, tried numerous printer settings, used HP doctor and it said everything was fine, and after 5 attempts and lots of colour ink, I still get printouts whereby only half the picutre is printed, all this on a printer that's 1 month old. Does HP have a solution for this?
Thank you

I have the same photo issue going on as well. I can print photos from an SD card fine, but now, out of nowhere, all my pictures I attempt to print via laptop, tablet, or phone don't print basically. Well half of the pic prints (if you could call it that) in whatever color it chooses... Sometimes it prints in all black, other times, all pink!! But then the other half of the photo paper just has large ink streaks. I've wasted probably 12 sheets of photo paper and large amounts of ink!! Please, if anyone has come across a solution, I would be ever so grateful!!!! HP.....Please help...I'm growing increasingly frustrated and disappointed with the quality of the printer!!

Brand new laserjet pro 400 only prints about 1" down the left side of the page

I just unboxed a brand new Laserjet Pro 400 for a teacher, and upon running a test print, the printer only prints about 1" of the text down the left side of the page. The text fades to white, and the entire remainder of the page is blank! I re-seated the toner cardtridges, ran the cleaning program, and am still getting the same results! Any suggestions? A scan of the page is attached. It came out this way after each solution that I tried!

To get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at Commercial Forums.
I hope this helps!

Photosmart c4780 is only printing half way when I print on 4x6 photo paper.

I've having problems on my HP Photosmart C4780. When I load a 4x6 inch photo paper it pulls the paper in, starts printing, pushed the paper out, but has only printed half of my photo.
It looks as if it starts printing before it reaches the paper becasue the back has ink lines on it and when comparing it with what prints, to what should print, the photo looks like it starts printing at the middle and is right up against the leading edge of the photo paper.
There are no error messages at all.

HP 8500 A Plus only prints half of first page from my mac

When I print wireless from my mac it only prints half of the first page (regardless of how many pages the document is) then stops. This only happes with my computer. If I make a copy or print from my phone everything works fine. I've had this printer for about 2 years and this is a new issue that didn't used to happen. I do not get any error messages when this happens.
Any ideas?

There is no full feature software and driver for your printer that is compatible with Yosemite @1Adam12 , so we know the issue is not the software. Let's try the following steps in order to resolve this;
Reset Printing System
Click the Apple icon (   ), and then click System Preferences.
In the Hardware section, click Print & Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan dialog box opens.
Right-click (or  Ctrl  +click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system…
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type the correct Name and Password.
Click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows no printer selected
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
Repair Disk Permissions
On the Dock, click Applications, and then click Utilities.
Double-click Disk Utility.
Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left (by default this is "Macintosh HD").
Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
Once the repair is complete, restart the computer and download and install the HP Printer Drivers for OS X.
Now when you add the printer, you should have the HP driver to choose,
Select Add other Printer or Scanner
Select the printer you are adding and next to 'Use' you can the printer driver
Please let me know if you can print a complete job now.

HO D110 series printer will only print half of page get error

Ever since I got a new lap top that has Windows 8 my printer will only print half of the page and then stops. I get an error message. I have used the online Wizard and downloaded the new driver but it still won't work. Also can't print wirelessly still from other devices.

Hello mrshayes,
I saw that you have a new laptop with Windows 8 and now the printer is printing half a page and will not print any more. I understand you also cannot print from other devices. I have some suggestions for you.
First, try to make a standalone copy from the printer itself. If the copy is successful, the printer tests out okay. If the copy fails, try resetting your printer and ensuring it is plugged in directly to the wall outlet, avoiding power bars, surge protectors, etc.
Here is a link on how to reset the printer: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c03177455
If the copy works fine, see if there is a Firmware Update needed: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c02919168
Also, run the Print and Scan Dr. to detect any issues. This tool might fix the problem.

Please let me know if you run into any troubles and I will do my best to help.
Thanks!

7150 HP only prints half page vertically

As title indicates, we have a HP 7150 that is currently only printing half a page (vertically), ignoring all text on the right side. It is connected via a USB (with no problems with the USB from other products). Operating system is Vista, updated to the latest patch. I've tried turning it off and then on, tried different Word documents, all have the same issue even from different computers. Ran the microsoft program to fix issues and that failed to help. No error messages on either the printer or computer.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Hi CelticKate,
I understand that your HP Envy 120 is only printing on the left side of the page. I would like to show you how to print off a Print Quality Report directly from the front panel of the printer. This will rule out an issue with the software on the computer that you're trying to print from. Please click on the link below and scroll down until you see "Solution six: Print and evaluate a Print Quality Diagnostic report and troubleshoot any defects"

Dozens of drivers will not load on brand new HP ENVY 14t-1000 CTO Notebook PC. Win 7 Ultimate N

I recenty paid for a brand new HP ENVY 14t-1000 CTO Notebook PC.It had entirely too much bloatware and I have doe fresh install's hundreds of times. The installs went fine but only 4 drivers from the driver page for this product on Win 7 will install. I am without the Wifi, Ethernet, Sound, Display, Smart Card Reader, and about 10 more that I am not sure what they are. I googled the PCI ID's of some and found what should be the driver as in the Wifi is the Broadcom driver from the support page for this product but after the install nothing happens. Then you get the pop up that says there was the program may not have installed correctly. If I point the device directly at the directory for any of these it says driver not found. I have never had such a time installing drivers for a supported OS. It came with Win 7 on it. I am just trying to perform a clean install. I will gladly provide the device ID's for anyone at HP that can give me a driver that will work. The ones on the appropriate page do not. I know I am missing the IDT sound driver, The realtek ethernet driver, I believe the ATI HD Video driver, and the Broadcom Wireless driver for starters but once again all version new and legacy on the drivers page DO NOT install. Help. I am this close to calling HP and returning this thing. I only received it today and would have no qualms about sending it back.

Hi: This is a peer to peer forum. No one on this forum is authorized to respond on behalf of HP to any posts made here. I looked at the support and driver page for the 14t-1000, and that model is 5 years old according to the release dates of drivers listed there. Ar you sure that is the model number? Can you please post the product number for the PC? The product number can be found on the same sticker as the serial number. You can also post the top line of each hardware ID's for each device needing drivers. I'll see what I can find. The driver directly from Realtek should install the card reader (PCI Device). You want the first driver on the list. http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=15&PFid=25&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false

Sometimes the wireless MagicMouse can be erratic and seem to automatically zoom in, etc. Try going to System Preferences and detuning the sensitivity settings, see if that helps.

My brand new ipad 2 have some uncomfortable delay on its photos apps

My brand new ipad 2 have some uncomfortable delay on its photos apps when i try to slide to next photo, it shows me a confident jerky and choppy. and it never happend on my ipad 1. it seems to happen lots of ipad 2 users.
and there still exists those problems on firmware 4.3.2
I couldn't believe that my brand new ( even set A5 dual core and 512 rams!) ipad 2 made this kind of delay.

Have you tried logging out of your account via Settings > Store and logging back in and seeing if that makes any difference ? You could also try a reset and see if they download after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
If an app is over 20 meg in size then you won't be able to download it over 3G, you will need to either use wifi on your iPad or download it to your computer's iTunes and then sync it across.

New HP envy 5530 won't print from my computer

I just installed my HP envy 5530 through a wireless connection. It will not print anything from my computer. It shows it is printing but then the printer doesn't do anything. I can print from my andriod phone though. I have tried using the HP print and scan doctor. It says everything is fine. When I try to print a test page it doens't do anything- it will print an internal test page though. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software (I also removed all old HP software)- that didn't help. I also tried turning off my firewalls- also didn't help. Not sure what else to do.
I have windows 8.1 and an acer computer. I have had wireless printers before (HP) and never had a problem.
Thanks for your help.

Hi usmc_roque,
Thank you for your reply.
I would suggest the following:
- Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
- Remove USB cable.
- Reboot PC.
- Download and re-install the software. HP ENVY 5530 e-All-in-One Printer Drivers . click the next button next to the Operating System type. (Make sure to choose Windows XP), scroll down, and click on Driver - Product Installation Software (1), then click on the blue download button next to HP ENVY 5530 e-All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Drivers to download the driver.
Try this as the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows, is only compatible with Windows 7, and up to Windows 8.1.
Hi dwneylonsr,
Thank you for your response.
I would suggest to power off the PC, then the printer. Unplug the power to your router for 30 seconds, plug the router back in. Then turn back on the printer, then the PC. After that try to Uninstall the Printer Software, and re-install again. HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
Hope this information helps, and have a good day.
