C4580 Borderless Printing on Plain Paper?

I want to do borderless printing on a plain piece of letter size (8.5 x 11 in) paper. When I select borderless though the HP software tells me I can only do this with photo paper which I don't want because it just wastes ink. I'm printing on normal paper so is it possible to print borderless on normal paper?
Running Win7.
Thanks.

  • Issue with borderless printing using plain paper

    Hi,I previously used hp 7000 wide format for printing borderless (edge-to-edge) on A3 plain paper from pdf or autocad or even ms word.Now I am using Hp 7612. Here i am not able to do edge to edge prnting on A3 plain paper using hp 7612 driver.My operating system is windows 7 32 bit and I have both drivers for hp 7000 and hp 7612 installed in my PC.I find the driver for hp 7000 better for me.Is there a possibility to integrate the driver for hp 7000 for my hp 7612 printer? Please need your help. 

    Hi Roshan, With step 2 you have to do the following.Open notepad just so you can paste text into a document. When you already extracted the software you just need to go to the 7Z folder.In the run box just type %temp%. There you should find the 7Z folder.When you find this map you should copy the entire rule. Just like you would copy an internet address.x Then you should go back to the driver into printer properties.There you should go to the advanced tab and click on new...  When following those steps you should paste the link you copied earlier. Hopefully this is enough information for you.If not please let me know. Bas Pootjes

  • CM1312 always produces "glossy" prints on plain paper

    I have a networked CM1312nfi.  I print on plain paper, 24 lb.  When printing in colour, the areas of the page containing colour always appear to have a semi-glossy sheen on them.  (This occurs whether printing from Windows XP or Mac OS X 10.6.)  Is this normal, to be expected?  In contrast, when printing on an HP 4700dn at work, there is no sheen at all.
    Is there a way to control this? My properties specify that I am printing on plain paper.  If it is expected on this printer, why the difference with the 4700?
    Thanks for any ideas here.

    Hi Alanjt,
    I see that you're having problems with print quality.  I would take a look at the document below.

  • Tweak color profile when printing on plain paper?

    If Im unhappy with the colors when printing on plain paper, can it be changed?
    ..this is on a five cart Photosmart Premium c410a that uses 564 tanks.
    In particular, yellow is too dark, a bit "orangy" and photos are a bit weird: sky looks slightly smoggy brown.  
    In other words my question is if its possible to  tweak the color profile the HP driver uses when printing using plain paper -- for daily use.

    Have you found a solution to this? I'm wondering if the same can be done for the photo prints as well...when I print photos, they turn out darker and have a purple-hue to them. Please let me know, I look forward to hearing from you.

  • Cannot print to plain paper in iPhoto (or iTunes)

    Just installed a new printer - HP PSC 1510.
    Works fine except that if i decide to print a test page in iPhoto (b4 using costly photo paper) or a simple CD insert in iTunes, the paper type options for plain or automatic are greyed out & cannot be selected.
    In all other applications they appear!
    Has anyone had the same problem & do you know a solution?
    Thanks to you all in advance!

    Thanks for that. Unfortunately even if I select this when you check the Paper type details under the Advanced tab still overide this. Must add that this wasn't the case with my HP PSC 1210, must be the age of the driver?

  • No Plain Paper print option when printing on small size papers

    Hi,
    I am using an Officejet 100 and an Officejet 6500 on a MacBook Pro, Mac OS X 10.5.8. HP Printer Driver version is 12.4.
    I need to print on plain paper using paper sizes A6 or 4"x6". The print window of the driver does not give a plain paper option (it is greyed).
    Hence, I have to use some photo paper setting even though printing on plain paper.
    That is just too slow!
    Is there any way to get the printer driver to allow the plain paper setting on A4 or 4"x6"?
    Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Hello @bdosfan1 , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you are experiencing driver issues.  I would like to help!
    I would suggest deleting the printer from your print system, using this document: Uninstalling the Printer Software.
    Once you have deleted it, I would suggest verifying and repairing the disk permissions: About Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions feature.
    I would also suggest running your Apple updates:  OS X: Updating OS X and Mac App Store apps
    After the updates, I would recommend reinstalling the HP Officejet Full Feature Software and Driver - Mac OS X 10.5.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • No borderless printing; cannot print via imagebrowser...Please...help!

    I can no longer print 4x5 borderless photos (or any photos) from imagebrowser to my i850 canon printer. I have version 6.0.2.38(7L) of Imagebrowser with Leopard installed on my Mac. I select the print option, and then it says to click on Page Setup for borderless printing. The only option I get there is 4x6 (with a border)??? There is no 4x6 borderless like I used to have with the old imagebrowser and system. I set up the print dialogue box to select the "best" picture (used to have a setting for high quality pictures???) and then I click on "Print" and nothing happens. It never goes to printer and I can't cancel or anything. I have to do a force quit. How do I just print a 4x6 borderless print using Imagebrowser on my Mac??????? Any help is greatly appreciated and thanks in advance!!!

    I am not sure where to look for these drivers.
    Both the Canon v4.8.3 and Gutenprint v5.1.3 are included with Leopard
    I went to the Canon web site and downloaded the latest driver v4.8.3 and it put it where it needs to go but doesn't tell you where that is.
    It would try to copy them to /Library/Printers/Canon/BJPrinter, but since the same files for this version would already there be, it might not do this unless the file being added are newer. It should also copy the package installer for the 4.8.3 to /Library/Receipts.
    Anyway, when I went back into Imagebrowser I now have a much shorter list of options, plus do have the 4x6 borderless now. I click on Page Setup in Imagebrowser and select this, but when I go out of there and click on "Print" absolutely nothing happens. I still can't print from Imagebrowser. I use Quarkexpress and can print on plain paper fine so I know the printer works, but cannot print from within Imagebrowser for glossy prints. Any ideas what I may need to do?
    Not really. I used v6.1 in my testing. Maybe your v6.0.x has a problem with 10.5. Also, if you upgraded from Tiger to Leopard and didn't do a clean install of ImageBrowser, then maybe this is causing the failed printing.
    You mentioned you can print on plain paper from Quark. Can you print on plain paper from ImageBrowser?
    My last suggestion would be to view the cups error log. With the i850 printer queue open, select Printer then Logs & History. This may give some clues as to why ImageBrowser is not working for you...

  • Lightroom 2.6 Problem Printing Borderless Prints on Epson R800

    I have used Lightroom to print borderless prints (using the paper setting - borderless -sheet feeder) and all has worked fine until I downloaded the new Apple Epson driver.  I found this new Apple driver did not work well as the colours were washed out.  So, I went back to the current Epson driver for Snow Leopard (OSX 10.6.2) and I can print again.  (The prints are now a bit dark but that can be addressed).
    However, I now find I cannot print borderless prints (i.e. with no white edge) via Lightroom 2.6 using the current Epson driver and paper setting of borderless sheet feeder.  The printer responds with "media not loaded correctly".  When I go to Photoshop CS4 or iPhoto, I can print borderless prints. So, something is going on in Lightroom.
    Any suggestions?  Except of course to print borderless prints from Photoshop.

    Sam,
    I am still working on a similar problem with one of my Epson printers. The newer Epson R280 (may be R290 outside the US) works just fine with borderless. The older SP 2200 does not. I have been in communication with Epson, but not yet resolved. For most printers the newest software referenced for Leopard is with EasyPrint, but with this old 2200 the driver referenced is still not nearly as recently released as the EasyPrint frame work. The reply I got back from Epson was not satisfactory because it ignored the fact I am connected to my 2200 via Firewire and not USB, and all reference in the reply was to USB connection. Despite doubting the usefulness of the reply, I will have to move my 2200 much closer to the computer to try connecting with USB, and I simply have not tried it, since I doubt it will help.
    My issues with borderless on the SP 2200 are also present when printing borderless from Photoshop CS3 and from Pages. Thus it seems more a problem with Leopard than with Aperture.
    Sorry to not be more helpful or hopeful, but I think drivers for some printers are not fully tuned to printing in Leopard.

  • Borderless Printing

    I am trying to print out a simple, single picture as a 4x6 glossy print.  I have checked all setting in LR and for printer (e.g. paper size, orientation, margins) and still get a wide white border with a shrunken version of my image scaled and centered in the middle of my 4x6 paper.  How should I correct?

    You have to choose borderless printing and the paper size in the page setup option, which allows you to make choices in the printer driver. Then, in Lightroom, in the Layout panel, you adjust your margins, which you would set to 0, and then you would set the cell size.

  • When I print on photo paper it only prints in black and white. How can I fix this?

    When I print on photo paper it only prints in black and white. How can I fix this?

    Does it print correctly on plain paper?
    What do you do differently to print on Photo Paper than to print on plain paper?
    iPhoto has no idea of what paper is being printed - that is totally a function of the printer and the print driver supplied with the printer - you need to look at the printer specific options and your printer manual and/or support forums

  • HP Photosmart 7200 Colors are Wrong When Printing on Photo Paper

    I'm running Windows 7 and am having a problem when printing on photo paper.  The colors are off; mainly green.  The colors are fine when printing on plain paper.  I have tried printing from my computer as well as straight from the media card.  Same result.  I am also using HP Photo Premium glossy paper.  Print cartridges are brand new and are loaded correctly.
    Any solutions or troubleshooting tips I can try?

    Hi @Vay725,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that the colors are wrong when printing on photo paper! I am happy to help you with this print quality issue!
    For further assistance, I will need to know some more information:
    The Product/Model Number of your printer. Follow instructions in this link. Finding Your HP Product Model Number.
    If you are using a Windows or Mac Operating System, and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
    If the printer is connected, Wireless, or USB.
    If the printer is able to make copies.
    If the power cable is plugged into a surge protector, or directly to the wall outlet. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well.

  • Plain Paper Best Chops the Top

    Hello All,
    Within the last month, when I print in Plain Paper Best, the document begins to print immediately at the top.  This is especially frustrating when trying to print business cards.  The cards print fine when using Plain Paper, Fast Draft or Plain Paper, Fast Draft, Black and White.  What happened and what can I do ?  Thank you

    The printer will put droplets of ink on the page based on what it detects the media is (for printers with "Automatic" as a paper type) or the specified media in the driver.
    If you select plain paper, draft and print on photo paper it would use the same amount of ink as if you put in plain paper.  The results are likely to be very very poor if you do that, for several reasons:
    The pigmented black ink is not compatible with photo paper, it will not dry properly.  When photo media is selected the printer will not use the pigmentd black ink even to print text, it will mix color to make black.
    It takes much more ink to give proper photo settings on photo paper as compared to plain paper.  Using plain paper draft settings is likely to result in an unusable photo paper page, ruining a $1 sheet of photo paper to save a $0.20 worth of ink - not a good tradeoff.
    If you plan to print a lot of photo's you might consider a printer that uses the HP Ink advantage subscription service.  This service is based on pages printed, and they count photo pages the same as plain paper, even though a full page photo may use 10x or more the ink of a plain paper text page.

  • Is there any way to print a photo from my iphone on plain paper on my photosmart plus printer?

    Whenever I try to use Airprint to print a photo from my iPhone to my Photosmart Plus printer, it tries to print it on photo paper from the photo paper tray.
    I want it to print on the plain paper in the regular tray.
    I read online where this is possible with the iPrint app - but when I went to the App Store, there is no iPrint App.  I found a sticky post here saying that it has been removed from the App Store in anticipation of a new ePrint Home & Business version that won't be available everywhere until September.
    So, in the meantime, is there anyway to change the location of where the photos from the iPhone print?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    HI
    Most likely their is not, as printing pictures is standard set to photopaper as you most likely need good quality. Pictures on normal paper are not considered good quaity and thus not set as standard.

  • Why did I have to do a reset to keep my printer from using so much ink? Was not able to select "plain paper." Was printing in "Ultra Premium" mode.

    My printers (two Epsons) would not let me select <Plain paper> when printing anything, and always defaulted to <Ultra Premium>, which is the reason I've been using a ton of ink for the last several months. What caused that? I finally did a Reset to Basics which took care of the problem, but what created the problem?

    hello LesS., you'll probably have to contact epson's support about this issue, since i don't see how this would be related to firefox or mozilla products: support.epson.com
    thank you for your understanding
