Choosing print paper type in set up?

I am printing to an HP Photosmart 7510 and when I go to page setup it will not let me choose any paper other than plain paper even though there are a variety of menu choices. I highlight the proper paper choice and it reverts back to plain paper each time. It does not do this when printing from any other program ... only in LR4?

You do this in the OS X print window that appears after you click Print in the PSE print window. You may need to expand the window by clicking the Show Details button, and then you'll see a pulldown menu in the middle of the window where you make your choices for paper, ink, etc.

  • Choosing the paper type when Printing to Canon S9000

    How do I choose the paper-type setting from the print options menu?
    The Canon OS X manual speaks about a pull down menu which allows for selection of "quality and media."
    I am finding options for printer choice, rendering, layout, print image etc, but nothing that allows me to choice glossy photo paper vs. matte, et al.
    I have also downloaded a canon software update without noticeable difference.
    Am I missing something obvious here?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for your response. I am accessing the print menu and subsequent options, but what I see is a window in which the correct printer is selected then below it is a section for choosing layout, then one for margins, rendering, image adjustments, image options. Everything but quality and media.
    If I futz around in I Photo I do see a limited paper choice option from a pull down, so I assume I am still missing something in Aperture itself.
    Thanks.

  • Choose printer paper Epson Stylus 1400

    I have a new iMac 27-inch running OSx 10.6.2 and a new Epson Stylus 1400 printer. I've tried printing from several applications including Photoshop Elements 8, and none of the printing menus offers a choice of photo paper.
    Where do you find that?

    Actually, my problem was much more complicated than that. The printer profiles were buried in a folder that was not accessible to Photoshop Elements. The solution is explained in this thread:

  • How to set the Paper TYPE?

    We have HP Multifunction printers here at work, example the HP Laserjet 4345 MFP.
    In Output Designer I have no problem setting the Presentment Target, almost always just set it to HP Laserjet 8000/8000N (PCL5).
    My problem is that I can control the tray but I can't set the paper type.
    My scenario is that the printer is defined at the printer to have Paper Type of 'Label' in Tray 2, and 'Plain' in Tray 3.
    When Jetform sends the job to the printer to Tray 2 it does not print on tray 2 because the Paper Type is set to 'Label' and then gets sent to Tray 3 instead.  The Jetform job in this case is a 8 1/2 x 11 label design, really intended for that Tray 2 'Label' Paper type.  It's important because when you set the Paper Type as 'Label' on the printer it mechanically slows things down and changes heat from what I've been told and handles label paper better vs. the 'Plain' settings.  The result is less paper jams.
    So...Can anyone tell me how to pass into the job paper type?  Paper Size and Input Tray, are the 2 options I see under Format Page and neither really address Paper Type.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    I'm surprised that nobody has any ideas on this topic!?  This is a major drawback or seems to be.
    FYI -  This is printing from an HP-UX 11.23 Itanium based Unix system.

  • When I crop picture (no constraint), choose print, can print picture 4 x 8

    When I crop picture (no constraint), choose print, paper and print size, can print picture 4 x 8 for instance, if choose smaller will cut off part of picture.  How do I tell iPhoto that I want the whole picture in smaller size?  If I crop with specific size, the same thing happens.  Help - what I am missing?

    Two choices - crop the photo to the print size (4x8 in your example) and print it selecting that print size on the first print window
    Or Print and on the first print window after making the selections click customize and right click on the preview and select fit to frame - this will print the entire photos with white space fill on the sides needed to fit
    Other than that your question is not clear - if this does not explain then please ask the complete question again with details and complete sentences

  • I have 10.6.8 and have installed two new printers HP 8610 and an Epson 7880 and can not find the Page Set-up menu anywhere in the applications I a trying to print from. There are no page sizes, paper types, appearsto be locked on a 13x19 size but It.

    Hi to the Mac Folks,
    I have 10.6.8 and have installed two new printers HP 8610 and an Epson 7880 and can not find the Page Set-up menu anywhere in the applications I a trying to print from. This is regardless of either printer selected.
    I primarily print photos from Photoshop CS5.  The term Page Set-up has gone missing in the file pull down menu. Can't make any choices  There are no page sizes, paper types, appearsto be locked on a 13x19 size paper format. Either being too large or too small.
    Saw a 2008 locked issue about this however none of the help fit my situation, options discussed are not available to me.
    Preview has no "Page Setup" - or does it?
    Does the constant struggle with computer compatability weirdness issues ever end or is it a enslavement scheme?

    Hey,
    if you know the name(s) of the root folder(s) you want to access (eg. by making a note on the Windows side) then you can make them appear by just doing Shift-Command-G in Finder ("Go to Folder…"), and entering the full path to the required folders.  You can then navigate all the contents as normal.

  • I can't get a proper connection to my Epson R1800 printer. I need to be able to choose Paper type and size. It keeps saying that the downloads are fine, but the System Library Extensions   SMC1255TX.kext aren't working?

    Dear sweet Apples, that know all the answers...
    I can't get a proper connection to my Epson R1800 printer.  I get the basics , but I need to be able to choose paper sizes and paper Types.
    It keeps saying that the downloads went fine,  but then it says that the System/Library/Extensions cannot be used because SMC1255TX.kext
    isn't working.  My downloads are useless as a result

    Did you restart the printer?

  • Printing: Why are most paper types disabled in HP printer dialog from Photoshop?

    Hi all.
    I'm trying to create a printer profile with a GretagMacbeth EyeOne. I've found that from the EyeOne software or from Preview, all paper types are enabled in the Print configuration dialog for my HP C5100-series printer. When trying to print the test chart from Photoshop CS3 (which is necessary, because EyeOne offers no provision for printing on 4x6 photo paper), most paper types (even HP-brand ones) are disabled. It doesn't matter what paper size or source tray I choose.
    For example, under the "photo paper" category, only the asterisked ones below are enabled:
    *HP Premium Plus photo papers
    HP Premium photo papers
    *HP Advanced photo paper
    HP Photo paper
    HP Everyday Photo Paper, semi-gloss
    HP Everyday Photo Paper, matte
    other photo papers
    Anyone know why papers would be disabled under Photoshop?
    Thanks.

    Just read this and thread 1889763 on the subject of greyed out paper types but only after two days of faffing around. I am on Snow Leopard and have just replaced a printer with an HP CC335 (also known as a C309a). Same problem. I get a full range of papers in Pages application but in Photshop there are only a couple of inkjet and photo papers and all the other media types and sub menus are greyed. I did not initally install any drivers from HP or the printer's CD as I had read the HP warning at:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01846935&cc=uk&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3 737195
    A short time after setting up the printer there was a driver update to 2.3 which happned through the Apple software update although I still see v 2.2.1 when I loook in 'about this mac.' Someone on Apple's forum noted that HP had released 2.3 drivers so I downloaed and installed them from HP yesterday. I still only see v2.2.1 and of course none of this has cured the problem.
    AS the printer is only a couple of weeks old I will retrun it unless there is a solution. Is there one? Anyone recommend a good all-in-one (plus fax?) that will function properly with photoshop?

  • What paper type to choose for self-adhesive labels?

    Trying to tell my printer that I'm printing Avery self-adhesive labels. But I don't see any settings for label paper under paper type.
    What should I pick, "Specialty Paper"? "Other inkjet paper"?

    You choose a standard page size. Most labels are on an 8.5x11 sheet and in portrait orientation. So select that size if it's not already the default for the printer.
    I've done labels on many Macs and number of printers. Most of the time, a template for the various Avery labels and their clones is available within the program that generated labels. I've not seen a printer setting for labels on any of the 5+ printers I've used to make labels, going back to Mac OS 6.
    Example: In MS Word 2008, the is a menu choice in Tools > Labels... that helps you set up labels. The screen will show an image of the layout you selected from the "Labels.." option. Word inserts section breaks and columns that exactly fit the Avery number you chose.
    At that point you can fill in each label manually or, even better yet, use The Mail Merge function in Office to populate the labels with info from a spreadsheet or a Word table. It goes so fast that it's probably taken me more time for my challeged typing skills to hammer out this repsonse that to make a bunch of labels!
    PageMaker and, later,Adobe InDesign have similar templates.
    So what program are you using the make labels?
    TIP: I have both a b/w laser and an ink-jet printer. I almost always use the laser for printing labels that will go though the mail. The reason: laser lettering is waterproof. If the the letter has ink-jet labels and gets wet, the ink on the labels will run and be harder for our postal employees to read and deliver.
    Note that a laser printer requires a special type of label stock that will stand up the high heat inside the printer.

  • How to change the paper type in printer settings?

    Does anyone know how to change the paper type in printer settings?  I'm trying to have the ability to change it to photo paper from Photoshop Elements.  I can't find the option in printer settings or through Elements.  I'm assuming I could save an additional printer setting for photo printing, but can't find how to even select a different paper type.
    thanks!

    It would help to know which OS you are running as the answer will be different if it's Lion or the previous OS's. You are not running iOS 5.0.1 on your MacBook Pro so provide the correct information.

  • Epson 3880 cannot change paper types in Acrobat Print dialog

    I use Adobe Acrobat as a RIP to print from on my Epson 3880. It looks like I might have to reconstruct all my printer presets since they've disappeared after the upgrade(?) to Yosemite 10.10.3. However the print dialog in Acrobat Pro X no longer allows me to create presets with different paper types. At least I haven't found it anywhere. Is this something that can be worked around or is this an "enhancement" to the new OS?
    Should I just give up and go back to Snow Leopard?

    Thanks a lot. Although i find it strange that every application sets this up individually. However, I did this in all Applications that I use for printing, now it works just fine.

  • Color laserjet 2605dn changing paper type does not make the change at printer

    I've had this printer for 2 years and have had this problem from time to time. This time I have not been able to find a cure. I'm running Win 7, 64 bit and the printer is on wired network.
    When I change the paper type in the driver page to photo paper, the printer should slow the paper feed to allow for extra thickness. It doesn't, but I can change the speed by using the printer control panel to set it to photo paper (a bit of a pain since the printer is in a different room and it must be switched back to plain paper the same way when done).
    I downloaded and installed the latest drivers (version 5.1.0.1), but this didn't help. The printer is still useable, but very inconvenient to use, so any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

    Look's like there are 3 different Universal  print drivers (UPD) on the site.  PCL6, PS and PCL5.   I recommend testing the PCL5 driver if you haven't as yet.   It is bizarre that this happens from time to time, but you cannot get it going again using teh same methods.  Don't know if you have swapped out the network cable to see if that makes any difference.  You can also try installing via USB to see if the problem continues in that type of connection, then run the network install again. 
    Is it critical that the unit slow down for this particular paper thickness?  Have you noticed any print quality issues by leaving it unchanged?
    Good luck.
    Though I work for HP, My posts express MY opinion, and not those of HP.

  • Am using PS Elements 8 with Vista.The print menu shows: "Paper Type:Unknown"

    Am using PS Elements 8 with Vista.The print menu shows: "Paper Type:Unknown".I want to use glossy photo paper.How do I do this ?

    Make sure the Printer is installed on your machine. If the printer is not installed on your machine the paper type will come as unknown.
    After installing the printer :-
    1. select the printer in the "Select Printer" setting.
    2. In the Printer setting option click on "Change Settings" button.
    3. Select the paper in the "Paper type" dropdown list.
