EPrint to CM1415fnw on 4x6 paper

I'm having challenges with odd size paper. I'm trying to send via email to eprint, a PDF thats 3.5x5.5 and another thats 4x6 to print on a CM1415fnw color laserjet. However, the image is only half printed, lots of white space at the top of the image. I have set the default page size on the printer to 4x6, which is probably why anything comes out in the first place and centered, but why? it might not print correctly is another story. Please help.

Hello MasterBoyer,
Welcome to the HP Support forums. I understand why trying to email your printer with an odd sized PDF document that it doesn’t print correctly.
To better assist you, would you please provide some further information:
How is the printer connected (USB cable, ethernet, or wireless)? CM1415fnw Color Multifunction Printers Product Specifications
Do you have the odd-sized paper loaded into the paper tray when you try to send the document?
Are you emailing the printer from your computer or are using a mobile device (Smartphone, tablet, iPhone, iPad, etc)?
What is the operating system you are using on the device sending the email (Windows 8, Mac 10.9, Android, Apple iOs, etc)?
Are you using the desktop ePrint software?
Thank you.
Regards,

Canon Pixma Pro-100 printer ejects 3.8 in of a 4X6 paper and prints only 2.2 in of the image printing from Photoshop CS6, I'm sure I set everything correctly - what could I be missing?

Using Mac Pro running Snow Leopard (10.6.8) & editing & printing from Photoshop CS 6.
Have new Canon Pixma Pro-100 printer and set it up yesterday. First thing printed was a
document from MS Word (a letter) 8.5 X 11 plain paper - this came out OK. Next I fire up
Photoshop and open a 4 X 6 inch image to do a test print. I set it up in the print dialog as
4X6 paper, Canon's Pro Glossy paper profile, rear tray, standard print quality, Photoshop
manages the color. I load the paper in the rear tray close the covers and hit print. Now, when
it starts to print the printer moves about 3.8 inches of paper out of the printer and starts printing
on the remaining 2.2 inches then spits the paper out. It does this in Photoshop (any image it doesn't
matter), and it does it printing from Capture NX. I have been able to get it to print on the paper
correctly using Apple's Preview program but that that's not going to do me any good. I was on
the phone with Canon tech support for about 2 hours and they were completely puzzled suggesting
I would have to use Canon's printing apps instead to print - that doesn't do me any good either.
I want to be able to print from Photoshop. Any one every heard of this or experienced the same
problem? Thanks JamesD!

Hello again. I recognize that a print is good if you like it and bad if you don't, despite what others might say, but I will at least share my experiences. They might help you or others who are following this thread.
My monitor is calibrated with Spyder 3. Gamma 2.2, 6500K, 83 cd/m^2. Contrast at 50%; brightness about 52%. My monitor lets me choose blackness level - it defaults to 50%.
When I print the test image I linked to above, using Lightroom, with no adjustments, my technical output is as follows:
Middle step wedge shows twelve disticnt steps. Whitest step is color of unprinted paper.
It varies from paper to paper, but I can discerne at least the 252 step and on some papers 253 - telling me I have good highlight detail.
On the black side I discerne 8 or 10, nothing lower. (That sounds like what you are reporting).
Artistically I am very happy how my print looks - nice red strawberries, good flesh tones, etc.
One my monitor, the on-screen image is almost identical to the print. I am surprised that you can see the 2 wedge step on screen at a very similar brightness.
I also checked out this B&W test image:
http://www.northlight-images.co.uk/article_pages/bw_printing/bw-test-image-2.html
You are probably aware of this since you are printing with Print Studio Pro, but others may not be.
You can print a series of test images:
find the one that best suits your taste, enter the calibration values in PSP, and save them as a custom setting. Then, each time you want to print recall the setting.
You can do a similar thing in Lightroom using the printer driver and User Templates.
There would be some one-time trial and error to that approach.

Cropping a photo to print on 4X6 paper, printing on paper and other issues.

Good morning everyone,
I have a Canon PIXMA MP830 and a Powerbook G4 running iPhoto 4.03
I just got the printer and was trying to print some pictures from iPhoto last week using 4X6 paper. I tried selecting paper size in the advanced features before printing. However, when I previewed in Preview, the picture was in the middle of the preview screen and when I hit print, only the upper quarter corner of the picture printed on only part of the paper.
I found on this forum that I need to try cropping the pictures first. How do I know that they are cropped to 4X6? I guess what I mean is, I don't want to cut anything out of the picture itself. If I crop, won't I have to take part of the "field of view" from my pictures? Also, even if I could do that to print it, how do I make sure that I can retrieve the original picture.
In the past, I have wanted to crop just someone's face. To do this I made a duplicate of the picture and then played with the duplicate so as to not lose my original. Is this the way to do it???
Thank you to everyone for helping me so much in the past and this time as well.
Sincerely ,
Jenn

hi Jennifer
in your preview window, do you have a box where you can check. it should say "center image".
cropping is not required prior to printing. you only need to crop if you are trying to isolate a area of the image. if you like the picture the way it is all you need to do is resize the image itself. either larger or smaller. anyone that tells me that i have to crop before printing i will guarantee to ignore.
i have been printing for a number of years, sometimes as a business i know what i am doing.
i save the images onto CDs before i begin editing. i edit the originals.

Print with 4x6" paper??

Hi folks - using the print module for the first time... I have 4x6" photo paper and I load it into my HP LaserJet P1102w correctly - but - I fail to see in the Lr3 Print Module where it gives me the paper size option to use a 4x6" paper" Closest fit is A6 which is not close enough.
Thanking you!

well that makes sense then. Can't imagine why my printer would offer so many size options but not 4x6, 5x7, etc... and for that matter it only offers millimetres and not inches.. Maybe in the initial setup it assumed I would not want inches but... inch dimensions are pretty universal pertaining to photos!
Anyways - thank-you. After much messing around and shrinking margins - I was able to print (essentially) a 4x6 albeit with a little border.
Cheers ~

Centering the image on 4x6 paper.

Still trying to print an image on 4x6 paper with a border and I cannot center the image. It makes no difference if I hit the "center" button.
I've gotten the latest Epson drivers for my MAC (Lion).
Also makes no difference if I "crop to fit", or not.
The image and borders look fine on the computer screen, but will not print what the screen shows.
Anybody have any ideas?
Richard

I did that; makes no difference. Still gives me no border on top, and 3 differenrt size borders on the other 3 sides. Makes no difference if I click "center" or not.
It looks perfect on the computer screen when I "center" it, but it doesn't print the way the screen show.
It also makes no difference if I click "crop to fit" or not.
I'm using PSE 9, on Lion MAC, with Epson 1280 printer.
It seems like the most basic thing that a PSE program should do is to center a print. In the past I've used this same printer with Photoshop, and no problem.

Can't print photos from iPhoto on 4X6" paper from HP 5180 All in One

Prior to Leopard using iPhoto, I had to select the 4x6 paper in the 5180 to get to that paper. Otherwise, it would print to the letter sized paper. Now it will only print with the large paper.

My Mistake! It is an 8610 All-in-One. (The 6000 series was our old one.) Sorry.

D7460 Photosmart cuts off borders on 4x6 paper in tray

Photosmart D7460 with 4x6 paper tray. Windows Vista. Printing from the Microsoft Photo Gallery.
Have tried phone support and live chat to no avail.
This printer comes with a 4x6 paper tray and when I print to it, all photos are cut off at the borders so most heads look flat. Have found no solution except to use 8.5x11 paper and print two 4x6 photos and then cut them out.
Can anyone help with proper settings specifics or is this not possible? 'would like to know that also.
Thanks

Hi there,
Unfortunately, the printer doesn't know exactly where the page is. That is, it doesn't knwo the exact position and skew of the page, so overspray is necessary to create a borderless image. You can print images with borders, or you can get some chopping of the image. Add to that, the aspect ratio of the original picture and the paper may not even be the same. For example, a 4x6 is not the same aspect ratio as 5x7, and neither of these are the same as an 8x10.
I think (can't verify right now) that if you print your pictures from the front pane, you can actually control where the cropping occurs, so you don't end up with tops of heads being removed.
Again, apologies, but I hope this helps somewhat.
Regards, CF
I work for HP and hope to make your day Sproutastic!

Eprint fails to print large paper size pdf

Hello
I often need to plot long PDF drawings on my designjet 111 paper roll version. With the pdf reader or professional acrobat printing turns out mission impossible, when there are heavy raster data behind, so i wanted to use the eprint and share solution. Up to a lenght of about 1300 mm it works really well, however when trying with longer drawings the software refuses to print. Is there any method to print longer pdf's with eprint? Is this parameter plotter specific?
I tried as well to print my drawings with the designjet GoWeb virtual printer, that directly creates plt files. But with this solution i don't manage to control the scaling and some frame margins are cut.
I know many people dealing daily with similar problems when plotting pdf drawings on their plotters. Pdf is still a interchange and archive standard in civil engineering projects and a complete solution within eprint&share would probably be very appreciated.
Many thanks for your answers.
Bernie

Hello Bob
i was led on this forum, because it concerns eprinting. i agree it would better fit the designjet forum.
I got an answer from HP concerning my problem and publish it here for info to other users.
kind regards
bernhard
answer from hp eprint+share team:
Sometimes a big PDF or DWG file appears as a non printable with the tip: "Not supported file size. Try to fit a smaller size".
The reason of that is the amount of pixels used to calculate the image is too large. The Adobe PostScript library used by ePrint&Share has a limitation for PDF and DWG conversions. Most of the HP printers work internally at 300dpi when the Draft quality is selected and in 600dpi when Normal or Best qualities are applied. Whit an internal resolution of 600dpi maximum plot length will be 1,3 m., and with an internal resolution of 300dpi maximum plot length will increase to 2,7m.
However, there is an exception with a set of printers that are using also 600dpi with Draft quality. In those cases the maximum length is always 1,3m. The printer list with this handicap is:
- HP Designjet T1100
- HP Designjet T1120
- HP Designjet T1200
- HP Designjet T1300
- HP Designjet T2300
- HP Designjet T610
- HP Designjet T620
- HP Designjet T7100
- HP Designjet T770
- HP Designjet T790
Keep in mind this is a question of the internal printer resolution. It does not mind the resolution of the image.
In the meantime, we recommend you to follow one of the next workaround:
Solution 1:
Step 1: Select Draft in the ePrint&Share quality menu for those printer that are not in the previous list.
In that case, DesignJet 111 printer can print in 300 dpi when "draft" option is selected.
Solution 2:
Step 1: Open the PDF you need to convert with a Adobe Acrobat (or any other program that can "save as..." the images with different formats)
Step 2: Convert the PDF file to a TIFF or JPEG format file.
Step 3: Add the file to ePrint&Share (in this way the file will appears as a printable file) and print it.
The conversion of a PDF vector file to a raster bitmap file format, is a step that the printer does internally to its predefined resolution when you send a vector file (PDF) to it. When you generates a TIFF you are doing, in advance, the printer job. Of course with two disadvantages:
- The bitmap files are bigger.
- When we resize a bitmap we are losing quality.
However, if you are generating a TIFF file format you could decide with which specific resolution and size you want to print your job, and in most cases, 150ppp is a good enough resolution.
If you have any doubt please not hesitate to contact us.
We apologize for any inconvenience.

Photos in iPhoto don't print on 4x6 paper

I have tried printing pictures from iPhoto to my Canon MP980 printer and the picutre is printing half of the picture (almost like it is set to print a 4x6 picture on an 8.5x11 piece of paper). I have changed the printer settings numerous times to 4x6 borderless and always double check before printing. I have even dragged it to my desktop and tried printing using preview and got the same result. I have changed the physical settings on my printer to make the default 4x6 but nothing seems to work (I even tried changing from landscape to portrait which only resulted in getting a little more picture printed).

Give this a try: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
A long shot but if it works will be quicker.

Not able to print to custom 4x6 paper size with Pages 5

I'm having a lot of trouble printing to a custom 4" x 6" paper size with pages 5. I create my custom size, switch the page setup to use that size in landscape orientation, and everything looks fine. Then when I go to print the document the destination paper size is set to "Suggested Paper: US Letter" instead of "Custom" as it used to be. If I do print on US Letter paper then its properly lined up at the top left corner, but if I print on 4x6 it is all cut off. I've tried scaling it to fit on my 4x6 size in the destination paper size menu, but that just shrinks the whole thing to fit in the center of the 4x6 in portrait orientation.
I am able to do this fine in pages '09, however I've already converted over 40 recipe cards to work with pages 5 and they don't export back to pages '09 properly.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to get this to work I would really appreciate them!

Pictures leave blank space at bottom of 4x6 paper

When I print pictures with photosmart C4680 on hp advanced 4x6 photo paper some of the pictures leave a blank space on the paper. It seems like it starts to print before the paper is loaded the whole way into the printer. The picture seems to be slid off to the left leaving a blank space on the right (or at the bottom). It does not do it on every picture and the amount of space differs from picture to picture.

I have the same problem with a Photosmart D7360. Looks like the image is displaced 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch. Does this for some pictures in a folder during a single print session but not others, and persists in doing this to those specific picture files when I repeat the print effort. Seems entirely random and is entirely frustrating.

Printing on 4x6 paper from LR's print module?

I'm trying to print a set of photos on 4x6 photo paper but the prints come out on the 8x11 paper sheets of my HP Photosmart 7520 printer. I've read all the forums on that topic and my settings are correct. The preview displays the images in the correct format, yet when I print, it comes out at the bottom right-hand corner of a full sheet of paper.
I don't have that problem in Photoshop nor in Mac's preview (which is what I've had to default to doing). I use a MacBook Pro.
Again, it works fine everywhere else, except when printing from LR5 itself. Judging from entries in the forums, this appears to be a problem, but I've not seen a solution listed. Help?!
Thanks in advance,
Michele

In the print module, go to page setup (bottom left of screen), and when the printer setup screen pops up. Set it for 4X6 as you would for Preview. You will see the new size reflected on the main preview window. Adjust the borders and size on the right panel, and choose print one. Should work.

Eprint won't print picture - paper mismatch

When I try to send picture through eprint -I'll get a top page saying where the picture was being send from but then a blank page after that. Then an error message saying cannot print - paper mistmatch.

On the touchscreen, look under the settings icon (the little wrench) and browse to Preferences to see if you have a default to set for paper. Mine has a category for 'Device-Printer Tray Select' ,though yours may be a bit different since you have only 1 paper tray.

Printing to 4x6 Paper

I have iPhoto 1.1.1 and I am having trouble getting it to print to my HP 5180 printer. Even when I select photo paper size in the print window I cannot get it to print on anything other than 8x11 paper not the photo paper.
Does anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks.

The print size and paper size are two different selections - paper is selected in the print window by telling the printer which paper drawer to pull paper from
