How do I print a 4"x5" invitation on my HP Photosmart printer?

I have an HP Photosmart printer and have changed the printer settings to the custom size of the paper but it still prints my doc in the middle of the 8" paper width. It should be printing on the right side of the printer where rnvelopes and smaller sheets of paper can be trayed for the printer. I have tried to adjust every setting I know about in the printer settings. What next? My computer runs Windows 7.
This question was solved.

Nevermind. I found more settings to select the proper size paper under printer 'properties', then selected 'features'... success.

Printing 4 x 6 photos from an HP Photosmart Printer

Help - I cannot figure out how to print 4 x 6 photos from my HP printer. I've set up a 4 x 6 option in the page setup but when I go to print my printer tells me to disengage the photo tray (which is what I want to use). Also, how come the resolultion is so bad when I do print to my HP printer. When I insert the memory chip directly into the printer the pictures turn out great, but when I print from Iphoto they look terrible.

Hello John,
I don't have any HP, I use Canon, but if I give you the steps I need to take from iPhoto 09 to print borderless 4 x 6, then you may be able to apply this to your friends printer.
In the iPhoto 09 print dialog, I need to select:
Printer: Canon MP980
Presets: Photo on Photo Paper
Paper Size: 4"x6" (borderless)
Print Size: Borderless
Now when you press Print, the print dialog will appear. Here I have to select Presets again and set to Photo on Photo Paper. I then change the iPhoto menu to the Canon quality menus to set additional information about the image quality. Now it is ready to print.

Hi Jerry,
I am trying to print invitations. I have all of the correct measurements typed in, but it keeps telling me that there is a paper size mismatch. Is there some sort of conversion? This is frustrating as all get out. Thanks.

It is possible to print from an iPad to my HP 5520 Photosmart printer?

Do I need to have a Mac switched on to be able to print from a web page in the iPad Air ?

Your printer appears to be Airprint enabled. If the printer is on Wifi, all you need to do is choose the forward button on any page you want to print, then choose print and your printer should be viewable by your device. Choose your printer and print. You will only have to choose your printer once as it will be remembered the next time.

How to copy printed information onto party invitations that has a colorful bordered paper.

I have a party invitation that has a colorful border with a blank white area in the middle for text. There are two invitations on a single sheet of paper that is a standard letter size of 8-1/2 by 11. I have double printed the text I want on a standard letter size piece of paper and tried to copy the text onto the invitation without success. When trying to print, I keep getting an error message that says "paper detected does not match paper size or type selected. I need help in setting up the printer to allow me to copy. Help please!!

Thank you Sukrit for responding.
The computer I am using is controlled by a government agency. They do not allow users to install or modify any software. The file I am using, though a public document, may not be advisable to be posted online.
However, my solution to the issue was to reprint the document that I was pasting into and modifying the print settings to rotate the PDF image. First, I had to change the size of the PDF beyond the original full size dimensions to account for the scale change. Then change the print settings to print landscape while telling adobe's advanced settings to print portrait. After some finesse with other settings for scale, I was able to copy and paste the polygon without loosing the scale. This took me a week to figure out. An extreme waste of time for such a simple issue that should not occur in such a popular software.

How do I connect my Airport Extreme 802.11n to Epson 645 Printer?

I can't figure out how to connect my Airport Extreme 802.11n to my Epson 645 Printer. Can anyone help me? Thanks!

You may want to try reinstalling Mavericks. Airport Utility installed by Mavericks may no longer connect to your older AEBS (though I've not heard that.) Installing the Old AirPort Utility (Version 5.6) on Mountain Lion | frank.is.
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and
     after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears.
     Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
     Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
     Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
     Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Select ReinstallLion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from
     the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
     Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is
                three times faster than wireless.

How do I get my Mac air to recognise my HP c4580 printer?

I am trying to print an article (stored with Pages) using an HP photosmart printer C4580 but it says it is searching for the printer (which is connected by USB to the Mac Air) but cannot find it.
Also I can't seem to find Bonjour (which I have always relied on to recognise the various printers I can use).
How can I make the printer recognised?
Can I download Bonjour from somewhere? Would that help?

Bonjour is built-in to OS X. No download is needed.
Safari has a Bonjour browser which you can activate by opening Safari Preferences, selecting Advanced and enabling one of the Bonjour entries to add a Bookmark. If you then select the Bookmark, all devices on your local network that are advertising themselves with Bonjour will be shown.
With regards to the Air not finding the printer attached via USB, you can open System Information and select USB in the left column. The top right pane will show all the USB busses on the Air and if the printer and its USB cable are working correctly, then the printer should be listed under one of the USB busses. Do you see it? If not, try another USB printer cable.

How do I get my Canon MX860 back online so I can print wirelessly on my Mac OSX 10.8.4?

I recently installed a new and bigger Time Capsule on my MacBook Pro system and since doing so, I lost the ability to print wirelessly on my Canon MX860 printer. I am using Mountain Lion OSX 10-8-4.
I note Pahu discussion in another group on this same issue but it pertains to Snow Leopard. I don't know how much difference it makes but when I followed his instructions, I did not get my problems resolved. I am inserting here his discussion and in bold my comments where my results differed.
Pahu comments follow (min results in bold): Some of the new models of Canon inkjet let you set the network settings using the touch panel on the printer. I am not sure if your MX860 has this setting, called Easy Setup under Device Settings > Network. If it does then you can change the network settings and create a new print queue on the Mac.
If it doesn't have the ability to change the settings via the keypad then you will have to connect the printer via USB to your Mac, which will create a USB connected print queue. If you then open Print & Fax, select this USB MX860 print queue and then press Options & Supplies, you will see the Utility tab. I DID NOT HAVE THAT TAB I FOLLOWEED HIS LEAD USING THE FOILLOWING: MAC HD/Library/Printers/Canon/BJPrinter/Utilities With this selected then click Open Printer Utility. This will open the Canon IJ Printer Utility and within this utility you will see the Network Settings button. Select this and you can then enter the new network settings, such as the SSID, type of security being used and the password for the network. Save the changes, turn off the power to the MX860 and then disconnect the USB cable.
Now turn the printer back on and open Print & Fax again. For the USB print queue you just created, you can delete this. I NEVER SAW ANY PRINT QUEUES AFTER TURNING THE PRINTER BACK ON. ONLY THING I HAD WAS THE PRINTER LISTED IN THE WINDOW SHOWING IT WAS OFFLINE. And for the old networked print queue, you need to delete this also. You may also need to delete the networked scanner queue if you had one. So with all the old queues to the MX860 removed you can then add the new network printer. I DID TWO THINGS, FIRST LEAVING THE PRINTER IN THE WINDOW, I TRIED ADDING USING + BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. THEN I TRIED DELETING THE PRINTER IN THE WINDOW AND THEN TRIED HITTINH + BUT NOTHING EVER APPEARED. HAD TO RECABLE THE PRINTER TO THE MACBOOK TO GET PRINTER BACK. Click the + and wait for the MX860 to appear as a printer - it will appear first as a scanner and you can either add that now or after adding the printer. NONE OF THIS HAPPENED AND I LET IT SIT FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. Several seconds after the scanner appears the printer should also appear, showing canonijnetwork in the Kind column. DID NOT HAPPEN. Select this and the Print Using menu should automatically select the Canon MX860 series printer driver. When it does click Add to complete the network print queue creation and repeat the steps to add the network scanner if you need it. OBVIOUSLY, NONE OF THIS HAPPENED EITHER.
NOW IT IS ME AGAIN. Can someone please help me with this mess? I am so frustrated with dealing with this for three days and the only way I can print is using the RSB cable which is not so cool strung across my bedfrom the computer to the printer. Any guidance would be appreciated. I am an old man of 73 and way over my head with this mess. Don't know why Canon has to make this so difficult. Thanks in advance, Ron Wikoff

I too am experiencing the same problem, my Canon MX860 printer is no longer connecting to my Airport Extreme Router. I tried following the directions on Canon's website http://www.usa.canon.com/CUSA/assets/app/pdf/wireless/router_network_change_mx34 0_mp495_mx860_mp980_mp620_mac.pdf
I have tried uninstalling all of the printer drivers, as suggested in another apple discussion, then running the Canon IJ network tool.
I tried PAHU's response above:
Okay. No facility to add the MX860 to an Apple wireless network using the control panel so you will need to use the Canon IJ Network Tool.
So with the Mac connected to the MX860 via USB cable, open Canon IJ Network Tool (which should be located in Applications > Canon Utilities > IJ Network Tool). If you are looking in the other path you mention above, this could be an older version so download and install this latest version of the IJ Network Tool.
With the IJ Network Tool open, the first window talks about adding the printer to the network. Ensure the setting "Use the printer on the network" is set. Click OK
From the next window, the MX860 should be shown and as connected to the Mac via USB. Select it and click OK.
The next window will show the utility searching for wireless access points. A new window will then appear asking you to confirm the connection to the access point and the text will show which access point was found - which should show "Ronald Wikoff's Network". Click Yes to continue. When a window appears stating that the Canon IJ Network Tool wants to use your password, click Allow. (I cannot make it past this step. The Canon IJ Network Tool does not aoutmatically find my password. Instead I am taken to a screen where I type in my password and then attempt to connect.)
Now the window will take several seconds to setup the printer and should show a Setup Completion window. Click OK. (I never make it to this window. I receive an error message that that says the printer cannot communicate with the access point and to check the password. I checked the password then tried again. I even changed the password in the airport utility to make sure I had the correct password and it still did not work. I am starting to suspect that this may be related a recent Airport utility upgrade to 6.3.1 a few days ago.)
This will make the Add printer window appear. In the list, the "Canon MX860 series (00.00.85.xx.xx.xx)" should be visible. If it is, select it. The "Use" menu should then show "Canon MX860 series". If it does, click Add. This will add the network printer to the Mac.
If you now open Print & Scan, the "Canon MX860 series (00.00.85.xx.xx.xx)" should be in the printers list, as well as the Canon MX860 series. This latter one is for the USB connection. You could delete this printer and disconnect the USB cable.
The last step is to print a document to this network printer.
I plan on calling Canon tomorrow but if you have any other options for my to before then I am open to suggestions.

Hi,
You can print from iPhone that means your printer is connected to a wireless network and definitely you can print from your computer which has wireless (or using USB cable).
Now go to the following site to download driver and applications for it and install them on your pc/laptop:
