How do i set my officejet pro k5400 to print avery business cards

my office jet pro k5400 starts off printing my Avery 8865 business cards correctly, but the image migrates upward on each line of cards.
I printed it on a piece of plain paper and held it and the blank card stock up to a light, and they were lined up. They Avery help desk said I needed to adjust my printer to the Avery card stock. How does one do that. Thanks

Here is the Manual link for your printer. http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c00873752.pdf
Go to Page 17
To achieve this margin setting on a computer running Windows, click the
Advanced
tab in the print driver, and select
Minimize Margins.
You might print out the Configuration Page (if your printer has the button) and see what your setups are.
Also, under Devices and Printer, you should be able to right click on your printer, choose printer preferences and look for an option there. I have downloaded template options from Avery at http://www.avery.com/avery/en_us/ that has allowed me to print specific media that I could not normally do on a basic printer.
On some Avery documents, the leading border edge is different than the trailing edge, so they have to go in a specific direction.
I hope this helps.
If I have been helpful, a Kudo is always appreciated.

Using windows 7, how do I get my Officejet Pro K8600 to print to 13x19 paper?

I purchased a laptop with Windows 7. Now I cannot get my Officejet Pro K8600 to print correctly to 13x19 paper. It prints onto 13x19 paper but everything is 8.5 x 11 in size. I click print, click properties, change the paper to Super B 13x19, hit ok, the box shows the 13x19 paper with the images filling the paper, I click ok for it to print and it prints the image 8.5 x 11 in size on the 13x19 paper instead of filling the 13x19 paper. I did not have this trouble (and still don't) with my old laptop with XP. Is it the operating system or is it a wrong setting in properties? I have tried to compare the properties settings in both computers, but I cannot find any differences. I don't think it's the driver....please help!

Hello HW,
Try this: go to Devices and Printers and right-click on the Officejet Pro K8600 and click on Printer Properties. Go to the tab called Advanced and click on the button called Print Processor. Select Winprint and click OK. Try another printout and see if it works now. If you still see the same issue see if there's a scaling option on the print dialogue in the application you're printing from.

How do I get my Officejet Pro 8500A to print card stock?

How do I print card stock?

Hi Jeff1212,
Review the following link which has the specifications regarding paper handling. If you have a card stock which is supported try cleaning the paper pickup rollers.

Printing from InDesign CS4 on Mac Snow Leopard to HP officejet pro K5400

I recently started using a Mac Snow Leopard with InDesign CS4; for awhile it printed fine. Then, dealing with a book mss, I had to get InDesign to convert the document to a PDF, and since that time, the Officejet Pro k5400 will only print in what appears to be the best quality, even when I tell it to print in fast draft, and even set that as a preset. Anybody had that problem? Anybody have any suggestions as to what is going on here? How can I get the printer to print in fast draft? Thanks for any help,

HP Officejet Pro K5400 - will NOT print on both sides

I recently built a new computer and everything is working great, EXCEPT one thing...when trying to print on both sides using Google Chrome, Microsoft Word, or another program it gives me the error message below. My previous computer had Windows 7 installed as well and my HP Officejet Pro K5400 had no problems printing on both sides of the paper. I tried using the Starter CD that came with my printer, but unfortunately since it wasn't for Windows 7 (only for Windows XP and Windows Vista) it will not install it. I also went to HP's website to downloaded the latest drivers. I was able to download them, but it hasn't fixed my problem. By the way, I do have a duplex unit on my prtiner (in case you're wondering). I'm not sure if my duplex unit still works, or if it's something else. If there are any solutions that you can give to fix this problem, I would be very appreciative. The error message is below:
Automatic Two-Sided Printing Module Missing
The document has been configured to print using the Automatic Two-Sided Printing Module but the module is not installed in the device.
The document will be printed one-sided.

Hi,
First remove and re-0attach the duplex accessory at the bak of the printer to enure it is well seated:
http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c00845167/
Next ensure the duplex unit is set as installed within the print driver by entering the Control Panel > Devices and Printers.
Right click the printer icon, then click Printer Properties.
Click the Device Settings tab.
Set the Automatic Two-Sided Duplex Accessory as installed and click OK to save the change.
Now try printing on both sides and check for any difference.

Hi,
The HP site doesn't list Windows server 2k12 R2 when trying to find driver for the "HP OfficeJet Pro K5400" printer.Is there a way i can use it anyway?

I'd try the Windows 8.1 driver since it is same kernel.

How do I print panoramic photos on an HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus printer?

How do I print panoramic photos on an HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus printer?

Thank you for this link! Actually I installed a brand new Windows 8 system in January 2014 and then bought the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus printer a few days later. To install this printer I did not use the CD that came with it but already used this link. Just to be sure that I have the latest version I again reinstalled the driver. The result is definitive: You cannot print common photo paper sizes like 4x6, 5x7, 8x10, etc. via a PC using photo SW like HP Photo Creations, MS Gallery, Windows Photo Viewer or any other SW on a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus. The reason is most likely that HP marketing decided that an Officejet should not be smart enough for photos, after all the company sells also Photosmarts. Because you cannot create your own formats you are limited by the driver to what is typically available in an office, in this case: A4, Letter, legal, Statement, Executive, A4, A5, A6, B54 (JIS), Envelopes #10-DL-C5-C6-A2-Monarch, Japanese Postcard, Japanese Envelope Chou #3-#4, L, 2L, O**bleep**u hagaki, Index Card Letter-A4, Edge-to-Edge Letter-A4, Env. Japanese No 3-No 4 and that's it, not more. Thank you anyway for trying to help me but in this case only the SW developers in HP can help.It would be great to be able to print from time to time a 4x6 photo on this printer like I would do.Copying photos on a USB stick or on a SD card first and then use this way to print on the printer is too cumbersome for me.

HP OfficeJet Pro K5400 no longer prints Cyan and Yellow all of a sudden. Please help..

Officejet Pro K5400 Cyan and Yellow just stopped working at the same time (very strange). I've read almost every post and tried almost everything including the diagnostic tests that show that everything is fine (via printer buttons), cleaning test and every other test available in the HP manual many times. The diagnostic test shows no problems and cartridges all brand new and full to max. However the diagnostic print only shows the Black and Magenta, but no Cyan, Yellow or any other color. I pulled out the print heads, cleaned connectors, soaked heads and everything else you can imagine and no luck. I must have pulled the power out and "hard reset" it over a dozen times. I can't imagine that both print heads (cyan on one, yellow on the other) just decided to die at the same time. I cant be driver/software related because I did the tests directly from the printer. The only thing I can think of is maybe cyan and yellow dried out when I took out the cartridges to take to staples with me for reference. All cartridges were out of the printer for 2 weeks or so. Any thoughts?

Officejet Pro K5400 printing problems after update to Mavericks OSX 10.9

Hi,
I have printing problems with my Officejet Pro K5400 after update to Mavericks OSX 10.9.
Now after printing 1 page the printer prints an extra page with '2345X' sentence on it. As this problem started right after updating, I suppose there is a problem with an update.

This patch did solve our problem with the K5400 feeding a "blank sheet".
Thank you.

HP officejet Pro 8100 will print from an Iphone but not from my windows laptop

HP officejet Pro 8100 will print from an Iphone but not from my windows laptop. I get an error stating "unable to communicate with printer"

Hi Melatina66,
Welcome to the HP Support forums. I understand that when trying to print from your laptop that you get a communication error message.
To better assist you, would you please provide some further information:
1)       How is the printer connected (USB cable, ethernet or wireless)?
2)      When you installed the printer on your laptop did you set it up with a USB cable? If yes, did you switch the connection type on the laptop from USB cable to ethernet/wireless?
3)      What version of Windows operating system are you running on the laptop (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8, etc)?
4)      When printing from your iPhone are you using Apple's AirPrint or HP's ePrint app?
Thank you.

My HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus printer will not recognize my wireless router passwrd

My printer was working fine but when I turned it on today it wouldn't connect to my wireless router. I try inputing the correct password and the printer gives me this message......"the WPA security passphrase configured on your HP printer does not match your wireless router setting" .
I have entered the password several times and I know what I have entered is correct

Hi @Southglen,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus printer will not recognize your wireless router password. I am sorry to hear this, but happy to help!
I would recommend to go through this guide, How to Find the WEP or WPA Key or Password for Your Wireless Network, just to double-check your wireless password, in case it might have changed.
I would also suggest a hard reset, by going to this post How to perform a Hard Reset, by @Rich1.
After those two steps, I would suggest a firmware update, Getting Printer Updates for HP Officejet Pro 8600 (N911), Officejet 6600 (H711) and Officejet 6700 P....
Let's start with these steps, and we will go from there!

HP OfficeJet Pro 8000 A809n print driver

I have a MacBook Pro running OS 10.7.5. For an unexplained reason, I lost the capability to print to the subject HP wireless printer. I opened System Preferences and clicked on Print & Scan. I deleted the driver entry corresponding to this printer and requested to add a new printer . It immediately found the A809n printer (my wife running a MBP with Mountain Lion can print to this printer without problem). I get a message stating:
Setting up 'OfficeJet Pro 8000 A809 [2F3790]...'
Software for this printer is available from Apple.
Would you like to download and install it?
with buttons for Cancel and Download & Install.
When I click Download & Install, I get a screen:
Setting up 'OfficeJet Pro 8000 A809 [2F3790]...'
Finding software
It progresses through about 25% of the % accomplished meter, then stalls. Eventually, I get the message:
Setting up 'OfficeJet Pro 8000 A809 [2F3790]...'
The software for this printer is currently unavailable.
Please contact the printer's manufacturer for the latest software.
Of course, when you go to HP to download a driver for this printer, it directs you to use the OS Print & Scan System Preferences which produces the failure mode described above.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Bob

You might try rebooting you computer first. Then go to the Apple menu and select Software Update... and if HP Printer Drivers v2.14 is listed, select it and update. If it's not listed, you can manually download and install from here. Afterwards, try adding the printer again.
If the problem persists, you might consider resetting the print system.

I use a HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909a printer and my Safari always put 150% size as default. Wy not 100%?

I have a MacBook (the white one) and use a HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909a printer and my Safari always put 150% size as default. Wy not 100%?
When I use Firefox the default size is 100%. When I use Pages, also runs good (100%). Only in Safari, and Mail too, appears 150% as the default size.
How can I change it to 100% in both?
THOMAS

Hi,
The problem seems to lie in the installer, which has an unusual bad behaviour. The installer puts the 8500 a909a in the list of USB bootable devices. (Not good!!!)
When the printer is disconnected it isn't a problem. When the printer is connected the computer tries to boot from the printer and the computer hangs.
When I found the printer in the BIOS list of USB bootable devices I DISABLED that item in that list. Then it booted normally.
But now the BIOS takes an extra 30 seconds or so but boot up seems to be preceeding normally.
The guys on the CHAT and PHONE lines didn't even imagine the installer might be a problem so their advice was useless. They were blaming the computer. More importanly, they didn't have a way to escalate the problem. They had no capacity to respond in a flexible manner. It was like dealing with unhelpful staff in the county clerk's office.

HP Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless Printer: Still getting vertical white streak on copies

HP Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless Printer: Still getting a vertical white streak down pictures. I have changed the yellow/black printhead. One helps note says I should try cleaning the scanner glass. Where is the scanner glass, and how do I get to it?
Any other possible solutions for getting rid of the vertical line? Thank you.
This question was solved.

HI,
THis looks like a issue with the printer itself as it indeed is a vertical mis. A cartridge issue would cause a horizontal issue. What you can tru is cleaning the carriage rod, the metal bar that you see in the printer, and carefully clean the transparant strip. Do this very carefully as its pretty delicate and if it breaks the unit is ready for trash.
