How to print photos on MG2120?

I have windows vista and every time i try to print photos from paint/easy photo ex/windows photo viewer nothing happens, I mean the paper goes in and it says its printing but it always comes out blank. I have no trouble printing documents, but no luck with printing photos. 
Any help is appreciated.

Hi CoolHandLuke,
A test page should be printed.  The nozzle check pattern shows if each print head nozzle is operating properly.
 1.  Ensure that the printer is powered on and the LED displays a 1.
 2.  Open the paper output tray.
 3.  Load a sheet Letter-sized plain paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder.
 4.  Press the <Maintenance> button to display [A].  The Maintenance button is the button on the Operator's panel which has the wrench and screwdriver label above it.
 5.  Press the Black Start button. The machine will print a nozzle check pattern.
The test page should have a black grid at the top and then 2 blue, 2 magenta and 2 yellow bars.  If the test page does not print these, printhead cleanings should be performed.  To do this, please follow these steps:
 1.  Ensure that the printer is powered on and the LED displays a 1.
 2.  Press the <Maintenance> button once to display [H].
 3.  Press the Black Start button. The cleaning will commence.
After performing a few cleanings, please print another test page.
The test page should print correctly.

  • How to print photos from my iphone?

    I have the HP Photosmart C309a,(wireless) and would like to know how to print photos from my iphone 3G.
    I have the "app" "HP ePrint Home & Biz", but I don't know if it's compatible with my printer?

    The app is compatible with your printer IF it is connected to a network (not via USB to a printer).
    If it is not working restart your router by pulling its power plug momentarily.

  • How to print photos in portrait and landscape from mobile phone

    Hi there,
    Have just set up my new HP Envy 5532 printer and am having a few issues with printing photo's from my mobile phone.
    Could someone please let me know how to choose between portrait and landscape.  Also, when I print photo's from my laptop, the settings let me choose which paper size to choose - does anyone know what a 6' x 4' print setting is? 
    Thanks so much and I hope I have made some sense with my questions!

    Hi @Monkey-Nicks, 
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums.  I  gather that you would like to learn how to print pictures on your mobile device to your Envy 5532 printer.
    You didn’t mention whether you are using an Android mobile phone or an iPhone so I’ve included the document for each operating system.  If you would like more print options than what you currently have available, I would suggest downloading and installing the HP ePrint app.  It gives you the type of options that you are looking for.

  • How to print Photo Info in the Custom Print Package

    I am  using LR CC, latest version on a Windows7 PC.
    I am trying to print Photo Info in the Custom Print package. I have no trouble selecting Photo Info in the Single Image/Contact Sheet Layout Style, but when I switch to the Custom Print Package, the Photo Info check box in the Page panel, disappears. I can't find any reference to this in the manual as to why this would occur, or not be available.
    Appreciate any help with this matter.

  • How to print photos from the MacBook Pro on the HP4580 printer

    I cannot seem to print photos in iPhotos on my MacBook Pro on my HP4580 all-in-one printer?

    Make sure you've cropped your photo in iPhoto to the same size as the paper size selected if you want a borderless print and have selected the same print size.
    Have you searched the HP website for drivers for the HP4580 printer or installed the latest HP printer drivers offered by Apple? HP Printer Drivers v. 2.13 for OS X

  • How to print Photo layouts and Collages with Photoshop CS4?

    Hello all,
    I just downloaded PhotoShop CS4 trial version and comparing it to Photoshop Elements 6. I noticed that there are no ways to print photo packages nor photo collages in CS4 ! The only thing CS4 can do is to print one photo at the time. Adobe Bridge only allows to output PDF photo layouts without any control on the output.
    Can somebody let me know if i need to purchase an Adobe Photoshop CS4 add-on package to be able to print photo packages/layouts and also create collages, or i have to stick with Elements 6 ?
    Many thanks for your support !

    Dear Bob,
    Many thanks for the reply !
    I have searched all over the Photoshop forums and never found anything about creating collage in CS4 !
    I have contacted Adobe in the last two evenings and the only thing they done were to transfer me back and forth between the Sales and service department and nobody were able to help me out.
    This is not a very good image they are projecting !
    I am a photograph and a very big PhotoShop Elements user, i downloaded the trail version of CS4, apart from a few added features, i have to say that PE does most of the work i need.
    But i still need to convince myself if i want to jump in the CS4 world !
    The only stopper for me at the moment, is printing and collage and CS4 seems to be lacking these features.
    Instead of directing me to the forum, would you know the direct answers to the following questions:
    1- Can i produce JPG format photo collages with CS4?
    2- Can i print photo packages / layouts with CS4 ?
    Or
    3- Do i need to purchase an add-on software package ?
    The Adobe Bridge ''output'' menu that comes with CS4 is well done, but you only can make PDF or XML files and you don't have any control on the composition: totally useless for me !
    Thanks Bob for your feedback !
    If i need to purchase an additional package, i'm removing CS4 from my computer and keeping PhotoShop Elements !
    With kind regards,
    Sam

  • How to print photos to offsite retailer

    How do I request my photos to an offsite retailer. Another words I have photos and want to print them to a large retailer but cant figure out how to do it? can anyone give me some pointers.

    Go to the retailers Web site and when you get the button to attach the files use the first tip here:
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 and later*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and later* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and later:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • How to print photos from snapshots gallery

    I have a Dell computer with Windows 7. How do I print individual photos from my snapshots gallery to include the date? I know I can go to "Locate" and print them from there, but they would not show the date, and the photo would take up the whole 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper. Can anybody please help me with this? THANK YOU! Chuck Roberts

    Skype does not provide any options to edit/print images saved in Snapshots gallery. You can edit/print these images with whatever software you are using for viewing these image files.

    I don't have a good answer for you, If you under a deadline to finish the project, you can always view the image at 100% and do a series of screen captures, then piece the image back together. Not the idea solution, but it should work.

  • HT4101 How to print photos from ipad

    Is there a way to connect ipad to a photo printer at walmart?

    No. Not directly by using a cable. That will not work. You will have to get the photos off of the iPad and then transfer them to card that you can take to Walmart. I believe that the camera connection kit will let you do this.
    If you have a Walgreens in your area, they have an app that allows you to upload your photos to them for printing.

  • Tips for printing photos with HP ePrint

    Hello, 
    I will be giving you guys a couple of tips on how to print photos with HP ePrint. These are general tips to make it a little more easier to use HP ePrint.
      #1: Have 4" x 6" photo paper preloaded in your printer
    The first step in getting quality photo prints with HP ePrint is having 4" x 6" HP Photo Paper preloaded in your printer’s dedicated photo paper tray. If your HP ePrint-enabled printer doesn’t have a separate photo paper tray, just make sure that photo paper is the only paper loaded in the tray when printing photos.
    All photos e-mailed with HP ePrint will print at a default size of 4" x 6".
    If available, your photos will automatically print on paper from your printer’s dedicated photo paper tray.
    If you don’t have photo paper loaded into your photo paper tray, this message will appear on the printer’s display: “Load paper into photo tray”.
    If you have 5" x 7" paper loaded into the tray, it will still print a 4" x 6" photo on the paper, leaving a white border along the top and the side.
    HP ePrint will ensure your image is printed with the correct orientation so your photo won’t be cut off.
    #2: Make sure your photos have a high enough dpi
    Check your image’s dpi: Right-click on your image on your PC’s desktop, then selectProperties, and the Details tab.
    The second thing to remember when printing photos with HP ePrint is to make sure your digital images have a high enough resolution, or dpi (dots per inch).
    Image files (like jpeg, bmp, tiff, etc.) need to be at least 100 dpi in order to print via HP ePrint.
    If you send a photo that is less than 100 dpi, it will not be printed. Instead, you will see a message in your job history on the ePrintCenter that says “Failed”.
    To print a photo or image that is less than 100 dpi, insert the image file into a Word document before e-mailing. Your image will be printed on paper from the main printer paper tray.
    Image attachments must be less than 5MB (megabytes). Also, HP ePrint supports a maximum of 10 attachments to a single e-mail. E-mails that exceed these limits will not print.
    Find out how megapixels affect the resolution and quality of your digital photos.
    If you guys have anymore questions let me know.
    Also, remember if you find any of my post helpful or want to say thanks make sure to click the white star under my name to give me Kudos.
    I really appreciate it!
    Thanks!
