HP eprint will not print in grayscale using HP Photosmart 5510

Greetings,
This morning I installed the app on my husband Android phone and sent a .pdf file to print. When prompted I chose to print via the hp eprint and on settings chossed grayscale
The document printed in color.

You're welcome. No, you can send the photo to your printer from the app and have it print in gray scale. I just did it a moment ago. In your app, you have "registered" or signed in with your ePrint email address. Everything you send from the app from that point forward, is sent by sending to your ePrint email address. You need to open the app, click the gears (settings) in the top right corner, then select "Reset app data".
That will remove your ePrint email address from the app. Activate the app by signing in with your regular email address (instead of your ePrint email address).
Everything you send from the app to your printer will be done via wireless (instead of through ePrint email address).
When you use the app this way, your color/grayscale setting will work.
Please let me know how it goes.

Officejet 6100 - H611a Will not print in grayscale when color cartridge is depleted.

The title says it all. - Windows 7 64-bit
Officejet 6100 - H611a Will not print in grayscale when color cartridge is depleted!
Even though the documentation that came with the printer says it will. After 2+ hours on the phone with HP support over the course of 2 days, I have been informed that printer WILL NOT print in black ink only if a color cartridge is empty.
I thought anyone who purchases this model should know the documents included lie.
From page 31 of the Officejet 6100 user manual: "If a color cartridge is depleted, the printer will print in grayscale using the black cartridge." LIES!
The HP Help Programs says the same thing.
I have hard-reset the printer, removed and reinserted all the cartridges, set the options to "black ink only," Nothing worked. 3 HP reps all said the same thing, "You have to get a new magenta cartridge."
Will be retuning for a refund as I purchased this model SPECIFICALLY because the manual said it would print the grayscale without color ink present.
Have had 4 HP printers over the years, never even considered buying anything except HP. This will be my last HP printer. Extremely disappointed by HP's deception.

Sorry the printer did not perform as expected. I have escalated this in an effort to get this to the right people.

Which printer do you have specifically? HP makes several eprinters and I want to make sure I get the best information for you that I can.
Also, have you tried doing a self test print to see if the issue is hardware related versus being software related?

Eprint will not print from some email addresses

My grandmother does not have a computer but we have been using an hp printer to email her documents that are printed onto paper for her to read. We had an HP photosmart that died this week and we had to get an HP envy instead.
I changed the email address on the new printer to a similar one from the one we used before and changed the settings for printing to "open to anyone." Emails from our phones, gmail, yahoo or even my mom's work email address (which has tons of security) have all gone through fine but emails from my grandmother's church do not come through. They are not even registering on the collections to show that the email was sent.
It is extremely important that I figure out how to fix this. Any ideas?

Hi @turtle290 ,
Welcome to the HP forum.
I understand that ePrint jobs from the church are not printing.
The fact that they are not arriving in collections leads me to wonder, do they have the correct email?
It could also be something entirely different.

Date selection will not print properly when using Microsoft Date and Time Picker Control 6.0 in Excel 2010

I have created a field input worksheet in which the user identifies start and end dates for training sessions, using the Date and Time Picker Active X Control. It works fine on-screen, but when the worksheets are printed, the dates that were selected
using the date picker calendar print out in an unreadable, huge font. The large font also appears in the print preview mode. I've tried modifying various properties in design mode, but nothing that I have tried will correct the problem.
Any ideas?

The DTPicker seems to have some bugs in it when used on a worksheet. I have overcome the above by setting the size properties to the same size as a cell and the Linked cell property to the
cell under the DTPicker. (Even setting the Linked cell had problems with an error message referring to the Check box property to be set to true so I just set it to true and inserted the linked cell and set the checkbox property back to
false.)
Then the VBA code below that Hides the DTPicker after a date is selected and unhides the DTPicker when the linked cell with the date is selected. The code is for 2 DTPickers so you will need to edit to suit your requirements.
Caveat: If the DTPicker is visible then you can't hide it by selecting the same date again. If this occurs then it is a multi step operation. First select another date and the DTPicker will hide, then click on another cell then back on the cell with
the date to unhide the DTPicker and then select the correct date.
Hope it helps and feel free to get back to me with any questions etc.
Private Sub DTPicker1_Change()
    Me.DTPicker1.Visible = False
End Sub
Private Sub DTPicker2_Change()
    Me.DTPicker2.Visible = False
End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
    Select Case Target.Address
        Case "$E$5"     'This is the linked cell for DTPicker1
            Me.DTPicker1.Visible = True
        Case "$E$13"    'This is the linked cell for DTPicker2
            Me.DTPicker2.Visible = True
    End Select
End Sub

Hp 9800 printer will not print 13"x19". using vista home basic. tells me paper size is problem.

Deskjet HP 9800 printer, USB connection, Vista Home Basic 32 bit. I am trying to print 13"x19" colour and the printer receives info from computer, goes through a few gyrations and then feeds my sheet of paper out with no attempt to print. I have tried every possible combination of setup features and have tried to print at Max DPI and at Best DPI. Same results. Only error message ever received was one telling me of a conflict in paper size. That message was received twice during about 15 attempts to print. This my first try at 13"x19". I have no problem with 11"x17" colour or black and white.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Select "/var/log/cups/error_log" from the file list in the Console window. Then select the messages from the time of the last printing attempt. Copy them (command-C) to the Clipboard. Paste (command-V) into a reply to this message.
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

My HP Photosmart wireless ePrint will not print anything off my computer....

It will print a network test and says its connected to my wireless network. A box also will come up on the screen saying printing but then a box comes up that says unable to print. I have tried to restart my comp. I have ink (and paper lol) and nothing has worked. I have ran the trouble shooter as well as the utility tool. This printer is only a month old.... if that.

I wish I had better news, but if you've gone through all those steps and it didn't resolve the problem, you can replace the printhead and if that doesn't resolve the problem, you'll want to have the printer serviced.
Here is a link to the doc that walks you through ordering and replacing the printhead:

Will not print files from mobile phone says it **may have** a virus- and deletes the file

My HP photosmart premium with wireless ePrint, will not print files from mobile phone says it **may have** a virus- and deletes the file?!? My Fiance has the same phone, and I used it. It completed the file??? If I text message and E-mail address, my cell phone will come up as and E-mail address... has anyone else had this issue? Is it because I texted the the file? It didn't seem to be and issue on any of the other mobile phones used.... I am out of answers.... I tried to E-mail as well...
Thanks in advance

I have nearly the same problem, the printer discards my print job even when i have entered my email address as authorised senders.
Details from my other post:
I sent 2 emails to the printer:
- one is a 3 lines of text and numbers in a GIF file sent as an attachment
- another is a jpg circuit diagram paste in a word doc sent as an attachment
both are classified as spam and refused to print. i have no email coming back saying it failed (even i have checked "Email Job Status" in ePrint Settings.
So what will this HP printer print?
How can I switch this useless spam filter off?
I have get this filter off! I need this email printing to work reliably, that is a major reason I bought this printer
Any suggestions are welcomed...

"Now you can print from virtually anywhere" (but get discarded every single time!)

HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium will not print docs from computer, but will print a test page.

HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium will not print docs from computer, but will print a test page. I continually get a message that the computer cannot communicate with the printer.   Not only will it not print docs, it will not print web pages using IE 11 or Google Chrome.
I've used Print and Scan Doctor, it always reports there are no issues and prints a test page even though I can't print anything else.
Each time I want to print, I must reboot the computer. After reboot I have one chance to print.   This problem started February 15, 2015.
My operating system is Windows 8.1.   I have unintalled the HP software, rebooted, then reinstalled the software:
OJ8500_A910_1315-1.exe
HP Print and Scan Doctor - HPPSdr.exe
HPSupportSolutionsFramework-11.51.0049.msi
All versions were last downloaded on April 4, 2015.
I have a home wireless network (Ubee DDW366 router). All other devices in the house will print to the 8500A printer without issues: 2 Toshiba laptops, 2 Android phones, and 1FireHD.
The desk top is installed with a Netgear Network card I don't know the model, but I had it tested by a PC Tech to confirm that the card is working.   The card and Windows 8.1 were installed on January 3, 2015.
I have run virus scans and malware scans. Each time they show there are no issues with my desktop. What kind of desktop? Specifically made to my specs from store parts. . . no brand name computer. ASUS Motherboard P6X580 Premium. Now I will probably get hacked!
I am at my wits end. And it is frustrating when I need to make a print of something and the system locks up. I often resort to screen printing to a word document to save in order to reboot. . . .but then I lose all sorts of capabilites when I salvage what I needed. Also this is a time consumer.
This printer has served us well for two years and I have expensive cartridges waiting; another two rounds of refills.
Help?
Addendum: I can scan using HP Printer Assistance. I open the HP Printer assistant, it "retrieves" info from the printer, then I select "scan a document or photo" and the printer responds.   I have no trouble with scanning.

Epson 777i printer will not print

Epson 777i Printer will not print
I am using an imac with the Epson Stylus Color 777i printer,Gutenprint v5.2.3 and also the Epson 580 printer.
Yesterday the 777i stopped printing. It is in the paused mode. I have replaced the ink cartridges and have tried to
perform troubleshooting but, the printer will not respond to any commands. The green light is on, neither of the
other two lights are on.
The 580 printer is working with no problems.
I need some assistance to get the printer back on line if at all possible. I am not too tech smart, but can follow
directions well.

My Office Print Pro 8600 Plus will not print pdf files sent to it from an iPad using ePrint.

My Office Print Pro 8600 Plus will not print pdf files sent to it from an iPad using ePrint. I just get an error message when I go to the HP Eprint centre. It does print the cover e-mail but nothing else. The attachment is not secure as far as I can see. I have tried sending an attachment from my Mac and that worked fine.
This question was solved.

Hello krnkln3.
Are you trying to send the PDF as an attachment in an e-mail sent to the ePrint e-mail address of the printer or are you trying to print using the ePrint app?
Try sending the same PDF document to the printer's ePrint e-mail address and let us know if that works. If this works but using the ePrint app is not working, maybe the ePrint app is not working fine with this PDF document (it could be due to it's size or something else). Remember that you can always use the e-mail ePrint address of the printer to send PDF documents as the processing is happening at the HP servers and not in your iPad as when you try to send it using the ePrint app.

Laser Jet Pro CM1415fnw color will not print from eprint

Laser Jet Pro CM1415fnw color printer will print from laptop but not from email. Signal on printer has strong internet connection and so does computer. I tried to send a pic with my phone but it did not print.

I will need a little more info in order to help out. If you send the printer an ePrint of a text document, will it print that plan document? Also, if the picture that you are sending is less than 100 DPI (dot per inch) the printer will not print that because of the quality. You can send the picture to the computer, open it and the right click on it and look under “properties” and it will give you the DPI information. It is labeled vertical and horizontal resolution. Lastly, what type of phone do you have? What email client are you using to send the picture to the printer?

Hp officejet pro k550 will not print a test page using control keys on the printer.

How do I print a test page to ensure that this printer is still operational?
I have tried all instructions for clearing the printer of possible jams, removed and reinserted the print heads, and cleaned the rollers. When pressing the appropriate keys on the front of the printer, it will not print a test page. and no error lights appear.
The printer has been connected to a different computer and ceased working last summer. The printer would not respond to commands from the computer nor would it respond to keys on the front of the printer itself. I can get the printhead to move using the controls on the front of the printer, however. The printer is not currently connected to any computer and the nearest computer does not have the appropriate drivers installed. Originally the printer was connected to a Dell desktop running Windows XP (sp 3).

HP 6500A Plus will not print black only if any color cartridges are low. It used to. Why not now?

HP 6500A Plus will not print black only if any color cartridges are low. It used to. Why not now? It will print in color if the black is low but not if any color is low. This is very annoying. Printer is using HP cartridges too.

Get used to this with HP printers - its a new feature they have introduced to keep running costs lows - works well. Had two HP printers same happened with both of these. Suggest a different brand - they might not have this special feature
