HP Laserjet 2300n will only print to tray 1

we have a laserjet 2300n and it suddenly will not print to any other tray except tray 1.   Tray 2 and Tray 3 have paper and Tray 1 is closed.   The paper preference is that only legal size paper is used in Tray1 and the remaining trays use letter size.

Mowaffaq, you may want to determine whether you are making those changes in the master printing preferences (versus the adjusting the session printing preferences from within your application).
Click "Start", click "Printers and Faxes" (or "Devices and Printers"), right-click your printer, and select "Printing Preferences". On the "Paper/Quality" tab, you should be able to specify A4 as your default paper for all future print jobs.
Hope that helps.

  • Laserjet 2100 will only print one page at a time.

    I recently acquired a second hand Laserjet 2100 Series. Installation was fine but it will only print one page at a time, I have to keep pressing the 'Go' button, which is very frustrating. The manual tells me that it is in 'Manual' mode but not how to change it. Can anyone help, please? O/S Windows 7. Thank you.

    This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

  • HP LaserJet P1102w will only print wirelessly if I turn the printer off and on again

    I have 2 Laserjet P1102w that work fine printing through USB.  However, I was hoping this printer could become the standard wireless printer for individual users in the office.  I have setup 2 different printers wirelessly with their own static, reserved IP addresses and they are connected to our wireless access point (WPA).  We have  all laptops that are connected to the network via the same access point as well as through hard wired ethernet.  In all cases, they are on the same subnet.
    Once I connect any laptop to one of these printers wirelessly through either the "smart install" client or the latest regular installation exe off of HP's site, it will print fine initially.  However, whenever I undock the laptop or even just wait a few hours, the connection will be lost and I cannot print.  The queue just says "Error - Printing" when I print sometihng.  No errors in the logs.  The connection will come back if I turn off the printer and turn it back on.  This is very annoying and will probably not be acceptable to the users.
    So I wanted to do more testing and connected both printers to my laptop wirelessly and made sure they could print successfully.  I opened 2 command windows and ran a ping -t on each IP address to see at what point the connection dies.  The ping will reply until I undock and go from hard wired / wireless to just wireless.. then it will say "Destination unreachable" and I can't even access the web interface. Even if I redock to hard wired / wireless, I still can't print unless I restart the printer.
    This happens on 2 different laptops with 2 different p1102w printers.  Any clue as to what's going on here and how I can fix it?
    Edit:
    If I have both wireless and nic enabled, once I undock the laptop, the ping -t changes from replying to the ip of the printer, to replying to the address of the wireless adapter with "Destination host unreachable".
    For example:
    IP of printer: 192.168.2.95
    IP of wireless adapter on laptop: 192.168.2.25
    ping 192.168.5.95
    Reply from 192.168.2.95

    *undock"
    Reply from 192.168.2.25 Destination Host Unreachable
    Reply from 192.168.2.25 Destination Host Unreachable
    This does not happen if I disabled the nic and run only off the wireless card.  So the workarounds are to either turn the printer off and back on if I undock every time, or disabled the nic.
    At this point, I just want to understand why it is like this?

  • HP 4000 Only prints to tray 1

    I have a fairly old HP 4000 but has been very faithful over the years.  Recently I've encountered an issue that no matter what I do it will only print to Tray 1 forcing me to manually feed it paper.
    I've went through the menu's and all looks correct.  I've even done restore defaults with no luck.
    Reguardless of the computer I'm printing from I get the same results.  Even when printing if I tell it Tray 2 or Tray 3 it still goes to Tray 1.
    Any advice would be appreciated.

    I is most likely a setting in the printer program. Have you checked to see if the settings are the same on all of the machines? If you have and all the settings are the same and your still getting the same issue I would go to Xerox for further support.
    But I would check every printer settings in both the program and windows printer settings first.

  • LaserJet 5000 will not print more than one copy at a time.

    We have recently moved our office.  A LaserJet 5000 which is used as an office printer is shared through one of the computers on the network in the exact same way it was more we moved.  But since the move it will not print multiple copies of the same document no matter how many copies the software tells the printer to print it will only print one copy then it stops.  Before the moved it worked fine.  If the software program such as Word told it to print 100 copies it printed 100 copies now one is the limit.   So if you want to printmore than one you have to hit print that many times.  It has 172 MB RAM.  Does anyone have any ideas of what might have happened????

    I have the same issue with a photosmart 2410xi. Did you ever get yours figured out?

  • Designjet T520 will only print one page.

    Hi, Brand new Windows 8 HP PC printing to a Designjet T520, will only print one page.I have met this problem on laserjets in the past and resolved it by enabling/disabling mopier mode.However none of the drivers I have tried (many) for the Designjet T520 have the option to turn on or off Mopier Mode. After many hours spent troubleshooting, I formatted and installed the Windows 8 machine again from scratch.Even with this brand new install on a bran new PC, I still cannot print multiple copies to the designjet. In the same office, 3 other Windows 8 machines are printing fine to the same plotter and can print mutliple copies. The driver versions are the same on all machines. Hope someone can help.Thanks.

    This forum is focused on consumer level products.  For the Designjet you may have better results posting in the HP DesignJet forum here, that is where the DesignJet experts can be found.

  • Will only print one page of four page document

    I have an HP LaserJet M1212nf and it will only print the first page of a four page document.  I tried to check the preview settings and inserted "pages 1 to 4" and print "all", but neither works.  What to do?

    Hi @5867 ,
    I see that you are experiencing issues printing a multiple page document. I will certainly do my best to help you.
    From the application your printing from, go to File, Print, Number of copies select 2. Uncheck Collate. You can now change the number of copies. Collate should now stay unchecked.
    Try printing the multiple page document again.
    You might have to disable all the startup items, to see if there is another program causing this issue.
    How to use MSCONFIG. Click on the Startup tab and disable all.
    Test the printer.
    Then go back in and enable all from the Startup tab.
    Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor if you are still having issues. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
    What applications have you tried?
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet)
    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
    What operating system are you using? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
    Please provide in detail the results if you are still having issues.
    Have a great day!

  • Appleworks will only print one page at a time, please help!

    hi there ~
    no matter how many times I ask the printer to print ALL pages, it will only print one at a time, so I have to manually print page 18, 17, etc....
    Could this be because the pages are arranged left to right? that would seem strange.
    also, I cannot find a function to re-arrange the pages. for example, i want to re-organize to make page 18 at the front as page 1. I just don't get it though I've searched the program.
    THANKS SO MUCH!

    Hi td,
    Welcome to AppleDiscussions and the AppleWorks forum.
    "no matter how many times I ask the printer to print ALL pages, it will only print one at a time, so I have to manually print page 18, 17, etc...."
    My memory says the same as Yvan's.
    If the printer dialogue has a checkbox labeled "Collate", make sure the box is checked, even if you are printing a single copy. If memory serves, this suggestion was made in connection with HP printers.
    A second possible solution is to specify the page range when printing this document (or others that exhibit this problem). (eg. for a 25 page document specify printing From page 1 To page 25.) You might try specifying p. 1 to p. 99 for any document under 100 pages, although I don't know what effect this would have for a 5 page doc.
    regards,
    Barry

  • My printer is Hp printer 932C it will only print in black and white not color

    my printer is Hp printer 932C it will only print in black and white not color I got a new color cartage nothing still only printing in back and whit what can i do

    There are a few things to check:
    Make sure the blue tape has been removed from the nozzle plate.
    Print a diagnostic page as shown in method 4 here.  Does this page print color?  If so the issue may be your driver settings.  Check for a "Print in grayscale" setting and uncheck this box.

  • Since updating to the new version the work web page that i use will only print 2 pages even if there are more. I can not get it to print all the pages in the document.

    for instance....I have a documents that has 6 pages, I can scroll down and see all the pages but when i hit the print button it will only print 2 pages. I tried to change it in the setting part but there is no feature that allows you to change it.

    For many years, Firefox has problems printing when some style rules are used. However, I am not aware of any changes for the worse in Fx4 (at least, until now I wasn't aware of any).
    A couple of thoughts:
    (1) Is it possible you were using an add-on in Fx3.6 that fixed this problem, but the add-on was disabled during the upgrade because it wasn't compatible? (Sometimes that can be fixed with a little hack.)
    (2) Are there any obvious settings differences that could be affecting printing, such as fonts, margins, or shrink-to-fit/percentage?
    (3) Does the workaround of selecting the entire page (Ctrl+a) and then choosing Selection under Print range in the Print dialog work? Unfortunately, this can slice through lines and images, but it often works around problems with style rules.
    In the interest of saving paper, it often is useful to experiment with a PDF printer driver. If you don't have pdfFactory, you can install a trial version for testing: it lets you view the results without first having to save the file. (If you save with the trial version, there is a footer to that effect.)
    (4) Is it an HTML5 problem? You can toggle the HTML5 parser off, but this is a global setting, not site-specific. If you are familiar with about:config, filter on html5 and double click '''html5.parser.enable''' to toggle its value from true to false. This helps for some sites, but has no effect on others.

  • PRINTING: Keynote will only print to a certain page # then stops

    Just to get this out of the way: iWork '08/Keynote 4.0, Mac OS 10.4.10 and everything has been updated. I also looked for other strings relating but could not find any.
    I have a few reports created in Keynote that will only print to a certain page. Each report prints the same page every time, but the page # differs for each report. For instance, one report will print to page 32 out of 64, another to 42 out of 70, etc...
    Further, if I select the pages that were missing, they will not print at all.
    I have tried different printers, networks and printers. Other programs (Word/Excel) will print in total.
    Has anyone heard of this problem/have any advice?
    Much thanks,
    Matt
