HP photosmart 7520 all in one

Purchased new HP 7520 printer and am using an iMac with OS x Maverick system. When attempting to print from the iMac, the printer selects the main tray instead of the photo tray. Photo tray is selected as default in settings on the iMac, as well as on the printer. I've attempted to print from the iPhoto app as well as the Lightroom app. Neither works.
The photo tray WILL select when printing from my iPhone, however. Is there a driver error or something that needs corrected? I see that this seems to be an ongoing problem from viewing the forums. I hope there is a solution. Otherwise it gets returned tomorrow. Please help.

Welcome to the HP Forums ADowns,
I read your post which indicates that you are unable to print to the photo tray on Maverick. But the Iphone prints to the photo tray fine. I can help you with this.
Are you using the Full Feature download drivers from HP?
HP Photosmart 7520 e-All-in-One Printer Full Feature Software and Drivers - OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
Check the driver name that is installed for the printer. The Airprint driver might be installed instead of the Printer's driver. (usually defaults to Airprint)
Click the Apple menu and then click System Preferences. Click Printers & Scanners, highlight the printer name on the left side and on the right side of the screen should show the name.
If the printer name shows Airprint then that is the Apple drivers, delete it and add the printer name back in from the list. Click the - sign to delete the driver and then click the + sign to add the driver, might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name to add it in.
If you are still having issue then please try the following steps:
Repair the Disk Permissions on the Mac:
Close all applications.
On the Apple menu bar, click Go, click Applications and then click Utilities.
Double-click Disk Utility.
Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left.
Click Verify and then Repair Disk Permissions.
Restart the computer.
Reset the Printing System:
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
Click the Apple icon ( ), and then click System Preferences.
Click Printers & Scanners.
Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left white side panel, then click Reset printing system.
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type the correct Name and Password.
Click OK to reset the printing system.
Then click the + sign, then select the printer from the list and click on the Add button.
(make sure it shows the printer name beside Use, not the Airprint driver)
Try printing again from the photo tray again.
If you need further assistance, let me know.
Have a wonderful day!
Thank You.

Installing HP Photosmart 7520 all in one printer software

My new HP Photosmart 7520 will not install on my Dell PC. I have the 32-bit Windows Vista OS. When installation begins I immediately get the error message: "Key not valid for use in specified state". I've tried installing the CD and the software from HP on-line, all several different ways. I 've used the troubleshooting download from HP but both methods do not solve the installation problem. I've temporarily disabled the firewall. I've done disk clean-up and defragmenting. I've restarted the PC more than a dozen times during my efforts. Even Microsoft Windows can't install all the software from updates - only the fax portion. If I can get past the point where the error message occurs I think the software will install.
I hesitate to try the Geek Squad. My experience with them is that most of the geeks aren't competent and it's a crap shoot getting assigned one that is. They will be my last resort.
Has anyone had this problem? Does anyone have a solution?

Hey @jimlg ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're unable to install the printer drivers for your Photosmart 7520 printer.
The error you have listed is a Windows error and not attributed to the printer software. You can confirm this with the fact the error occurs when trying to install from Windows update bypassing our installer.
You may want to try following the suggestion in this thread made by @Gemini02 which seems to help resolve the issue for some users experiencing the same problem: Re: key not valid for use in specified state.
Let me know if that helps.

HP Photosmart 7520 All in one Error report

After installing a brand new HP 564 black ink cartrigde, every attempt to print something since installing it, I keep getting a Printer failure report on the printer screen : There is a problem with the printer or ink system. Turn printer off, then on. If problem persist, contact HP. Then the report on my compuetr under HP Photosmart 7520 series (Network) reads: (next to red circle w/white x ) Missing or Failed Printhead
Cyan/Magenta/Yellow/Black/PhotoBlack
The printethead appears to be missing, not detected, incorrectly installed, or incompatible
I tried turning it off and on several times. Took cartridge out and put it back in. Searched cartridge well to see if there was anything blocking it. tried troubleshooting it through the Printer itself and from the HP help. tried contacting them but the number given is for a free Carribean cruise..So not very professional. Like I said , after installing a brand new HP 564 black ink cartridge, this started. i didn't get a chance to print anything. Can I get help with this please?

Hello Dumbazz77,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with the printer giving the error " The print-head appears to be missing, not detected, incorrectly installed, or incompatible".
I do have a few suggestions that we can try in the attempt to troubleshoot this issue.
First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
I have also located a document that deals with 'Problem with Printhead,' 'Printer Failure,' 'Ink System Failure,' or a '0x...' or a 'C2...' Error M...".
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
Thanks for your time.

HP Photosmart 7520 all in one showing Air Print Macbook Pro Maverick 10.9.4

At one point I did not have Air Print showing beside printer in system preferences. Printer and scanning is working fine, but I was told by someone on this message board that Air Print should not show. How do I remove Air Print. I have a Macbook Pro Maverick 10.9.4. HP Scan version 4.1.1. I did an update earlier this year and the Air Print was not there. Did not see board for Mac to choose for issue. Thanks for your help.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Good morning, happy Friday @ladybugs48
I understand you are seeing AirPrint next to your printer, meaning you are currently using the AirPrint driver and not the HP driver. I can help you change this. Please complete the steps below;
Reset Printing System
Click the Apple icon (   ), and then click System Preferences.
In the Hardware section, click Print & Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan dialog box opens.
Right-click (or  Ctrl  +click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system…
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type the correct Name and Password.
Click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows no printer selected
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
When you add the printer, to ensure you are using the HP driver, not the AirPrint driver use the steps below;
Select Add Other Printer or Scanner
Select the printer you are adding and next to 'Use' you can select the printer driver
Please let me know if this resolves the issue. Thanks.

I am unable to print. HP Photosmart 3210xi All in One

I am unable to print on my HP Photosmart 3210xi All in One. I installed some of HP's downloads this morning, and now I can't print.

Hi ronalds173,
I see that you are having some login issues with the Photosmart 7520 and have been locked out as result. I believe I know the area you are trying to access, but to make sure, are you taking the I.P address that is assigned to the printer and entering that into the address bar in your web browser?
If so, this login would not be the SSID & password for your router, unless you made it that. This password can be reset by restoring the network defaults on the printer.
To do that, touch Wrench icon in right upper corner and then Wireless Menu. Touch Restore Network Defaults and then confirm. Once restored, you will need to run the Wireless Setup Wizard on the printer.
Try accessing the page again. Let me know if this resolved your issue.

7520 All In One not scanning from computer

I have a 7520 all in one printer. I can scan from the printer to my computer with no problems, I can print from my computer with no problems. I have always been able to control scanning from my computer when I put a picture on the printer without any issues. The HP Photosmart icon on my desktop is there but I cannot open it. I've tried opening it from the Start Menu and I still can't open it. Now I've tried going to the HP Solutions Center and when I click on that it says it cannot run b/c installation is not complete. (I've had this printer for a almost a year and this just happened out of the blue.)
I uninstalled the printer then reinstalled it again. I unplugged my printer and my wireless router and retstarted both, all to no avail. My software is updated and I've run Scan Doctor and everything is in working order.
I simply cannot open HP Photosmart from my computer.

Hi @FinnGirl47,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that you cannot scan from the computer with your HP Photosmart 7520, and I am happy to help!
For further assistance, I will need to know: If you are using a Windows or Mac Operating System, and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos, also if the printer is able to make copies.
In the meantime, please try going through this scanning guide, A 'No Computer Detected' or 'Connection Error' Message Displays during Scanning.
Thank you for posting!

Unable to access HP Photosmart 7520e All-in-One Embedded Web Service

My HP Photosmart 7520e all-in-one is already connected wirelessly, but when I try to access it on the web, by typing in the ip address, it keeps asking for a user name and password. I assumed it is the SSID and Network Key for my wireless router, but it doesn't work when I enter it. There are no directions on how to set this up, find out this info, change it or anything. And, after 3 unsuccessful attempts I am locked out. This is assinine. I need help but can't find an answer anywhere regarding this issue!

Photosmart Premium All in One Blue screen error B882B1C4

I have recently purchased a Photosmart Premium All in One C309G machine which is connected via a USB cable to the PC. When I try to use it wirelessly it produces a blue screen with an error message B882B1C4 as soon as I switch on the BT hub. HP haven't been able to sort out the problem as I am now in receipt of the 4th replacement . Can anyone suggest a solution please? I have a BT1800HG wireless hub connected with an ethernet cable to my HP PC.

This is posted in your separate thread:
Hey there. I would try a power reset to fix the issue.
Press the Power button ( ) to turn off the product.
NOTE:The product might not turn off after pressing the Power button. Continue to the next step regardless.
Disconnect the power cord from the back of the product.
Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet, and then wait 30 seconds.
Connect the power cord to the electrical outlet.
Connect the power cord to the back of the product.
Press the Power button ( ) to turn on the product.
If this does not solve the issue then the printer will most likely need to be serviced.Hope this helps!

HP Photosmart e-All-in-One - B110a : How can I deactivate wireless?

Hi, everyone.
I just bought HP Photosmart e-All-in-One - B110 and after the installation (which went OK), while trying to get acquainted with the printer and the rest of the functions, I pushed the Wireless button out of curiosity.
Now, every time I switch on B110, the Wireless blue light keeps blinking. Does that mean that it's working?
I do NOT want to activate wireless printing (at least for the time being). I want it deactivated permanently. Is there a way to do this?
Many thanks in advance.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

The blinking blue light means it's looking for a network to connect to. It won't connect to a network if you haven't put any info in the wireless setup. I believe there's an option to turn off the wireless radio in the settings somewhere.

Hp - photosmart e-all-in-one wireless printer cn731a- nothing prints??

HP - Photosmart e-All-in-One Wireless Printer (CN731A)
Went through setup on Windows 7 64-bit, printed the test photo, came out great. Thought everything was good to go. Later, when trying to print a document, it wouldn't print. Computer popped up a message saying "Successfully printed" but when I went to the printer, there was nothing there. I tried running a wireless network test on the printer's screen, and once that page printed with the results, immediately after that, the document I was trying to get finally printed. This was an early Christmas gift for my parents, & my mom just informed me that she tried to print again today, but nothing happened on the printer. I am out of town now and am not able to troubleshoot on my own on the printer like I did a couple days ago so came here for advice.. Any idea what the issue might be? Did I maybe miss a step after doing the test print of the photo? Any ideas would be appreciated!

Hello,
Try the below steps ..
While the printer is ON, Unplug the power cord from back of the printer.
Disconnect all the cables that are connected to the printer.
Wait for 30 seconds.
Plug in only the Power Cord. ( Printer would Power on ).
Try making a standalone Color copy of a document . If it fails to print a copy, then it could either be an issue with the Ink cartridges or the Printer .

How do I add my HP Photosmart e-ALL-IN-ONE D110 series printer to my Android Tablet?

Hi,
Given your ptinter supports print from Android, you need an app called HP ePrint. Please use Google Store to install it:

Problem with installing Solution Center for a HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer - C309g

Hi folks,
I've searched many threads and found some directions to remedy this, tried them and have had no luck.
I'm running Windows 7. All updates are current. When I bought the printer I installed the software (on Windows 7 OS) from the disc and everything was fine. Fast forward a year and Solution Center stopped working.
Uninstalled all HP software to reinstall. I was only able to reinstall HP Update. I was able to load the basic drivers for print and scan, but not the entire software suite including Solution Center. The installation stops abruptly after "installing updates".
I even downloaded and tried "PS_AIO_06_C309g-m_USW_Full_Win_enu_140_175" and got the same result as the original installation disc.
What can I do with my printer (HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer - C309g)???
Thanks,
Alex

Since I installed Mountain Lion operating system, I cannot print. I have a HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-one printer. I get a message when I try to update the software "Server not available The software update service is currently not available."

After installing Mountain Lion, my printer doesn't work. I know it is connected as it shows up, The message is:
"The printer software was installed incorrectly. Please reinstall the software for this printer or conact the anufacturer for assistance."
I used the disk that came with the printer as when I go to the HP site, it tells me that Apple has the drivers needed. I unistalled the printer and reistalled. Previously, I just went to the HP website an everything worked fine for drivers, program, etc. I never had to use the CD that came with the printer. My printer is: HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-one, it is wireless, but I even took the computer and plugged it into the printer to make sure that everything was connected. Can someone please help me to get this working,
Thank you,

Hey Spider! First off welcome to the forum.
I would recommend removing all the ink cartridges, unplugging the USB cable from the computer that connects to the printer, and then shutting the printer off completely by removing the power cord. Then restart your computer. Turn the printer back on but leave it disconnected from the computer. After it has finished its power on cycle go ahead and insert the ink cartridges back into the printer and be sure to seat them properly.
After you have all the cartridges back in the printer properly then connect it to the computer. See if this resolves the issue. If not post back with any findings.
Thanks,
SeanS
