HP Photosmart 7760 printing last part of page issues in Vista (64bit)

Well, I've been reading up on the same issue ith other printers but never saw this model come up and I tried some of the suggested fixes for those other models and none seem to have worked.
I use a graphic software that actually shows me the printing margins and the right side margin in ladnscape or the bottom margin in potrait is about 3/4in which cuts of parts of my graphic being printed.
Now I can use the borderless printing option and it will work fine but the only problem with that is that it automatically sets the paper to photo paper and the quailty to best and I don't want that. Now regardless of me setting the print mode to fast draft(which is what i want) and the paper to general everyday use, the printer still prints in best quality which means it uses up more ink than I want.
Now I am not sure why HP has not fixed this problem which could probably be easily fixed if we were allowed to set our own margins just as we are allowed to with the left and top margins. In Windows XP Pro...I was allowed to change the margins on each side of the paper but in Windows Vista I am only allowed to change the top and left margins.
What gives HP...don't you want to take care of your loyal customers? When I went to check for upgrades and downloads for my model printer, it said that HP was not gonna make any software for Vista when it came to my particular model.
This is sad to hear and this is the reason why I bought my daughter a Sony Vaio laptop instead of an HP laptop. My loyalty can only go as far as you're willing to show me it's worth continuing to be loyal to you. Unlike the rich folk in America, I can't be spending money on newer products when the product I have still works like new other than this certain defect that is happening with this certain printing problem.
My motto is simple....either the company I buy from helps me fix the problem with their product or I no longer deal with that company. It's not like we as Americans don't have enough choices to pick from.
Anyhow, I hope someone can really find a fix for this problem...it looks like it's been going on a while and it seems like HP is trying to tell us in so many words that we got screwed and that's all there is to it. [text removed]

Hp photosmart 6510 printing and photocopying blank pages even after putting in new ink cardridges

Hi there, can anyone help?
My photosmart 6510 has recently started printing and photocopying blank pages. The ink cardridges were low and I have replaced them with new ones. I have cleaned the printer head and the test comes out in colour.
I have no idea what to do other than buy a new one !
Any advice appreciated.

Hi @TG13,
I'd like to help. Please begin with the steps in the following document; Printer Prints a Blank Page or Does Not Print Black or Color Ink for the HP Deskjet Ink Advantage an... < this applies to the 6510, and 6515 too.
If you complete, or have already completed all of the steps in the document above and the issue continues, my own personal recommendation, not one of HPs, is to use the solution offered in the following video. I only suggest doing this if the printer is out of warranty; How to fix a HP Printer, not printing black ink and missing colours
Based on the comments, it looks like this will help

I tried most of the suggestions in this thread, but stopped short of disassembling the print head. Nothing worked until I saw the video referenced in Sunshyn2005's message. That did work, but not on my first try. For the second attempt, I left the wet paper towels in place for a couple of hours to really soak the print heads. That did the trick.
So, thank you Sunshyn2005, for pointing me to the solution. - Source
Although the printer might be out of warranty, if the issue persists, HP may be able to offer you something. Maybe they can offer you a discount on an alternate model. If you are in Canada or US call 800 474 6836, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.

HP photosmart 7760 prints green

Hi, My printer will print images green, but only on one of my computer. My little notebook will print just fine but my desktop prints them out in green. Does anyone know what that would be caused by and how to fix it. I have uninstalled and reinstalled with no change. I don't get it at all. Confused. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi lonnienabigail and jbker,
You can try following some steps below.
HP Photosmart 245, 7755, 7760, and 7960 printers
Make sure plain paper is loaded in the In Tray. For the Photosmart 245, the paper should be loaded face up.
Press the Menu button.
Press the Down Arrow until the Tools is highlighted.
Press the OK button.
Press the Down Arrow until Clean Cartridges is highlighted.
Press OK .
Press OK again to print a level one clean cartridge test.
Once the level one clean cartridge test page has printed, examine the printed page. If the print is not clear and/or there are lines in the color bars, continue to Step 9. If the print quality is acceptable and there are no flaws with the color bar, press the Down Arrow once then press OK .
Press OK to print the second level clean cartridge page. Yes is selected by default
Once the second level clean cartridges test page has printed, examine the printed page. If the print is not clear and/or there are lines in the color bars, continue to
If the print quality is acceptable and there are no flaws with the color bar, press the Down Arrow once then press OK .
Yes is selected by default, press OK to print the third level clean cartridge page.
Once the third level clean cartridges test page has printed examine the page. The printer will not ask you to print another clean cartridge test page. If the problem persists contact HP Support.
Hope this works for you!

Photosmart 7150 - Prints left side of page only

I have used my Photosmart 7150 for years. All of a sudden, prior to printing I get a "PAPER SIZE MISMATCH" message telling me to pull the photo slider out. The photo slider is all the way out. I press the "RESUME" button, and only the left side of the page prints. Does anyone know how to correct this?

There may be more than one issue here. The photo tray issue may contribute to both issues. Try this link:

Print Preview of particular page issue in SAP script

Hi all,
Kindly help me to resolve the following issue in SAPscript.
I have a particular business requirement to preview a particular page in 'n' pages of a SAPscript. After executing the sapscript calling program, the print window appears, in which i can choose particular page in the Page Selection Field.
The problem is that the preview shows some other page rather than the appropriate page. Please help me to resolve the issue.
Awaiting for your replies,
Thanks and Best Regards,
Jana

You need to call NEW-PAGE command in the sapscript when the user select a page in page selection.
Try this:
create the following text element in the sapscript in any window, preferibly MAIN window
/E PBREAK
/: NEW-PAGE &user_selected_page&
In the Print program: OPEN_FORM returns a parameter called RESULT.
case result-tdpageslct.
when '2'.
user_selected_page = <second page name in the sapscript>
when '3'.
user_selected_page = <third page name in the sapscript>
when others.
clear user_selected_page.
endcase.
if not user_selected_page is initial.
call function WRITE_FORM and call above created text element
endif.
If the pages you are trying to display does not have main window, make sure next page in the page definition is not the same page in the sapscript.
Regards

Printing from iMac G4 to HP Photosmart 7760 – Colors are heavy on pink side

Hello~
We have an iMac G4 Flat Panel using OS 10.3.9 and are connected to the HP Photosmart 7760 Printer.
When we print directly from our camera card, the printer prints fine. True colors.
When we print using any software application, (ie Photoshop, iPhoto) the printer prints extremely heavy on the pink side. We have installed new cartridges, have cleaned and calibrated the printer, have unplugged and restarted the printer and still to no avail we have pink tinted photographs.
Could someone help please?
Thank You!

It seemed to be nothing involving our printer. A recalibration of our computer display did the trick.

Printing cards and labels on Photosmart C4580 printer

I couldn't find my particular problem using the search so I'm hoping for some answers here. I have a Photosmart C4580 printer connected to a Toshiba laptop running Vista with all the current updates. My problem is that I can't seem to get it to print on business card stock or addrress label stock. Here's the issue:
I use Word to create business cards to print onto business card stock. The instructions that came with the card stock say to do a test page on regular paper first to verify placement, which I do - everything looks perfect so I put a page of card stock in the feeder. The printer grabs the page and prints with the image offset towards the top of the page by about 1/4" so that the top of the card is above the edge of the cards. As the cards are repeated down the page, it shifts down slightly so that by the time it gets to the bottom of the page it's almost on the card, but still overlaps the top edge slightly. Printing onto regular paper works perfectly every time.
A similar thing happens printing address labels - again using Word to create the labels for either Avery 5267 or Avery 8161 label stock. On regular paper everything looks perfect, but feed a sheet of label stock in and the text is offest toward the top of the page. The last time I needed labels I was able to get it to print properly by printing one label at a time, then refeeding the page and printing the next one, then repeating until each label on the page was printed. When you're printing several pages of labels that takes a lot of time!
Is there something I need to do to get this printer to print cards and labels?

HP Photosmart 7760

I just recently posted a question pertaining to my HP Photosmart 7760 printer not printing from my computer. This is the same computer that the printer is connected to and always printed. I just tried printing a test page when trouble shooting the printer, which the printer did print out fine. But, I cannot print anything else therefore not sure what settings might have been changed, etc. I spoke two times yesterday with HP Tech Support and they kept telling me it was a hardware problem, that the printer needs to be replaced; it is broken. Then they said it was an application problem but did not fix or resolve it, unfortunately. The printer is not broken as it did print out the test page therefore it is working. I just can't figure out why it won't print anything else and would appreciate any help so as to resolve this problem (it was working up until yesterday and I did not make any changes to the computer). Thank you.

Hi @godlesv
This document contains a list of HP printers that are supported in OS X v10.10 Yosemite.
Review the list to determine if your printer is supported in Yosemite. If your printer is supported in Yosemite, go to the HP drivers webpage to see if a full feature driver is available. If a full feature driver is not available, you can use the driver from Apple Software Update (ASU) to print; HP Printers Supported in OS X v10.10 Yosemite.
To save you from searching the list of printers, your printer is listed, it will work, but I recommend you take a look at the link above and scroll to the bottom. You will likely find the Frequently asked questions section very helpful
I hope this resolves your inquiry.

"Error" shows up in the HP photosmart 7760 status line

I have a MacBook Pro and I'm running Mac OS 10.6.4. My printer was operating fine yesterday. Today for some idiotic reason, I thought that I should install the old original software that came with the 5 year old photosmart 7760 printer. Since, I can't print. Every effort results in the same "Error" message coming up in the print utility Status box. I've tried diagnostics recommended on the HP page. No difference. Any ideas?
Thanks, Rob

Try downloading the XP driver file from this link. If that works then your browser settings are probably causing ftp:// transfers to fail. The link above replaces the ftp:// link with the same address at an http:// link. This allows download of files that might otherwise be blocked.

Photosmart B8350 Prints page bottom as black block

My Photosmart B8350 printer sometimes prints what should be blank space at page bottom as a large black block.
This mostly occurs on the last page of a set, or the bottom of a single page, but have had intermediate pages (eg. pages 2 & 4 of 5) that contain text also filled at the bottom as a black block.
I am printing in the FAST DRAFT MODE, manual duplexing, black/grey cartridge only so as to conserve ink when print when the print color or quality is NOT an issue. Only needing something readable.
It would seem that I am defeating the aim of conserving ink if I'm going to get nearly half a page printing as a black block.
Has anyone else encountered this problem of blank space printing as a black block and what solution(s) did you use?
Thank

HP Deskjet 5568 WiFi Printer - Last page gets stuck while printing

I bought a HP Deskjet 5568 two days ago. I have printed nearly 50 pages already.
I am having a problem while printing "manually" on both sides. It prints the odd pages first from back to front. While printing the last page (the first page of the document), the printer gets stuck. The page is halfway in and the printer just stays there. If I pull out the page, the 'orange' resume light blinks; if I press it, the printing restarts.
The problem is that after it gets stuck, the printer doesn't print anything. I have to delete the print job and now I have to print the other 'even' pages myself.
Please help me. Is the paper getting stuck part of the printing process (stupid question)? I don't actually think it's getting "stuck," I think the printer doesn't allow the page to come out for some reason as the page is actually fully printed (the data is all there).
I have also noticed that this only happens while printing in "manual" two-sided mode.
Also, I can't edit the printing shortcuts in the printer control panel. If I change the paper size to A4, the next time I open the control panel, it is once again set to Letter. Why is this?

Hi I_am_Ann,
I understand you are having an issue printing from the computer on your HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 2515 All-in-One Printer.
I do need some other information to assist you.
The current OS installed?
Did you install the printer on your computer?
This document should help take a look at the printer to make sure all is ok.
