HP x64 printer--won't take glossy photo paper

This printer will not take glossy photo paper--it simply grinds and message reads "Out of paper". It will print matte photo paper and regular paper, but not glossy photo. I bought HP glossy photo paper and that won't even work.

Hi,
What is the exact paper type?
The printer specifications does not list Glossy Paper as a supported media, any supported media is listed under Paper-handling specifications > Supported photo paper:

What is the exact media type and weight, that may also help identifyig the issue, the exact paper type should be listed on its packaging...

Printing photos from my computer using hp 6520 printer won't pick up photo paper.

I have a new HP 6520. When I try to print photos from my computer, I get an error message that the paper tray is empty. It does not pick up the photo paper and print. Help!!!

1. My paper tray(s) are propertly loaded, I'm not a novice. 2. The bottom tray is LOADED properly. 3. The UPPER PHOTO TRAY is also loaded properly, shiny side down of course, properly filled and pushed forward as far as it can go. (It worked fine an hour ago when I printed a couple of photos). 4. Now no matter what I do, how I specify photo paper size, IT ONLY PRINTS OUT ON REGULAR PAPER FROM THE BOTTOM TRAY (8"X10") ordinary paper!! 5. When I UNLOAD the bottom tray, in an attempt to "fool" the device so that there's is NOTHING BUT photo paper, I get a prompt telling me I must load the paper before it will print the photo! Of course when I reload the bottom tray with the ordinary paper, it still prints out the photo FROM THE BOTTOM TRAY PAPER!! I'm wasting ink and paper and I'm not happy. I was on the phone for more than 2 hours two weeks' ago getting the first NEW printer set up and it was decided by all four techs I spoke to that I indeed needed to have a new device. 6. I received this replacement device just 4 days ago, another couple of hours speaking to India, finally worked ok, even unti earlier this evening but NOW it will NOT use photo paper from the upper tray. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THESE TROUBLESOME HP6520'S? I had a Photosmart 560 for years until it "died" a few weeks' ago and since then, this is my story with this product. You can check with India tech support to find my complete dealings with them vis-a-vis this product.
AND when I tried to sign up for this support 3 times I got refused telling me that the screen name I offered was already taken. Apparently the app was taking my information from when I may have signed up a couple of years' ago when I had an issue with my Photosmart 560.

Which printer is recommended by real users to print on glossy photo paper?

My MG8100 can't seem to grab the glossy photo paper when I am printing pictures. Very frustrating to spend so much on a machine that is for printing photos and the rollers are plastic and won't grab the glossy paper. Thanks for any suggestions.

Thanks for the updated information!
This type of paper is supported with the printer. There are a few things we can check as to why it is not pulling it. First, make sure the glossy paper is being loaded into the rear tray of the printer. It cannot be pulled from the bottom tray. Also, if you load too many sheets, it may not be pulled. To help test the issue, try loading just one sheet and try again.
If all else fails, please run through a few roller cleanings. Check out the link below for step-by-step directions:

If the issue persists, we'll need to do a little more troubleshooting to determine what may be occurring. Please reach us at http://bit.ly/Phone_Support for further assistance.

Photo booth won't take any photos

Photo booth won't take any photos or videos, it opens fine but when I click on the button nothing happens, no error message or nothing. I have updated Mavericks twice to solve the problem, but no joy, I can use Photo booth in the guest user no problem but not as the Administrator, what is it looking for? Is there is a permissions problem?

it's just happened to me too! any chance you've sorted it out? maybe you can let us know how you did it?! no one seems to be responding!

C5180 won't print on 4" x 6" photo paper

I can no longer print on 4 x 6 photo paper from my C5180 (purchased 2007). The only paper choices on the drop down are "letter" and "A4". This happened after my files and software were put onto a new computter. I just reinstalled the C5180 driver from the HP website, but I still can't get back the photo-paper sizes or options. My photos are in Kodak EasyShare and also outside Kodak, as basic "lloose" .JPGS. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hello Newtonian,
GO to control panel and printers (depends on which os you have on how) rightclick the icon of your printer and select printing preferances. Go to the features tab and with paper size select more, here you normally can select the correct size. If note use custom to make your own size.

Colors on glossy photo paper is splotchy. any help would be appreciated. Jan

mx892 -- colors on glossy photo paper is splotchy. any help would be appreciated. Jan

I' my ust grasping at ideas to try and help. Is it possible that the paper is being loaded upside down? I know you said you've used this paper and printer before, (and I am not familiar with that paper) but Canon papers I have used display that behavior if they are loaded upside down. Do you have other paper you can try to see if it works OK on that paper?
I saw above you were looking for updates. If you didn't change your computer operating system you shouldn't need an update, but just in case where were you getting confused?

Glossy Photo paper q1427a vs q1427b

I've been using HP Glossy Photo paper q1427A with fantastic results. Results look just like a glossy photograph. As that is a discontinued product I was sent q1427b HP Glossy Photo paper . Although the paper looks glossy when printing the exact same file, with same ink on same printer on the q1427b paper, the images print with a satin finish instead of shiny glossy.
What happened to REAL glossy photo paper? What is the best substitute for the q1427a paper??
Thanks,
Scott

Thers more trouble with the new paper:
while you can touch the ink on 1427A after the normal drying time (6 min on a 510ps) without damaging the print
the same ink will be still wet and "untouchable" on the new paper

Photosmart 7515 jams using Kirkland (Costco) glossy photo paper

I have used other photo papers in the past including HP. But this time I purchased a package of Kirkland Professional Glossy Inkjet Photo Paper. After starting a print job, the paper starts to feed and then jams. Once it actually printed, but the print was about half off the paper. The other attempts all jammed. I ruined 5 sheets so far with no success. This Kirkland paper does not seem any different from the others used. Is there something wrong with the printer? I don't have a different paper to try at the moment.

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that your HP Photosmart 7515 is jamming when using Kirkland (Costco) glossy photo paper. I am happy to help! It is possible, that this type of paper may not be supported with this printer. In order for me to find out, I will need to know the size and weight of the paper you are using. In the meantime, please try the steps in this paper jam guide. A 'Paper Jam' Error Displays on the HP Photosmart 7510 e-All-in-One Printer Series. Hope this guide helps, and hope to hear from you soon! “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

How to print on the back of photo paper so it will dry.

I need to print on the back of some photos I have. I am using an HP Officejet Pro 8500A using Windows 7. I have tried to print on these photos but the ink will not dry.
The paper I am using is 4x6 glossy everyday photo paper.
What should I change in the settings to get the ink to dry????
This question was solved.

Hi,
most of the Photo Paper will only allow you to print on a single side.
Unless the used Photo Paper is intended for double side printing you will not be able to print on the back of the paper.
There are no different settings for any of the sided, it only depand on the used media.

4630 won't pick up photo paper

Hey, I just bought this printer and it's all set up. I'm just having a problem getting it to recognize that I've loaded the photo tray with paper. When it attempts to pull in a piece it fails and tells me to pull out the tray and adjust the guides and select ok. There are only so many ways to do this and nothing seems to be working. For the record I'm using 4x6 glossy HP photo paper Premium Plus. Thanks, Kat

Hi,
I've included a link here to the hardware setup guide which includes details on how to load the paper. The paper should be loaded glossy side down.
I'm not familar with your printer but my own requires the photo paper to be pushed in quite far before the rollers can pick it up. When you pull out the tray, you might need to push the paper a little further forward.

Printing on 4" by 6" photo paper

I have no trouble in printing my photos on A4 paper, using hp psc1350 printer. However, 4' by 6' prints capture only part of the image. I set the printer to 'Fit to page' and 'Photo' paper type. I set the paper size under the custom part (10 by 15 centimetres) in Page Set Up. In Print mode, I set the size to '4 by6'. Under the Advanced tab, I change the paper quality to that of photo paper. but still, I get partial prints only. Surely I have missed a simple step somewhere?

You have cropped it to 4x6 in iPhoto before trying to print, correct? With my two printers I use the borderless 4x6 setting in Page Setup and in the iPhoto print window I select the specific printer again and then Standard Prints, 4x6 and click on the 1 photo per page checkbox.

Photo Printing on 4 x 6 Photo Paper Using HP D4360

I've suddenly started having problems printing 4 x 6 borderless photos on HP Advanced Photo Paper. The print quality is good, but the image is shifted to the left (when printing in landscape), or the paper isn't fed far enough into the printer before printing starts) and so a white border approximately 2/8" - 3/8" wide remains on the right side of the paper after printing finishes. Ink streaks are visible on the underside of the leading edge of the paper (which also seems to indicate that the printing is starting before the paper gets to the starting position.

Printing only on half 4x6 photo paper

My printer is only printing on half the photo paper 4x6. I have changed the preference settings on my hp printer to photo paper the paper size but it's just printing the picture small and on the edge leaving a wide blank space. If I trimmed the photo down it would be too small. Any ideas why this is happening.

i have same on photosmart 5510 wireless notebook windows 7 added a small length of blank paper to entry of photopaper and it works but why does this happen
