I am trying to print on filofax paper but wont print on HP deskjet 3070A

The guides only allow paper to be placed in the middle of paper selection, and only half of the printing comes out, half of the page is blank.   Its also very difficult to retrieve the shorter paper because the aperture where the paper is inserted is very narrow.   The pages for the filofax have to be turned over and printed on both sides.

Hi Nontech,
I am not sure I understand exactly what you are doing; I will try and help.  I am a user, not an HP tech.
The manual suggests that you can adjust the side guides in the printer to accomodate paper sizes.  That said, there is nothing to be done about the tiny opening - the paper is supposed to be ejected when the print is completed.
The thickness of the paper used is very important.  I have discovered this the hard way myself.  Your printer won't have a selection for filofax paper; it should have a selection for something that perhaps you can pick that is as close to the same thickness as is possible.
Deskjet 3070A B611 User Guide
See the section in the manual on "Recommended Papers for Printing" for a general description.
Using your printing Preferences for your printer, select the paper according to what is closest to the thickness of your "filofax" paper.  (EXAMPLE:  Control Panel > icon view > Devices and Printers > highlight your printer > right-click > Preferences > Paper > Media)
If you can more closely match the actual thickness of the paper being printed, you might get a print of the whole sheet without it stopping half-way through the process:  The completed print might then feed all the way out of the printer as it should.
Good Luck!
Kind Regards,

    Does it print correctly on plain paper?
    What do you do differently to print on Photo Paper than to print on plain paper?
    iPhoto has no idea of what paper is being printed - that is totally a function of the printer and the print driver supplied with the printer - you need to look at the printer specific options and your printer manual and/or support forums

    You are technically way ahead of me, so I can't argue with what you did.
    How about an even simpler WiFi network consisting of only the AirPort connected by an Ethernet cable to the printer?  If the iPad still can't find the printer when connected to this network, then something is broken!
    (Also try a different Ethernet cable.)

  • When I print a Word document to a shared printer, print preview looks fine but the printed page has too much blank space at the top and doesn't print the bottom few lines.

    When I print a Word for Mac document to a shared printer (that is connected to my iMac) from my Macbook Pro, print preview looks fine but the printed page has too much blank space at the top and doesn't print the bottom few lines.  I have tried to adjust the margins and the page setup settings but to no avail.  It used to print fine until recently.  Is there a way to fix it so that the printer prints what print preview shows?

    I should add that when I e-mail this document to myself and print it directky from the iMac, it prints fine.

  • 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.

  • Cannot get printer to print with my iMac but will print from my dell laptop?

    cannot get my printer to print with my imac but will print from my dell laptop?

    OK, well you haven't provided any information so there isn't anything we can do. What is needed at the bare minimum is:
    Exactly what printer are you referring to?
    How is it connected to the iMac (USB, Wi-Fi, etc...)?
    What steps you have taken to connect the printer?
    What errors you have run into.
    What I would recommend is using Apple's Printing Overview OS X Lion to learn how to install it. Also take a look at Printer and scanner software for Snow Leopard & Lion to see if it's even compatible with Lion.

  • When I try to print a test page The printer feeds the paper through the printer without printing

    My printer is set up and Windows XP Home SP3 recognizes it. I have checked the Device Manager to see if I had any conflicts.
    I didn't so I opened the print spooler and typed Test in Windows Notebook and hit print. It showed up in the print spooler but
    the printer located the edge of the page then fed the paper through.  I uninstalled the printer and Printer driver and also the software. After I rebooted Windows found the printer and let me load the drivers and I printed a test page afterward and it printed fine. But then it went back to just feeding the paper through.
    I have the latest windows installer version 4.5 running. All of Windows updates are up to date. I'm lost can anyone Help me

    Hi Dona,
    I would like to get a little more information to better assist with troubleshooting.  First, does the error on the LCD of the printer indicate it is attempting to pull from the cassete or the Automatic Sheet Feeder?  It should indicate this at the top of the error.  Also, Are you printing a document or photo?  Lastly, what program are you printing from?

  • Won't print to photo tray, but will print test page

    I have most current Vista driver, but can't print to photo tray.  It won't pull the tray in, although it works great when printing test page.  I tried various page/paper settings and "photo tray" light settings, but still won't print from Vista.
    Tried 8250 printer properties, changing paper settings, but can't recognize settings, even though it sees the paper and prints the test page.  Seemed to work just fine with XP.
    This question was solved.

    Plugged into an XP machine, photo printed.
    Plugged back into Vista, fooled with the settings, then it worked!
    I don't know what exactly fixed it...

    That depends of  your e-mail service. If you are using Outlook, or just directly using Hotmail/Gmail/other mail service...
    Or, are you getting an error when you try to print e-mails?
    Or, are you trying to use ePrint?

  • Printer will not copy but will print from the computer

    Hp Photosmart D110 all in one printer--I am totally disgusted with this printer...have had it a few months.  It will only get about 160 economy pages per ink cartridge which is ridiculous.  So we bought an ink refill kit and just refilled and reinstalled the black ink cartridge.  it is printing from the computer just fine but the printer WILL NOT COPY.  When I use the tool box and check ink levels it just shows question marks on both ink cartridges.
          I spent 45 minutes on HP Chat Support and got no answers except that I need to use genuine HP Cartridges. They could not explain to me why the printer would print but not copy with refilled cartridge.
        Any help from any of you regarding the NOT copying and the ink cartridges.....thanks so much

    Did you ever get it to copy? I have the same problem

  • Printer suddenty wont print Excel or Quickbooks but will print Word docs

    My HP 6500 just decided to stop printing Excel, Quickbooks and Efax but WILL print Word documents and other files. When I hit "okay" ont he print menu the printer head goes back and forth but no ink comes out. Again, the weird thing is that Word docs are fine and print out.
    I have downloaded the driver software twice and turned printer on and off and unplugged it from back of machine.

    Hi @Salsify,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see that your HP Deskjet 3050a will print an internet page but not any documents on Windows 7. I am sorry to hear this but happy to help!
    How is the printer connected? Wireless or USB?
    Are you able to make standalone copies with the printer? Copy Text or Mixed Documents.
    In the meantime, I would recommend to try our HP Print and Scan Doctor, and let me know what happens!
    Hope to hear from you soon!
