Maximum paper weight for printing with a photosmart 5520 printer needed. Table gives sizes only

Hi,
I am trying to find out if my printer can print 350 gsm canvas style A4 photopaper. There is an older post with a link but the links only give the paper size .
There is also a 320 gsm version of this paper.
What is the maximum paper weight?

Hi Tony,
On the right side:
HP Brochure Paper and HP Professional Paper
180gsm
HP Premium Presentation120gsm Paper and HP
Professional Paper 120gsm
================================================
Google is our friend for this sort of conversion / measurement.
Most American made paper is sold by Pound measurement which might be shown on the front of the package.
A chart might be useful to determine what the average home printer uses.
Pounds to GSM Paper Weight Conversion Chart
I am unsure the extent of what you require for this -- the printer may be able to handle the extra weight paper or not. If the job is one for which you may not need to use the printer again, you might consider using a professional service and not risk your home equipment that may not be suited to this heavy duty service.
Good Luck!

Problem printing with HP Photosmart 7520 printer. Same bad result independent of advanced settings.

How can it be that, no matter what settings (advanced, custom, PS manages color, Printer manages color,...) I get the same terrible result for a reference photo (dull, colorless)? It is as if the PS CS6 is not controlling anything with these settings. Is there something else I need to set to make this work? (Old HP Photosmart 7960 works fine, but they stopped manufacturing new photo cartridges). The 7520 all-in-one makes copies of graphics with excellent, accurate color rendition so it is something with the settings for the printer. The device can print good color. HP support says its Photoshop settings. I don't know what it is.
Thanks for your help.

Compatibility of using Photosmart 7510 printer with a Photosmart 7525 printer from the same computer

Before installing, registering, and setting up my new HP Photosmart 7525 I need to know whether I can keep using my 2 year old HP Photosmart 7510 and its software on my computer and whether this would cause a conflict. My 2 year old Photosmart 7510 works fine and I want to use the Photosmart 7510 and the Photosmart 7525 both from the same computer and network without conflict. And if a conflict would be probable, is it necessary to remove the Photosmart 7510 software before installing the software/drivers for the Photosmart 7525?

Hi,
You can install more than 1 printer to your computer. They will share few folders including HP Photo Creations product but they should live harmony together.

I cannot select the Paper Size when I try to print with HP Photosmart B110a with Windows 8.1 64bit

I cannot select the Paper Size when I try to print with HP Photosmart B110a
The same printer was working OK with my old PC with OS Windows 7
However I got a new PC with OS Windows 8.1 64bit
I installed the new driver for HP Photosmart B110a that I dowloaded from HP site. Driver forWindows 8.1 64bit.
In addition to not being able to chose the paper size, also when I go to Printer Properties in Options, all the characters are non-ascii.
Do you know what may be the problem?
Thank you

Hello Nanu64,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having some issues when attempting to print from your computer.
I also see that you stated that not all the options are available in the printing preferences options. This could be because the installation was not complete or it failed.
I suggest that we do a complete uninstall/ reinstall as well as some additional steps.
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.
If you have the printer connected to the computer with a usb cable, please remove the cable from both ends and leave it disconnected until further notice.
The next link that I have for you will give you detailed instructions for Uninstalling the Printer Software. Once the uninstall is complete, reboot the computer so that the changes take affect.
When the computer is back up and running, please disable any firewalls or anti virus protection you may have running. We don't want anything getting in the way of the reinstall.
The following download is the HP Photosmart Full Feature Software and Drivers. Save this download to the desktop of the computer so that it creates its own icon. This will make it easy for us to find when the download is complete.
Double click the new icon and follow the installation instructions. The installation will give you connection options (Wireless , usb or Ethernet), if connecting usb, please wait for the prompt to connect the cable. Connecting the usb cable before hand can cause an issue with the installation.
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.

Last update for OS 10.8.2 caused big problems with HP photosmart B110 printer /scanner cannot scan does anyone have the same problem or a solution?
iMac is connected via wirelss to printer/scanner. All was working OK until update.

Assuming that the HP software is up-to-date, but still not working, have you tried Image Capture in the Applications folder. Does that work?

Unable to print borderless 4x6 photos with the Photosmart 7510 printer.

I am unable to print borderless 4x6 photos with the Photosmart 7510 printer. There are no option listed for any size borderless printing when i choose the paper size and paper type. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
This question was solved.

I found it. Once you hit print, click on the options link. It opens a separate window. In that window there are two links, one says color management and the other says printer properties, click printer properties. That opens a new window, in that window click the advanced button. That opens a new window titled HP 7510 Advanced options, under the printer feature section near the bottom you will see "Borderless Printing". Left click on that and to the right a drop down menu opens, select borderless, hit ok. After you do this, it will print borderless however you will still NOT see that option when you print, like you used to with the older HP printers. I couldn't find it in the help section, I just stumbled upon it, very frustrating! It will print borderless.

Install new HP Photosmart 5520 printer

Trying to install new HP Photosmart 5520 printer but a screenkeeps coming up saying that the computer OS version is not compatable and to load all updates which I have done but it still won't let me install the printer.

So, what version of OS X do you have? If it is 10.6 or higher, download and install the latest software for your printer from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.
If it is 10.5 or lower, it is time to upgrade your OS X and/or Mac.

How to adjust Date for the HPBEA4E7 (HP Photosmart 5520 series)

Can somebody tell me how to adjust the date for my HPBEA4E7 (HP Photosmart 5520 series)?
For example, I changed the black cartridge yesterday and the printer tells me that I did that on 01/01/2015.

Hi @PieterF3rd
Most of our printers have a setting in the Preferences menu to change the date and time, but it appears this one does not. On the front panel of the printer, touch the little wrench in the top tight hand corner to access the settings menu. In the Setup menu select the Preferences menu and check there, if it is not there maybe check the tools menu. From what I can see, the option is not there, but it certainly should be.
If you can't find the option, I would give us a call and express the issue to a phone professional. It is possible that that connecting the printer to a network and enabling the Web Services will automatically update the date and time, but this should be necessary considering not all customers have network access.
If you are in Canada or US call 800 474 6836, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.
I hope this helps.

I want to use my jetpack 890L as a wireless router to allow wireless printing with a canon laser printer. Is this possible, and does the jetpack support WPS?

I want to use my jetpack 890L as a wireless router to enable wireless printing with a canon laser printer. Is this possible, and does the jetpack support WPS?

I’ve used several wireless printers with a 4510 and 5510 Jetpack and they all print just fine. The MHS890L does not support WPS. The WPS Wikipedia article briefly addresses the reason why you should not use WPS. If you’re having trouble setting up your printer the manufacturer has a toll free support line to help you. Your Jetpack has the Wi-Fi Password on the bottom, under the battery, and or in the LED display.

Photosmart 5520 print on photo paper - black isn't black

Hi, I've been having some issues printing text on photo paper. I create little circles with a name in it (2cmx2cm) to use in jewellery.The print used to be really sharp AND really black. Since a few months, the black is getting a bit faded out, more greytone than black. I tried changing the settings to 'print black only', max. DPI etc, but nothing helps. The ink cartridge isn't empty either, not according to the printer test or me (I shook the cartridge and I can hear there's certainly ink inside). Could you please advise setting I should use? Can I enhance the thickness or grade of black from the print? Would it help if the circles and names are created in a super high DPI file in Photoshop? Thanks in advance.

Hi , Have you by chance changed the type of paper you are using? Based on your description, after the black became a little faded you began tinkering with your print settings. Since changing the print settings didn;t help, I can't help but wonder if the issue is not related to the settings at all. What happens when you try to copy something, is the black print then faded too? Please complete the solutions presented in the following document to full troubleshoot the issue: Fixing Print Quality Problems for the HP Photosmart 5520 e-All-in-One and HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 5520 e-All-in-One Printer Series. I hope this is helpful. Thanks.

Anyone printing with HP Photosmart Pro B9180?

Has anyone been successfully printing with their HP Photosmart Pro B9180 after upgrading to Leopard? I am considering buying one of these printers but only if I am sure that it will work with Leopard as a network printer.
Thanks for any comments.

I haven't printed a lot yet, but have run a few test prints on my B9180 under Leopard and have been getting very good results, comparable to those I got printing under Tiger.
So far my tests have been restricted to printing from Adobe Lightroom and onto HP Advanced Glossy paper, but I haven't seen any problems yet. I hope to be trying some other papers and applications over the next few days.
Note: The print dialog has been completely reorganized under Leopard, and some of the options you need to adjust to get good prints have been relocated to places that aren't obvious, so it pays to poke around.
Jim,
Did your monitor appear any different after installing Leopard?
I did manage to pick my way through the new dialog boxes and found everything that I needed but the color is bad.

Maximum paper thickness for hp Envy 4501

HI, my DH bought an HP Envy 4501 recently, and while it works beautifully, I'm in the middle of a project for him, and need to know the maximum paper thickness that I can print on with it. I know that cardstock, for example, comes in varying thicknesses, and I'm wanting to make sure what I'm thinking will work. Thanks in advane everyone!

Extremely slow wireless printing with HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m

I'm seeing extremely slow print speeds when printing wirelessly from a Mac or a Windows XP system to a new HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m printer. The printer begins printing immediately when I request a print, but it only prints one line. It will then take about 15 minutes to print the rest of the page, printing each line after a very long pause. Demo page printing doesn't exhibit this problem, only documents from programs like Word 2008, Safari and Firefox (tried firefox on PC and Mac) are affected.
If I connect to the printer through a USB connection it prints fine, so this problem appears to be with wireless printing only.
Printer: HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m
Computer: Mac mini (Late 2009 model) (also tried a Windows XP laptop as a comparison, using latest drivers from HP's website)
OS: Mac OS X 10.6.2 with all available updates installed
Computer connection method: Wired Ethernet connection to wireless router
Printer drivers: version 2.2.1 (Apple supplied, HP drivers never installed as system shipped with 10.6)
Wireless router: Apple TimeCapsule (Early 2009) 1TB, running in a/n and b/g modes on 2.4 and 5GHz. TimeCapsule is in bridging mode as the DSL modem handles DHCP service
Encryption: WPA2 Personal, no MAC filtering or hiding of the SSID.
IP addressing scheme: All addresses are handed out by DHCP server with no reservations of any kind
The TimeCapsule is sitting three inches from the printer and the printer indicates full signal. Connection of the printer to the wireless network and setup of the printer on the Mac went without a hitch. Only when printing a test document did we discover the problem. The wireless network is behaving as expected when accessing the Internet from both Mac and Windows devices (tested with a Dell laptop running XP and a MacBook running OS X 10.6.2), so I don't see any overall problems with the wireless network.
Attempted remedies:
1. Rebooting and powering off, waiting, powering on computer
2. Resetting the print subsystem, turning the printer off and on again and reinstalling the printer
3. Unplugging power from the printer and letting it sit for several minutes before trying to print wirelessly.
None of these worked.
This question was solved.

I don't think there is anything wrong with the DSL modem HW. There might be an issue with how print data is being routed though.
Please try the second experiment where you blank-out the default gateway and DNS entries from the printer's internal web configuration page. Open the printer's internal web page by browsing to its IP address. Select Networking and then Wireless (802.11). Under the IPv4 Configuration tab, select Manual IP:
For Manual IP Address, use the existing printer IP address.
For Manual Subnet Mask, use 255.255.255.0
For Manual Default Gateway, leave blank. This is important.
Select Manual DNS Server:
Leave both the Manual Preferred DNS Server and Manual Alternate DNS Server fields empty. This is important.
Press Apply.
Turn off the DSL modem, the printer and all computers connected to your network. Wait 60 seconds then turn on the DSL modem and then turn on the printer. Then turn on the computers. See if this corrects the printing speed.
