MG5420 Won't print on DVD, it always prints on paper

Hello,
I purchased the MG5420 a few days ago as an upgrade to an older Canon printer.  90% of my printing is on DVD's / BLU Rays.  I got one to print, and that was all.  Now, whenever I try to print on a DVD, it always starts printing to paper.  From the pretty bad My Garden software (which I just downloaded the newest version), there is no option to choose paper size J or the disc as a media.  
And to top it off, I have tried 3 third party DVD printing software, and they can't print properely on this printer.
Help please...I just want to print on DVD's.  I don't care if it never prints on any other media.

Hi, MetalWych!
So that the Community can help you better, we will need to know exactly which operating system is running on your computer. That, and any other details you'd like to give will help the Community better understand your issue!
Thanks and have a great day!

  • HP 8630 won't print from Paper Tray 2

    I decided to upgrade last week with the dual paper tray printer and continue to have to manually load my stationary in paper tray 1 to print on custom paper. 
    Why in the world can't HP fix this issue....I've been with Apple Care to do everything regarding repairs on their end of the line and reinstalled printer software following that process and it worked....ONCE. Now I cannot even get the Options Box to stay checked long enough to get ONE print from paper tray 2.
    I'm returning this POS today....unfortunately, I tossed the box after I mistakenly thought it was fix after the Apple Care exercise.
    HP....what is your problem that you can't resolve this issue?????

  • Mg5420 won't print right from websites

    Ever since I replaced the ink cartridges, the printed hasn't worked right. I've done all the test and they come back clean. I spoke to canon and they sent a new print head but I'm still having trouble. Now is manly seems to be on websites. I printed a word doc fine, but an eBay label was very light and almost like it was in a shadow font with only the outlines of the letters printed. When I tried to print a baseball ticket, first it was fuzzy for all
    But the red logo, and after the third try only the logo appeared.

  • Eprint won't print picture - paper mismatch

    When I try to send picture through eprint -I'll get a top page saying where the picture was being send from but then a blank page after that.  Then an error message saying cannot print - paper mistmatch.

    On the touchscreen, look under the settings icon (the little wrench) and browse to Preferences to see if you have a default to set for paper. Mine has a category for 'Device-Printer Tray Select' ,though yours may be a bit different since you have only 1 paper tray.

  • Deskjet 3050 Won't Print Wirelessly

    Hi there,
    My new all in one 3050 won't print for me. It is "Offline" in the network page. I feel I have explored every avenue and it will still not print. The wireless network configuration page I printed says everything passed. The home network disagnostic tool says "software missing" after i click test connection. The print diagnostic tool fails on connectivity everytime. I can connect to the printer ip 192.168.1.3 in the browser 95% of the time but not always. My router is a Zyxel P-660HW-T1 v3. I'm really close to tears with frustration, I'm quite computer and networking savvy but I cannot fix this. please help, I'd be eternally grateful.
    Kind Regards,
    Larry.

  • Report won't print to the end of width in Oracle E-Business Suite

    Hello all,
    I desperately need help to setup Reports 6i layout. I created a report for a 8.3 x 11.69" and it seems fine when I print directly from Reports Developer but when I register it in Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10.2 it won't print to the end of page width. It always cut the print in about 3/4 of page width. I already setup the report as a text and pdf but still no success. Enlarge the width and height of the report won't help either. Anyone can suggest something to help? Thanks.

  • Apple AirPort Express - HP LaserJet M1120 won't print entire document

    Hi,
    My first post.  I've recently purchased Airport Express and installed all necessary programmes (incl. Airport Base Station Agent and Bonjour print service) on my Win 7 Ultimate x64.
    The device is set up as "Join a existing network".
    Airplay works without any issues, but printing does not.
    I've also installed the driver for HP LaserJet M1120 printer.
    When I send something to print (regardless of the file), it won't print the entire document. Usually, it prints smaller documents (up to 10 pages) normally, but when it comes to larger documets it prints only half of the document.
    I send 30 pages document to print and it prints only 15 pages. Then I need to re-send print command and again, it prints only half - 7 or 8. Printer just stops.
    Sometimes i get "Error-printing", but not always.
    This issue happens on all 4 PCs that I have at home all running Win 7 Ultimate x64 or Win Vista Home Premium x32.
    Any ideas?
    HP Print Diagnostic Utility did not find any issues also. Says everything is OK. 

    Unfortunately, not all USB printers are compatible with AirPort base stations. In addition, the  AirPort's USB port does not support the "advanced" printer functions, like scanning, copying or faxing, of multi-function printers. 
    To see if your printer is compatible, take a look at thisiFelix Unofficial AirPort Printer Compatibility link. If your printer isn't listed, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't work, but simply that it has not been verified. iFelix also provides the following workaround for printers not on the list that would certainly be worth a try.
    Also you can try this Apple Tech Support article to see if it will help: Printer troubleshooting for AirPort Base Stations and Time Capsule
    Finally, check out this IBM support article to see if your printer is listed as having a Postscript or PCL3 interface. If it does, then it will most likely work with the AirPort's USB port. Printers that use the "HP LIDIL" interface must be connected to a computer directly and will not work.

  • Brother Printer won't print unless you restart Mac in Mavericks

    I recently updated to Mavericks and got the new printer updates for my Epson 4880 and Brother MFC 7420. In Mavericks, it won't print unless you restart. This is very frustrating. System Preferences says that the printer isn't connected, when it is. If you restart, it'll print the stalled print job as its starting up. From that point on, it works. Does anyone have any suggestions as far as getting this to function normally? I've updated to the most recent drivers and reinstalled- Problem Persists.
    Thanks in advance,
    Al Harding

    I'm also having communication issues between a MBP with Mavericks (though the problem has existed with older OS's) and the MFC-7420, also via USB. Restarting the computer does always seem to clear up any problems (whatever they are), until after a few print jobs or a scan job, things mysteriously seem to again go haywire. Sometimes restarting the printer is enough. Often not, though. Also, while there is updated firmware available for the printer, I am unable to install it using a Mac (Windows only).
    Suggestions are more than welcome. Thanks in advance.

  • Printer won't print from laptop

    Here goes!  I hope this is enough info.
    I have an old (but faithful) HP v40 All-In-One color printer that worked beautifully until August, 2014.  I got malware on my laptop and when I got software to work on removing the malware, my printer would no longer work with my laptop. When I replace the ink cartridges, the printer prints the alignment page with no problem.  It just won't print any documents from my laptop any more.  Somehow I have v40, v40 (1) and v40 (2) printers listed under the printer/devices & cannot erase them.  Anyway, I have created a default on all three and it still doesn't print.
    When MS updated files to my computer, could the original printer driver be too old to work with the updated files? OR
    your suggestion please!!
    Unfortunately I don't have the Internet anymore so it may take a day or two to get back to whomever answers this post.  Thanks in advance.

    Hi @KJazz 
    I understand you are having some troubles with ol' faithful, aka your v40 printer!
    Running the Print and Scan Doctor might help, but you would need internet to download it. The HP Print and Scan Doctor is a free utility (tool) that helps to quickly resolve common printing, scanning and connectivity issues including but not limited to:
    Connectivity:
    USB: Verifies that the USB connection from your computer to the HP product is working correctly.
    Network: Verifies that the network connection between your computer and your network is working correctly.
    Device Status Test: Checks for device errors such as out of paper, paper jams, carriage stalls, and paper feed issues, and then provides instructions for fixing the error.
    Driver Check: Checks for missing or corrupt driver files.
    Device Manager: Checks for problems in Device Manager that would prevent printing.
    Device Online: Checks if the product has been paused or set to offline, and then sets the status back to online if necessary.
    Print Queue: Checks for and clears pending print jobs in the print queue (a log of print jobs waiting to print).
    Port Match: Checks the port settings for the HP product.
    Device Conflicts: Checks for conflicts with other drivers, such as other printer brands.
    Ink Issues: Checks the cartridges and ink levels for issues that affect print quality.
    Print Settings: Checks and adjusts the print quality settings.
    Test Print: Prints a test page for print quality evaluation, and provides options for cleaning and aligning the printhead if necessary.
    Scan Tests: Checks the scan mechanism, drivers, and registry entries.
    Source:Try the HP Print and Scan Doctor for Windows
    Click here to download and run the Print and Scan Doctor> www.hp.com/go/tools
    ***  You could go somewhere where you would have internet access, and download the Print and Scan Doctor to thumb drive. Then use the Thumb drive to install it and us it on the computer.
    If that does not resolve the issue, post back and let me know if there are any symbols other than green check marks and what they are next to of course. The wrench is not always easy to spot as the wrench and the check mart are in the green circle.
    If you see only green check marks (), the tool did not find any problems.
    If you see green wrenches (), the utility identified an issue and corrected it automatically.
    If you see yellow exclamation points (), the test failed and required user action, but the step was skipped.
    If you see a red X (), follow the on-screen instructions to resolve the issue.
    I look forward to hearing back from you

  • Printer won't print - HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus All in 1

    Hi,
    Please can anyone help me ?
    I have Windows 7, 64 bit HP computer with  a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus All in 1 Printer.
    It printed over the network/wireless yesterday. I then had a problem scanning to the computer so I followed advice on the HP community and uninstalled and re-installed the latest software/driver for the printer.
    Today it WON'T PRINT!! The printer has a connection to my router (Plus Net Technicolor N router) and shows the little symbol on the printer screen. I tried printing my work today and it says the printer is offline - it can't be as the printer is ON and has a signal connection. 
    I have uninstalled, reinstalled, turned it on and off on the printer, I've restarted the computer, I've unplugged and plugged in all of it - the router, computer and printer. The computer has the green tick to say the printer is the default and it is ready. It then says to check the network connection or it maybe to do with the firewall settings, but these I haven't changed for over 1 month and I've printed loads of stuff between then and yesterday.
    I desperately need my printer and short of going to have to buy a brand new one - I don't know how to fix it!!!
    Please can anyone out there help me??!!!
    Help!!!!!!!!!!
    Thanks for any helpful advice
    Victoria

    Just to say as well that on the top of the 'X there is a problem printing' At the top where it says the printer - it has on it 'Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600'
    So it is trying to print from the 'Fax' part of the printer and yet when I change the printer device to the actual 'printer' part to default it always changes back to the 'fax' Officejet Pro 8600 Plus rather than the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus.
    I will uninstall all the elements to the printer and then find the latest driver to the printer and start again to see if that helps.
    Please help me!!!
    Thank you for any helpful advice

  • Crop marks won't print

    I’ve only run into this with one client. He sends me individual epses, each one a business card to print. When I open them in Illustrator it looks like there are crop marks and bleed, when I place in InDesign, as I always do, to set 8 up on a page the bleed won’t print and the crop marks won’t print.  I can enlarge the object box and see the bleed and crop marks but they still wont print. If I print directly from Illustrator just to test it, it will print the bleed but still no crop marks. This is all in CS3 but was the same when I had CS2.

    I always prefer to use trim marks (crop marks as opposed to crop area) and fit the artboard to them.
    I'm with you, Steve. I did it that way for years mainly because it left no room for ambiguity (and because that's what made sense to those of us who used to paste layout elements down on artboards with rubber cement).
    Unfortunately, over the last few versions, Adobe seems to have been changing the paradigm on us. I've seen an attempt to bring Illustrator in line with the DTP way of doing things -- Quark, Pagemaker, and InDesign have always equated artboard size with document trim size. The change in Illustrator terminology (no more reference to "trim marks"), I think, was the first clue that this was happening.
    In th U.S., more and more magazines (even as their numbers dwindle) are now accepting print ad layouts done in Illustrator (whereas they used to insist they be done exclusively in QuarkXpress). Those that do, however, are insisting that the document (artboard) size correspond to their trim size.
    OK, fine. But I don't have to like it.

  • My applet won't print properly

    I wrote an applet that draws a line graph based on parameters I feed it through <PARAM> tags. Those tages are written dynamically with Cold Fusion. It works perfectly, but what good is a graph if you can't have a copy of it? When I try to print the page with the applet running in it, nothing comes out. My computer is running Win98, IE 6.0 and proper printer drivers. The funny thing is I am able to print some of the demo applets that come with the JDK, but my own applet will not print. It can be printed from other computers around my office. I thought maybe it was IE 6 acting up so I tried Netscape 4.7, 6.0, and Opera 6.0 none of them can print my applet from my computer. I'm just worried that someone out there will have the same problem as me.
    The way I'm drawing the graphs is by overloading the default paint method of the applet. Like I said, it works fine on some computers, and a variety of web browsers, exept IE 6. I looked at the source code of the sample applets that WERE ABLE to print on my computer, I realized they extended the Canvas class, overloaded its paint method, then added the canvas to the applet's panel. I tried to mimic that with my applet and still no luck. I compile the sample applet and mimic the html sample page and then it won't print anymore. Any thoughts on what is going on?

    To print an applet in action make a
    SCREENSHOT!
    The online game players always do this to save screens.
    On WIN 98 it is: STRG+PAUSE I guess.
    Copy the screenshot to e.g. paint.exe and print.
    Hope this helps.

  • Won't print color

    1) I was given this printer as a gift about four years ago. The first time I got the "Low Ink"message,  I replaced fhe cartridges. Now it always tells me I'm low on ink, even after I've installed new cartidges.
    2) Just installed a new set of cartridges which, as you know, are exorbitantly expensive. And now it won't print color.
