Not printing to correct paper tray

It seems all of a sudden when trying to print from Iphoto it is choosint the wrong paper tray, not the photo paper tray. How do I fix this?

Download and install the latest drivers for your printer model. Get it either from the manufacture's website or from Apple's Downloads site: Apple - Support - Search

Scanned documents do not print out correctly on forms.

I scanned a pdf file to my computer. I opened the pdf file on my computer using Adobe Reader. I printed the file using my printer. The pdf file did not print out correctly. The printed text was out of alignment with the form I was printing on. The printer/scanner manufacturer troubleshot the problem and determined it is not a hardware issue, but an Adobe Reader software issue. Please help. Thank you.

Yes, the scanned PDF size is the same as the paper size in my printer. Everything worked fine for the past year. The only thing I had changed was I purchased a new wireless HP printer/scanner. Before, I was using an USB cable. While troubleshooting my issues, I have somehow caused Adobe Reader X to quit working. I cannot open any PDF files. I get a message about system configuration is not compatiable.

Built-in Fax and printing to default paper tray

Gentleones,
I have a HP LJ1320n which is connected to my iMac. The problem is that incoming faxes, when printed, cause the printer to request paper and the only way to make the printer continue is to go press the green button on the printer.
I cannot find anything anywhere which would allow me to tell the built-in faxing capability of 10.4.10 the default paper tray or page size. None of the options in printer setup affect the behavior. It always makes me press the green button.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Bill

hi again!
just had a look at my print n share app on the ipad. select your document, tap the printer icon on the top right and a new Print option box will open with all the print options, the paper tray option is at the bottom (I have attached a screenshot below) :

HP Officejet 6000 Wireless - Does not print black correctly.

HP Officejet 6000 Wireless - Does not print black correctly.
Previously the printer was printing fine.
This evening I printed a diagram I made in MS PowerPoint. The diagram contained black and red text along with black, red, and blue lines. When I took the printed page from the printer, all the black items looked faded. Instead of black, they printed as a light, faded gray. The red and blue printed correctly.
Another user of the printer printed some documents around the same time. These documents had nothing but black text. Every page this user printed showed up completely blank. The black was not even faded. There were no signs of anything being printed on the pages at all.
It seemed strange that one print job would print faded black and the other printed nothing. Considering the possibility that the ink was low, a new black cartridge was placed into the printer. The exact same results occured. My diagram printed correctly except for the fact that the things that were supposed to be black were coming up as light gray. Once again, the documents printed by the other user came up completely blank.
I ran a print test on the printer. It printed a Windows logo with the word "Windows" below. The logo printed correctly. The text showed up as a light, faded gray.
A third user printed an Excel spreadsheet. The cell borders were printed as a light gray. Nothing else printed. Everything in the spreadsheet was supposed to be black.
The third user also printed a recipe from MS Word. Most of the text showed up as a light, faded gray. Some text did not show up at all. I could not see any correlation between what showed up in faded gray and what did not show up.
It seems to me that if something was wrong with the cartridges, it would either always be faded or not print at all. I can consistently get some things to print faded and other things to not print at all. Color always prints correctly.
The print jobs were sent to the printer wirelessly from three different computers. Two computers run Windows 7 (x64). The third computer runs Windows XP SP2.
As far as I can tell, nothing was changed or done differently between now and the last time something printed correctly.
Might this be a driver issue? Since the printing consistently prints one way for certain files and another way for other files, I don't see it as being caused by hardware. If it's not a software issue, what could possibly cause the effects I described above?

Photosmart D7560 will not print envelopes - load paper into main tray

My photosmart d7560 will not print envelopes, after moving the envelope into position for printing, the message "load paper into main tray" is displayed. It does print the envelope data correctly on a piece of 8.5x11 paper. Setup is for a #10 envelope. Envelopes are self sealing. I have tried creasing the edge better but that didn't help. I tried a non-self seal (which had a letterhead on it so I couldn't use it for this mailing) and it DID work. Is there any way to make self seal envelopes work in this printer?
This question was solved.

Do you have the flap folded inside the envelope, so that it does not stick out?

Lets try manually setting to the photo tray:
- Click the Start orb -> Click Devices/Printers
- Find and right click your printer -> Click Printer preferences
- Select the Paper/Quality Tab -> in the "select paper source" choose the photo tray
- Set the paper size (the next option down) accordingly
Let us know if it helps or not.

HT4356 I have just updated my Epson printer to one which supports air print but consider it to be a waste of money as my printer has two paper trays and there is option to choose which try...just "print" How can I print photos via AirPrint from photo tr

Hi,
First-timer on this...Just updated my printer which was less than one year old, to one which had Air Print capabilities. This one is the Epson XP605 which has two trays, one being for photos. Each time I tried to Air Print a photo, it printed from the A4 plain paper tray instead of the Photo Tray.Twice...then I came into my study and changed the printer settings to Tray 1 (photo tray) Photo paper, size 5x7 and Photo Best, but still it printed on plain A 4 paper. Would be most grateful for any help, although I did read on one Apple site that AirPrint may not be able to choose trays!!!! "may not"?? Thanks

I just figured out the print quality issue for my wife with her new iMac and new printer.
She replaced both at once and she couldn't understand why her Artisan 730 was lower quality then her Epson R280 when they had the same specs.
Turns out the newer printer had the option to connect via wifi which we used during setup.
The driver options are completely different depending on how you connect.
Once I connected via USB the correct options were available and the print quality was better.
Looking at the R2400 it dies not have wifi, but while researching the problem for my wife someone esle was having an issue updating to the latest printer driver.
If you go into the print utility from the Printer and Scanner system preference and under the general tab you should have driver 5.5.
One user had to delete the old printer driver before Software Update loaded the newer printer driver.

On my MacBook Pro (w Snow Leopard) I always had to reconnect my wifi at home when it woke up. I upgraded my router from an old Netgear to a newer N D-Link and stopped having to do that.
I would be surprised you would have that problem with an Airport Extreme, you might check to see if there is a firmware update for it.

Adobr Reader XI: document will not print: premium presentation paper

I've had no problems with this before today. Adobe Reader XI gives me an error message that "document will not print". I tried it in draft, plain paper, and it printed, without a problem. I switched browsers, from Google Chrome, redownloaded the document (online labels) into IE8, then tried to reprint as premuim presentation paper, matte, color. Same error message. Yet, as a draft, no problem. I've uninstalled, reinstalled, updated drivers on Epson printer (WF2530), same error message. AShould I do a system restore to two days ago, since this is the last time there was no problem? I print product labels.

Thanks Atul,
Th problem has recently been resolved when my new technician made some adjustmnents. The problem was not the fault of Acrobat. It goes back to my new high definition IPS monitor several weeks earlier. When using Windows Office 2007 I was seeeing green haloes mainly between letters such as" ll, ii, db" etc. where the vertical lines filled with green. In Adobe Bridge, the variable text in control boxes took on a red colour. My technician (at the time) sought help via the Microsoft Help site and found this was a common problem with professional high definition IPS monitors like my new one. The instructions (4 pages from the Microsoft site) said to turn off the Clear Text Type and replace the font 'SEGOE' with Tahoma. As the technician workede his way through the steps, I watched as he marked them off as he went so as to ensure the changes were correctly made. This solved the problem but it wasn't until a week later when I tried to print a PDF file that my problems with Acrobat began. The PC was taken to another technican fora "second opinion" and this man fixed the problem within a short time by changing the font back to the Windows default, SEGOE. He may have done something else but when I saw the printer dialog panel on his workbench with no other problems either, I was anxious to try it with my new monitor. No more colour fringing/haloes etc and no further problems with Acrobat However, I was waiting a little longer before informing you of the outcome-just in case it didn't work.
It seems that Microsoft may be incorrect in their 'Fix' advice as the font SEGO may well be required for Acrobat to print a PDF file?
This case may now be closed with thanks for trying to help with a problem that in the end turned out to not your fault

X64 not printing snip correctly

I snipped (using Windows snipping tool) an item and pasted it in a Word document. When I view the document in print preview the document is correct. When it prints the HP 8610 printed changes size of the snipped item. I tried printing the document using my old HP Pro 8000 and it prints the size of the snipped item correctly. However my old Pro 8000 does not print in color so I can not use it for this document. This is not the first time the 8610 has changed the size of a snipped item. How can I solve the problem?

Hi , Welcome back to the HP Support Forums! I see that you're having issues printing a snipped image correctly to your HP Officejet Pro 8616 e-All-in-One Printer. I would be happy to assist you with this. In order for me to assist you better, I may require more information. What format are you saving the image as?Which program are you printing from? I recommend these steps: Start by snipping the image you wish to print, select Save Snip or click File -> Save As -> select JPEG file -> Save. Now, locate the image you saved and double click on it to open it up. It should have opened up in Windows Photo Viewer. Choose Print -> Print -> Choose your printer -> Choose the correct Paper Size -> Select Fit picture to frame. See how that turns out. If you're still experience problems, there might be an issue with the print driver. The Print and Scan Doctor will help determine if the printer is using the correct driver. Please download and run the Print and Scan Doctor, it will likely diagnose and resolve the issue you are experiencing. What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages) Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. I look forward to hearing from you. Good Luck!

Can't print to correct paper size.

I am using an HP Deskjet 5440. I want to print to 4x6 paper. I go into iPhoto 6.0.6 and set up a picture to print on 4x6 paper (or so I think). I hit preview. It looks perfect. I hit print. It prints about an eighth of the picture (right proportions and all, as if it were going to look right on the paper) then stops and spits it out as if it's finished. Okay, I go into Photoshop Elements and try to print again using that program, this time it prints half the page correctly and spits it out after that. Then I go into Preview. It prints out 3/4 of the page correctly, but there is still white space on the page. What am I doing wrong? I would think that if it looked right in the "preview" mode, it would print out that way. Why is it not printing out to the full page. It's a landscape picture and I select landscape mode, I set it to fill a 4x6 page. In Page Setup I select 4x6 borderless printing. I just want it to look like it does in "preview mode." Can somebody please help me and tell me how to get it to print the entire image on the whole piece of paper? Thanks.

Thank you for the suggestion. I tried what you suggested and it didn't work. I am getting more and more frustrated. I don't know what the problem is. It's affecting all my photo programs though. It's not only happening in iPhoto, but my new Photoshop Elements and in Preview. It just prints out half the picture on 4x6 paper, whether I select landscape or portrait. If I print the picture out on 8 1/2 x 11 it comes out okay in the middle of the paper in 4x6.
Here's more details. I scanned in a bunch of negatives on my new Epson Perfection V200 PHOTO scanner. I used the negative caddy to scan them in. I scanned them in using 3200 dpi and original size target. I imported all the pictures to iPhoto and tried to print some of them out. When I set it up using 4x6 borderless printing, it only printed the picture on half the paper. It looked as if it was going to print correctly, but for some reason the printing stopped at half the page. When I used the other landscape setting it printed out the OTHER half of the picture. So, now I can tape the two halves and make one picture, but not a real solution, is it?
So, I opened up Photoshop Elements, which I also just purchased. I tried printing from there and it still only printed a partial picture. The same result came from trying to print it from Preview. Although, sometimes, the printer goes through the motions of printing and then NOTHING is printed on the page.
Also, for some reason, the black and white photos come out looking as if they've been through some sort of filter, like "emboss" or something similar. What could be causing that?
Here is what I am using:
Intel iMac 20 inch
2.16 GHz Core 2 Duo
2 GB of SDRAM
256 Megs VRAM
iPhoto 6.0.6
Photoshop Elements 4.0.1
HP Deskjet 5440
Kodak Premium Photo Paper 4x6
I have tried various settings and I cannot get it to print on a full 4x6 page. Even when I use constrain or page setup or various combinations.
When I printed out large numbers of 4x6 photos on my old iMac G3 last year using the last version of iPhoto and the same HP Deskjet printer, they came out perfectly. They had been taken with a Kodak Digital camera.
Any help would be appreciated, I get more and more frustrated.

Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.5.0 will not print SRA3 size paper

I created an Adobe InDesign file 320x450mm (SRA3) and saved it as a a High Quality PDF. However, when I print from Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 with SRA3 paper size settings, it defaults to A4 and the printer will not register the SRA3 paper size request. The tech from Canon updated the printer driver which increased print dialog options such as Paper Handling, Paper Source etc. (which I didn't have before) and spent over an hour running tests. We both agreed there was a software issue since there were not issues from other software:
I can print SRA3 files from InDesign and Microsoft Word, but not Adobe Acrobat Pro.
This is an ongoing problem since I often receive artwork in PDF format at this size.
My workaround is to place the PDF into InDesign, line up the crops by eye and print to SRA3 paper which works fine until I need to do a double sided print which becomes slightly innacurate and often time consuming.
Canon printer driver specs:
V2.0
iR-ADV C5045/5051 PS (UK)

What happens if you select other paper sizes? Also ensure that 'choose paper source by PDF page size' is not checked at your print dialog.
Kindly let us know your results and if possible please forward us your pdf at [email protected]
Looking forward to help you out.
Thanks

PDF files that do not print out on paper but are OK on screen

Print PDF files when produced in ADOBE XI from Excel 2010 worksheets
The PDF files appear ok on the screen but do not print out all of the text on paper.
Formating is recognised and printed oK but not text.
Font segoe UI size 9 point - colours used default, blue and brown. What little that is printed shows all colours OK but not all body of text
This problem has been reported to me from dozens of my Clients and I have the same problem when printing hardcopy.
Can anybody help ?

I tried a font change on an abstracted part of the original file. I selected Ariel - the majority of the page printed - headers and footers partialy printed. But it is a step forward thank you.
My choice of Font Segoe UI (True type) font as a default was after reading an article which stated that Segoe and another font, were fast becoming a "Microsoft computer standard font".
A further question falls out of my problem is why is there no problem when a client of mine converted the original Excel Workbook with Adobe 9 and had no such problem ?.
I do not have ADOBE 9 and cannot test it myself - but why should it work with an older version of ADOBE ?
