Photosmart C7250 trouble printing 4x6 photos

I can't get the printer to print from the 4x6 photo paper stack when I print from the computer.  It will print from that stack if I bring the photo to the printer using external medium but then it prints it the wrong size.  If I send the print command from the computer it prints the right size but on the full size paper tray.  I created the original to be 3.3x4.8 and it will print that way on plain paper from the lower tray.  If I load the photo on a memory card it will print on the 4x6 paper but will enlarge it to 4x6.
I am using a Macbook Pro OSX 10.5.8 wirelessly to the Photosmart C7250.

  • Having trouble printing 4X6 photos on hp photosmart 7280

    When I select print in iPhoto, the print dialog box shows the image to be printed rotated 90 degrees from its orientation in iPhoto and I cannot find a way to rotate the image to normal to print it. I am using a photosmart 7280 with most up to date driver and my iPhoto is latest version. What can I do???

  • Printing 4x6 photos on HP Laserjet 4630. photo paper tray not working?

    I am trying to print 4x6 photos on glossy paper.  My printer has a photo paper tray in addition to a standard letter tray.  When I specify 4x6 borderless glossy paper in the print parameters, the printer keeps pulling from the standard paper tray instead of the photo tray on top of the printer.  This has worked for me in the past, but I haven't used it in a long time.  What must I be doing wrong?

    Hey. I'm a photographer with the C4280.
    This printer takes care of 8.5 x 11's pretty much perfectly. But 4 x 6 not for me on iPhoto or Photoshop.
    So what I did was I set up a pages document with a blank template, set at 4 x 6 inches.
    I dragged rulers about .25inches in and threw in the photo set at 4 x 6 ratio. So... most photos are 4 x 6, just resize it to fit in the rulers.
    I've noticed in most occasions it cuts off the top of the photo document when laid out in portrait.
    What I do is a hit command p, select the printer but choose under the drop box that says "layout" i hit borderless printing, and a selectable box will show up saying "print borderless" and i just clicked it.
    on the document though you might want to make the opacity 10% to save ink. you have to trouble shoot the exact place to set and drag up or down the photo. but once you get it, its reliable the duration the document is open and the printer is on.
    i know its kind of pointless for one, but i had a shoot with live printing on the spot with this printer and its great. you can add texts boxes and put those perfectly where you want (once you set the picture so its set) and throw in another picture and really customize the 4 x 6.
    i printed a postcard with the writing already in it. just had to mail it no writing involved.
    you also need iwork 08 or 09. i have 08 but im sure 09 works. so if you save the pages doc as a template you can just drag in the image file into where the old image is and print that way.
    command p, choose borderless printing in the drop box and click print borderless. it should work.
    email me for a copy of my pages document. [email protected]
    i promise though, with canon or epson 4 x 6 print paper, its pretty amazing. almost comparable to my prints from my printer.
    or you can fit 12 3.5 x 2inch (business card sized) pics on an 8.5 x 11.

  • Trying to print 4x6 photos on 7520, always gives no paper in tray message

    I am trying to print 4x6 photos from my laptop.  I have changed the preferences for the printer to "photo tray" and 4x6 photo paper.  I keep getting the message "no paper in tray".  The main tray is empty and I have 4x6 photo paper in the photo tray.  What next?

    the settings are correct.  if I put paper in the main tray it prints the picture on paper, not photo paper.  I printed a test page last night and it printed on the photo paper.  I still get the same message when trying to print the photo.  Thanks

  • 6515 won't print 4x6 photos defaults to 8x10. This happens on two different hp computers

    Hp 6515 will not print 4x6 photos defaults to 8x10 paper tray. This happens on two different model HP computers.

    Hello Cal31,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand when you try to print a 4x6 photo, it defaults to 8x10 paper. What is your operating system on your computer(s)? Windows or Mac?
    I would recommend following this HP document on An 'Out of Paper' Message Displays on the Control Panel and the e-All-in-One Does Not Pick Up Paper ... Make sure you change the "Print Settings" to the correct paper size and the "Media Tab" is set on "Photo Tray".
    Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you.

  • I cannot print 4x6 photos only 8.5x11

    When I try to print a 4x6 photo it looks like it has a red haze to it. When I try to print the same picture on 8.5x11 it prints perfectly. How do I get the printer to print 4x6 photos. I am using HP paper. Can you help?

    Hi there eod126,
    Could you provide the community with a little more information to help narrow troubleshooting? Things like your printer model and your operating system help out a lot.

  • L7680 Won't print 4x6 photo-Erro​r Code B842F086

    Prints letter size OK. Test page and alignment pages good.  When I try to print 4x6 photos, printer locks up and I get an immediate error message “Turn power off then on again”, then error code B842F086.  Later, the message “….Improper shut down”

    Yes, it has always printed 4x6 just fine. I am talking about 'borderless'  4x6.  Just as an experiment, I tried 4x6 with border and one other 4x6 format (don't remember), no joy.  They I retried 4x6 bordrless and it worked fine.  Printed several sets of photos. 
    Go figure???

  • When I print 4x6 photos they are crooked on the paper

    Can anyone tell me why, when I print 4x6 photos the photo is crooked on the paper?

    Hello ncurto,
    Sorry that the photos are coming out crooked.  There actually could be a number of reasons why this could be happening.  I would like to request a little information from you.
    1.  The model number of the printer.  (c309, a909, d110)
    2.  What type of paper are you using?  (brand and size)
    3.  Have you done any type of troubleshooting since the issue has begun?  (Cleaning rollers, power cycling)
    4.  How long has this issue been a problem and did it ever print correct?
    5.  Does this error occur when you print out of the one application or all applications?
    The answers you provide will allow me to better diagnose the issue.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • How do I print 4x6 photos on an HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus via Windows Photo Viewer or Gallery

    Dear Experts, I've got an HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer with just one paper tray in which I loaded 4x6 photo paper.
    The printer was purchased in January 2014, the latest drivers are installed. Now I would like to print a single 4x6 photo using Windows Photo Viewer or Gallery.I loaded the 4x6 photo paper  into the tray as indicated by the little icon labeled 4x6in, so I suppose I got the HW part right. It's just the SW part which gives me a hard time. The available paper size options in Windows Photo Viewer and Gallerydon't include photo paper sizes, just the standard paper and envelope sizes.Hence I checked in the HP Printer Assistant in "Set Preferences" what kind of paper sizes are available, and there is exactly the same list as proposed by Gallery, missing photo paper sizes. So I guess Gallery just picks the sizes from the driver and ther are no photo paper sizes. This is an issue because I prefer to print from my PC using Win 7 or Win 8 and not from a SD card or a USB stick. Any help is very welcome, thank you in advance!   

    Thank you for this link! Actually I installed a brand new Windows 8 system in January 2014 and then bought the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus printer a few days later. To install this printer I did not use the CD that came with it but already used this link. Just to be sure that I have the latest version I again reinstalled the driver. The result is definitive: You cannot print common photo paper sizes like 4x6,  5x7, 8x10, etc. via a PC using photo SW like HP Photo Creations, MS Gallery, Windows Photo Viewer or any other SW on a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus. The reason is most likely that HP marketing decided that an Officejet should not be smart enough for photos, after all the company sells also Photosmarts. Because you cannot create your own formats  you are limited by the driver to what is typically available in an office, in this case:  A4, Letter, legal, Statement, Executive, A4, A5, A6, B54 (JIS), Envelopes #10-DL-C5-C6-A2-Monarch, Japanese Postcard, Japanese Envelope Chou #3-#4, L, 2L, O**bleep**u hagaki, Index Card Letter-A4, Edge-to-Edge Letter-A4, Env. Japanese No 3-No 4 and that's it, not more. Thank you anyway for trying to help me but in this case only the SW developers in HP can help.It would be great to be able to print from time to time a 4x6 photo on this printer like I would do.Copying photos on a USB stick or on a SD card first and then use this way to print on the printer is too cumbersome for me.

  • My HP phoyosmsrt 7510 wont print 4x6 photo paper from computer/ ok 4x6 from printer itself

    1. HP photosmart 7510 c311a
    2. machine a.  windows vista
                          b. windows 7
    3. no error messages
    4. new printer added 1 day ago....prints from bottom paper tray only from computer but prints from both trays from the printer itself

    I'm having the same problem.  Is there something in the software that I am missing.  I use Windows Live Photo Gallery software for the image, adjust the photo size to 4x6.  It prints a 4x6 photo on the 8x10 paper.  How do I tell the printer to use the size paper I am wanting for each photo?  Can it be changed print by print?  How do I switch it back to the 8x10 paper tray when needed?  Is there a page in the manual I can refer to?  Thanks for any assistance.

  • Deskjet 6988dt, how to use photo/envelope slot for printing 4x6 photo paper?

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OS.  Printer has the extra250 sheet paper tray.  Upper and lower tray work fine.  I can of course load photo paper in upper tray and print photos from there, but I was trying to load just one sheet of photo paper in the little slot since I don't want to have photo paper loaded all the time.  Since I have to use the generic Windows driver for this printer as HP doesn't have a driver update for this printer and Windows 7, the only selections I'm seeing in printer properties is "automatic, upper, lower".  I've tried all three of those settings and none take the paper from the little slot where I'm manually feeding the 4x6 photo paper.  What am I doing wrong?  Could it be that this feature just isn't enabled with the generic Windows driver?
    The reference/instruction documentation that came with this printer is very sparse.  I can't find any instruction on how to use the photo/evelope slot.  In fact I'd say overall the documentation is very poor.
    I just checked the HP site, still no Windows 7 64-bit driver available.
    Thanks for any help or ideas.

    Found a .pdf document on line for the Desjet 6980 series printers. Much more comprehensive than what came with the printer.

    Follow these steps to use the photo/envelope feeder to print a single photo:
    1. Insert the photo paper into the photo/envelope feeder with the side to be printed on
    facing down.
    2. Gently push the photo paper into the photo/envelope feeder as far as it will
    comfortably go.
    3. Slide the photo/envelope feeder forward as far as it will go.
    4. Print the photo.
    Problem was, although I was inserting the 4x6 photo paper into the feeder, I wasn't pushing the little plastic slide forward.

  • Printing 4x6 Photos in Adobe Photoshop Album Starter 3.0

    Some time ago, I thought I downloaded a fix to this program to allow three 4x6 photographs to be printed on one page. I can't find this subject again. The problem is that although the Print Preview shows three 4x6 prints on a page, it actually prints only two to the first page and then kicks the third one to a second page. This is in the individual prints layout. The Page Setup will not allow me to change any margins, and it makes no difference whether "Crop to Match" is selected. Does anyone have any information on how to get three 4x6 photos to print to a page? Thank you.

    Hello, Jim--
    Thank you for trying to help me! I discovered that I just couldn't do anything to make this work on my Lexmark printer, even with margin considerations. We just bought a new HP printer that we're still experimenting with, and my three 4x6 photo format comes out perfectly on that. So, it's out with the Lexmark, in with the HP! Thanks again for your response. I appreciate it.
