Photosmart Premier all in one

I just bought the photosmart premier all in one. Love it but a couple of wierd things.
Using HP photo paper 4x6 gloss and 8x10 matte.
I printed the same pic three different ways: usb stick, wi fi and laptop attached with usb cable.
I get three different looking pics with the usb stick pic being the best and brightest.
Also the wi fi pic flips the pic so the perforated edge is on the opposite side than the usb stick pic. (no big deal just odd)
Any reasoning for this. I am very impressed with the quality of these pics that are printed but just wondering if the stick will always be the way to print.
While I'm at it I will ask why my business cards done in Publisher 2007 print outside the lines of the cards? This file has been set up a while ago and I am using the same Avery form (not with me at work) so I'm at odds. Is this a Vista thing? I assume my printer is Vista compat and does not need an update as it was bought 10 days ago.......
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I have requested some assistance from a colleague and I am sorry to say, we could not find am HP download for the Photosmart Premier 6.0 and 6.5. The only thing I could find is a support document for those who still have said software; Using HP Photosmart Premier 6.0 and 6.5 in Windows XP.
As for the lighscribe, is your PC the a1630n? I couldn't find the a163n. If you do indeed have the a1630n, you could try the LightScribe System Software Update.
This is the best I could find.

Photosmart Premium All in One Blue screen error B882B1C4

I have recently purchased a Photosmart Premium All in One C309G machine which is connected via a USB cable to the PC. When I try to use it wirelessly it produces a blue screen with an error message B882B1C4 as soon as I switch on the BT hub. HP haven't been able to sort out the problem as I am now in receipt of the 4th replacement . Can anyone suggest a solution please? I have a BT1800HG wireless hub connected with an ethernet cable to my HP PC.

This is posted in your separate thread:
Hey there. I would try a power reset to fix the issue.
Press the Power button ( ) to turn off the product.
NOTE:The product might not turn off after pressing the Power button. Continue to the next step regardless.
Disconnect the power cord from the back of the product.
Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet, and then wait 30 seconds.
Connect the power cord to the electrical outlet.
Connect the power cord to the back of the product.
Press the Power button ( ) to turn on the product.
If this does not solve the issue then the printer will most likely need to be serviced.Hope this helps!

Hp officejet pro 8500 premier all-in-one printer

The above printer is 1 1/2 years old and it has stopped printing. When the printing became light, I installed new print cartridges less than a week ago. Now, after five days, the printer is consistently cleaning the print heads and aligning the print heads and my documents are not being printed. And, what is most frustrating, during all the cleaning and aligning, all of my new ink is gone and I'm receiving a message replace ink cartridges.

Well,
to this is say, "get used to it", or throw it away. Many, Many, Many people have had trouble with this printer.
The following are common and frustrating issues that this printer exhibits on a regular basis:
1. Constant Self-Checking (usually every 20-30 pages of print)
2. Very persistant Printhead Cleaning/Checking, (Every startup and after about 20-30 pages printed).
3. Worn-out printheads (usually within 1,100 to 1,500 pages printed).
4. Paper mis-feeds.
5. Paper jams.
6. Nearly impossible to use once the printer reports ink-depletion.
7. Nearly impossible to use CIS Ink for larger print jobs.
8. Ink and printheads "expire" regardless of when they are placed into service. (get a deal on ink or printheads last year? Too bad, the warranty is already expired, most likely).
In short, this printer is the most EXPENSIVE printer I've ever owned, and the most frustrating to use.
I have just over 2,000 pages of regular text printed matter with very little color, and have already gone through 4 sets of ink, and 2 sets of PrintHeads.
Although it's true that you can leave the unit on, and let it go into standby, you should NOT be punished with constant and time-consuming "self-checking" everytime it's turned on, or prints a handful of pages, BUT, it does NOT appear that HP will be standing behind this printer disaster. AND, to make things worse, they've gone on to redesign it, giving it a different look, and so there are about 6 different models/versions of the OfficeJet Pro 8500.
Anyone needing a reliable print/fax/scan/copy solution should look beyond this printer, because it will leave you wanting more, and spending more than you ever imagined you would have to on a late model printer.ro
What is going on? Why does it just automatically clean and align? I also get alignment failed messages. Any suggestiions?

rammerjammer,
Thank you for bringing this to my attention, your feedback is very important and I want to do my best to help. To answer what is going on, since the printing became light, started cleaning itself constantly, and fails the alignment, the printhead was damaged. Click here to see and use the Limited Warranty for HP Ink Cartridges, Printheads, and Related Supplies. There are many ways to contact HP. The number to call is 1-800-474-6836 for HP and Compaq products for Home & Home Office use. If you no longer have a warranty with the printer you can still use the warranty that comes with the printhead or ink cartridges.
If you have a carepack with the printer that extended the one year warranty then the troubleshooting will be covered along with the printer if the printer needs replacing. Check product warranty here, see HP Out of Warranty Support Options for Select HP Consumer Printers here.
To order a new printhead you can go to HP Sure Supply and enter your printer or go to the HP Parts Store and order the printhead by part number C4900A for the Black and yellow and part number C4901A for the Cyan Magenta. These printheads go by region also so be sure you are using the right region, these were found using the United States region.
The HP Officejet Pro 8500 Premier All-in-One printer has separated the ink cartridges from the printheads. The ink cartridges are on the lower left and the removable print heads are on the carriage inside the printer. The printer goes through a calibration process when turned on that will use ink. Leave the printer on and let it go into stand by mode. This type of printer is energy star efficient and made to calibrate on start up and be left on. Allow the printer to clean or calibrate only if the printer must. If it starts cleaning a lot it may be time to do a little maintenance to the printer (recommend once a month for maintenance). Please see the following links for further details.

Officejet Pro 8500 User Guide
The printer has a duty cycle of 7.5k page/month. The XL cartridges have a composite page yield of 1.4k pages with about a third of the black ink left over. To me it would seem that the printhead should last somewhere in between. This printer was designed to save money on ink compared to the rest of the officejets. I hate that it has been causing so much trouble, hopefully the information I provided will help.

HP Photosmart e-All-in-One - B110a : How can I deactivate wireless?

Hi, everyone.
I just bought HP Photosmart e-All-in-One - B110 and after the installation (which went OK), while trying to get acquainted with the printer and the rest of the functions, I pushed the Wireless button out of curiosity.
Now, every time I switch on B110, the Wireless blue light keeps blinking. Does that mean that it's working?
I do NOT want to activate wireless printing (at least for the time being). I want it deactivated permanently. Is there a way to do this?
Many thanks in advance.
This question was solved.

The blinking blue light means it's looking for a network to connect to. It won't connect to a network if you haven't put any info in the wireless setup. I believe there's an option to turn off the wireless radio in the settings somewhere.

Hp - photosmart e-all-in-one wireless printer cn731a- nothing prints??

HP - Photosmart e-All-in-One Wireless Printer (CN731A)
Went through setup on Windows 7 64-bit, printed the test photo, came out great. Thought everything was good to go. Later, when trying to print a document, it wouldn't print. Computer popped up a message saying "Successfully printed" but when I went to the printer, there was nothing there. I tried running a wireless network test on the printer's screen, and once that page printed with the results, immediately after that, the document I was trying to get finally printed. This was an early Christmas gift for my parents, & my mom just informed me that she tried to print again today, but nothing happened on the printer. I am out of town now and am not able to troubleshoot on my own on the printer like I did a couple days ago so came here for advice.. Any idea what the issue might be? Did I maybe miss a step after doing the test print of the photo? Any ideas would be appreciated!

Hello,
Try the below steps ..
While the printer is ON, Unplug the power cord from back of the printer.
Disconnect all the cables that are connected to the printer.
Wait for 30 seconds.
Plug in only the Power Cord. ( Printer would Power on ).
Try making a standalone Color copy of a document . If it fails to print a copy, then it could either be an issue with the Ink cartridges or the Printer .

How do I add my HP Photosmart e-ALL-IN-ONE D110 series printer to my Android Tablet?

Hi,
Given your ptinter supports print from Android, you need an app called HP ePrint. Please use Google Store to install it:

Problem with installing Solution Center for a HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer - C309g

Hi folks,
I've searched many threads and found some directions to remedy this, tried them and have had no luck.
I'm running Windows 7. All updates are current. When I bought the printer I installed the software (on Windows 7 OS) from the disc and everything was fine. Fast forward a year and Solution Center stopped working.
Uninstalled all HP software to reinstall. I was only able to reinstall HP Update. I was able to load the basic drivers for print and scan, but not the entire software suite including Solution Center. The installation stops abruptly after "installing updates".
I even downloaded and tried "PS_AIO_06_C309g-m_USW_Full_Win_enu_140_175" and got the same result as the original installation disc.
What can I do with my printer (HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer - C309g)???
Thanks,
Alex

Since I installed Mountain Lion operating system, I cannot print. I have a HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-one printer. I get a message when I try to update the software "Server not available The software update service is currently not available."

After installing Mountain Lion, my printer doesn't work. I know it is connected as it shows up, The message is:
"The printer software was installed incorrectly. Please reinstall the software for this printer or conact the anufacturer for assistance."
I used the disk that came with the printer as when I go to the HP site, it tells me that Apple has the drivers needed. I unistalled the printer and reistalled. Previously, I just went to the HP website an everything worked fine for drivers, program, etc. I never had to use the CD that came with the printer. My printer is: HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-one, it is wireless, but I even took the computer and plugged it into the printer to make sure that everything was connected. Can someone please help me to get this working,
Thank you,

Hey Spider! First off welcome to the forum.
I would recommend removing all the ink cartridges, unplugging the USB cable from the computer that connects to the printer, and then shutting the printer off completely by removing the power cord. Then restart your computer. Turn the printer back on but leave it disconnected from the computer. After it has finished its power on cycle go ahead and insert the ink cartridges back into the printer and be sure to seat them properly.
After you have all the cartridges back in the printer properly then connect it to the computer. See if this resolves the issue. If not post back with any findings.
Thanks,
SeanS

On the View tab, in the Color/Grayscale group, click Black and White.
