Photosmart Premium C10a pictures are automatically corrected?

This printer is brand new so all new printer cartridges are installed. I have been trying to print pictures that have vibrant colors and the printer (I'm assuming) is changing the colors such as lime green to aqua. It also is bumping up all the colors so dark pinks are red, lighter greens are darker, etc. How do I turn this "feature" off?

Oops, it's a C310a.
Also, operating system is Windows 7.

Hp Photosmart 7510 keeps going offline. Any advice? Have tried everything I can find online about it but the answers are all dated 2008. Surely Apple has a way of correcting this by now. I have IMAC 10.6.8. It did this with my hp photosmart premium a

I have tried everything I can find online to correct this. Nothing works and all I can find online is dated 2008. Surely Apple has found a cure for this problem by now. This happened with my hp Photosmart Premium c309a as well. I thought it was a printer problem but It's happening now with the 7510 that is only a week old. And please, if you have a cure, don't explain in high tech computer language. I'm ok with the computer but not that up on high tech stuff. Thanks.

It is connected wirelessly. The other printer was connected with a USB. Getting it to print again---usually by just turning printer off and back on again. This usually results in getting 1 page printed. Then I have to do it again. I have deleted printer and reinstalled. I have changed IP from automatic to manual. I unplugged printer for a short time (1-2 minutes) and plugged back in. I have restarted both IMAC and printer after each process. This is really frustrating and time consuming, driving me nuts.

HP Photosmart Premium all-in-one C410a. The photos are coming out dark, what is happening?

The photos are dark. I am sending the photos wireless from my Toshiba Netbook NB205-N325BL with Window 7 Starter to my HP Photosmart Premium all-in-one C410a. The photos are dark when i send the photo from my iPhone 3Gs too. I have changed out the ink cartridges to see if that was the problem since the ink cartridges were low.
I have recently purchase this printer. I recently had a Photosmart All-in-one C7280 and was very happy with it until it stopped working with Win 7.
Your help is appreciated.
thank you,
Paula

Laura,
There are quite a few trouble shooting steps in my [FAQ|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2658560&tstart=0]. But to cut to the chase, first make sure you can run one of the Apps on the Printer and its getting content. Then make sure the firmware is the latest (Tools->Web->Automatic Updates->Check for Product Updates). Then power cycle everything (Router, Printer, iOS device). If it's still not working, more likely then not its a problem with your wireless router and Bonjour, so post back what brand of router you have, the model, and how your network is configured.
Just trying to help.

HP Photosmart premium not printing correct colors or contrast on photo paper.

My HP Photosmart Premium does not print correct colors or contrast level on photographs using photo paper. This happens with using most any application and setting the paper type to one of the photo papers... By using MS PhotoAlbum and selecting the photo tray then forcing "regular paper", I can get a somewhat decent print (this trick only works with MS PhotoAlbum). When I setup to any of the "photo paper" types, I do not get correct colors or contrast levels (even if the print preview looks good).
I have the same issue with 8.5 x 11 inch photopaper. Unless I select "regular paper" as the paper type, I get incorrect color and contrast (even if the preview looks good). The ICC "Color Profiles" look to be OK (at least the titles are correct).
Anyone have any ideas?

Try the troubleshooting steps in this page. My bet would be the Photo cartridge (the black with the bow tie symbol) is out of ink. This is only used when photo paper is selected, for plain paper printing the regular black cartridge is used.

You should be importing pics to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera. Nothing should only be on your iphone. You should keep everything on your computer.
If you have failed to do this, then they are gone.
You can try restoring from backup.

Using LR 5 to make slideshow and images in the preview are correct but when I play the actual slideshow the pictures are a lot smaller than what they should be. Help!

I'm making a slideshow with Lightroom 5. I'm using a 2014 Macbook Pro. Everything works except when I play the actual slideshow the pictures are smaller than what they should be. But the preview is showing the correct photo size. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it? Thanks!

Hey ronfya
Did you ever get any feedback on this? I haven't read the Technicolor link yet. I was just trying to figure out why my stuff comes out darker on Vimeo. Could this be because FCPX is displaying it to brightly?

Try resetting your iPhone. Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.
On a separate point, you may wish to consider updating your iPhone if you're still on iOS 5.0.1 as your post says.

HP Photosmart Premium C310a Printer paper alignment and paper feed problem.

Standard Info:
HP Photosmart Premium C310a Inkjet All-in-one Printer.
Windows 7 Home Premium
No reported errors messages except for paper jams.
No changes were made to the system before the problems began.
My Info:
I am very proficient with computers and electronics. I would first like to say that this printer has very vibrant inks and its ColorSmart/sRGB ICC profile is pure magic. The high DPI ratings have turned out to be accurate so far and the printer prints beautiful images.
Problems:
The problem I am having is with the printers paper feed rollers. They are not scrolling the paper through the printer accurately and consistantly. There have also been two paper jams when using multipurpose everyday paper. When printing high res artwork using HP Advanced Photo Paper I was using HP Photosmart Essentials to create an 8"x10" picture on the 8.5"x11" paper and the first 35-40 prints came out accurately but then, before any paper jams or other problems the 8x10 pictures began to not center correctly on the paper. Then the top of the 8x10 picture started slanting to the right on the paper and extending too close to the right edge of the paper. The entire 8x10 picture is no longer printing 8x10 (the left side of the picture is just over 8" tall and the right side of the picture is printing just under 8", same thing with the top and bottom edges of the image) and is not centering properly on the paper. I just had my second paper jam last night which I clicked the "cancel print" button on the front of the printer touch display to eject the paper. Immediately after, everything began printing very close to the left edge of the paper and prints at an angle down the sheet no matter what it is that I print or what paper it is printed on. I have tried using the auto alignment feature on the printer several times and it does not help.
Questions:
Is this printer purchased on 09/25/2011 from hp.com (with no extended warranty) still under a regular warranty?
If I send it in for repairs will HP be able to fix these problems?
Is there any way that I can adjust the scrollers myself to fix the problem?
Is the new C510a more reliable than the C310a in this field?
I need a backup printer for my art business, I would like to purchase an HP C510a, but am concerned I will have the same problems with the new one.
If anyone can help, please respond. I cannot go on with these problems any longer.
Thank you for your time,
Nanette

Thank you for your quick response Bob. Your answer was helpful, but did not solve my problem. I have cleaned the printer exactly as your response has suggested, but there has been no change, and I was not able to find any dirt, scum, dust, or anything at all wrong with the rollers.
Here are a few pictures of some 8"x10" pictures that I just printed on 8.5"x11" HP Advanced Photo Paper:
These 8"x10" images are supposed to be centered on the paper, but are FAR from centered or dimensionally accurate to 8"x10".
This last image shows really well how the top of the 8"x10" image slants downward from left to right as well as approaches too close to the right edge of the paper.
Is this a problem that I can fix on my own?
If I send the printer to HP for repairs will they be able to fix this problem or will they just clean the printer scrollers and send it back thinking it is fixed?
I really need help with this problem, because right now, the printer is not useable.
Thank you for your help.

Photosmart Premium C350g how to tell wireless working?

Installing on a MacBook Pro hooked up by usb to new printer - Configuring the printer, no network showed up - even with that network visible to 3 other computers that are farther away from the router (the router is a Time Capsule). I have read through a number of threads, all seem to indicate that I should be able to see the printer's presence or it should see my network, but I can find no indication that this is true. If I wire the printer to the router, it is there and configurable, but still will not see my network (after pulling the wired connection, restarting the printer, and using the panel to turn radio on). In short, if the radio just didn't work in this printer, I would be in the same boat. How can one tell that the radio works? I haven't seen entries in the router log that would suggest it tried to connect.

Thank you for the reply - I appreciate the help. I wrote that first post at 1:30 AM, so first a correction - it is a Photosmart Premium AIO, model C309g.
The blue 802.11 light is on when it is trying setup, or when turned on from the control panel. The wireless test page shows it is on but not connected. The printer shows up on the router when connected by ethernet cable, and I can look at wireless config settings in a web browser at that point. I can set it up by USB but it doesn't see the network, either when it searches, or when it accepts the connection parameters my laptop is using successfully. I tried setting it up again through the ethernet cable/web browser route, then disconnecting the cable and changing to wireless, but it still does not see the network.
The router (Apple Time Capsule) I am using is advertising its existence, and shows up on 802.11n and 802.11g devices (laptops, iPhones, my neighbors can see it). In addition, HP's tech specs on this printer say it has 802.11n wireless, so I don't think the g/n issue is in play. What I am looking for is a way to confirm that the printer's wireless is actually working when I can't get it to see a network everything else has no problem seeing. There is no Mac address filtering on the router; I have used WEP and WPA/WPA2 setups for the router, no luck. Can I set the printer to broadcast an ad-hoc network ID or something so that it would show up to other devices, just to show that it is actually on the air? Should it show up in the router's log files in any event? I can look for a Mac address from it, which I have from the config page, but I don't see it.
I may have missed something in the settings/connectivity area, but I don't know what that would be. At this point I am trying to eliminate the possibility that the 802.11 radio in the printer is faulty.

Photosmart premium all in one wont print from SD card

Photosmart premium reads my SD card, and says 398 photos found, then it displays photos for a second or two and then display reverts back to View and Print without giving me tha opportunity to select and print pictures. I performed a power reset and that did not help.

To make sure the printer is reset properly, do these steps:
1. Unplug the power from the back of the printer.
2. Press and hold '3' and '#' buttons.
3. Plug power back in while holding those buttons.
4. Release buttons after about 10 seconds.
Try reading the card again. If it does not read, then try reading a different card. It may have something to do with the individual card if another card reads correctly.

Powering Down HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m

Product: HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m
Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit
No Error Message
I Use my HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m printer or scanner and when I'm finished I go to power down or shut down the printer it will not respond. After several attempts I end up unplugging the power supply for 10 seconds and plug it in where HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m powers up automatically and then I'm able to power it down. This is not described in any areas of FAQs or found to have been posted any where that I can find. How do I resolve this problem?

is anyone able to help with this WON'T PRINT problem???????

My HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m printer frequently gives me false "low ink" readings

My HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m printer frequently gives me false "low ink" readings, which wouldn't be a big deal except that unlike other printers I've had, instead of just printing as best it can on low ink, it refuses to print at all.
I know the readings are false:
(a) because I've only recently refilled the ink - (since this started I write down when I refilled the ink and note the number of print jobs, which can be as low as 10 and the false readings can occur) and
(b) my only work around so far is to turn the printer off and on until the false readings stop, it then shows the correct ink levels and does print, but his can often take 5 or 6 times of "off and on." Very annoying.
Questions:
Has anyone else experienced this?
If so, is there a fix?
If no fix, is there a way to change the printer default configuration so it will print anyway -with low ink - instead of simply refusing to print?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you

Maybe there is some ink on the connections to the cartridges. This document may help with checking those areas after you installed new cartridges last time:

HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m (Fails or SLOW to Print Wirelessly)

My printer has usually worked until recently (past couple months). I have re-installed the driver several times, uninstalled the HP software, re-installed the driver only... and still the same symptoms occur.
OS: Windows 7
WiFi Router: Linksys E4200
Printer: HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m
STEPS TAKEN:
I begin a continuous "ping" of the printer from my PC and my ipad, to ensure I'm not losing network connectivity.
Pings are received on both pc and ipad without issue..
I print a "test page" from the printer properties screen.
Pings are dropped continuously...on both PC and ipad with one or two sporatic ones received with extremely high latency (29165 ms).
Printer sometimes fails to print the document or the document takes 3 or more minutes to print.
I believe it is an issue with the wireless network device on the printer. I was hoping a firmware would fix it. Can you advise me as to what the problem may be, where should I focus my troubleshooting?
I did run a HP Print/Scan Doctor tool, and it did say I had a "port mismatch" and that I needed to reboot my PC. I rebooted my PC, re=ran, and still the same "Port Mismatch" error comes up. So.. that leads me to believe it is an issue w/ my PC...but I can't find any thing that seems to be wrong w/ the port settings. Currently it is set on my printers hostname address, RAW, Port 9100.

Are you installing and reinstalling the printer from the CD? Just to establish a clean baseline lets try a full uninstallation/ reinstallation from the drivers available from the HP website.
First if you use a USB cord, make sure to remove it. Do not plug it back in until the software directs you to. Then go through the Devices and Printers, Programs and Features and Device Manager folders and insure that all copies, files, and programs related to the printer are removed. Then as directed, restart the computer.
In the START menu type "%temp%" and press ENTER. Here I want you to press Ctrl+A and hit DELETE. Some of the files will not allow you to delete them, skip those files and delete the majority that allows it.
Then follow this link to download the full feature software and drivers for the printer (make sure to match your correct OS):
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=3793676&
Install that and let me know the result!
Have a great day!
