Printing all my photos red

filled all color inks and still printing re photos

Hey @trish104,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you're experiencing red print quality issues when printing photos to your HP Photosmart 6520 e-All-in-One Printer from your Windows 8 Computer. I would like to work with you today with resolving this print quality issue.
First, I'm going to have you print a standalone Print Quality Diagnostics report from your printer on plain white paper to see if this is a hardware issue on your printer or if this red quality issue is being caused by a setting on your computer.
How to Print a Print Quality Diagnostics report:
1. Load plain white U.S. letter or A4 size paper in the tray.
2. On the printer control panel, touch the Settings icon ().
3. Touch Tools, and then touch Print Quality Report. The printer prints the test page.
If the report prints perfectly: Than this issue is either caused by a setting on your computer or any photo paper that you may be printing your photos on. If you're printing photos on glossy or matte photo paper, can you try to print the report on that paper type to check the quality. If the report still prints perfectly, than this is a setting issue on your computer.
What program are you printing from on your computer that is causing the red photo quality?
Can you try to print the photo from a different photo viewer program on your computer to see if the issue still occurs?
If the report prints with print quality issues: Can you please click here to run through the step-by-step print quality troubleshooting document.
Please let me know if the steps I've provided resolve your quality issue. Should you still be experiencing issues, be sure to respond to this post with the print result of the Print Quality Diagnostics report and what program you're printing from on your computer. I look forward to hearing from you. Good luck!

My printer prints all my photos red. Everything else prints fine. It printed photos fine before.

Does anyone know why this would happen?

Hi - Not sure which printer you have, so I'll give you a few general troubleshooting steps.
- Make sure that none of the ink cartridges are empty. If the cyan or yellow run out, you'll get a definite red/pink hue to the printouts.
- Verify that the paper type setting in whatever application you're using, matches the paper type you're using. From personal experience, I've seen red hues to everything when I've had the wrong paper type selected.
You might also run through the steps in this document to help narrow down the problem.
Hope that helps.

How do you print all the photos in your flagged file? I don't want to make these photos into a new event.

I want to order several photos. I have flagged them and there is no option to select all and order the prints. I don't want to create a new event with these photos, as I want them in their original event files.
How are multiple photos ordered/exported for printing?

Go to your Flagged Photos Smrt Album on the Left.
Command - a will select All
Then File -> New -> Album

How to apply ICC profiles on all the photos in preset before printing.   and user preset

Hi,
hope someone can point me to the right direction.. I have 2 questions about ICC profiles and settings in lightroom.
1.) I found that many photos that I have is a little two blue. There are thousands of photos. I would like to know if there is a way in Lightroom to "Autobatch" the changes to all those photos.
The changes are under "white balance" -> "temp" -> (need to increase by 2)
2.) I will send out the photos to print . According to the photo stores tech, I can apply their ICC (printer/paper) profiles before sending the files to them. So, it will have better match how the photos come out.
Last time I printed some photos with them, many of the come out too dark.   But it looks fine on screen, and a little too red if I use my own inkject printer. I hope I correct this.
If it cannot be done in lightroom, it can only be done with Photoshop, please let me know. I will try to use other computer with PS installed.   just let me know the steps.
Thanks in advance.

I would sugget two UI changes:
1. The enable / disable is confusing - the toggle switch to turn it on, changes the button label to "Auto Sync" to indicate that it is on. But, this is highly un-conventional and confusing - usually a button label indicates what will happen when you click, not that it is on, and clicking it will actually turns it off - bass-freakin'-ackwards if you ask me!... (Add to it the toggle switch tooltip is the same in both cases - indicating that the switch will enable it, when actually, in one case it will enable, but in the other case it will disable...)
2. Some simple UI difference that you can't ignore but doesn't bug the ship out of you either, when auto-sync is on: maybe a red-tint to the slider draggers or something...
Summary: Once you use something other than the button label to indicate Auto-Sync is on, then you can change the button label to read "Auto Sync Off". And if the On indication has an "ommi-present" quality to it - so much the better.

Officejet pro 8000 wireless will not print from windows photo viewer. all other diagnostics ok.

OS is Windows 7 Home Premium x 64. All functions and printing are ok with this unit, excepting for printing through Windows Photo Viewer. Have latest software, drivers, etc., and all HP software and hardware diagnostic tools check out ok.
Checked Windows event log, and get Event 350, PrintService - Document failed to print and was deleted because of corruption in the spooled file. The associated driver is: . Try printing the document again.
There is no additional info on this event listed in the Microsoft TechNet Events and Errors Message Reporting Center
When this happens, all of the lights on the printer flash very rapidly.
To correct, I clear the queue through Explorer, Troubleshoot, and unplug printer to reset.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks

FYI, I got this to work by treating my printer as a wired printer, even though it allegedly has wireless functionality. Luckily, my ohter devices can print to it wirelessly. At least I don't need to replace my printer just yet...

Color PDFs print all red

I am using Acrobat 8 Standard edition on Vista, and every time I attempt to print a color file on an HP Color Laserjet printer, it prints all red. The printer's installed correctly, attached via USB, and prints fine from other applications. It's only PDFs and text prints black and the only color that will print other than black is red. Can someone help please???

i They used to. All the smart support people were laid off last year.
Oi, that's only half true.
Marc, if it's only happening with one file it could be something in the PDF, but first i would see if you can print as image.

C410a PhotoSmart Printer All Of A Sudden Prints Photos With Reddish Hue

Have not been able to get a definitive solution for this problem. Print cartridges are new and full, print heads aligned and clean. Test printouts are perfect. All non-photo related color printing is great. Only photos are printing with a soft reddish hue to them. Photos printed in normal settings on normal everyday copy paper look pretty close to the monitor, but everything goes reddish when using photo settings "best" or "maximum dpi" on the 4x6 glossy photo paper or the 8.5x11 matte finish paper.
This must be the mystery of the ages because I have never seen any solutions offered beyond the usual cartridge tool management stuff. This is definitely something else that may have changed with the W7 upgrade or Nero upgrade.

I've heard of people having a similar type of problem when printing photos from Photoshop, and in both cases it ended up being a problem with their Photoshop settings, and not the printer itself.

I have an I pad, hooked to a wireless printer , I need to print my bank statements. I know you have to snapshot it first, but it is printing on 4x6 photo paper is all. I need it to print on regular 8x10 paper so it will print the whole page and

How can I print off my I pad for bank statements on reg paper not 4x6 photo paper?

How nice of you to wait three whole minutes for an answer.
I don't know what you mean by "I have to snapshot it first". Can you explain what you mean? If you're making a screenshot and printing from your photo application, you're going about things in a very odd way. You should be using the Share - Print icon from whatever app (Safari?) your bank statement is in.

My problem is that after printing the first photo or picture, when I come to print a second, both the Colour Management and Epson Colour Controls are greyed out and showing No Colour Management

I have recently purchased a Mac computer (updated to Maverick) to go with my Epson Stylus Photo RX500 printer which has given excellent service with my old Windows computer. However, when trying to print pictures or photos via Photoshop Elements 11, the best results I can get are using the Colour Management and Epson Colour controls in the printing options box.
My problem is that after printing the first photo or picture, when I come to print a second, both the Colour Management and Epson Colour Controls are greyed out and showing No Colour Management, The only way I can reset the controls is to shut down the printer and computer and restart.
Could there may be a setting somewhere that I need to adjust please? I have been in touch with Epson and they say that the Epson Colour controls are part of the Photoshop Elements software but a post on the Adobe forum brought no results and I am unable to contact Adobe.
<Edited by Host>

Hello Garry. Thanks for the reply. I guess I should have used a different title from "How do I post a question?" That should come after trying to resolved the colour settings first. However, to answer your question, after experimenting with all the different settings in Photoshop Elements and Epson software, I now start with PSE11 Colour settings then click "no colour management" then after clicking Print, I choose "More Options/Colour Management/Colour Handling/Printer Manages Colour" then I choose "Page Setup/Layout/Colour Matching" which then shows Epson Colour Controls but I also choose "Layout/Colour Management" which then shows "Colour Controls/Mode" I then of course choose an Epson printer profile depending on the paper I am using. I get good results but as I said, the Colour Matching and Colour Controls are then greyed out. Hope that makes sense.

How do I get a text box to expand by user and print all text?

I am creating a form in Adobe Live Cycle Designer that was converted from a Word file that contains many text boxes. I would like the text box to expand to accomodate each user's text in edit mode. When the form is printed - all the entered text should print. Even though I set the text box to allow multiple lines, all the user sees when they print is a box with just a couple of lines and a red + in the corner indicating that there is more text. There must be a work around? I am not very proficient in this software so would love someone to give me the necessary steps. Thanks.

It is a dynamic form feature available in Designer. To get more information, ask in the LiveCycle forum.

My hard drive that is sync to my ipad crashed! Good thing is all my photos were transferred to my ipad for viewing - now my quesiton is how do I back up my ipad on another computer without losing my pictures? can I back up my ipad on a external hard drive

My hard drive on my computer crashed! This is the computer my ipad was sync with! All my photos of my three girls are on the ipad, but how do I get them transferred to either an external hard drive or to another computer - or just have them all printed - nearly 1000 photos!
Also, can I back up my ipad with an external hard drive? If I try to sync to a new computer it will erase everything I currently have on the ipad , correct?
Thanks for your help - I am worried if I don't do something quick, my ipad will crash too!

Right. You didn't read the post, you only read the title.
The title came from an earlier step in the process when I was posing a question to the systen.
The pertinent part of the question is "How to I back up documents that are stored in iCloud"
That the destination for the backup is NOT my internal HDD should be clear from the rest of the post.
And frankly, even if that is where I want to back up to, that would at least give me two copies, at least giving me one duplicate of the stuff on iCloud.
So please stop wasting my time if you can't answer the actual question: How do I backup content that is stored in iCloud. The destination of the backup is irrelevant.

I imported a COMPLETED book project into Aperture 3, only to discover that the resolution of all the photos has been reduced to totally unacceptable levels

I imported a COMPLETED book project into Aperture 3, only to discover that the resolution of all the photos has been reduced to totally unacceptable levels. Any easy solution?
Steps:
1. I finished an Aperture 2 (Two) book project and tried to submit it to Apple for printing. At that point I learned (belatedly, obviously) that Apple no longer accepts books from Aperture 2. I don't know how I would have known to even ask if Aperture 2 had been sunsetted as far as book projects go.
2. So I tried to download Aperture 3 ($79.99), only to be told that I couldn't download Aperture 3.5.1 because I was still running OSX 10.8.x. So I read current reviews for OSX 10.9.x, and ...
3. Downloaded and installed the current operating system (about a 3-hours process for me). OSX 10.9.2, here we are!
4. Then I returned to the Apple Store, found, and purchased Aperture 3. [For safety's sake, it would sure be nice to have a .dmg file I could copy and file away. I lost a perfectly legal and good copy of Adobe's Photoshop Elements 3 years ago because I wasn't smart enough to make a safety copy, and when my iMac crashed (fried electronic components), I was left with a copy of the software that wouldn't run, and couldn't be verified as legit.]
5. When Aperture 3 finished installing, I found and imported my COMPLETED Aperture 2 book project, which import seemed to proceed nominally -- the right number of pages, the right content on those pages, that sort of thing -- until I started looking more carefully at the pictures themselves. All of them, about 300 of them, have been imported into an Aperture 3 book project in such a reduced resolution that they are fuzzy at the size the book will be printed. Screen-capture of just one example (at 100% viewer setting):
I don't know what to do at this point to correct the problem, short of going through the entire book project, copy the custom captions (since those go away when you "delete" photo content), delete the photo, re-insert the photo, and paste back the custom caption. Lather, rinse, repeat - ~300 times! An estimated 2-3 hours of additional work.
Or does anyone in this community know either (1) that I did something wrong in the Aperture 2-to-Aperture 3 import (I don't recall being offered any options or choices in the process); or (2) that there is a wholesale one-step solution to my problem?
BTW, I tried to edit my "Product" info, but OSX 10.9.x is not in the pick list. I am running OSX 10.9.2
<Re-Titled By Host>

Frank, thanks for your note. I wrote "COMPLETED" because I had gone to a lot of effort to get the content of the book precisely as I wanted it. I would fully expect to see my level of effort and care matched by functional competence in Aperture 3 to render the book the way I created it. Too much to ask?
And yes, I upgraded the Aperture 2 Library first. [Not ALL my tens of 000s of pix, because I use Lightroom selectively for photo editing. But Yes to the Aperture 2 Library.] That step took a number of minutes, but seemed to work fine (no error messages of any kind).
Then I opened the existing book project in Aperture 3, which followed some "magic-box" process that took a minute or so. As I said, when that step was done, by all appearances the book was ready to submit for printing - until I examined the photos a little more closely. You did see the blurry example I included, didn't you? That is what each and every photo looks like.
Text-box content appears to have been rendered pertectly, for the record (including captions).
So, ... is this result something you have heard of before? Do you know of a one-step solution? Or am I looking at an extended picture-by-picture fix?

When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page.

When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page. I don't want to have to check off an additional 5 or 6 attributes each time I print out contact information. Is there a way to change the default setting for printing lists, so it is not just "phone," "photo," and "job title?"

I have a user who wants to do this same thing. I did not find any way either to default the attributes to anything other than what you see the first time. Seems like such a trivial thing, hard to believe they do not allow it. I did find a program for this called iDress but I can't seem to download it from any links on the Internet. Not sure if it is free or not, but it was recommended by a link on the Mac support site.
