Printing photos on HP8600 Pro

It is easy to scan photos from the flatbed, but how to I get the printer to increase the size of the oirginal photo to a desired level?

Hi,
After you have scanned a photo and it has created an image file for that photo, you can simply print that image file to whatever size you want by selecting the photo print size through whatever application you are using to print.
Whatever device you are using to print will have an option to choose the size of print.

I cannot print photos on mac book because I need themes

Cannot print photos with macbook pro. Get message stating that I need themes?? Please help, this is a new computerand it's very frustrating.

If this is with iPhoto then you need to reinstall it:
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List there.
For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.

How do I take 300 dpi photos with my iPhone 4s? And how do I export them to my MacBook Pro at 300 dpi to use as I want to print photos.

How do I take 300 dpi photos with my iPhone 4s?
And how do I export them to my MacBook Pro at 300 dpi to use as I want to print photos.
I have been using the standard camera on the iPhone and require 300 dpi to create photo books as the photos are resized according the layout.
Your time and assistance in appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks Tonefox!
After looking at a few of the links I found a mathematical equation that assisted me.
Inches = Pixels/DPI
eg: 3 inches = 300 pixels/100 DPI
Using this equation and the fact that iPhone 4s takes photos that are 3264 x 2448 I was able to work out the largest print I could make with 300 DPI.
Width 3264 pix/ 300 DPI = 10.88 inches
Height 2448 pix/ 300 DPI = 8.16 inches
Therefore, the largest print (with 300DPI) I can make of these photos is 10.88 inches x 8.16 inches.
Which is great!
So is it critical for me to change the dpi in say photoshop or does it not matter as long as I don't go above the 10.88 inches x 8.16 inches?
From what I can gather the smaller I resize the photo the higher the DPI and the bigger I stretch the photo the lower the DPI?
Further clarification will be much appreciated. Thanks

HP Photosmart Pro B8350 always prints photos in mirror image

I am having a issue with my photos always coming out with the reverse of the image.
I have checked the defalut options for the printer mirror image is not selected.
I also make sure that I do not select mirror image when going to print.
The OS I am running is XP home and it has all the updates available from Windows as far as I know.
Please help me get my images to print correct!
It is driving me crazy!
Thanks
Don

Update:
I have managed to define this problem more clearly. This is very reproducible, not random. My system: HP B8850 printer on Windows XP-Pro, USB. There is a drastic color failure under certain settings. I first noticed this when printing a photo of a brilliant pink flower - the flower prints as white, slightly yellow, with no pink at all. I can produce this result consistently under these conditions: 1) 4x6 or 5x7 paper sizes (I have not tried all possible sizes.) 2) under Photoshop CS3, setting color to be managed by CS3. 3) In the printer preferences dialog, choosing paper type HP Advanced Photo Glossy, or HP Pro Satin (I have not tried all the paper types.)
Printing 8.5x11 or larger: No Problem. Let the printer manage color: No Problem. Choose Fiber Gloss, or Other Photo Paper: No Problem.
My workaround for now is to have CS3 manage the color, selecting the ICC profile of the paper I'm using, but in the printer preferences dialog, choose Other Photo Paper. This produces slightly inferior color rendition, but I am not as demanding in 4x6 prints as I am in large prints for wall display. Nevertheless, I would like see this issue fixed in a driver update ASAP.

How to print photos from the MacBook Pro on the HP4580 printer

I cannot seem to print photos in iPhotos on my MacBook Pro on my HP4580 all-in-one printer?

Make sure you've cropped your photo in iPhoto to the same size as the paper size selected if you want a borderless print and have selected the same print size.
Have you searched the HP website for drivers for the HP4580 printer or installed the latest HP printer drivers offered by Apple? HP Printer Drivers v. 2.13 for OS X

Epson pro 3880 printer will not print photos with mountain lion

epson stylus pro printer will not print photos using mountain lion ??

The drivers that come in the box with the printer are already obsolete by the time it is placed into service. If Software update does not send you new epson drivers, check the epson web site.
Remove [-] button and re-Add [+] button the printer after the driver update.

HP Envy 7640 won't print photos from photo tray using MacBook Pro

My new HP Envy 7640 will not print photo's from the photo tray. The photo tray option is not highlighted to choose it. I have restarted both the HP and MacPro several time. What am I missing?

Hello @MEMEF,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I would like to work with you today with resolving the Photo Tray printing option issue that you're experiencing when printing from your Mac OS X computer to your HP ENVY 7640 e-All-in-One Printer. Due to the lack of Photo Tray options there is a chance that your HP Envy print driver is not being properly utilized on the Mac Computer. However, in order for me to provide you with accurate support on the Mac I do need to confirm what version of the Mac Operating System you're using?
In the meantime, I am going to have you check on your Mac to ensure that the HP Envy driver is selected and not the Apple AirPrint driver. The AirPrint driver is a generic driver offered by Apple to allow for basic printing ability. Because it is not a Full Feature driver that comes with your printer you may not have all the printing features that you should have on your printer. To check the driver please follow the steps below.
1. Click the Apple menu, and then click System Preferences.
2. Click Print & Scan, and then check if the name of your printer displays in the Printers list.
3. If your printer is already listed, remove and re-add the printer to confirm communication with the Mac. Click the name of your printer, click the minus sign (), and then delete the printer
4. Click the plus sign (), click Add Printer or Scanner, click the name of your printer
5. Click the Use or Print Using box, and then select the name of your printer in the pop-up menu. Ensure that you have the HP Envy driver selected and not the AirPrint.
6. Click Add to add the printer to the list.
- Source
The options may differ on your Mac if you're running an earlier Operating System.
Once the correct driver has been verified as added in, please try printing to your Photo Tray again.
Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. Should the issue persist, be sure to include your Operating System in your next post. Best of luck!

Printing wirelessly on officejet pro 8600 plus

I have recently purchased an e printer (Officejet pro 8600 plus). I have set it up on my laptop as well as mobile phone. I have printed photos from my phone, emails from my phone, emails from my laptop, word documents and excel documents from my laptop. It will only print sometimes. I think it may have to do with the printer going to sleep. On my mobile phone, I get a message saying ePrint job delayed because the printer is turned OFF or not connected to Internet. Well, it is on. When I actually go to the room where the printer is located, if I touch the screen and press Apps, sometimes, the printer says "connection error", unable to connect to the server. Other times when I have done this, it does make the connection. It seems that if I wake up the printer, I can eventually get something to print. But that defeats my purpose of the wireless capability. Can you help?

I will need some more information in order to help out. What make and model of router do you have? Does it ever fail regular wireless jobs sent from the computer to the printer? Or is it just ePrint jobs that it fails/delays? Also what is the IP address for the printer?

HP Print Software for MacBook Pro and Windows 7 gone awry on HP OfficeJet Pro 8600

Almost one year ago today I wrote a post about my first problem with HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911. Today I write my last.
I have an HP OJP 8600, with option Tray 2 included, and auto feed included. My system test computers are:
1. Apple MacBook Pro, OS X 9.5, HP software is the only 3rd party software.
2. HP Laptop, Windows 7.
The OJP wireless radio gave up, so I cannot run it wirelessly. It is connected by ethernet to my router. All five of my computers can use. All of the functions of the printer are usable. For example: it prints, it scans, it copies, it faxes. All functions working. My problem is with the HP software download to the Apple and to the HP Laptop.
I would like to be able to use all of the feature settings when I print. But alas, I cannot. Both the Apple and the HP Laptop have a similar appearing window that opens when you choose to print something. In theory, you are supposed to be able to control a range of paper types and quality, print type and quality, and (in my case with the two trays) what tray to use to select the paper.
I regret neither of the computers perform these functions. And all of the mistakes that I find on the Apple computer I find on the HP Laptop Windows 7 computer.
I don't have the time to test every combination. But I think the table below will help you get an idea of what the problem is with the software that HP sends offshore for maintenance.
The results of the paper quality selection, the print quality selection, and the tray availability are as follows:
PAPER PRINT QUALITY TRAY AVAILABILITY
Plain Paper
Plain Paper DRAFT/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2
Thick Paper DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
HP Bright DRAFT/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2
InkJet
Other DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
HP Bright DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray   Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
Specialty
Other DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray   Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
Card   DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
Brochure
HP Brochure DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray   Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
Other DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray   Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
In summary the new HP Print software for Apple and Windows 7 computers has identical programming mistakes on both operating systems. Under no circumstances can I use the MAX DPI setting.
The user cannot use the features that are built in to the HP software because the paper selections override the locked tray, the print quality, and the unusually small list of HP selection of papers.
It is time to invoke my warrenty rights. There are too many systemic problems with the software and the device. I don't have any more time to act as an unpaid system test analyst for HP.
Who do I contact to use my warrenty before it runs out in a few weeks?

Hi,
Those are not programming mistakes, but those are limitations of the product, please check the printer specifications below:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02858465&tmp_track_link=ot_faqs/top_issues/en_u...
As you may find under Paper-handling specifications > Paper tray capacities, Tray 2 only support Plain Paper.
Maximum DPI is only only supported on Photo Paper, therefore those limitations are applicable.. these limitations are also listed on the Printing Specifications section above, Maximum DPI is listed as 4800 by 1200 dpi:
Color print resolution: HP enhanced photo quality with Vivera inks (up to 4800 by 1200 dpi Optimized on HP Premium Plus photo papers with 1200 x 1200 input dpi)
As well that can be find listed within the Print photos on photo paper or the Print borderless documents sections, you may simply search for Maximum DPI within the user guide as a reference:
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03026243.pdf
Those are not an issues with the printer but those expected limitations fully meet the product specification.

Cannot start HP Printing Software (HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910a)

Hello,
When I doubleclick on the HP Software icon on my desktop strange behavior results. Nothing opens and my computer behaves erratically. After quite a while I get the following error messages:
instancefinderdlg.exe
werfault.exe
Then, after this - my computer sort of reboots all by itself. But not a full reboot - it just goes back to the initial logon screen and I re-enter my Windows password, and the desktop shows.
I am running Windows 8.1 Pro (64 bit). The printer is set up to operate wirelessly.
After doubleclicking on the HP Software icon and waiting a long time for the software to open, as I mentioned above, one thing I tried was a ctrl-alt-del and opened Task Manager. I checked the services running and there was multiple instances of an HP service running (I don't recall the name but there seemed to be dozens of the same HP service running).
I also completely uninstalled all HP software using Revo Uninstaller, and then re-installed the complete software / driver package for the OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910a - but this did not make any difference; exactly the same problems ocurred again.
This has only happened in recent days. Prior to this I was able to doubleclick on the HP software icon and the software opened normally and I was able to check settings, ink levels, etc. Interestingly, the printer still seems to function well - I can print from Word, print photos from Lightroom, etc. I just can't open the HP Printer Software from my desktop.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
This question was solved.

Hello again,
I tried the first part but it did not work.
However, the second more detailed part (with the 9 steps), appears to have worked! I now can double-click on the HP Printer icon and everthing functions as it used to previously.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you very, very much! You have been very patient with me as a customer and very persistent and determined to find a solution. Over the course of several days you suggested various possible solutions. When something did not work, you did not give up but continued to search for a solution. You really are a very fine example of what customer service should be. You deserve a big raise! Thanks again.

Drivers for hp8600 pro and mountain lion

I have iMac with Mountain Lion and just purchased HP8600 Pro printer. Tried to load the disc for drivers and told me that it is not supported. Please help...

Yesterday I received a message that an update was needed for Java and Adobe Flash. Java updated just fine but when I tried to install the Flash update I kept getting an error message. I did a permissions repair and tried to restart the computer but then the computer would only come up into recovery mode.
In recovery mode I ran another permissions repair and a disk verify. The disk verify showed a couple problems with my SSD but it also repaired them. I tried to cut and paste the error messages but there is no way to do that in recovery mode - I wish now I had written them down. I remember one mentioned an anode but it was weird because it was referencing a movie file I created with HandBrake that I KNOW was no longer on my computer. Even then I could only boot into recovery mode.
I recovered to a backup from earlier in the day, but still could only boot to recovery mode. I then recovered to a backup from earlier in the week, but still could only boot to recovery mode.
So finally today I did a clean install of 10.8 and updated all the way to 10.8.5. DiskWarrior reported the SMART status of my SSD was fine. I was able to find on Apple's servers, and install, the HP print and scan driver for my OfficeJet L7650.
I don't know what all was going on with the computer that required a fresh install - and I am annoyed because I was planning a fresh install with Mavericks and now I'll have to do it again - but my HP printing/scanning problem is fixed.

Printing Photos Misalignment Problem

I was getting constant jams using 5x7glossy print paper
It would pring one than jam, print one or two then jam.
Now it prints but cuts off about two inches of the photo which appears on the print as just white space.
I am getting no warning or indication of a malfunction on the machine.
I thought it might correct itself, by turning the machine off and a minute later back on, by printing new photos, but so far nothing works.
It does not affect normal text printing.
Would appreciate any help I can get.

Hello @efx,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I would like to assist you today with resolving the printing issue that you're experiencing when printing photos on glossy paper from your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium e-All-in-One. Because normal text printing works fine, I am inclined to say that there is either a setting issue within the program that you're printing from or a roller issue that is causing the paper to 'slip' when being printed. Can I please have you follow the steps below to resolve this printing issue.
Step 1: Update Firmware:
To start troubleshooting I am going to have you send the latest Firmware Programming Update to your printer. The Firmware is essentially the 'brains' of your printer. It controls what your printer does and how your printer does it. If there is an issue within the internal programming in your printer it can cause your HP Officejet to not respond properly. Please click here to download and install the latest Firmware. Once the Firmware Update Tool launches, please follow the onscreen prompts to 'send' the Firmware to your printer.
Once the Firmware has been successfully updated please try to print again on the glossy paper. Should the printout still show cut off please proceed to the next step.
Step 2: Check Paper:
Never overload the paper tray. The maximum capacity of the input tray is 250 sheets of paper
Do not push the paper too far into the tray
Load only one type of paper at a time in the paper tray. Never mix different types, weights, or sizes of paper
Do not use paper that is bent, torn, wrinkled or curled
You can only print specialty paper (Photo paper) from Tray 1 on your machine
Step 3: Test Copier:
To verify if this printing issue is being caused by a setting within the program that you're printing from on your computer I am going to have you perform a Copy on the glossy photo paper.
Load the glossy paper in your paper tray. Ensure that the glossy side is face down.
Load an image you wish to test Copy on the flatbed glass on your machine
Touch the Copy button on the front panel
Select Settings
Select Paper Size: 5 X 7 inches
Select Paper Type: choose the Premium Photo Paper, Advanced Photo Paper, Everyday Photo Paper, or just Photo Paper. Pick the option that matches your paper type.
Once adjustments have been made please run a Colour Copy or Black Copy
If the paper feeds and copies correctly, than we know with 100% certainty that the HP Officejets hardware is functioning properly. What program are you printing photos from on your computer?
If the paper fails to feed and copy correctly, than this issue is being caused by your printer. What weight and type of glossy photo paper are you using?
Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. I look forward to hearing from you!

Cannot Print Photos via Printer Sharing

I cannot print photos from iPhoto or Preview using Printer Sharing to my iMac anymore. I get this error message when I attempt to print a photo:
/Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpII.app/Contents/MacOS/ rastertoescpII failed
I am using a Mac Book Pro sharing the printer connected to my iMac over a wireless network. I can still print documents OK, so the printer sharing is working fine.
I have recently upgraded to iPhoto 9.2.3, and have updated the printer driver via Software Update.
If I connect the printer directly to the Mac Book Pro I have no problems printing photos from either iPhoto or Preview.
The iMac still prints from the older iPhoto OK.
This is rather a pest so I welcome any suggestions.
Robin.

Fixed. Installing Mountain Lion has done the trick. There must have been a glitch in Snow Leopard that was the bother. Anyway, I am happy I can now print form my MBP via printer sharing.
