Why will my HP6510 not print to photo tray when I print directly from my computer?

Why will my HP6510 not print to photo tray when I print directly from my computer?
I am able to print to the photo tray when I print from a memory card, inserted directly into the printer.  However, when I try to print a picture saved directly to my laptop through my wireless connection, the picture prints from the main tray.  If I take the paper out of the main tray, I get the out of paper message.  When I first bought the printer, I had no problems with this issue.  The printer is about 2-3 years old.  I have gone into the HP software on my laptop and set the preferences for photo tray, along with the size I wanted and the photo paper I was using.  By the way, it is HP photo paper.  I have also done the same on the print screen on my laptop.  In addition, I have gone into preferences on the printer itself and chosen "Prompt for photo tray."  I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the HP software on my laptop.  I successfully printed the "practice picture" during the reinstalling process.  None of this has solved the problem.  
I have no problem printing a document from my laptop wirelessly to the printer. 

Hi mountainnana,
Thank you for your response, sorry the guide was not what you were looking for.
Here are some other suggestions:
Open the HP Solution Center (icon is normally on the desktop.) Click on Set Preferences, Click on the Paper/Quality tab, for the Source choose Tray 2, choose the right paper size and media type. Click Apply, and then OK. Then try printing your photo again.
If that does not work there could be a driver/software conflict happening. If that is the case please try our HP Print and Scan Doctor.
Otherwise, proceed with a uninstall and reinstall of your printer software using the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
Hope this solves your issue, and have a good day!

  • Why will my phone not send any texts?  When I try to send one it says message failed.

    I was receiving texts as of yesterday but today when I try to send a text it tells me message failed would I like to try again.  I received a text this morning but can not reply to it.  It isn't blocked because I tried sending a text to myself and that won't work either.

  • Why will macbook pro not go to sleep with Lion OS?

    Why will macbook pro not go to sleep with Lion OS?

    Test after each of the following steps that you haven’t already tried:
    Step 1
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Energy Saver ▹ Power Adapter ▹ Wake for network access: uncheck. You may need to unlock the preference pane by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your administrator password.
    Step 2
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Energy Saver ▹ Schedule… ▹ Start up or wake: uncheck
    Step 3
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Print & Scan ▹ Open Print Queue...
    Check all printers for unfinished jobs. Deal with any you find.
    Step 4
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse or trackball, and monitor, if applicable.
    Step 5
    Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the page that opens.
    Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Enter “powerd” (without the quotes) in the "Filter" text field. Select the powerd process and click the Quit Process button in the toobar (stop-sign icon.) In the sheet that opens, click Force Quit. You’ll be prompted for your administrator password. The process will be relaunched immediately.
    Step 6
    Boot in safe mode and log in. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal. Don’t launch any applications at first. If sleep still doesn’t work properly, back up all data and reinstall the Mac OS. After that, if you still have the issue, make a “Genius” appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
    If sleep now works as expected, go on to the next step.
    Step 7
    Still in safe mode, launch the usual set of applications that are running when you have the problem, including your login items, one at a time, testing after each one. Some applications may not work; skip them. You might be able to identify the cause of the problem this way.
    Step 8
    If sleep is still working after you’ve launched all the usual applications, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and test again. If sleep still works, you’re done, at least for the moment.
    If you still have the sleep issue after booting out of safe mode, post again.

  • TS3989 Why will some pictures not stream from iphone4s to ipad2,pictures taken before and pictures taken after have ,but some won't

    Why will some pictures not stream from iphone4s to ipad2,pictures taken before and after transferred ok but some won't.Any suggestions

        1.    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
        2.    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
        3.    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

    Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
    My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
    They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
    However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
    I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
    Anyways I digress.
    So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
    At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
    All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
    Answers in a postcard :-)
    Much love

  • Why will Adobe Acrobat not load PDF from my work website, but will load on other computers?

    Why will Adobe Acrobat not load PDF from my work website, but will load on other computers?  I have to log in to a website to get our orders, and we thought it was the website at first, but have since realized it is just my computer with this issue.  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software and still it does not work. 

    You ask "why", but don't provide any information...
    What is your operating system?
    What is your web browser?
    Are you asking about Adobe Reader or Acrobat?
    What is your Reader / Acrobat version?
    What exactly means "will not load"?

    YOu need to reinstall iPhoto.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    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.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • HT1338 Why will my mac not do a software update

    Why will my mac not do a software update

    Is there any error message provided that indicated why the update fails?
    E.g. "An unexpected error occured" Anythng like that?
    These messages provide guidance for people offering assistance so that it is targetted and appropriate.
    Someone might suggest pulling a plist like /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist but if the issue is insufficient space on the Macintosh HD or an error connecting to the Update Server or a security certificate error the removal of the plist would be pointless.
