Yes or No: Can I print 4x6 photos without them being cropped by HP?

Many posts complaining of the same -
HP all-in-ones are cropping 2-3mm on all edges in order to fit 4x6 photo paper.
Simple question:
Yes or No.  Is there a solution or setting to fix this?
I'm not looking for workaround such as printing my photos on 8.5x11 and then trimming them myself. 
That's just lame. 
HP!  Are there any plans to fix this design flaw?
Thank you.

Yes.

  • HELP Can't print 4x6 photos

    I have been trying off an on since December 05 to print 4x6 boardless photos from iPhoto with no success. I set it up and when it start to prints my printer tells me that I have the wrong size paper. I don't want to use 8x10 photo paper I want to use 4X6 paper. I have read and reread the instructions but I must be missing something. Can anyone help me please. The printer I use is hp 3310 just got it was using a hp 8150

    First of all thank you for responding. I tried your suggestion as best I could. I forgot I had 8x10 copy paper in tray and that is what my picture printer on. Next put in photo paper 4x6 in photo tray and machine still said out of paper load more. I even tried to put 4x6 photo paper in main paper tray would not take it. I didn't have any success with the 8150 either.

  • Can't print 4X6 photos with upgrade 3.2

    I get an error msg when I try to pring 4 by 6 inch phots, can print the other sizes

    I cannot print photos. I have 4x6 Kodak Ultra Premium paper. I have a new HP Photosmart C5280 printer with a photo tray. The tray seems only accessible from a camera memory card and my photos are on my computer. In Adobe or the HP Photo programs the same menu comes up and I have gone through all the choices. None will print. Error message keeps repeating "wrong paper size."

    JimHess~  Many thanks.  In my short history with LR, it's amazing how many people I've seen ask this question.  I'm nearly embarrassed at how simple the fix was, but grateful that you didn't dismiss such a basic question.  You made my week.  And my friend's photo album...

  • Printing 4x6 photos on HP Laserjet 4630. photo paper tray not working?

    I am trying to print 4x6 photos on glossy paper.  My printer has a photo paper tray in addition to a standard letter tray.  When I specify 4x6 borderless glossy paper in the print parameters, the printer keeps pulling from the standard paper tray instead of the photo tray on top of the printer.  This has worked for me in the past, but I haven't used it in a long time.  What must I be doing wrong?

    Hey. I'm a photographer with the C4280.
    This printer takes care of 8.5 x 11's pretty much perfectly. But 4 x 6 not for me on iPhoto or Photoshop.
    So what I did was I set up a pages document with a blank template, set at 4 x 6 inches.
    I dragged rulers about .25inches in and threw in the photo set at 4 x 6 ratio. So... most photos are 4 x 6, just resize it to fit in the rulers.
    I've noticed in most occasions it cuts off the top of the photo document when laid out in portrait.
    What I do is a hit command p, select the printer but choose under the drop box that says "layout" i hit borderless printing, and a selectable box will show up saying "print borderless" and i just clicked it.
    on the document though you might want to make the opacity 10% to save ink. you have to trouble shoot the exact place to set and drag up or down the photo. but once you get it, its reliable the duration the document is open and the printer is on.
    i know its kind of pointless for one, but i had a shoot with live printing on the spot with this printer and its great. you can add texts boxes and put those perfectly where you want (once you set the picture so its set) and throw in another picture and really customize the 4 x 6.
    i printed a postcard with the writing already in it. just had to mail it no writing involved.
    you also need iwork 08 or 09. i have 08 but im sure 09 works. so if you save the pages doc as a template you can just drag in the image file into where the old image is and print that way.
    command p, choose borderless printing in the drop box and click print borderless. it should work.
    email me for a copy of my pages document. [email protected]
    i promise though, with canon or epson 4 x 6 print paper, its pretty amazing. almost comparable to my prints from my printer.
    or you can fit 12 3.5 x 2inch (business card sized) pics on an 8.5 x 11.

  • I am suddenly having a problem printing 4x6 photos.  The print as though starting in the middle of an 8x10 sheet.  I've checked and double-checked the print settings.  Anyone else have this problem?

  • I cannot print 4x6 photos only 8.5x11

    When I try to print a 4x6 photo it looks like it has a red haze to it. When I try to print the same picture on 8.5x11 it prints perfectly. How do I get the printer to print 4x6 photos. I am using HP paper. Can you help?

    Hi there eod126,
    Could you provide the community with a little more information to help narrow troubleshooting? Things like your printer model and your operating system help out a lot.

  • L7680 Won't print 4x6 photo-Erro​r Code B842F086

    Prints letter size OK. Test page and alignment pages good.  When I try to print 4x6 photos, printer locks up and I get an immediate error message “Turn power off then on again”, then error code B842F086.  Later, the message “….Improper shut down”

    Yes, it has always printed 4x6 just fine. I am talking about 'borderless'  4x6.  Just as an experiment, I tried 4x6 with border and one other 4x6 format (don't remember), no joy.  They I retried 4x6 bordrless and it worked fine.  Printed several sets of photos. 
    Go figure???

  • When I print 4x6 photos they are crooked on the paper

    Can anyone tell me why, when I print 4x6 photos the photo is crooked on the paper?

    Hello ncurto,
    Sorry that the photos are coming out crooked.  There actually could be a number of reasons why this could be happening.  I would like to request a little information from you.
    1.  The model number of the printer.  (c309, a909, d110)
    2.  What type of paper are you using?  (brand and size)
    3.  Have you done any type of troubleshooting since the issue has begun?  (Cleaning rollers, power cycling)
    4.  How long has this issue been a problem and did it ever print correct?
    5.  Does this error occur when you print out of the one application or all applications?
    The answers you provide will allow me to better diagnose the issue.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • Trying to print 4x6 photos on 7520, always gives no paper in tray message

    I am trying to print 4x6 photos from my laptop.  I have changed the preferences for the printer to "photo tray" and 4x6 photo paper.  I keep getting the message "no paper in tray".  The main tray is empty and I have 4x6 photo paper in the photo tray.  What next?

    the settings are correct.  if I put paper in the main tray it prints the picture on paper, not photo paper.  I printed a test page last night and it printed on the photo paper.  I still get the same message when trying to print the photo.  Thanks

  • How can I print multiple photos per page?  It was simple in earlier versions of iPhoto.

    How can I print multiple photos per page?  It was simple in earlier versions of iPhoto.

    Do you want to print several different photos per page or multiples of the same photo?
    If you want to print several different photos,select them all at once and press command-P for "Print".  Pick the Custom Layout and adjust the photo size suitably.
    If you want multiples of the same photo, duplicate the photo several times and select all copies at once, then press command-P.

    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.

  • 6515 won't print 4x6 photos defaults to 8x10. This happens on two different hp computers

    Hp 6515 will not print 4x6 photos defaults to 8x10 paper tray. This happens on two different model HP computers.

    Hello Cal31,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand when you try to print a 4x6 photo, it defaults to 8x10 paper. What is your operating system on your computer(s)? Windows or Mac?
    I would recommend following this HP document on An 'Out of Paper' Message Displays on the Control Panel and the e-All-in-One Does Not Pick Up Paper ... Make sure you change the "Print Settings" to the correct paper size and the "Media Tab" is set on "Photo Tray".
    Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you.
