7520e HP Photosmart photo tray error

I have my e-ALL-IN-ONE printer 7520 put in place and it has printed a test sheet.  When I try to print anything now, I get the "the photo tray is blocked.  Please adjusst the tray, and then try again. "I did short standing on my head so that it can print.  I checked with a flashlight to make sure there is nothing inside blocking so it will not be printed.  I'm SO FRUSTRATED!  Please help me!  Sue

I found my answer back to other posts on the same topic.  You remove the tray to photo paper and look at the back to a small gray wheel.  He's probably stuck in position 'up '.  Pull it gently down... put the tray back in and you can probably print without problems now.  I am so grateful that I found the solution to my problem.  She was driving me CRAZY!

  • 7510 Photosmart Photo tray

    I just bought a Photosmart 7510 and I'm a little confused by the photo tray.  My confusion comes when you have to lift until paper is inserted in the regular paper tray.  When we look at on the instructions in the manual and online photos to believe that you are able to lift the photo tray and lock it in place so you can put paper in the paper tray.  However, I am on my second printer where when I raise the photo tray it does not lock in place and I have to hold it up with one of my hands so I can insert the paper into the paper tray.  That's the way it is supposed to work and the instructions for insertion of plain paper are leaving aside the fact that you have resisted the photo tray?  I did call the HP technical support but the woman I spoke to had trouble understand me and although she eventually go and test this out on a printer in its call centre saying that I don't have to hold, she kept all the time on thinking, I was talking about the installation of photo paper, plain paper not and I fear she tested tilt the clear door located above the photo tray not actually lift the entire photo tray.  Someone else has this printer that allows you to check whether or not my printer is what it is supposed to before I return a second printer and find there nothing wrong with that?

    Hi dragonmasterdoo,

    The photo tray locks in the up position. What you can do is remove the photo tray while you load the standard paper and then reinsert the photo tray in the printer.

  • Photo tray ignored on Photosmart 7520e

    I use a Photosmart 7520e with a class model iMac and OS to date. The printer worked fine for several years. Although I print photos pretty rarely, I was always able to print on paper 4 x 6 from the photo tray. Last week, he refused to print pictures of everything except the main tray. All the settings on all the menus seem to be correct, unless I forgot one, somewhere I have deleted the printer in the printer list and then added. I carefully specified the type of paper on the various pages of the print dialog box. Nothing did. Any ideas?

    jawex,

    I think that we are on the right track, let's go ahead and update the software and drivers to ensure that they are compatible with your Mavericks operating system. Please follow the steps listed below:

    Scrub / uninstall

    • Open the Applications folder >HP or Hewlett-Packard folder > Uninstall HP
    • Click continue, click on one of the printers in the list.
    • * Only perform this step if you have not all other HP printers.  Hold down the command, Option , and command, while now the three buttons down, click Uninstall.

    Reset the printing system

    1. click on the Apple icon and then click on System Preferences.

    2. in the hardware section, click on Printers and Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan dialog box opens.

    3. make a right click (or Ctrl + click) in the left panel, and then click reset printing system...

    4. click on OK to confirm the reset.

    5 type the name and the correct password.

    6. click OK to reset the printing system. The printers and Faxes dialog box shows any selected printer.

  • error message saying not installed photo tray

    I have a photosmart 6520 and try to print a picture for the first time. I followed every time of multipe step and get an error message saying "phototray not installed." It IS installed. I see it installed. I can't find any help online for an error of this type. I bought this option to print photos. I'm usually not a dunce when it comes to these things. The printer has been printing from the drawer 8 x 11 for 6 months without problem. Thanks for any help.

    Check the properties/device settings 6520.

    What is the Photo tray: option value?

  • Photo PhotoSmart 7520 tray is blocked when I try to print photo 4 x 6 for the first time.

    I just bought this 7520 and installed the software; then when I tried to print a picture for the first time, I kept getting the error message that the photo tray is locked (will not travel to bottom to pick up the blank photo paper) even if no clogging. The call centre could not solve the problem, and they ship me a replacement printer; but I suspect that this may be a common problem.

    I searched the post, and someone else had the same problem.  The solution is that the tab on the slide of paper size was outside the slide area.  I fixed it, and the printer now prints pictures.

  • Photosmart 7525: photosmart 7525 photo tray - how to get the photo tray to use instead of the main tray

    I use a computer from Dell using Windows 8.1 desktop 64-bit.  Printer is HP Photosmart all-in-one 7525.  The software is Microsoft Picture Manager.   I want to print a photo .jpg of MS Picture Manager for paper photo 4 x 6 I have loaded in the photo printer paper tray.  The problem is that printing is still trying to main paper tray in the printer.  Remove all paper from the main tray just causes the print operation to not to say that the main paper tray is in the paper.    If the main tray contains plain paper, the photo printed on this paper.  I have the printer set up to use the photo tray.  I select HP 4 x 6 paper in MS Picture Manager and also set Picture Manager to the highest print quality.  But no mater what I tried, the printer selects tray to main paper rather than the smaller photo paper tray.  The printed image is 4 x 6, but it is printing on paper of the main plate.  What I am doing wrong?

    Well - I found that among the pop ups related print had a link 'options' that seems to indicate that it could be me trying to change things which were not suitable for my printer - so I didn't click the link.  So this time I didn't click the link and he showed me up - again - to set the s/w to use the photo tray.  So I did and the photo made print from the photo rather than the main tray tray.  So now I know how to do and don't need to mess with trinkets or all other signs, you've shown me.  Thank you for taking the time to try to help me.  I appreciate your help.  CR

  • Photosmart 6520e: print photos from the photo tray

    HP Photosmart 6520e - when I try to print photos from the tray photo here is what is happening. I empty the 8 1/2 X 11 (big) paper tray pull the photo tray properly load 4 X 6 photo paper and close the guides for focus media. Push the tray (s). When I try to print, I get the message that it is paper. EVERY TIME!

    If I load photo paper in the paper tray size, Center it with the guides and close the bins it will now display the peak (s). But it won't print from the photo tray, said always with paper. Prints only from the main paper tray. What's wrong?

    Thank you

    Hello @barnstormer37,

    I would like to help you today with the message 'in paper' that you get on your Photosmart HP 6520 e-all-in-one printer when trying to print photos from your Windows Vista computer to the photo tray. I understand that you are able to print from the main tray end, and you load properly all of your photo paper in the photo tray. At this point, it does not sound like a configuration problem on the computer. You usually have to "say" what paper tray it will be the power to the printer through your print dialog box. If the tray is always set to the main desktop tray when you want to print from the photo tray this will result in a "paper" message like your printer "think" it is supposed to print from your main tray empty. Please follow the steps below to make sure everything is set as it is supposed to be.

    For your reference I'll start providing you with the "loading paper" documentation for your product. This documentation is also useful if you decide to print envelopes as well.

    Loading paper and envelopes for HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 6520 6520 Photosmart e-All-in-One Printer Series

    Once your photo paper is loaded, I'll make you do a test print to your printer from the photo tray. Because each program is slightly different when it comes to printing, I'll start by providing you with the steps to print correctly in the Windows Photo Gallery program as it is specific to photo printing.

    1. Windows Photo Gallery by clicking the Start button
    2. Click on all programs
    3. Select Windows Photo Gallery
    4. When Windows Photo Gallery opens, choose the image you want to print
    5. On the toolbar click print, and then click print again
    6. In the print pictures dialog box, select the printer, paper size, print quality, print system, and number of copies to print.
    7. Click on the Options at the bottom right for additional print options. Ensure that the paper tray is set to the Photo tray.

    Once the adjustment options and the plateau have been confirmed as being correct, please try to print.

    Please let me know if the steps I have provided resolve your printing problem. Should receive you 'in paper' messages in another program, please let me know which program you are printing from. Good luck!

  • HP Photosmart 6521: Can find photo tray option when printing

    I bought a HP Photosmart 6521 today, part of the family 652 x.  I set up via the USB cable on my old Mac that is running Leopard 10.7.  The printer software is automatically downloaded and the printer set up like a dream.  Wifi link to my Wifi network configuration.  Can print from my new toptop running OSX10.9 no problem.  Problem is that I can find a print option on the laptop that allows me to choose the phototray.  I looked at the Mac and HP support forums, I downloaded and installed the software for the HP Photosmart 6520, no problem with the installation.  Still do not see an option on my computer to print from the phototray.  Any ideas is this likely to be a problem of HP or a Mac problem.

    Thanks for the comments.  I have mangaed to solve the problem.  See my post titled.

  • Photosmart 6520: A5 in the photo tray

    I have a Photosmart 6520 printer all-in-one. I would like the photo tray to print on A5 paper invoices. I can get the printer to take A5 if my paper size is set to one of the accepted sizes but it gives me a message that the paper is the right size. If I select A5 he came right back and said that I can't print in A5 from the photo tray.

    I know I'm trying something outside of the manufacturer's intentions, but thought maybe someone knew how to trick the printer actually for me.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Unfortunately, you cannot use any media higher than 10 x 15 size when using the paper tray.

    Who have not big thing to do with the driver, but rather the firmware of the printer, the gatherers of media for the photo tray, which are not designed to take no matter what broader media and sensors of media that provide such a

    So I'm afraid you won't be able to accomplish such a, this is a limitation of the hardware itself that did not draw a bigger ratehr of sizes paper than a limitation of the print driver, so any other driver will not be able to work around this limitation.

  • Photosmart C7280 prints not photo tray

    My Mac laptop upgraded to Lion. I tried to print from the photo on my Photosmart C7280 tray, but even if I chose the photo tray in the dialog box, it keeps printing from the main tray. I took out all the paper and it does not print. I've always had trouble getting the photo tray to work, but he used to get just to the right dialog box.

    This post for someone out there trying to select the photo tray in an iMac OS Lion.  I wanted to give you a link for your printer driver OS Lion and it does not exist, it seems.  This certainly explains the limited functionality.  The previous document was for someone who has the driver already installed.  In your case, it will never exist, at least that's my understanding.  Here is where I found this information , but I think that explains why you do not have this option.  Sorry for the limitation. I'm happy to help you so if there is anything else I can do or if that relate not you let me know, but I'm afraid that it will not be a way to print to tray photo from Mac OS Lion, if you're not in the driver.

  • Photosmart Premium c310 will not print from the photo tray. Market power does not work.

    HP Photosmart Premium c310 refuses to print from the photo tray.  I use an iMac.  I shot tray in and out, nothing.  I stoked market, nothing.  Whenever I try to print a photo, it pulls the main tray.  He doesn't even try to pull the photo tray.  And I select in the settings of Photo paper in the photo tray.  Oh, and I have never tried to print before photos.  This is my first time and it won't work.  Printing regular documents from the main tray works fine.   Can someone please help?

    Are you printing from iPhoto?  If so (and this may apply to other applications), you must specify the format and print size.  Make it look like this:

  • Cannot print from PC to photo photosmart 7515 tray

    My printer is a HP Photosmart 7515. I'm running Windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron One all-in-one.

    The interface between the computer and the printer works fine, but I can't understand how to print photos from my PC to the photo paper tray. I configured print 5 x 7 paper options (that I have loaded in the photo tray), but the image came out on the tray paper 8.5 x 11.

    I googled this problem and found that others have the same problem. Is it possible to do so and if so, how?

    Sorry to hear that you are having problems with printing photos. Just to be sure, we are located using the photo tray try this:

    -Click on the round of departure-> click on devices/Printers

    -Find and right click on your printer-> preferences click on printer

    -Select the paper / quality-> in the 'paper source select' choose the photo tray

  • New HP Photosmart 7520 won't print from the photo tray

    EDIT: He will feed from the phototray if I print the photo in Windows Photo Viewer.  However, he still refuses to print directly from the jpg format, even if I specify explicitly in all the settings I want to print a 4 x 6 from the photo tray.

    Is this a normal behavior?

    I guess it would print correctly from other photo editing and look at software, but haven't checked that yet is not sure.

    PREVIOUS POST:

    I just got this printer and cannot print from the photo tray.  He printed from the phototray during installation and configuration, but it was the only time.  The rest of the time, when I try to print a photo, it selects only in the regular paper tray.

    Is there a magical procedure involved?  I have an operating system of Windows 7 and just installed on the HP site.  I uninstalled and reinstalled, but it still does not work.

    I load a sheet in the phototray, make sure that the correct printer is defined, select the paper size (in this case 4x6in photo sample provided with the printer paper), select HP Everyday Photo Paper, glossy paper, click on print and the printer does not take into account the phototray and prints from the regular paper tray.

    I've scoured the web and answers do not solve the problem.  It's very frustrating.  If I can't get this resolved in a day or two, I will back this printer and will try another brand.

    These settings should always print to the Photo tray.
