• OfficeJet 4500 printer prints on the side

  my printer just started suddenly printing on the side instead of horizontally.  Printing is much larger than what it can be.  How can I change to print normally as it enables upwards & downwards on a piece of paper 8 x 10?

  Hi Ray,

  You can configure the printer to print the (horizontal) Portrait or landscape (on the side) in the default settings  or for a particular document.  The document level setting will override the default level.

  Document level setting

  You can select Portrait after clicking Print in the dialog box of the printer for a document level setting.

  Setting the default level

  Click on:

  Start |  Printers and devices.  the icon of the printer (right click) |  (left click) Printing options

  Under Orientation, you can choose between Portrait or landscape mode, and then click OK.  Don't forget and choose the regular printer and not the fax printer.  Who help me?

• HP 3550: Print on the side.

  My printer prints on the side, how do I get it to print from top to bottom, I use it with my lenovo tablet, which is wireless.

  Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

  Are you saying that your printer is printing in Landscape Orientation?

  If this is the case, then perhaps the following will be helpful:

  Manage the print with preview output before printing

  See the section above on

  Printing options

  You accidentally left the printing in Landscape Orientation options.

  If this is the case, change your page layout tab > Orientation Portrait or automatic

• Computer XP versus, Brother printer with the IP address of the old computer inside info.

  my daughter has a 'new' xp windows computer, but still has its old brother mfc printer.  the printer prints the computer because its IP address is from his old computer. I have tried everything and you can't change the numbers mask IP, gateway or subnet on the printer in the menu.

  can someone help me?   PLEASE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, THANK YOU

  I contacted the brother who was a 6 hour ordeal to get no. WHERE.  online, it says hit the + button until NETWORK appears, there no + key!

  I can copy documents without any problems.

  also the scroll on the mouse does not scroll while she has to slide to the bottom of a page to read slowly.

  Thank you!!!

  If the computer is connected with a USB cable (which is what you describe), then IP addresses of the computer and the printer are simply not relevant to the printer connection.  The printer's IP address is used ONLY if the printer is connected to a network using an Ethernet cable (which is the picture above in my previous post).

  Now that we know what is wrong, we will try to understand why the printer does not print.

  Probably the easiest way to proceed is to uninstall the printer (assuming that it has never been installed, which seems dubious) and then reinstall it.

  I'm going to assume that you don't have the CD that came with the printer (if you do not have the CD, see pages 16 to 18 of the Quick Start Guide).

  The following instructions are "Article One" of Cori Bright (http://www.coribright.com/windows/Article_One.htm) which unfortunately seems to be offline at the moment:

  1. Unplug the printer from the PC
  2. Go to the control panel and click on Add/Remove programs.  Highlight any printer software that is listed here.  Select Remove.  (Note that simply delete the Brother here software)
  3. In Control Panel, click printers & faxes.  Right click on the printer in question and select delete
  4. Look at the toolbar.  Select the file, then server properties. Look in the tab drivers.  Highlight the printers drivers listed here and click on remove for each one.  [(Notez que vous n'avez pas à supprimer les pilotes pour les autres imprimantes).]

     4. Note that brother has a 'Uninstall tool' which should perform steps 2 to 4.  I have no experience with this tool, that's why I gave you the manual steps above.  I provided the link to be complete, not because I think that you need to use this tool: http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/us/us/en/dlf/dlf/000000/002700/dlf002701.html?reg=us&c=us&lang=en&prod=mfc440cn_all&type2=2&os=7&flang=4&dlid=dlf002701

  5. Restart the PC. Do NOT reconnect the printer!
  6. Go to the website of the manufacturer of your printer.  Search for new XP drivers for your model.  Download the correct software.  If there is no Windows XP drivers for your printer, try to watch those for Windows 2000.  In most cases, these will do almost as well.  For the Brother MFC-440CN, go here--> http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/us/us/en/dlf/download_index.html?reg=us&c=us&lang=en&prod=mfc440cn_all&dlid=&flang=English&os=7&type2=-1 download the file named "Full Driver & Software Package."  Make sure that you are connected as a user with "Computer administrator" privileges before you do the next step.
  7. Run the exe that you just downloaded.  He has auto-démarrer Setup
  8. The software will tell you when to connect the printer.
  9. Once the software is installed and the printer connected, try a test page.  He should feel great now!

• Brother printer and the scanner does not work after Windows Update.

  Separated from this thread.

  I have the same problem with my Brother ADS2000 scanner and my multi MFCJ4710.  I can print with the MFC, but the Control Center detects or scanners.  They worked and suddenly stopped.  I wonder if Windows update changed something?  Scanners both work with Windows Fax and Scan, but not Brother Control Center 4.  I called support of brother and again, they have said something about TWAIN and I have to do some registry clean.  I tried their manual steps, they sent with the registry fixes and which totally screwed up on my computer.  I had to do a restore and now back to square one.

  Any solution out there?

  It was my dose,

  (1) start search box type menu "user accounts".

  (2) open and select "user account control settings."

  (3) to change the cursor to "never notify".

  (4) 'ok' to save

  (5) fact! You may need to restart you machine.

  PS: this was my fix, it was caused by software AVG anti-virus, AVG has replaced this setting and would fail to wireless for my scanner. It will be useful.

• Brother printer wifi "the printer is unresponsive.

  Hello

  I'm new to Mac but am generally competent computer/network.

  My son is in a the student house where 2 guys have Macbooks and 2 have Windows Mobile 10. the printer is a Brother wireless printer/scanner/fax.

  Among Mac users and Windows users can send impressions and analysis perfectly, but only one of the Mac users cannot.

  I deleted the printer and downloaded the latest drivers and re-installed but still cannot print.
  I tried adding via IP address but still does not work. I also tried the Air and BrotherCUPS, but none worked.

  HELP............!!!!!

  Greetings thequizman,

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. It seems that you experience problems printing to a Wi - Fi printer. Looks like you already have a troubleshooting. I recommend reading this article, you have already done some steps here, but there is more information you have not mentioned by train.
  
  

  If the issue is not resolved, take these last steps to remove all the drivers printer currently installed that might be causing the problem:

  1. Choose  menu Apple > System Preferences, and then click Printers and scanners.
  2. Control-click anywhere in the list of devices, and then choose "Reset printing system" from the context menu that appears.
  3. From the Finder, choose go > go to folder. Type /Library/Printers/ , and then click surGo.
  4. The Printers folder opens. Choose Edition > select all to select all the items in the folder.
  5. Choose file > new folder with selection to all the selected items in a new folder named new folder with the elements.
     To save storage space, you can delete the folder new folder with items after you complete the remaining steps.
  6. Follow the steps described in previous section once more.

  If your printing problem is not resolved, contact the manufacturer of the printer to support.

• Not able to print using the printer Brother HL-2270DW.

  Original title: Brother HL-2270DW seems to install - appears in the form printer under devices and printers, but not work as printer and show that selection when printing the application,

  I tried to install my Brother HL-2270DW.   It should work with the drivers included in Windows 8.   When I plug it into the USB port, it appears as a printer under devices and printers (it even has the right looking for the HL-2270DW icon.  However, it has not the printer properties or configuration options.  When I double click the icon, it opens the page of /brother HL-2270DW, with links to brother documents, solutions and other links online Center - nothing about the parameters of the printer.

  In addition, it does not appear as an optional printer when I try to print from an application like Notepad.

  I tried to install it as a network device, but I'm having problems with installing it as a kind of printer kernal.

  I will not even try to set him up as a wireless device because my PC is connected to the network, and I don't have a spare wireless card to connect to it.
  PS I also had difficulties to install another brother printer (one without a network and wireless, but it seems to settle after restarting a few.)  Not sure how it was resolved.   I was hoping that the HL-2270DW would have done the same thing.  Nope.

• Firefox will not print on my HP PSC 750 printer and loses all formatting when you try to print to the printer Brother HL-5240

  I have no problem with one of my printers when printing 11.7 before or IE 6.0.2800.1106 but cannot print from Firefox 3.6.13 (or earlier).
  When you try to print to the HP PSC 750 inkjet printer, a "Print" dialog box appears, showing the title: xyz and a progress meter showing 100%, but it's be covered almost immediately by a second dialog box stating "an unknown error has occurred while printing" and, even if the continuous printer saying 'impression', no printing is taking place.

  When you try to print to the Brother HL-5240 laser printer, printing will take place, but all formatting is lost and what comes out is a block of text unintelligible running.

  What can / should I do to get Firefox to print correctly on my two printers?

  1. print.print_printer reappears after printing something. This pref is the last printer used, so when you reset the prefs it does not appear until you print something.

  2. that your problem with printer HP reappeared quickly, try a new profile.
  
  http://KB.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_new_Firefox_profile_on_Windows

  3. with regard to the preferences for the old printers, if reset you these Pref they don't come back (assuming that you do not select accidentally printers or printer drivers are uninstalled).

• HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 stops printing in the middle of documents

  This has happened recently. Nothing has changed on my end. First of all my ink was low, but even after changing ink it always did. I get an error message in Windows 8 that says: cannot print the Microsoft Word document. There is no error on the computer, but on my screen it says

  HP HPCA89EB (8600 HPOfficeJet) error. Printer couldn't pring Microsoft Word.

  The document is 31 pages and stops on every 5-10 pages on ANY document.

  BTW, my software is updated to date.

  Help! It's so boring!

  Hello eli4,
  Welcome to the HP Forums.
  
  I understand that you are having a printing problem in Microsoft Word with your Officejet 8600. I will do my best to help you with this.
  
  I would say running the print and Scan Doctor.
  * Download and run the utility.
  * Select your printer in the list, press next
  * Select printing fix.
  It will detect and correct problems with printing.
  
  Then, I recommend you update your firmware to the printer. (Get the latest Firmware and product updates).
  After these two restarted the computer, and then test with your word documents.
  
  If your still having the problem, try uninstalling/reinstalling the printer software.
  Also, let me know if you encounter any errors. If you need help, I have to know if the printer
  connected USB or wireless.
  
  Thaks for posting on the HP Forums.

• Cannot print - folder 'My documents' opens to save the page to TIFF

  Windows XP SP
  Firefox: 3.6.3
  For no apparent reason, when I want to print a Web page (if there are pictures, it opens the dialog "save under" and check the TIFF option (there is no other opt).) If I save it "Microsoft Office Picture Manager opens" and if I want to print the 'impression' Wizard opens.
  I can print the .pdf files.
  I can print from the internet explore.
  Finally I can't access the link "reset" on this Web site. (it says "timed out".
  The last update was in April (security update).

  I fixed the problem (of least temporarily)

  The line "Preference file" Firefox "print.print_printer (prefs.js) - printer name.
  Where (name = print.print_printer, and Value = name of the printer) had the value: "Microsoft Office Document Image Writer". (Which was incorrect).

  With Firefox closed, I replaced the value "Microsoft Office Document Image Writer" with: "Canon MP240 series Printer"and restarted. "

  If this applies to everyone, I copied the exact name of my printer (for the correction of value) in the Printers folder in Control Panel.

• On the mac does not... and Brother printer does not print

  I think this goes back to my installation of El Capitan, but I'm not entirely sure. I do not use my iMac very strongly, as it was purchased as a family computer to replace one another iMac which was about 8-10 years of age and just couldn't keep up with software updates more. It lies in our dining room and gets probably one or two times a day in the evening to access the web and do basic home computing tasks.

  In any case, I have two problems that have become worrying and annoying. 1. "about this Mac" does not open. Nothing happens when I try to select it. (Choose "System Profiler" utility does not work also, but it gives an error message that says: it can not be opened). 2. My Brother HL-2280DW printer do not print, but this interferes with a message "Filter failed" when I try to print anything.

  Any thoughts on the resolution of these issues? I have read several posts here from people with similar problems, but nothing I've done has solved a problem. I have reset the time system 2 or 3 printing AND updated my database of website of Brother printer drivers, but I still get that filter has no message.

  A little more details on my system - there are three users currently put in place. My husband has two user accounts (both with permissions 'standard') which should really be combined somehow, but I took no steps to do yet because I want to get these other issues ironed out. My user account is the admin account. I mention this because I tried to access "about this Mac" and printing of all user profiles three and no thing works in one of the profiles. Regarding the statistics of the system, it is a 21.5-inch iMac bought in April 2015 with the following configuration:

  •	2.7GHz Quad - core Intel Core i5, Turbo Boost up to 3.2 GHz
  •	16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2X8GB
  •	1 TB drive merger
  •	Intel Pro Iris graphics card

  I use a WD My Passport Ultra drive for backup with Time Machine, but it is not currently connected. I have a backup successful yesterday then I would be willing to work on any change of system that might be needed to solve these problems. I really don't want to have to reinstall the operating system, but I will if it is necessary. Thanks in advance for the help with this!

  Reinstall El Capitan without erasing the drive

  HD recovery start: restart the computer after the ring, press on and hold down the COMMAND and R until the menu screen appears.

  Repair the hard drive and permissions: at startup, select in the main menu disk utility. Repair hard disk and permissions as follows.

  When the recovery menu appears, select disk utility and press the continue button. Disk utility charges and select Macintosh HD entry indented from the list on the left.  Click first aid button in the toolbar. Wait until the operation is complete, then quit disk utility and return to the main menu.

  Reinstall OS X: Select reinstall OS X and click on the continue button.

  Note : You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest to use Ethernet if possible because it's three times faster than Wi - Fi and more reliable.
