Can't HP Laserjet 4250 autoselect paper size

I bought a used HP Laserjet 4250tn printer.  I plugged on a computer that is running Windows 7 (64).  I connected using a USB cord.  I loaded in tray 2 paper and legal-size paper into tray 3.  I check the command to the printer menu said letter for tray 2 and legal for tray 3.  I do not have a disk or whatever it is for print drivers so I went on HP website.  There were 3 drivers available:

1.) for Windows PCL 6 universal HP

2.) universal HP for Windows post script (64-bit)

3.) HP Universal PCL5 (64-bit) Windows

I tried to install each of the three drivers.  Once installed, I installed the drivers I went in the devices and printers > customize your printer > tray 3 installed device settings and then set tray 3 to the legal size.  Then in devices and printers, I am in the printing preferences > adjust printing options > and I put it under source to select printer automatically.

After that, when I try to print a job that contains the letter so many legal-size pages the printer will print just any letter size.  What else do I need to change to ge the printer automatically select the correct paper size?  Thank you

Ron

It may depend on the application that is in conjunction with the documents you are looking at one/edition/printing.

For example, with documents PDF, print dialog probably contains a checkbox "Choose page PDF format paper source:

  • What new photoquality garlic in those support paper size in the printer driver?

    I have a new HP Photosmart AIO 7510.  Much to my surprise the printer driver does not support create 6.5X10 inches, 5.5X8.5 inches for card stock for example custom paper sizes.  I used to have this feature in my old HP Photosmart 5150C all-in-one.  My PC is Windows 7 Edition home premium, SP1 operating system.

    Is anyone know 1. What new models - printer or in a single - support a photo quality printing and custom paper sizes?  Am open to return my current template and replace it with a new model of HP.  Or with Canon, Epson. anything that works to regain this ability.

    or 2.  is there another driver that is compatible with the 7510 which will create custom paper sizes and quality photo printing.

    You can use customized with the 7510 paper sizes, but you must use another driver to do it. Follow the steps in the post below the link for your operating system. With the help of the other driver should get the custom print size to work. Hope that helps.

  • How can I create custom with the Photosmart 6510 printers paper sizes

    I want to use paper sizes personalized with Word or Photoshop.

    I have a Photosmart 6510 printer all-in-one.

    While I can find the custom size tab layout in Word and can set this size, I don't seem to be able give the new size a name or save it.

    Is it possible with this printer, or is there a workaround to avoid the message 'paper mismatch '.

    Thanks for the ay help I can get.

    I'm sorry not to come back earlier.  I stumbled across a work around for this problem.  Use a different print driver for the printer.  I'll link the instructions below.  Again, sorry I don't come back with the workaround as soon as possible.

  • HP Laserjet M401A: HP Laserjet M401A not will mark the different paper size and tray on the printer properties

    Hello all.

    I have a custom paper size in question and the plateau in the properties of this printer.

    I would like to implement three different printers on the same port, to print directly on a specific tray (without going into the properties of the printer and select the appropriate tray and size).

    I have this printer with the additional third tray.

    I implemented the A4 in the Tray 1 (bypass), a custom size in tray 2 and 3 on the printer.

    When I enter the printer PROPERTIES I want to set up the paper size in tray 2 and 3 value. No question.

    The only sizes I see is 13 x 8, a4, a5, letter, legal and so on (there are choices may 7).

    So, I choose NON SPECIFIC.

    When I go to printer PREFERENCES, I can set up my custom paper size.

    But when I choose my custom paper size, tray 2 and 3 go away and I can choose only bypass or Tray 1.

    If I attributed to A5 (for example) the tray 2 and 3 re - appear.

    How is that possible? where I'm wrong?

    Thank you very much, any help would be appreciated.

    See you soon,.

    Luca.

    Hi Luca,

    That is expected, custom paper sizes are supported only on tray 1.

    Tray 2 and 3 are supported specific sizes of paper.

    You my find graphics of the following as a reference, it lists a paaper supported size for each tray:

    Hello @SHCand welcome to the Forums of HP, I hope you enjoy your experience!

    I see that you have problems paper selection.  I will try to help!

    I recommend you to perform a power reset.  Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

    I also suggest this document:

    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Color LaserJet CM1312nfi MFP that gives the message 'unexpected paper size ".

    In recent months, when I print a set of envelopes, after EACH envelope my printer gives me a message "unexpected paper size".  This forces me to press the 'OK' button to continue to the next task.  After that, the printer goes into a long routine of 'cleaning up' before printing the next envelope.

    The printer is behaving that way when it was new.  He started to do this only in the last few months.  If I print an envelope, between two printing on standard paper 8 1/2 "x 11" does not display the "unexpected paper size".

    And by the way, what is the problem with HP, saying that the cat is not available for my product and support pages e-mail not recognizing my product number?  Just because a machine is a couple of years, HP is going to abandon me entirely to my own when it malfunctions?

    Fixed it myself.

    I have restored the default settings, and the problem disappeared.  Press the "Setup" button, then choose "Service, Restore Defaults".

    Unfortunately, these forums seem pretty useless.

  • How can I change the default "Letter" paper format to "A4 «on a P1006 (Windows 7)»»

    I just be reformatted my computer (Windows 7 Professional - 64-bit) and then reinstalled my HP Laserjet P1006 (download the driver from the HP website)

    Even if I changed the settings EVERYWHERE in A4 format - including measures to display millimetres - and even if all parameters indicate that the format has been modified correctly, printed documents still come out as if printed on letter-size.

    The only place in the printer settings and preferences that I can find where it says even the letter notes from the 'Général' tab (right click on the default printer > "Printer properties") where he under the heading 'Book' says 'letter '.  And... I don't know where and how change this setting.

    However on my second printer of the same model that I use another computer, the settings show also letter in this place, and this computer can - despite this - still print in A4 format... so maybe it's not the problem.

    Can someone please help!

    Hi Gemini02!

    Thanks for trying to help, but don't the is not addressed.

    And in fact, I discovered how to solve the problem already:

    (1) open Word Doc aq + go to...  FILE > Options > Advance > printing

    "(2) uncheck the following question:"Scale content for A4 or 8.5 x 11"paper size" + OK

    I know it makes no sense, but it works.
