Cannot print on photo paper

I have a HP 7510 all-in-one printer running Windows 7 64 bit.  I ran all the diagnostic tests offered by HP.  Recently, when I try to print photos or graphics and then select Photo paper or paper of presentation I get a very bad impression - color is faded and is not clear.  If I select plain paper it works fine however I don't think I get a picture quality which is what I use the printer for most.  In other words I can't print in the 'better' quality.   I updated the driver, clean the heads, etc.  All of the suggestions.  I bought the printer last summer so its not yet old.

Hi 11lady,

Be sure and check the ink levels and replace any weak inks.  It is also important to select photo paper on your computer which is as close as possible to your real photo paper. The quality of the printed photo can also be strongly affected by the quality of photo paper.  Differences in paper can make a big difference.   You could experiment with different settings and verify their results.

I'm linking you to a document to print quality troubleshooting.  Take a peek and try the steps you see that you did not.  Let me know how it goes.  Click here

Good luck!

  • printing on photo paper

    When I print black and white photos, photo paper out without even a black stain on it, not to print the all-if I put paper ordinary it allows to print the image, what don't get me? -Thank you

    (Pigmented) black ink is not compatible with the media of photography and color cartrdige (s) is used for printing on photo paper.  You have an installed color cartridge?  There ink?  What model is your printer?

  • Printing on Photo paper with black ink cartridge - J6480 - grayscale does not work

    With:, Mac OS 10.6.6 more latest software HP Print/Scan/utilities:

    The color radio button to use the black cartridge is grayed out if you choose to print in grayscale. If the color cartridge is empty, you cannot print in grayscale on photo paper. It allows you to print in grayscale on plain paper.

    In other words, that it is making me use the color cartridge for printing in grayscale on photo paper. It doesn't look good for me.

    Well Yes, that's right.  The ink in the black cartridge is an ink pigment (about particles of carbon suspended in the solution) and cannot be absorbed by the photo paper.  The ink in the color cartridge is dye based (like dye food) and is absorbed by the coating on photo paper.  That is why all the printing with black cartridge is denied when using photo paper.

    Pigmented ink is used in the black cartridge to produce the beautiful crisp text on plain paper.  There are HP printers with cartridges 'Photo Black' which are ink to dye black which can be used on photo paper.  These printers also have a black text in another cartridge which is a pigmented ink.

  • Portable printer OOfficejet 100 - will not be printed on photo paper loaded

    I have a brand new printer Officejet 100 (just out of the box today) and I am trying to print photos from my Canon Rebel T5, which is connected by usb to the printer.

    I loaded the plain printer paper in the tray and the pictures printed without problem. When I try the same steps with the matte photo paper, the printer is flashing with an error of paper, and the camera screen says no paper is located.

    Photo paper I use is the mark Staples, 8-1/2 x 11 inches and 230 g/m (61lb), which weighs less than the recommended 250 g/m2 (66 lb) on the site of hp - http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=c02623030

    This printer works only with HP photo paper, or have I missed a step somewhere along the way?

    Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

  • HP C309g: Problems printing with photo paper and not A4 paper

    My HP 309 g perfectly print a picture on A4 paper without flaws. However, whenever it prints the exact image even on HP Premium Plus photo paper, the colors are weird - not black, but the yellow blues and roses. I removed the print head and carefully cleaned and aligned the printer nothing helps. Verification of diagnosis HP shows no failure at all. The obvious flaw must be with the photo paper, but I am not convinced that this is the real problem. Can someone help with this really weird problem please?

    Hi @Quackers,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I'm happy to help with your PS C309g

    I would normally be with you that photo paper would be at fault, but as HP paper, it should be good. I realize, this may be irrelevant, but make sure that you load the face of photo paper (print side) down so that it prints on the right side of the paper.

    If you load it properly however, which I am sure you are, I suggest that you try the steps in this document to solve the problems of quality Print to the HP Photosmart Premium all-in-One Printer Series (C309) .

    Let me know how things are going for you!

  • HP envy 4500 will not be printed on photo paper

    I use HP photo paper and it crashes every time.  He acts like he feels but nothing is generated on paper.  I can print photos on plain paper and it works.

    Hey @Mamadee6,

    I'm sorry to hear that the update of the firmware is also a failure for you. Make sure that you have not any "paper" or "paper jam" message on the screen when you try to send the firmware. If all goes well on the printer when you try to send the firmware, it sounds like something may be altered in your printers of programming.

    At this point, I will send you a private message with a special printer resets in it. I suggest that you check your private messages and cross the reset, I'll provide you with. After you run the reset don't forget to display the result of zeroing in this thread and not in the private message that our troubleshooting steps may be useful to other users of the Forums of HP's Support.

    Good luck!

  • HP Photosmart D5460: Impressions blue when it should be black printing on photo paper

    First attempt to print from the update to Windows 10

    Fine thank you. What the third step: select a superior printing quality and seven step: run the automatic utility to clean the print head, have you tried these suggestions? Although you can print on standard photo paper, the steps may help.

    Also, have you tried different photo paper coincidentally? I know, it seems not likely the root cause is the paper, but has given all this we tried, it might be a good next step to venture.

    Let me know.

  • HP Photosmart 5515 does not print on photo paper

    I have a HP Photosmart 5515, I was sold as being suitable for use with my ipad. But it also works for printing documents that it refuses to print images on photo paper. I'm an artist and this is the most important part of a printer for me. How do I put in place? Is there something I failed to do? Any help gratefully received.

    Hello

    There should be an option to mark the answer that solved the problem as the solution. If you do not, you can click on the thumbs up instead.

    If you go to the app store on your apple device and look for the HP e-Print, it should be one of the first applications to come. Let me know if you have any problems using the application and I will be happy to guide you through it.
