Default settings Photosmart 6520

Can someone please explain to me how to change the default setting on a Photosmart 6520 single-sided (no duplex) printing?  My operating system is OS X Mavericks.  Thanks in advance.

Hello
Follow the steps below to disable two-sided print jobs:

Open the file that is used to print, on the file menu, click on print. The print window is displayed.
NOTE: The print window might be minimized. Click Show details to see all the available parameters.

In the print window expanded you will find next to Copies the checkbox for duplex. Select the check box.
NOTE: If the check box does not appear in the specific application print dialog box, skip this step.

Click on the area of selection below, listed as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.

Select layout from the drop-down.

Set the duplex as Off.

Finally, click the Presets menu, save your current settings as a preset and complete the print job, the employee preset by default will remain until another preset will be used.

Kind regards

  • Photosmart HP 6520: HP Photosmart 6520 - error message when you try to use the apps

    I can't access is more apps on my Photosmart HP 6520.  I get the error message "error connection server - 1".

    I don't know if this problem just since I recently changed from a Windows PC on a Mac.

    I very rarely use the apps, so I don't know when it started.

    Everything else seems to work very well I would say.

    Can someone please tell me what could be the cause, or if there is something I can try to sort it out?

    I seem to be going round in circles, and I can't work on what is happening.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hey @TraceyMac,

    Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.  I hope you enjoy your experience here.

    I understand that you are unable to use the pads (Print Apps) on your HP Photosmart 6520 e-all-in-one printer.  I want to help you with this.  A recent installation of printer would not affect your performance of platelets but no loss of connection or wireless Web services could be a factor.

    Note that to access the applications and their use from the front panel of your printer requires two ingredients to be successful: 1) Wi - Fi connection and 2). the ePrint feature (webservices are enabled).

    • Touch the wireless icon () on the front panel of your printer - is the printer connected to your wireless network?  (If not, run the wireless configuration wizard, select your network name/SSID and enter your password wireless reconnect).  If you are connected, proceed as explained below.
    • Tap the icon of webservices/ePrint () on the front panel of your printer.
    • If webservices are not enabled, press OK in order to enable them and allow the automatic updates of printers.
    • This will cause your printer to print an information document describing the characters before @hpeprint.com your printer (ePrint address).  This is known as the claim code.  As another way to use printing applications available for your printer, you can sign in to http://www.hpconnected.com to program applications printing to print and review all the content that ideally will reappear on the front of your printer.
    • From there, you can click the devices tab and use the claimcode to add your printer to the site and take advantage of the available applications, it.

    If these basic steps to respond to a resolution, please, try the following:

    When users encounter this type of problem in general, I suggest from scratch with wireless printer, webservices, and apps printing configuration.  You can clear all of these parameters in a swoop by the factory default restore * your printer.

    Here's how:

    * Note that this step resets the setting up your printer wireless, address ePrint and other custom print settings. If you have created a custom address @hpeprint.com it is permanently erased. For more information about custom addresses ePrint, click here.

    • Front panel of the printer, arrow down and select Tools
    • Select restore default

    Then touch the wireless icon, run the Wireless Setup Wizard to restore your network connection, and then tap the Webservices () and reactivate your webservices.

    If you are able to successfully reactivate your webservices, tap on the icon of your printer wireless () and make a note of the IP address of the printer.  Then, follow these steps to configure a manual DNS:

    • Enter the printer's IP address in a web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer) and press ENTER to go directly to this page.
    • Click the network tab.
    • In the submenu on the left, click Networking.
    • Then click on the network (IP) address.
    • Click Manual DNS server.
    • DNS preferred as 8.8.8.8 manual entry
    • Auxiliary DNS server entry as 8.8.4.4
    • Click on apply to finalize this change.

    No none of the suggestions above restored the functionality you're looking for?  Please let me know the result of your troubleshooting by responding to this post.  If I helped you to solve the problem, feel free to say "You rock!" by clicking the "Thumbs Up" icon below and by clicking to accept this solution.

  • Photosmart 6520: Photosmart 6520, plain paper, quick project

    during the last eighteen months, I did most of my black and white and color printing "pre-printed, quick project" under Presets. I also had the possibility of Photo paper, plain paper, Best Paper and plain black and white. I went on vacation and since returning I lost this election. I now have the choice of the project B & W B & W or color (sic!)

    Printing on plain paper, quick project is ideal for most of my impression that frequently included spot color. In order to print anything with color now, I have to use a lot more ink. I'm assuming that something has been updated while I was away, I can turn the clock back? I use Microsoft Office for Mac on an iMac and MacBook Pro. On the MacBook, the printer is Photosmart 6520 series but grayed out and Photosmart 6520 series (5AE5SCE), which is what shows on my iMac. (I got the MacBook Pro with me on vacation) Help please.

    Oops, sorry for the confusion...

    Just keep the color and enable Fas project listed, plain paper should already be default, or you can select in the form, then save the settings as the required preset.

    Kind regards

  • Photosmart HP 6520: lost my photosmart 6520 by manually changing the server address

    Hello
    My printer is connected wireless and prints well by AirPrint and when I send it jobs by email, but after successfully scanning to e-mail several times it suddenly wouldn't connect to the Internet, which gives an error message. Tried to turn it works several times. Leva help on the forum and follow-up of boards to manually change the DNS server to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 another server. This resulted in my losing access to my printer via his IP on my browser so I can't undo my actions and my printer always gives the error message when I ask him to scan to e-mail. All other functions work.
    Help, please. Thank you

    Hey @Kybosh,

    Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.

    I understand that you are having connectivity problems with your HP Photosmart e-all-in-one 6520, printer.  I want to help you with this.

    I'm surprised that a manual DNS has interfered with your setup - I think generally it does the opposite and enhances connectivity.  In any case, do not despair!   I have some suggestions that can restore the features of your printer.

    I recommend a fresh start by restoring the default settings of your printer to avoid any persistent configuration problem.  Here's how:

    • Front panel of the printer, press the key
    • Touch tools
    • Touch Restore Factory Defaults
    • * Note that this will reset your settings wireless and webservices.  If you have an address custom ePrint it is deleted permanently.  Click here for more information about setting up a custom address ePrint.

    With your restored default settings, continue on as indicated:

    • Touch the wireless icon ()
    • Run the Wireless Setup Wizard and reconnect to your network (SSID)
    • Enter the wireless password if prompted
    • Once you have created a wireless connectivity, reactivate your webservices/ePrint feature (essential for the use of scan to e-mail)
    • Tap the icon of webservices ()
    • Enable Web services and press OK to enable your printer will automatically update
    • Once completed, it will print a page of information.  If you are looking to complete an ePrint installation, it will be useful later - click here for more information.

    Now, if all goes well you can rebuild your Setup email scan:

    • Tap the scan icon
    • Tap the scan to E-mail
    • Enter your personal email address
    • Retrieve the PIN code of your Inbox
    • Enter the PIN on your requested to complete printer installation

    The above restore the functionality you were missing?

    Please let me know the result of your troubleshooting by responding to this post.  If I helped you to solve the problem, feel free to give me a virtual h.o.t. by clicking on the 'Thumbs Up' icon below.

  • Apps on photosmart 6520

    I have the photosmart 6520 and like the printer.  There is a major problem that I have with the disney app and the app promo.  There is no way to disable these applications.  I do not want as they print constantly.  Even when I run out of ink, these applications print, print, and print without interruption.  I feel that I became a poor person that I am constantly running to the store to buy ink.  I even considered going to the store to buy another printer and not a mark of HP because of all of the ink that is wasted by these applications.  What can be done to stop these applications?  My son and I spent hours trying to find ways to disable them.  I am at my wits end and I hope that I find help from the experts.

    Hello

    The best way to stop the applications would be to go the app on the front of the printer, and if it is scheduled you will have an option of settings at the bottom right. Click that and then highlight at the bottom of the list to stop automatic printing, push that, and it should take care of things. I know its not displayed on the first screen of options, then it can be easy to forget.

    The other option is if you have an application on the printer called to manage, you can go and it lists all of the applications on-demand printing, you can then press on and stop there, too.

  • Photosmart 6520: HP Photosmart 6520 hurt margins

    I have a Photosmart 6520, which allows the 2-sided printing.

    However, to use it, I can´t chose printing without margins, causing the printer to increase margins of 1 cm, even though I have more big margins.

    I have no sense!

    The printer does not reduce the size of my impressions as soon as they are within the allowed range.

    Is there a way to overcome this problem (but keeping with 2 automatic duplex printing)?

    Thank you.

    OK, in your original post said you you want to print without margins and automatic duplex printing.  In the eyes of the driver for the advanced parameter settings, the value "preserve the layout' no, OK.  When this box is checked, the printer will shrink printing slightly to ensure that to appear on the page when printing double-sided printing.

  • Photosmart 6520: can't get 2 sides Preset to save

    I use this printer connected by USB to an iMac running OS 10.9.5,, but this isn't a new problem.

    I want to print my bank statements using this configuration: double-sided and odd pages only.  I can't get this save as preset. It seems that when I try to save the current settings as a preset, the margins of Destination Size:U.S Two-Sided Letter paper nor the duplex option are registered.  I also tried to use Long Edge binding and which will not save either.  The same problem occurs if I print in a Safari window or if I save the document in PDF format and try to print from an excerpt.

    I have no problem getting the desired result for a single document, but I don't want to change the settings every time I want to print.  Isn't this why we have Presets?

  • PhotoSmart 6520: unable to connect to the site w / wireless

    I recently had an unsolvable problem with my Photosmart 6520 involving his inabilaty to print photos.  It has now almost completely off.  I use it with my desktop (using WIN XP) and two other laptops in the House (the one with WIN 7, the other with 8)

    Last week, we noticed that it's no longer access wireless.  The two laptops showed that it among their devices, but he showed in offline mode.  After being unable to reset it online, I deleted the WIN phone 7 to to see if I could find him.  He is unable to do so.  The machine to WIN 8 had no better luck.

    I don't know if the two problems are related, and while I rarely print from the laptop, I'm worried that it may be symptomatic of a breakdown coming in the opposite direction.

    Earlier today, he gave a paper size mismatch message when I tried to run a normal report for the main tray.  I ran diagnostics on this topic and got to resume printing, but I see the smear of ink on the edges of a few leaves.

    The unit is a little less than two years.  Should I waive this subject, or is - this salvagable?

    Hello @PFR443,

    I understand that, as well as a print quality problem, you are also not able to print wirelessly with your all-in-one Photosmart HP 6520. Now, I previously working with you on the following thread: Photosmart 6520 refuses to print photos and had exhausted all efforts to solving the problems with you. In the end, I had to refer you to our queue of Technical Support for the hardware support that your product has met a hardware failure, from which it cannot recover from.

    Part of our troubleshooting was to run a semi Full Reset. We had done that on March 2, 2015. If you remember, this semi Full Reset resets all the settings of your printer. This includes wireless information. Therefore, the wireless feature will need to be reconfigured from scratch on your product. The printer should also be added to each computer that you use with to re-establish the wireless connection.

    If you still want to attempt to reconfigure and reinstall your printer wireless, I can provide you with these steps. But your product is defective. Therefore, things will continue to act on you until you get that fix the printer or replace it with another model.

    Please let me know if you want to continue troubleshooting wireless. I look forward to hear from you!

  • Photosmart 6520: Trying to find the Code of 'request' to record the HP printer connected.

    Printer Photosmart 6520 of is (and works perfectly), allows to print emails ok phone mobile, as the e-mail address of the printer (HP eprint one), but not able to record my printer on the HP connected site as unable to find the Code for "request".

    Have followed the instructions from HP to "Print report" and ran every possible piece of information apart from the "request Code".

    Can only guess that previously while modifying the HP eprint address and making it more user-friendly, I already activated and used the claim Code?

    I would like to fix this, so I can add a printer and display the record of the emails sent for printing.

    Appreciate any advice.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    The claim code to customize your ePrint address, which means that it's already been claimed and is no longer valid.

    In order to obtain a valid claim code, you will need to disable web services and reactivate, however, that means that you must select a different ePrint for the printer address, the current will not be available.

    To do this, click the Web Services and select settings, then select delete the Web Services.

    Open the Web Services option again and follow the steps to reactivate, an information sheet will include the new claim code.

    Then you can add it to the connected HP and select a new personalized email
