• HP Envy 4500: Cannot print Photos and large documents on my HP Envy 4500 all-in-one printer

  Hello

  I bought my Hp Envy 4500 all in November last one. It worked like a charm for the first 2 months. I tried to print photo 4 x 6 a day. 2 first impressions were good, and the third image has begun to fade from the half. Documents not threatened by more than a few pages. I tried to uninstall/re-install, printing via USB, set static IP address on the print and followed by other solutions on this forum. I was lazy to lift a question myself on this forum. Now, I'm totally frustrated and disappointed by this product, I wanted to just try my luck.

  Help, please!

  Thank you

  Hey @Kvelrajan,

  Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.

  I understand your ENVY 4500 HP e-all-in-one printer is not printing documents to the end and there is a print quality problem when you print photos.  I would like to help.

  I have some suggestions that can solve these problems.

  First, I recommend that you only perform a "hard reset":

  1. press the Power button to turn off the printer.
  2. unplug the power cord at the back of the printer.
  3. wait 60 seconds.
  4 reconnect the power cord to the back of the printer.
  5. press the power button to turn on the printer.

  Click on the title of the following article:

  HP printers - HP wireless built before 2010 printer print a partial Page or fails to print all Pages in Windows 8

  Try Solution two.

  If this clarify two questions, great!  If this solves the problem of document but still the problem of print quality with photos, click on the title of the following article:

• printers HP 4520 envy: envy hp 4520 change the default ink color

  How do I change default color black ink?

  Thank you

  Hey @jim23433,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I hope you enjoy your stay here.

  I see you are trying to change the color of ink to your wish 4520 e - all - in - default printer. I can help you with that, but I do not understand what you are referring to.

  Are you trying to force the printer to print in black only? If this is the case then the 4520 enviously you can remove the color of the printer cartridge. That will force the printer to print something that must be in color and black.

  If you try to print a document on your Macintosh and it is the impression of a different color, then you can fix this by doing the following:

  1. On your Mac, click the icon of your Apple, go to System Preferences and printers and Scanners.
  2. Hold down the command key and click the picture of the printer on the left side.
  3. Click on reset printing system.
  4. Click on the button "+" in the lower left corner of the screen.
  5. Select your printer from the list.
  6. In the box next to click on Airprint and then select your printer.
  7. Click on Add.
  8. Try to print.

  This should allow you to print black on your Mac.

  If you encounter another problem then please provide me with more details and I'll be better able to help you.

  I hope this helps and I hope you have a wonderful evening!
