HP OfficeJet Pro 8630: Trouble legal paper in tray 2

Hello!

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer... two problems, I need help. I always use 8.5 x 11 cardstock in Tray 1 and 8.5 x 14 paper in tray 2.

1. when I print a legal document of the size - and have the setting of the printer, the Auto Select value (for what bin pull) - he STILL has pull Tray 1, not tray 2 (which is the legal document size. I gave up to have auto-select the correct tray, so whenever I choose manually legal under paper size - and tray 2 in order to make it work. How to make this work correctly without haivng to make these changes? Now that's what I'm doing...

First... Printer Setup/layout page/advanced/legal

Then... (Printer setting) / Paper Source/tray 2 paper/quality.

2. my BIGGEST problem is that media type or tray 2 paper type will allow me only to choose "Plain paper" not cardboard. I print color documents full page - so it makes a HUGE difference in quality when I set it to cardstock vs regular paper (to the title of best in the print quality option). It allows me to make this selection to Tray 1 to plain paper, but not for legal reason any.

Subsequent procedure registration to the first question, if I change the Media Type of cardstock, I get an error saying...

"There are one or more conflicting settings. One of the conflicting settings is:

Input tray - tray 2

Media Type - cardstock

And then it makes me go back to plain paper for it to print. But when I go on tray 1/letter Sized paper-it works very well. I put legal paper in Tray 1 and tried this way-(legal size, tray 1, cardstock, better) and it prints correctly. BUT, I want it to work with tray 2.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Hey @higgybears,

Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

I see that you have some problems with printing on cardstock from tray 2 of your 8630 e-all-in-one printer Officejet. The reason why you are having problems is that TRAY 2 is designed to be able to handle only for plain paper. HP recommends using only of plain paper in the second bin. If you pass the paper in Tray 1 when you change jobs, you should not have problems with the software.

    I have a new HP Officejet Pro 8630. Through the installation process, it is stuck at the loading paper. I loaded the paper in the upper and lower trays. I checked the trays and cartridges are seated well. Clicking next translates into a printer Calibration cycle - then returns to the loading paper. Help! Thank you.

    Hey @Zaldar,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that your Officejet Pro 8630 e-all-in-one printer doesn't detect paper during initialization. I can help you with that.

    To start, make sure that the printer is plugged directly into a wall outlet, not a surge protector. Once completed this document explains How to solve problems of choice with your printer. If at this point, you are still unable to initialize the printer, the printer must be replaced. You can contact the HP Support by clicking here and filling out the form below to discuss the options.

  • ... My BRAND NEW HP Officejet Pro 8630 load photo paper...

    I just bought a HP Officejet Pro 8630 and it will NOT print on paper HP Premium Plus Photo or a generic brand of paper photo.  I just unboxed and configure all web settings.  Printing on plain paper works fine; However, when I place a small load of ~ 20 sheets of paper in the UPPER tray, the printer is trying to load then present and error message "Out of Paper".  I can then immediately turn around and put a single or the stack of paper in the upper tray and the printer will print.  I tried a single sheet of photo on a stack of regular paper, remove the stack of photo paper and loosening the battery in order to ensure that they don't are not glued together, as well as turn off the printer and the cleaning of all THE rolls by instructional video of HP and it still DOES NOT... (out of paper message).

    I got exactly the same problem with an Officejet Pro 8600 this printer just replaced.  I had a similar but even more frustrating problem with HP 8500Pro; None of them will properly load the photo paper.  I do not know how to choose the type of appropriate paper via the print from the application menu and I tried to choose the types of paper "regularly."  No solution worked.  I'll take my stack of photo papers to the store chain that I bought the printer since they have the same model of 8630 display.  I will then try to print a test them to see if the same error occurs.  If it works there, I'll take this point to poor quality HP control and quickly return my printer.  If them does not load, I have to draw them on paper photo off their tray, and then try again.

    Please help...

    Update:

    I went back to the store I bought the printer from.  They had Xerox 80 lb stock in Tray 1 and it printed without problem.  I took a stack of my HP Premium Plus Photo Paper (~ 20 sheets), removed their and mine inserted into Tray 1.  It would not load the paper and gave the same error 'out of paper '.  Commercial agent has experienced the same problem.  She then withdrew the paper except just a sheet of my Photo paper; It is then printed.  It prints all the way up to 4 sheets inserted at the same time in the status bar.  Any more of 3 sheets caused the printer to fail to load the paper.  It sounds like a fault with HP loading mechanism.  I noticed that the Xerox 80 lb pound felt slightly thinner my photo paper I have so bought Advanced Photo Paper from HP (66lb) as opposed to the Premium Plus.   I took a pile of about 15 leaves for the printer and loaded.  It seems to load well and has not failed with an error.

    HP... you've had several lines of OfficeJet Pro to do things and it seems you are always dropping the ball with a defective printer product.  Where is your quality control?

  • HP Officejet Pro 8630 - work of borderless printing produces blank pages

    Hello-

    On my HP Officejet Pro 8630, when I start a print job and select ' without borders on "print 3 or more copies, the first 2 pages of the print job, and then a blank page prints, followed by a good impression, followed with a blank page, etc. until that work ends.

    If I disable the option without borders, the job will print correctly without blank pages.  I tried printing from multiple computers and programs with the same number and have updated printer drivers / the most recent versions.

    I tried printing wired network, wireless network and USB all with the same result.  I've had the printer for less than a month.

    I use the printer for business purposes, and it is causing the major headaches!

    Thank you

    I solved the problem by selecting the Type of paper - HP Bright White... She has been set to the default value of plain paper.  I can now borderless printing correctly without blank pages.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8630: 8630 Pro HP Officejet printing problems

    I'm trying to print from Printmaster Platinum 18.1 to the printer Officejet Pro 8630.  I tried using a network connection and a direct connection, it seems not to matter.  When I check the printer icon, it shows it's queue, and then print.  The message on the printer printing runs for awhile, thenprints 1/2 "of the document then stops and spits out the paper.  My old HP printer never had problems printing of this software.  Any idea what the problem might be?

    I tried to download and install the latest drivers and it does not change the issue.  He still hangs with spinning print button and print only 1/2 "of the document and spit the paper without completing the print job.

    I have no problem printing from other programs. I tried to print a different document from Printmaster and it printed fine. It is just a document. I finished by exporting as jpg and managed to print that way. Thanks a lot for your suggestion. If I have other questions, I'll install the 9800 driver.

    Hi @jrandsk and welcome to the Forums of HP!

    I see that you are having problems printing envelope. I would like to help with that!

    I suggest to remove the printer from your printing system, using this document: uninstalling the software of the printer.

    Once you have deleted, I suggest to check and repair disk permissions: function to fix the permissions of all utility disk drive.

    I also run your Apple updates: OS x: Mac App Store apps and OS X update

    After the updates, I recommend reinstalling the e-all-in-one-HP Officejet Pro 8630 Printer series full feature software and drivers.

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

  • OfficeJet Pro 8630: Officejet Pro 8630 don't Scan to Email after move to new office

    We have recently moved offices and now we can not Scan to e-mail at work (he has worked great previously).

    We are on a wireless network at the office and I can print fine, but no scan to E-mail.

    I tried the settings via the web interface, I rebooted the router and the printer, I deleted all the accounts on the web interface and created a new, but it won't always work.

    Help?

    Hey @KBoyett,

    Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.  I understand that you are unable to reconnect the scanning to e-mail, using your HP Officejet Pro 8630 e-all-in-one printer.  I would like to help.  I have a few steps, you can try that may fix this problem.

    It is optimal that you have a wireless connection.  I do not recommend restoring the default settings of your printer to make sure that all old settings scan to e-mail are deleted from the printer.  Here's how:

    • From the front of your printer, press Setup
    • Touch Tools
    • Press restore defaults

    This will clear your wireless network, Web services, and other custom printer settings.

    Then, follow these steps:

    • Connect to your wireless network (run Setup under wireless settings wireless Assistant)
    • Tap the copy icon on the lower left below to enable Web services
    • If your webservices are enabled you can now configure your scan to e-mail

    There are two ways to Setup scan to e-mail:

    Method: use the scan to e-mail Wizard to set up scan to email

    Follow these steps to use scanning to e-mail Wizard in the HP software to set up the Email scanning function.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8630: Test Print "error - printing".

    Hello

    I have problems printing in the main printer in my office, the HP Officejet Pro 8630. Some work colleagues print to this printer without problem, and others have gave up on it as well. I have no printing problem with HP Officejet Pro 8600 to an office close to home.

    I have finally connected to this printer manually, using its IP address, because it does not appear in the search "add a printer". When I try to do a test print, in the print queue of the printer window, it shows its status as 'Impression' for a brief moment before changing to "error - printing".

    Honestly I don't know what else to do without disturbing the few people who are successfully using this printer. I hate my work colleague whenever I need to use their printer bug.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8630: Internet connection for printer

    Hello

    I recently bought a HP Officejet Pro 8630 all-in-one printer and currently it hooked to my computer via a USB cable.  Everything works fine.

    I want to participate in the program of alternative to instant ink HP Service.  To do this the said program brochure that I have my printer is connected to the Internet.  I have never made a connection like that.

    Currently, I don't have a cable modem wireless.  Do I need to have a cable modem wireless to connect my printer to the Internet?  If this is not the case, how can I connect my printer on my existing cable modem?

    My cable modem is: Motorola SURFboard of SBV5220

    Thank you

    Mark

    Hello

    Your printer needs to have an ethernet port in the back, where you can connect a LAN cable. You will need to connect a LAN cable to a free port on your current modem on the back of the printer - this should establish an internet connection.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8630: HP Officejet Pro 8630 printing problem

    Hello

    I have a printer HP OfficeJet Pro 8630 with two different computers connected on it. I have no problem printing from the computer that I use every day, but when I try to print from the other office, nothing happens. The second recognizes the printer and says it is connected, but it does not recognize the printer. In the meantime, I can turn around and print something on the computer to work immediately after I try to print on the other. If anyone has any suggestions, I would be very happy! Thank you.

    Hi @AdminGuy,

    Thanks for joining the Forums of HP Support for a solution to your printing problem.

    I understand that you have a HP Officejet Pro 8630 e-all-in-one printer is connected to two computers via a wireless network, the main one has no problem printing, but the printer is not responding to print jobs sent from the second PC. I would like to help with that.

    Is the PC that does not work with the printer to Apple or Windows computer, and what operating system is running?

    If it's a Windows PC, try to download and run the HP print and Scan Doctor. This tool can diagnose and solve many problems of printing software and printer.
