HP Photosmart C7280: photos C7280 print sideways on the page

When I print pictures from the iMac, they appear sideways on the page (oriented at 90 degrees on the short side of a 4 x 6 rather than the longest side).  I deleted and reinstalled the printer software.  "Flip horizontal" does not help.    Has started after the update to OS X 10.10 Yosemite (if that's the reason).

Hey @WillyB1,

Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

I see that you have some problems with the orientation when printing from your Mac OS x 10.10 for the all-in-one Photosmart C7280 printer machine. I can help you with that.

Here is how we will correct this:

  1. Close all other programs that you have open.
  2. If the USB cable is connected to the Mac, delete it.
  3. Click on your Apple icon, system preferences and printers and Scanners.
  4. Hold down the CTRL key and click on the image to your printer on the left side.
  5. Click on reset printing system.
  6. Open Applications, utility and disk utility.
  7. Click "Macintosh HD" on the left.
  8. Click on verify disk permissions. This should take about 10 minutes.
  9. Click on repair disk permissions. This should take about 10 minutes.
  10. Restart your Mac.

Now, if you have disconnected the USB cable, plug it. Otherwise:

  1. Click the icon of your Apple preferences system, printers and Scanners.
  2. Click on the button "+" at the bottom left.
  3. Select your printer from the list.
  4. Click the check box next to and select your printer.
  5. Click on Add.

At this point, you should be able to change the orientation of the print window. When you open the window, you should see two icons that resemble sheets of paper. By clicking on them should change the orientation. If not, please try to open your photo printing to a different program and see if the icons.

Please let me know if this allows you to print or if you have any other questions. If not, have a great week!

  • Windows 8 drivers/software for the Photosmart C7280 printer/Scanner

    Hello

    I have a HP Photosmart C7280 printer/scanner. I have recently installed Windows 8 Preview Release and discovered that the software I have installed Windows 7 doesn't seem to work as well. On the Setup, the only butotn displayed is "Exit" - that's why I can not install the software and drivers.

    Are there solutions available for Windows 8 again (even if its only beta software - I'm happy to give it a go)?

    Thank you

    Hi Travis_C,

    Thank you very much for the reply.

    What happens to me with respect to scan using Windows' built in the analysis Assistant which is OK but that only gives me the option to save as a bitmap, .jpeg, .gif, .png or .tiff.

    Software of HP that I used in Windows 7 accepted save me the scanning to PDF which is what I want in this case. Is it possible to get this software to run in Windows 8? In addition, will you be brining a version of Windows 8 of this software?

    Thank you

  • IP address changes each time the router loses power or is reset (Photosmart C7280 printer)

    I have a Photosmart C7280 printer wireless on my home network via a Belkin F6D4230-4 v1 router.  Whenever there is a power failure or the router is reset, a different IP address (in the range of 192.168.2.2 and 192.168.2.9) is assigned to the printer when the router comes back online.   This action requires each computer on the network (in total up to 9 computers) reinstall the driver and reset all the preferences print on each individual computer.   How can I assign a static IP address to the printer recognize the router dealing whenever it resets and not to assign a different address whenever the power goes off (too often in my area)?

    I hope I've provided enough information here.  If more information is needed for a good solution, answer and I can probably more information.

    Thank you

  • Why my 11 x 17 spread starts print 6 "on the page? Help!

    I try to print a book using InDesign layout. I put my paper 11 x 17. The printer appears as it is to print then pulls the page in 6 inches and starts printing of 6 inches in the image. I tried to print something on paper 11 x 17 in Photoshop and it does not. In the print settings, I have the driver-defined paper size. Someone PLEAE can help me?

    Print drivers can be funny, so I'll repeat the question: can you choose tabloid or book instead?

    Are you on Windows or Mac? If you enter the driver, what size of page is listed?

  • Photosmart C7280 prints not photo tray

    My Mac laptop upgraded to Lion. I tried to print from the photo on my Photosmart C7280 tray, but even if I chose the photo tray in the dialog box, it keeps printing from the main tray. I took out all the paper and it does not print. I've always had trouble getting the photo tray to work, but he used to get just to the right dialog box.

    This post for someone out there trying to select the photo tray in an iMac OS Lion.  I wanted to give you a link for your printer driver OS Lion and it does not exist, it seems.  This certainly explains the limited functionality.  The previous document was for someone who has the driver already installed.  In your case, it will never exist, at least that's my understanding.  Here is where I found this information , but I think that explains why you do not have this option.  Sorry for the limitation. I'm happy to help you so if there is anything else I can do or if that relate not you let me know, but I'm afraid that it will not be a way to print to tray photo from Mac OS Lion, if you're not in the driver.

  • Photosmart 7525: photosmart 7525 photo tray - how to get the photo tray to use instead of the main tray

    I use a computer from Dell using Windows 8.1 desktop 64-bit.  Printer is HP Photosmart all-in-one 7525.  The software is Microsoft Picture Manager.   I want to print a photo .jpg of MS Picture Manager for paper photo 4 x 6 I have loaded in the photo printer paper tray.  The problem is that printing is still trying to main paper tray in the printer.  Remove all paper from the main tray just causes the print operation to not to say that the main paper tray is in the paper.    If the main tray contains plain paper, the photo printed on this paper.  I have the printer set up to use the photo tray.  I select HP 4 x 6 paper in MS Picture Manager and also set Picture Manager to the highest print quality.  But no mater what I tried, the printer selects tray to main paper rather than the smaller photo paper tray.  The printed image is 4 x 6, but it is printing on paper of the main plate.  What I am doing wrong?

    Well - I found that among the pop ups related print had a link 'options' that seems to indicate that it could be me trying to change things which were not suitable for my printer - so I didn't click the link.  So this time I didn't click the link and he showed me up - again - to set the s/w to use the photo tray.  So I did and the photo made print from the photo rather than the main tray tray.  So now I know how to do and don't need to mess with trinkets or all other signs, you've shown me.  Thank you for taking the time to try to help me.  I appreciate your help.  CR

  • Photosmart c309a will not print documents or test pages

    I have uninstall and reinstall Full Version software, twice and I still can not print documents or test pages. I use the Photosmart C309a. Can you help me

    Georgebob

    Last updated, at 01:10, estimated the printer works now. I installed the new print head, and as a first step, I have no positive results. Then I tried the printer alignment... that did the trick. The printer works now.

    Now, I wonder if it was the culprit with the old print head (alignment) maybe it's always good. I'll hold on, events, if necessary. Thanks for your help and mucho laurels.

  • Photosmart D7260 won't print magenta, though the status says ok

    Dark magenta has more ink, replaced the cartridge status shows 100% and click ok, but do not print magenta color, test page does not print light or dark magenta bars have performed maintenance cleaning printhead several times, still does not

    Solution - I found the image more red, I had (wrapped Christmas gifts) clouded the Red a lot, then printed on a dozen pictures for magenta flowing.  It seems to have worked. Apparently, there was a clog or the dried ink from the printer where I didn't replace the magenta cartridge empty for so long. Good luck with yours.

  • When I scan documents with HP Photosmart 7510 ADF, how can I stop the pages to be marked?

    Hello

    I use a HP Photosmart 7510 (model No. C311a, product no. CQ877B)

    When I scan documents using the automatic document feeder, they are more often (80%) marked left.  It seems to be caused by the wheel which initially grabs the book.  It provokes a black spot of the width of the wheel to be left on the page.

    The mark appears about a quarter turn to the bottom of the page and is about 1/2 cm in height, but is very sensitive.  Sometimes, another brand is left a little further down the page and sometimes these two brands are accompanied by a very reduced, but still noticeable grey banner (again I believe caused by the wheel).

    The brand is very visible not only on the scanned now but also (of course) in the pdf file that result, and since I'm on this printer for things like job applications, it's not big.

    Other people know about this?  If Yes, is it possible to fix it or must return the defective printer?

    See you soon,.

    Hello silverShnoop

    Such problems can sometimes be caused by dirty rollers or the parts of the ADF (automatic document feeder). The following instructions (whereas for a different problem) contain instructions for the cleaning of the AAD.

    The ADF (ADF) captures no paper

    There is another article that could help as well. It contains instructions for cleaning the scanner glass.

    Hi sbsproperty,

    You can print a printer nozzle check pattern to see if all the inkjet nozzles are to distribute the ink properly.  To do this, please follow the steps located here.  Once the pattern is printed, please examine and compare it to ground of review of the nozzle correctly print here.  If the nozzle check pattern did print not correctly, perform a cleanup at least one and two deep cleanings may solve the problem.  To do this, please follow the steps located here.

  • print walks onto the page when printing business cards

    When I print multiple sheets of business cards printing the page begins to wander to the top of the sheet.  If I only print one page at a time, this isn't a problem.  How can I fix?   I have an Officejet Pro e8100 printer works wirelessly on a Win 7 64 bit OS Home premium.

    RickT2,

    Welcome to the HP Forum.

    If the first page prints OK and then subsequent pages tend to stick or the text wanders a bit, then perhaps adjust the media type would help.

    Assumption

    Setting the media type tells the rolls expected in what kind of paper - this could help pull the paper but at the right speed and tension to allow the text to apply to the location appropriate during each pass.

    Paper size and media Type are selected in the printing preferences:

    Control Panel > display icon > devices and printers > right click on your printer >

    Printing preferences > tab paper / quality >

    Select the paper Source > have desired / needed by printer model

    Select the paper size > have desired / necessary for the print job

    Select Support > have desired / necessary for the print job - for example: paper matte brochure for labels

    Ok

  • HP 5200 - print all of the pages that overlap on the first page

    I'm having a problem with one of my users while trying to print on our 5200 s HP.

    This just started happening today and not affect any other users who also use printers.

    When the user prints a document of several pages, it prints all the pages on a single page with all the text overlapping. Here is what I tried so far to fix it, nothing helps:

    -Other models HP print very well

    -Other profiles on the same PC with the same problem

    -J' changed the processor to "Winprint" - no luck

    -Update the driver does not

    -Remove the checkbox for 'Enable advanced features' doesn't fix it.

    -J' removed all traces of the printer in the registry and it still does the same thing.

    Help, please!

    It seems that if I use the 64-bit of Windows xp for the printer driver it solves the problem.

    Thanks for nothing, everybody.

  • Extra page prints when I print selects only the pages in a pdf

    When I have a several page pdf and I want to print less than the full document, my print job always starts on an extra blank page at the end. If I print the entire document, it does not generate an additional page. I've tested this in Word and Word prints only the pages with none of the additional pages.

    Any ideas what the problem may be?

    Thanks for your help.

    Sorry I'm late getting back. I solved the problem, so in the interest of those who may encounter this problem later, I write I find the solution.

    I tried your suggestion first and second. None worked. I could not try the third suggested fix that I'm on a work computer and apparently did not have the administrative rights to create a new user account (at least, I couldn't figure out how to do).

    After a lot of digging and experimenting, here's what has worked in the end.

    Start > devices and printers > right click on the printer > printer properties > Advanced tab > uncheck "Enable advanced features of print" > apply > OK.

    I have determined that, somehow, it was a problem of separator page, but it's the only way I could find to disable the separator page.

    Hope this helps someone in the future.
