Index cards will not print to Deskjet F4480

I'm running OS X 10.6.7. I use a HP Deskjet F4480 all-in-one printer.

I am trying to print on 3 x 5 or 4 x 6 cards, and even if the printer recognizes these sizes, it does not print on the cards correctly. Instead, he spits them simply white.

I had to go to work today before I could try the same size of page in another program. Everything that I tried this on is Word 2011. Using a simple program like TextEdit can produce better results? What should I try?

lamcqueen-

What are the settings in the Page layout Word box?  The settings are applied to the "Format for: any printer" or your Deskjet F4480?

Does anyone else have any other thoughts? -Randy

  • iMac will not print to Deskjet 3050 a

    Hello

    I'm running an iMac in early 2008 with the operating system upgraded to OS X 10.7.2.  including all updates.  Just bought a Deskjet 3050 a and downloaded the software HP istall to the address on the HP site.

    Spent by the installation procedure except when it came to the question "install that Print" it didn't come with the identifier of the printer only.  so I couldn't continue.  Printing of diagnostic said no problems found congratulations on successful installation, etc.  However, even if the printer is connected it will not print.  What can I do?

    AHA!  I also noticed you are using a D-Link Extender, which indicates that you don't have a router.  According to your description of your Internet configuration, the device emitting IP (DHCP server) addresses is likely on a device outside your home.

    If this is the case, this device is likey to not allow devices to "talk" to each other on his network.

    If replace you your range extender with a router and all devices connected to the system should work perfectly.  Thoughts?

  • Computer Vista will not print to Deskjet 930c on home network

    Our three computers (Vista is A, B, and C are XP) are connected to a wired network of private home.  Computer A has a Canon printer that is shared and all 3 computers can print to that very well.  Recently, we re-gasket a printer HP DeskJet 930C to computer B (via USB) and shared.  Computers, B and C can be printed on the HP very well.

    But, even if A computer can see the printer, it will not print.  He seems to accept the print command and sometimes a dialog box flashes on and so quickly as it cannot be read, but nothing prints.

    I worked through the Microsoft article "File and sharing printers in Windows Vista" at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspx#mainSection and you don't see anything that solves the problem.  I ran the doctor of printing & scanning HP and who wrote the 930C is installed but not connected.  According to the website of HP, Vista has the correct driver.  I have uninstalled and installed the printer from computer A, but it still does not work.

    So I called HP Support, and they said that I had done all the right things, and "it must be a registry problem.  This seems unlikely to me, and I don't know where to look in the registry.

    Any ideas or solutions?

    Hello

    Windows XP sharing can be done automatically in XP or operating systems, XP does not host the drivers for the newer Vista operating systems and so you will have problems with some models.

    To manually add the shared printer, follow these steps:

    1. install the printer locally in following second method: connecting the cable in parallel below:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01655752

    2. go into your PC host (computer B), right click my computer and select Properties.

    Find the name of computer on this screen.

    3. go in Control Panel > printers and faxes.

    Right-click on the printer and select Properties.

    Open the tab end hand note the share name

    Note: I would say keeping the name of sharing as simple as possible (e.g., 930C)

    4. go to your Vista machine and open Control Panel > printers.

    Click with the right button on the 930c configured in step 1 and select Properties.

    Open the Ports tab.

    Click Add a new port.

    In this list, select Local Port.

    Set the local port in the form of \\Computer B Name\Printer share name (for example \\PC-P\930c).

    Confirm the changes and check any change.

    If you have still any question, I would say that the printer is connected to the Vista machine, then share it with the XP PC and check for any changes that should run more easily from my experience.

  • DeskJet 940c: new 78xl cartridge will not print on Deskjet 940c

    bought 78xl tricolor cartridge.  Have only used the 78 before regular.  New cartridge will not print.  Replaced by the old cartridge - printed perfectly.  When I opened the printer, the cartridges for the little happy face moving, I have not a clue as to what is happening.  I would simply return this cartridge?  The 78xl is compatible with the 940 c?  15 black continues to print well.

    ARGHHHH.  Help, please...

    Hey @JaniBee ,

    Yes I recommend you return the faulty new cartridge and replace it! If you buy the new cartridge and it fails well then let me know and we can look at the printer and excludes a faulty cartridge error.

    Get back to me and let me know! Have a great day and a wonderful holiday season!

  • HP Deskjet F2210 printer will not print my documents with the exception of my e-mail highlighted

    HP Deskjet F2210 printer will not print my documents with the exception of my e-mail address highlighted who is on the document, it is not cartrages, as it will print one page black and multicolor of the internet. Help, please.

    If you found problems with print quality with the only printer without printing from the computer, then it is a hardware problem.

    You may need to contact HP (1800-474-6836) support. Looks like a print head may be bad or needs to be cleaned manually. I don't think that this printer has a detachable printhead to clean manually.

  • HP Envy 7640: HP Envy 7640 will not print photos from the photo tray

    I bought a HP Envy 7640 today, 11/05/2016.  It will NOT print photos from the photo tray.   The printer has paper in all trays, but keep taking 8 1/2 x 11 paper rather than photo paper.  I use the default application for the display of pictures (Microsoft Office 2010) and have tried selecting both the 4x6in of the index card. and sizes of 4 x 6/10 x 15 cm.  The end result is the same, an image printed in the middle of the plain paper.  I searched the forums and found that two related threads.  Given that I just install the printer today, I figure there will be newer drivers in the last hour, so I finished downloading "printing HP and Scan doctor."  He finds a "Match of Port issue" and that fixed it, but when I printed another picture, he was still on plain paper.  If I remove the paper and leave only in photo paper, the printer throws a fit and said that it is out of paper.  Any ideas?  I'm not a newbie, but in more than 20 years of use of HP products, this is the first time that I had to fill out a problem for a Board of Directors.  (And with the instant the ink program, it starts to accumulate the number of my printing without a single success.)

    RESOLVED - photo, once you select the printer & paper, you must go into OPTIONS, then the properties of the printer, then go to the paper/quality tab, then the paper Source and select manually the specific bac (bac/Photo main tray).  Sheesh, should we not automatic as soon as you select the paper size?

  • HP Photosmart 2610 says that it will not print, because the transport is stuck, but it is not

    my HP Photosmart 2610 all-in-one, said that he will not print because the transport is blocked. Well, he is not stuck. Yet, I can't print. I printed close to 20 000 cards because I bought and installed printer. What should I do? can you recommend a printer to buy. Looks like it's ready for the 'OS' yard HELP.  PAUL LACNY * address email is removed from the privacy *.

    Hello

    Perhaps he is worn and requires little (routine) maintenance (20,000 sheets is a lot of printing).

    As OEM HP is responsible for the good operation of the printer and their drivers. Check with
    HP support, their documentation online and drivers and ask in their forums.

    Good luck, you need to update or reinstall the latest driver.

    There are three models, so enter-> Photosmart 2610 - in the link of the HP driver and select the version
    you have - then select your version of Windows.

  • HP Photosmart 5520 will not print photos

  • Reference Dell V313 will not print

    First of all, I want to say, this printer has been the worse product I have ever used in every category imaginable. It not worked properly since 3 weeks after I had, when he ceased to recognize the USB drives and memory cards.

    The problem I have now is that it will not print in color or black and white.

    I tried to print a picture and the color cartridge is almost empty, I went in the "printer properties" and choose "print using black ink only" because the black cartridge is full. When I hit print, I could hear print head printing, but the page was completely empty.  So I went back to the properties of the printer and selected 'print using all available ink' and it does the same thing when I hit print; He acted like it was printing, but the document was empty. I then tried to print a Word Document using the ink option available, and it still prints blank pages.

    I do not have another color cartridge (I would rather replace the printer than buying more cartridges for this), and the black ink is full. If someone has encountered this problem, and if so what was the solution?

    On the off chance that the black cartridge had stopped working, I replaced it with a new one now I got, and now it will print in black.

    It's already happened, where a new cartridge close suddenly stopped working. In the past, I tried to clean the cartilage of the ink (according to the directions in the link above), but it didn't work. The only solution was to buy a new ink cartridge.

    It is a problem out of dozens who did anything printing nothing but frustrating, to the point where I stuff my e-mail and pay for print work.

    Needless to say, I am replacing that pile of junk as soon as possible, and I'm never buying another Dell printer.

  • C7280 all-in-One will not print envelopes

    The printer tells me the envelopes are the right size and will not print.  I use Windows 7.  I put in all the exact measurements for the envelope in both software (Word 2007 or Hallmark Cards), then in the window HP I set the size, but it will print only on paper in full format, not the envelope.  Is it possible to substitute the rejection of the printer of the envelope?

    Check the paper type: in the C7280 printing preferences/options is set to plain paper.

  • New Photosmart 5520 will not print in black

    I have a new HP Photosmart 5520 printer all-in-one.  Black ink ran out so I replaced it with a previously used ink cartridge which is of the same type # 564 but a XL version.  This cartridge has been barely used.  Now, I just can't get anything to print in black.  It will print in color, but not black.  I tried to turn off the printer.  I put the cartridge in my printer and it worked fine.  What should I do?
