Invert the question of the photo tray

Hello. Unlike the others, my photo tray problem is that I can't get rid of the photo tray printing.  There is NO adjustment for the general paper source selection, only a selection of external print makes this possible.

No matter what I said there, printing from iPhone using AirPrint always goes to the photo tray.

I am in contact with support, but they have in a first time gave me advice on the use of menus that I did not (see above) and then insisted he must work in the external print menu.

I'm on Apple iMac, OS / X 10.6.7

Otherwise, everything works perfectly.

Hello

AirPrint is indeed doing won't give you the opportunity to change that. AirPrint is primarily intended for photo printing and a HP printer which means go to the phototray for maximum quality. Unfortunately it is not editable. However, HP has a printer app, which does not have this option. Its called "HP Iprint" and can be downloaded for free on the Appstore.

    Hi @KarenPM,

    I understand that you are having problems to print from the photo tray. I can help you with this.

  • HP Envy 7640 all-in-one: cannot print photos using HP Envy 7640 of the photo tray

    Photo will not print from the photo tray. When I try to print the photo tray is not recognized. I asked about this problem before and I had the printing of photos with Windows Photo Viewer and that worked for me after that I changed the settings as shown. But now it will work for a few photos and then stop working and go back to not recognize the photo tray. I have all the right settings. I unloaded and reloaded the photo paper. Did not help. I tried to print from WIndows and Windows 10 photo App Picasa Photo Viewer. Will not recognize the photo tray. When I load the window of the printer photo paper will not let me choose the photo tray. So I can't yet do this way. I don't understand why it will work sometimes and now not at all. Help, please. I love this printer, but it gets so frustrating. Thank you.

    Hi @Carlene1,

    Since you are able to get the picture to print, which would indicate that the question is in the software, not the hardware. You should be able to print from programs other than the Windows Photo Viewer. If you experience problems when you try to print from other programs, I recommend that you contact the manufacturer of the software.

  • How can I route printing jobs for the main tray instead of the photo tray?

    If I send a mail with an attachment JPG to the e-mail address of my printer, it will always try to print it by using the photo tray. I guess he assumes simply because it is an image file, happened to print using photo paper. Although it is not a bad assumption, it is not necessarily what the user wants. I was wondering how I could implement the ePrint to control which tray to use for printing the attachments of the image files. Thank you.

    PS My printer is Photosmart 7520.

    Hello

    At this point, you will not be able to do so through ePrint. Please also read the following post:

  • New HP Photosmart 7520 won't print from the photo tray

    EDIT: He will feed from the phototray if I print the photo in Windows Photo Viewer.  However, he still refuses to print directly from the jpg format, even if I specify explicitly in all the settings I want to print a 4 x 6 from the photo tray.

    Is this a normal behavior?

    I guess it would print correctly from other photo editing and look at software, but haven't checked that yet is not sure.

    PREVIOUS POST:

    I just got this printer and cannot print from the photo tray.  He printed from the phototray during installation and configuration, but it was the only time.  The rest of the time, when I try to print a photo, it selects only in the regular paper tray.

    Is there a magical procedure involved?  I have an operating system of Windows 7 and just installed on the HP site.  I uninstalled and reinstalled, but it still does not work.

    I load a sheet in the phototray, make sure that the correct printer is defined, select the paper size (in this case 4x6in photo sample provided with the printer paper), select HP Everyday Photo Paper, glossy paper, click on print and the printer does not take into account the phototray and prints from the regular paper tray.

    I've scoured the web and answers do not solve the problem.  It's very frustrating.  If I can't get this resolved in a day or two, I will back this printer and will try another brand.

    These settings should always print to the Photo tray.

  • HP 7520 - cannot print custom size of the photo tray photo

    I am trying to print a photo of small 2.5 cm wide on a 4 x 6 "piece of photo paper. If I choose the "custom" paper size then I can select 4 x 6 on the right and put 4 copies of the photo on the sheet.  But when I click on print it always goes for the main paper tray and then gives me an error (I emptied the main tray because I don't want it to be used). I don't want to use a large sheet of paper.

    How can I force to take the paper from the photo bin? I tried every setting I can think. The selection of paper size automatically assumes that it is the size of the photo I want! If I choose 4 x 6 as my paper size it only allows me to print one full page. I need a tiny picture, preferably several times on one page. Without doubt, I should be able to say print the picture of this exact size and paper tray! Can anyone help please?

    I use the HP Photosmart 7520 and Windows 7. Thank you.

    SeoulGal,

    Thanks for the quick response. You have me a little confused, so I just want to clarify - initially you were trying to print on 4 X 6 paper, you then changed to 10 x 15, because the paper was not shooting from the photo tray? I assume you mean 10x15cm which is always the same size from 4 x 6 paper.

    Anyway I understand that he won't shoot the photo tray paper, you place the tray in the photo tray when selecting to print? Have a look here at how change printer settings so it pulls the correct status bar: Print the Photos saved on your computer (Windows)

    Please don't forget to take a look at the paper handling section in the printer Specifications as 2.5 photo size you are interested in is not, see here: 7520 Photosmart e-all-in-one printer printer Specifications

    I could open my Windows Live Photo Gallery and play with the settings of the picture, when I select option 4 x 6 as you, I only get the option for "picture full page. Now when I select the letter or 8x10inches I am then given more options 2-4x6s, 1-8 x 10, 9-wallets and Board contact etc.. So that leads me to believe this is a limitation of the software.

    Have you tried using another photo program to see if this allows you to get you exactly what you want? I open HP Photo Creations on my computer and did the following:

    1. click on the option of high prints

    2. navigate to multiple display prints and select display multiple impressions of grid.

    3. click on customize and print

    4. along the top, you are given the option to choose size, please make sure that the value is 4 x 6. See below

    5. now under the advance printing options, go ahead and select the following settings:

    6. you are also able to change the number of pictures you want per sheet, I've now fixed it 2. If you want to only 1 copy of the photo under Copies change this to 1

    7. now you can go ahead and select print (remember under the parameter to select the right printer tray)

    You are now able to print the smaller picture on paper photo 4 x 6 size the correct status bar? I look forward to hearing from you, fingers crossed

  • OfficeJet 5740: using the photo tray

    Welcome to the HP community @fredstir,

    I read your post on your Officejet 5740 do not print to the photo thew tray and wanted to meet you with my suggestions. If you have not tried to uninstall the printer software, restart the PC and then reinstall the printer once again, try it. You can run the Installation Wizard for Windows HP printer to find and install the printer for you.

  • 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

  • EFax invites you to the photo tray

    After receiving an efax, the printer pushes me that I need to load paper into the photo tray.  Of course, I can't print the fax to a photo 4 x 6.  I don't see how to tell him to use the main tray.  I put the preference of bac to bac main on the printer, but that did not help.  Printer is a Photosmart 7510

    Unless they changed something, you can get them to send eFaxes in PDF format with a free account. I personally had change them the setting on the front free accounts.  You may need to ask a level 2 technician to do, but eFax can change it.  Be sure to tell them that it's a free HP account and not a trial account.  If the level 2 won't, you may need to keep going up the chain of command for eFax until you find someone who will cooperate.  You may need to call to get through level 1 agents.

  • Printer load the photo tray photo paper

    My HP C7280 does not load paper photo 4 x 6 from the photo tray.  The photo tray moves in direction the feeder, but fails to actually load the paper into the feeder.  Any suggestions on how to remedy this?  Thank you.

    Hey,.

    Please take some time and look through this document to make sure that you load the paper correctly,

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01662562

    These are the instructions of Macintosh, but measures to prepare for printing of the photo are the same, but they will on Windows just would ignore the instructions.

  • Photosmart 6520e: print photos from the photo tray

    HP Photosmart 6520e - when I try to print photos from the tray photo here is what is happening. I empty the 8 1/2 X 11 (big) paper tray pull the photo tray properly load 4 X 6 photo paper and close the guides for focus media. Push the tray (s). When I try to print, I get the message that it is paper. EVERY TIME!

    If I load photo paper in the paper tray size, Center it with the guides and close the bins it will now display the peak (s). But it won't print from the photo tray, said always with paper. Prints only from the main paper tray. What's wrong?

    Thank you

    Hello @barnstormer37,

    I would like to help you today with the message 'in paper' that you get on your Photosmart HP 6520 e-all-in-one printer when trying to print photos from your Windows Vista computer to the photo tray. I understand that you are able to print from the main tray end, and you load properly all of your photo paper in the photo tray. At this point, it does not sound like a configuration problem on the computer. You usually have to "say" what paper tray it will be the power to the printer through your print dialog box. If the tray is always set to the main desktop tray when you want to print from the photo tray this will result in a "paper" message like your printer "think" it is supposed to print from your main tray empty. Please follow the steps below to make sure everything is set as it is supposed to be.

    For your reference I'll start providing you with the "loading paper" documentation for your product. This documentation is also useful if you decide to print envelopes as well.

    Loading paper and envelopes for HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 6520 6520 Photosmart e-All-in-One Printer Series

    Once your photo paper is loaded, I'll make you do a test print to your printer from the photo tray. Because each program is slightly different when it comes to printing, I'll start by providing you with the steps to print correctly in the Windows Photo Gallery program as it is specific to photo printing.

    1. Windows Photo Gallery by clicking the Start button
    2. Click on all programs
    3. Select Windows Photo Gallery
    4. When Windows Photo Gallery opens, choose the image you want to print
    5. On the toolbar click print, and then click print again
    6. In the print pictures dialog box, select the printer, paper size, print quality, print system, and number of copies to print.
    7. Click on the Options at the bottom right for additional print options. Ensure that the paper tray is set to the Photo tray.

    Once the adjustment options and the plateau have been confirmed as being correct, please try to print.

    Please let me know if the steps I have provided resolve your printing problem. Should receive you 'in paper' messages in another program, please let me know which program you are printing from. Good luck!

  • Photosmart 6520: A5 in the photo tray

    I have a Photosmart 6520 printer all-in-one. I would like the photo tray to print on A5 paper invoices. I can get the printer to take A5 if my paper size is set to one of the accepted sizes but it gives me a message that the paper is the right size. If I select A5 he came right back and said that I can't print in A5 from the photo tray.

    I know I'm trying something outside of the manufacturer's intentions, but thought maybe someone knew how to trick the printer actually for me.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Unfortunately, you cannot use any media higher than 10 x 15 size when using the paper tray.

    Who have not big thing to do with the driver, but rather the firmware of the printer, the gatherers of media for the photo tray, which are not designed to take no matter what broader media and sensors of media that provide such a

    So I'm afraid you won't be able to accomplish such a, this is a limitation of the hardware itself that did not draw a bigger ratehr of sizes paper than a limitation of the print driver, so any other driver will not be able to work around this limitation.

  • 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?
