My new Deskjet 3050 does not print booklets from left edge just like my old 4500. No idea why?

There seems to be some missing options on my new Deskjet 3050. My old 4500 print left edge books easily in the menu options, but there is nothing similar in the menu of 3050.

OK, I downloaded and installed the Deskjet 3050 driver and it seems pretty basic, but it has worked for print to my Photosmart c310a.  Which would indicate that it's compatible PCL3GUI.  I then installed the Officejet 4500 driver and it also works on the c310a printing.  Given everything that I suggest the following:

Go to start, devices and printers, click with the right button on the Deskjet 3050 select printer, advanced, following new driver properties, select HP for the manufacturer and select the driver HP Officejet 4500 G510g-m, then finished.  [If the Officejet 4500 is not in the list then download driver HP, install the driver and select network to connect.  When the installer says that it cannot find the 4500 to check the box "connect later.  [Once this is done, then come back her select Start above and change the driver.]

This will change the name of the printer for Officejet 4500, you can rename this option to indicate that it is a Deskjet 3050.  You can do this by right-clicking on the printer, select printer properties, then checnging the name that you want.

Once this is done, you should have the driver options available with the 4500.

  • HP Deskjet 3050: deskjet 3050 does not print the JPG files in color - all other documents are printed only in black and white

    Dear all,

    I have a problem with my Printer 3050 Deskjet. (USB connected with my laptop).

    My printer does not print documents colors in color, but only in black and white (with the exception of JPGs (photographs) which are printed in color.

    Word or PDF documents (for example) are always printed in black and white - even if they are in color.

    Copy of pages in color on my printer is not a problem.

    This works perfectly well. The printer is connected to my PC via USB.

    Cartridges (color and black and white) are practically new and original HP cartridges.

    Could the problem be associated I could have changed by accident print settings.

    Thanks in advance for your advice.

  • My Deskjet 3520 does not print envelopes. None of the proposed solutions work.

    My DEskjet 3520 does not print envelopes.  I tried all the solutions, and none of them work.  My operating system is Windows XP Professional SP 3.  The computer is a Dell inspiron 530.   There is noe error messages.  When the envelope comes out of the printer, it is empty.  When an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper is in the printer, the address information prints on the right edge of the paper in landscape format.

    My conclusion is that there is a serious error in the software.

    If there is any workaround I would be grateful to receive them.

    I simply "duped" the copier and formatted the envelope to print in the center of an 8 1/2 X 11 inch paper landscape page.  It took a few violins, but I've got envelopes printing.

    5. Left click on the Advanced tab

    9. DeskJet 9800 select the printer on the right. If Deskjet 9800 is only select "Windows Update" at the bottom left and once the update has been completed, you will be able to select Deskjet 9800.
    10. After selecting Deskjet 9800 hit Next to complete the wizard driver new
    11. Under the printer properties window, select "Apply", but don't hit not OK
    12. Select the general tab

    14. Click OK
    15. Finally, right click on your HP Deskjet 2540 one more time and left-click on Printing Preferences
    16. Left click on the paper/quality tab
    17. Left click on the drop down menu 'Normal' for quality printing at the bottom right and change its normal fast

    I see that you have some problems with your machine printing Mac OSX 10.11 for the all-in-one printer Deskjet 2540. 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 done:

    1. Disconnect the USB cable if it is connected.
    2. Turn the printer off.
    3. While the printer is turned off, disconnect the power cable from the back of the router.
    4. When the lights come back on the router, turn on the printer.
    5. Close any programs you have open.
    6. On your Mac, click on your Apple icon, system preferences and printers and Scanners.
    7. Hold down the CTRL key and click on an icon of your printer on the left.
    8. Click on reset printing system.
    9. Click the 'more' in the lower left corner.
    10. Select your printer from the list.
    11. Click in the box next to and select your printer from the list.
    12. Click on Add.
