new hp photosmt 5520 prints blah, faded photos. c6380 opportunity before and there is no comparison. Help?

Had me new printer as HP Photosmart C6380 showed problem printer head and not matter what I was doing (went out, cleaned, talked, prayed on) would not.  Need to print and parts are not available locally.

Distributor store providing Office told me is a 'future generation' of C6380 HP Photosmart 5520 and uses the same printer ink (I wanted to since I was a good supply).

Turns on it uses only 4 of the 5 inks, and photo prints are terrible.

Can anyone help?

The seller may have been a little less informed. Because the printer does not use the black photo (the fifth cartridge you mentioned), prints is not quite the same quality of the C6380 you had. Since it seems that this has been very resent purchase, I personally take the printer to the store and get a 7520. The Photosmart 7520 use all 5 of the inks and should have the same quality that you are used to with the C6380. If this isn't an option, let me know and I'll do my best to help you with the problem of the quality of the 5520.

  • How can I set up my new Officejet Pro 8600 more printing on paper photo 4 x 6?

    How can I set up my new Officejet Pro 8600 more printing on paper photo 4 x 6?  I'm running on Windows 7 64 bit.

    It's strange.  Looks like you have a second paper tray and put it to the default tray.  The second paper tray only supports the types of paper that show on your list.  It's strange because unless you have purchased a second tray paper, plus model has one.  Does only the high-end model.  Other than that, only certain types of media can be duplex, so if you have double-sided printing, it can limit the selection.  I'll watch what else could be the cause and get back to you.

  • I can't install my printer Epson Stylus Photo RX 420/425 in my new Windows 7 .__What can I do?

    I have Windows 7 and I have an Epson Stylus Photo RX 425 - in Windows Vista, I had no problem - but now does not work my printer in my dear 7
    Please help me - should I buy a new printer?

    Looking at the Epson site for these drivers, I see that the latest version, they offered was from 2007. Here are the instructions for using Windows Update to install the drivers for the printer on Vista . I don't know if it will work in Win7, but it's worth a try. If this does not work, then you can contact Epson to see if they will be providing drivers for your printer. Frankly, it is doubtful. Is there no drivers, then you will not be able to use this printer with Windows 7.

  • 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.

  • Cannot use our new HP Photosmart B210e printer wireless with HP ePrint server.

    We bought a new printer HP B210e for our House to be able to print wireless smartphones, laptops and desktop. The first problem was that our main office, which is about 3 years old and under XP would not find the wireless printer. I contacted HP and after several hours, they changed my desktop to be able to see the printer. Alongside this, they configure the printer to have a fixed ip address.

    It worked well, but I still cannot print from the photo tray. My wife's office has also had the same problem, but we will stop using this office. Not something we want, but she has a laptop computer.

    The main feature that we wanted to use had to be able to send an e-mail to our printer through the HP eprint center. Who has worked on the first day, we have signed, but has not worked since. It seems that our printer cannot connect to the HP eprint center at all. We can send e-mail to our printer through the eprint server. We can see that the e-mail message has reached the server, but the server cannot transfer the email of the printer. We check the Setup wireless on our printer and it is correctly connected to our home network and I can print wireless from my office.

    We're fast approaching the decision of the printer to where we bought it. We do not want to, but have no choice unless we can understand how to print from our smart phones.

    So I ask for help with the printer or a recommendation on which printer you can buy that actually work on our network wireless home. I tried to find what printer is best for this purpose on the Internet but find that there, the information is just too complicated for us to make a decision.

    PS: I see too many complaints about the HP ePrint Center, but very little about HP trying to fix or even acknowledge that they have a problem. I think they do!

    I can't comment on the ePrintCenter (maybe it's temporarily down?) but I know that your printer is capable of printing from an iPhone or an iPad... your smartphone you happens to be an iPhone 3GS or 4? If so, you can use the last iOS4.2 that supports AirPrint and print directly to your printer. As long as your iPhone and your printer are both connected to the same network, that is. I hope this helps.

  • Photosmart 5520-printing from browser job queued sticks

    Running Windows 7 32 bit home edition and I am trying to print 9 Explorered Internet consistatnly.

    Since the purchase and installation of the 5520 printer, I've been running the questions where the jobs are in a print status in the queue but nothing comes out of the printer.  The printer is configured to print from WiFi and happens on all 3 of my computers.  I need to remove the task from the queue and then stop and restart the spooler before work service removes it from the queue.  I can print from Word, Excel and other applications, but when printing from the browser it happens at least once a day.  I would say that if a website has a button "print" the problem does not occur, but when you select just print in the menu of the browser, it happens more often.

    It becomes very annoying and would like this to be resolved.  This never happened with my Canon Pixma printer that has replaced this printer.  I ran the HP printer diagostics and there no question.

    The problem is caused by a conflict pilot between IE 9 and the print driver. The solution is to uninstall IE 9 and use IE 8. Normally, this solves the problem. If this isn't something you want to do, there are other options. First of all, you can try using another web browser. I'll include links to Firefox and Chrome downloads. Another of the options, is that you can try to use a different printer driver. I would add as well the instructions below. Hope that helps.

  • HP Photosmart 5520: Printer crashes. Error B81605BE.

    Today, my new HP Photosmart 5520 arrived. I took it out of the box, the driver installed and it works. After connecting to the wireless router, it gave a blue screen. Error message: B81328F0. After a second, this screen disappears and the printer tells me to put it off and on again. And this happens over and over again.

    Actually, I threw my HP Photosmart 6510 last week, because he had the same problem (only with the B81605BE error code).

    Someone at - it ideas about what is happening here?

    The firmware update does not solve it either, I went to the store and bought a new router. I then put in place a new Wi - Fi network, which is connected to it and... It works like a charm.

    So apparently the router that gave me my provider is not able to communicate with printers (HP?) ... Lesson learned.

  • photsmart 6525: unable to print from the photo tray

    I changed the photo tray settings and selected the format of photo paper and all, but it will still print from the photo tray. I loaded the HP 5 x 7 advanced photo paper in the photo albums tray and emptied the lower tray, but it just says: I have more paper.  Help, please!

    jessicazadd

    Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

    Maybe for this printer model, the Photo tray only wants to print on 4 X 6 photo paper.

    The printer will allow you to place the 5 X 7 Photo paper in the lower status bar / hand and printed after setting printing preferences?

  • HP All in one Printer 4515: HP all in one printer 4515 - issue Photo Printing Smudge

    Hello

    I entered new printer 4515. All functions are working and documents/photo print on standard A4 sheet works fine.

    With the printer, I got 5 HP photo paper in the box (Photo of HP advance glossy 10x15cm). When I print on paper, finger printing and wet ink remain same after 30 minutes. I selected all types of paper different while printing (plain, HP and HP Photo paper brilliant browser) and all the same problem cases. Can you confirm for me what is the problem here?

    Glossy paper should be fine, as long as the paper is the face bright down when placed in the printer.

    Another then, the main thing to check is to make sure that you select the right type of photo paper when, in the print settings before you print.

    I hope this helps and I hope you have a great weekend!

  • 5520 Photosmart, Laserjet 252dw: copy with separate scanner and printer

    I have a Photosmart all-in-one Scanner/printer and a new printer Laserjet. I am very satisfied (also pictured) quality of the laser printer, but I didn't buy an all-in-one again. So my question is, if it is somehow possible to copy of the Photosmart directly to the Laserjet Printer?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi @egau,

    Welcome to the HP Support forum.

    I understand that you have a HP Photosmart e-all-in-one 5520, printer and a printer HP Color LaserJet Pro M252 and want to send copies of the 5520 directly to the Laserjet Printer. I would like to help with that.

    There is no way to copy directly from the 5520 to the Laserjet Printer because they have no way to communicate with each other. What you need to do is scan the 5520 to your computer, and then send the scanned file to print the Laserjet Printer.

    Please let me know if that solves the problem, or if you need assistance.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 prints incorrect color photo

    My new Officejet pro 8500 prints once accuate color. But then, when I print another photo that is Lavender in color.

    I restarted. I reinstalled it. The problem still persists. What else can I try?

    Gibas

    Hello Gibas,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    It might be possible that the poor quality of the image when printing with the 8500 is due to print heads. Given that you have uninstalled, restarted, etc it may be preferable to focus on them.

    You can try to clean the print heads, this guide will show you the correct way to clean: "the following printhead appears to be missing or corrupt" or "the following printhead has a problem" Message displays on the all-in-one.

    Let me know if this can help,

  • HP7520 printer using the photo cartridge during the printing of the documents not General and black print cartridge

    My 7520 printer uses the photo and not the General black cartridge when printing on plain paper documents. The black general still full but my photo cartridge runs out of ink.

    Hi shay!

    My apologies, I didn't know that your prints come out in blue print when you have a totally black cartridge. It is a problem of print quality with the printer or something in the settings of your computer.

    I suggest to try the steps in the guide below. You have already tried some troubleshooting, try so the steps that you have not yet tried, I understand:

    The streaks of ink fixing, faded prints and other common print quality problems

    If you're still only able to print in blue (no black print), so I recommend you call HP to let them know. As you mentioned you have only had the camera for 3 months, it is likely under warranty and you might need a spare part or unit.

    Here are the details of HP:

    If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions: click here.

    I hope this problem is solved for you, have a wonderful Wednesday
