Photosmart C6280 issues print

My printer prints a test without any problems page and it looks good, but everything else I try to print out characters teeny tiny. It's clear impression but so tiny I can't read it without forcing. I can't find the settings that seem to do and I rebooted the printer without modification.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks in advance,

ImGumby

I forgot to mention that I'm running Windows 7 with all updates...

I would like to try some troubleshooting I found Firefox.

Correction of the printing problems in Firefox<>

Another great step troubleshooting when problems from a web browser is to clear the cache and cookies.

Clear the cache and cookies of your browser<>

Also, I learned there are two ways to print in Yahoo, you may already know, but I suggest trying both after the above troubleshooting.

    Hi @Ron9871,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see that you are unable to get your printer HP Photosmart C6280 wireless printing. I'd be happy to help you and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.

    I would like to try the steps in this guide, "offline" Status Message printer (Windows 10).

    If the problem persists, you may encounter an IP address conflict. It's a good idea to assign the printer a static IP address outside your DHCP range. For example, some routers default DHCP is located between 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.200. So, I would use 192.168.0.232.

    • Print a Page of Network Configuration menu of the printer front panel. Note: the IPV4 IP.
    • Type the IP address in the browser to bring up the SAP.
    • Choose the network tab, then wireless on the left side, and then select the IPv4 tab.
    • Select Manual IP.
    • Enter your IP address manual (192.168.0.232)
    • Enter 255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask, except if it is different.
    • Enter the IP address of your router that sits on the Network Configuration Page) for the default gateway.
    • Please, click on manual DNS server. For the preferred DNS Server Manual please enter 8.8.8.8 and the Alternate DNS Server Manual, please enter 8.8.4.4.
    • Click on apply.

    Please restart the router, the printer and the computer in this sequence.

    If you're still having problems, please download and run the print and Scan doctor, it will be probably diagnose and fix the problem you are experiencing.

    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (she print or scan, error messages)

    You can try to change your WSD printer port by a Standard TCP/IP port.

    To do this, you will need your current IP address printers.  The Network Setup page shows the parameters of network for the product. To print this page; Press the button of network () on the control panel of the product.

  • Photosmart C6280 issue in point 8.1 of Windows

    I have a C6280 in my wireless network that worked perfectly with all my machines, Mac, Win XP and Win 7. I recently picked up a laptop Dell with Windows 8.1.  After going on the HP support site and download the new driver package, I installed it on the machine. During the installation process, after having chosen wireless, he went through the configuration, the printer, even showed but I could not put it up to print or even connect. I got stuck in a loop by telling me to install the drivers. I uninstalled and tried again with the same results.

    Any idea? Thank you.

    Interesting. I just re-downloaded the complete package of HP and went through the process of Setup again. This time, it worked perfectly and the printer was found and installed. Apparently the first couple tests Windows 8.1 was having a bad day of hair or something.

    Problem is resolved... Thank you.

  • Manually uninstalling the program driver struggling for Photosmart C6280

    I had problems that motivated me to uninstall and reinstall my driver. Unfortunately, the uninstall program has been damaged and did nothing. I tried to reinstall it on top of the current program but the Installer did not provide this option when he saw that the program was. I tried HP Print and Scan doctor but he said everything was fine.

    I tried to uninstall manually. I removed startup entries, registry entries and most of the files in the directory of Hewlett-Packard. 4 files will not delete even if I thought I had all the startup items. It says: "cannot delete hpqddcmn: access denied." Make sure that the disk is not full or write protected and that the file is not currently in use. »

    Hi, if the printer is on a thing of warranty that may be worth soaking the print head...

    (1) get a pan and put 1/2 "of very hot (not boiling) water in the bottom.
    (2) remove all ink cartridges, then remove the print head Assembly.
    (3) gently put the printhead nozzles down in water and soak for 5 minutes.
    (4) remove the print head and gently dry the electrical contacts.
    (5) replace the print head in the printer and then reinstall the ink cartridges.

  • HP Photosmart B109n-z (printing problem) Please help

    Hi all

    I have the HP Photosmart B109n-z printer and put up wireless and it works fine I had no problem with him.

    The other day the black ink stopped working - the cartridge is not empty but it's is no longer black prinking on all documents.  Since I put all new cartridges in, he acknowledges them all, including black, and if I print something like a word document, and then it moves as if printing but the page comes out blank - no black ink is used.

    I work for myself, and work at home, it will get this resolved as soon as possible.

    I checked the cartidge - it's good.

    I checked the connection and the Bay print cartridge - they are clean.

    Help, please.

    The color works fine.

    The issue of black ink is the same print, scan or copy.

    And I have tried turning everything off and on again!
