Photosmart HP 6510 driver

Trying to set up this printer HP with my Mac, running OS 10.9.

Go to system preferences, select Printers and scanners, click the + to add a printer.

I see my printer, select it, and then have three fields below:

1. name, comes up with the default name of the printer, I leave it as what.

2. location, I leave this empty.

3 use, with a drop-down menu, but the only options I have on the menu drop-down are Auto Select, select software and other.  Automatic selection does not come to the top with what anyone, select software opens another box but no drivers or anything else in this area to choose and open a Finder window, to find the driver on my system, but I don't know where he is.

All this automation under auto Mac update is not what it is supposed to.  Can I use a printer driver the old-fashioned way, which is, download from somewhere, then simply select it in the above Finder window?

Check/repair disk permissions did not work either, same problem.

I found a workaround though. Found the HP utility in the Hewlett-Packard folder in my Applications folder. Who opened, network settings and found the IP address of my printer. Went back to printers and Scanners, and then clicked the IP option to add a printer. Insert the IP address and it has found the driver. No idea why she couldn't do the same thing via the installation of Hello.

Thanks for your help anyway.

  • Can print but cannot scan Photosmart HP 6510

    After being able to print and scan at my Photosmart HP 6510 my VIAO laptop Ultrabook, for some reason, I lost the ability to analyze.  Whenever I try, I get the error message "the scanner is currently in use. Wait until your previous task is completed, and then try again. "The problem is the scanner is not in use and I do not see how to delete it.  This same printer/scanner device other users can connect their computers and scan from it.

  • New cartridge for Photosmart HP 6510 appears defective

    I just replaced the old magenta cartridge in my Photosmart HP 6510 with a brand new printer, pack of 4, and it is now telling me that or toner appears to be missing or damaged. The new cartridge looks in good condition and is broken down and repeat the relocation or power off the printer do not help.  I tried cleaning the contacts, but everything seems very clean.

    I managed to get the printer working again with the old magenta cartridge up to who has certainly missed, but now the same error is detected, leaving me with a printer that does not even to print only black.

    I bought the original cartridge in a pack of 4 from Amazon, so have little chance to return the fauly cartridge (even though they agreed it was defective).  Looks like I'll have to do a magenta and hope that works, but in the meantime, has anyone any ideas how I can persuade the printer to work using only in black?

    Hello

    There could be two possibilities for that matter, ink cartridge you bought or print head.

    Try installing the old cartridge and check if the error.

    If Yes, then his problem with the printhead, and the printer must be replaced under the print head is fixed part this printer.

  • How can I print on legal paper with a Photosmart HP 6510?

    I have the opportunity to print on legal size paper.  The status bar for my Photosmart HP 6510 does not develop to take into account the length of the paper (at least not that I can find).

    I found I can load a page in the tray, close the tray and it will print.  But it might mean loading of a page of a long document at a time.

    Is it possible to extend the trial of paper?

    I could not find a bin for paper for legal communication on the accessories page: have I missed?

    Is there another solution for loading several pages at a time?

    Alternatively, I'm stuck with a single page at a time?

    Thank you.

    There is an element if you swipe up will drop the lip on the inside of the lips of the paper, on the left side tray, front of the tray and you can load the legal document.  Hope that helps.

  • Photosmart HP 6510 B211a works does not properly after power failure

    Hi guys,.

    I'm new to this forum, but I hope someone can help me.

    I have a HP all in one Photosmart B211a 6510, which worked like a dream, since I had last winter. We had an unexpected outage yesterday however and once the power came back, the printer insists on the fact that there is no ink in the system. I fear the worst and believe that his brain can be somewhat blurred.

    I have two of your ink cartridges replaced last week with genuine HP ones and everything was fine. My ink level is almost low on the other two, but I have not replaced these yet because it is not necessary.

    Once the power came back, the printer informed me that the magenta ink was 'missing or damaged '. I removed the cartridge, cleaned with distilled water and dry. Once replaced, the printer has changed his mind and told me all the ink cartridges are now 'missing or damaged '. When I opened the printer again, the transport of ink is automatically did not move as usual to allow me to change or remove the cartridges.

    More the touch screen of the printer does not allow me to leave this error message or perform any other function such as cleaning the heads. I tried a soft reset and hard reset, but this proved unsuccessful.

    He's tired? Should I just throw it and head to the stores again?

    Thanks for reading this,

    Fatiha

    Hi rich,

    I replaced the cartridge magenta yesterday and my printer works successfully again! Woohoo!

    My father, an electrician, so between us we have come to the conclusion that when the power came back after the crash there was an electric pick or insufficient tension than normal and this has damaged the chip of the nearest power - the magenta cartridge ink.

    All is well again in any case.

    Thanks for your help - I appreciate it

  • Photosmart HP 6510 wireless installed on my imac. No option in driver for WHY print double-sided?

    I followed all the advice re HP duplex printing to get to work, but when I get to the driver tab there is no option for "duplex" printing I already reinstalled the printer without effect driver

    Hello

    The tab pilot within the utility set up printer must not list any accessory option Duplex on two sides.

    The duplexer is an internal part of the specific model and not an external accessory - that is why it is expected that the pilot does not list the duplexer accessory.

    Follow the steps below and you should be able to perform two-sided automatic printing printing:

    1. on the file menu, select print. The print window is displayed.
    NOTE: The print window might be minimized. Click the blue triangle next to the printer name (10.5 / 10.6) or click on the button show details (10.7) to display all of the available settings.

    2. in the print window expanded you will find next to Copies the checkbox for duplex. Select the check box.
    NOTE: If the check box does not appear in the specific application print dialog box, skip this step.

    3. to select the connection type click the selection box below, listed as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
    Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.

    4. Select the menu drop down.

    5. set the duplex option as binding edge Long (Portrait) or binding Long Edge (landscape).

    You can save the settings for later use by clicking preset > save current settings as preset.

  • Photosmart HP 6510: Personalized printing HP Photosmart 6510 problem

    I have read through a couple of threads and followed the instructions to turn on 'custom' on my HP Photosmart 6510 all-in-one printing. I loaded the driver of HP Deskjet 450, which finally allows me to select a custom size of 5.5 "x 8.25". I'm trying to print on wedding invitations response cards. Wedding invitations made the same paper 5 X and can be printed without adding a new printer driver for the 6510.

    Now that I can get the printer driver (deskjet 450) to recognize the custom format 5.5 "x 8.25" but I can't print. I use a model of design by Staples and get the following errors.

    Errors - the margins of Section 1 are set beyond the printable area of the page. Do you want to continue? I pushed Yes and the printer tries to print the job abd I get the error "paper mismatch". The printer actually determined the size of the paper when I adjusted the paper tray to accommodate custom size paper.

    Troubleshooting - I tried to adjust the margins, but I have little ability to adjust in the template provided. When I adjusted the margins, I always get the error "paper mismatch".

    Any ideas on how to do more troubleshooting?

  • HP Photosmart e-All-in-On 6510: can't install drivers Photosmart HP 6510, no matter what I try

    WIndows 10

    HP Photosmart 6510 e - all-in - One Printer - B211a

    So I've had problems printing from my computer wireless for centuries now. It seems that it only prints when he feels like it, don't know what to do to solve this problem, and do not know what I do to break.

    After laughing with the inhabitants of problems that I get when I try to print, I tried updrading the driver because there was an update available.

    First of all, I used the HP Installation Wizard, it would be about a minute or two in the download and just freeze. After a bit, he'd say he didn't and I had the opportunity to try again.

    After a few failed attempts this, I tried to download manually (using chrome) Web site, the download appears at the bottom of my browser and the beginning, but then after a minute or two, it would again, freeze. Leaving, it comes with an interruption of network error. I have tried both installing the software driver that is full of features, and then the base a few times. None worked.

    Tried to install HP Print and Scan doctor after reading a few articles support. But even once, uploading manually or via the installer of HP you freeze at some point and not work.

    After the age of back and forth between trying to get a single download to work, I open the HP Support Assistant App on my computer. It detected my printer and I added it. He had a mark 'important' and wanted to update my driver, tried to do it is there, started the download, the bar would go up a little, then stay at the download percentage.

    After a bit more supported pages, I uninstalled my driver curent computer, he got the error "Installation error 2081883401: failed to uninstall the device with serial number". "." Press you on ignore, he completed the uninstall, and then I restarted my computer.

    The aircraft has disappeared from my programs and the list of software (so I can't uninstall it again), but he still gets detected with HP Support Assistant, HP Print and doctor Scan that already seemed to be installed via the Support Assistant (don't know if this is normal).

    No matter what I try to do to download the latest driver from HP servers, just download stop and remain unchanged, at some point, until I cancel it or an error message appears, any program, I try to download it through.

    Don't know what I can do at this point.

    Any help would be appreciated

    -Josh.

    EDIT: well, I got it working again. Don't know what I uninstalled. Had to manually detect his IP through windows settings, and now it's just call itself class driver. Don't know why, but at least it works. Still can not update drivers through HP servers however.

  • Photosmart HP 6510 using Mac OS x 10.8 - create multipage documents

    I have updated and installed the driver for the 6510 and I can print and scan wireless. I can't create multipage documents. In the past, I used the software "HP photosmart studio" with a previous printer (is more connected) to create multiple pages of scanned documents.  I can't find the printer when I search new devices in the program "Studio".

    How can I create multiple pages of scanned documents?

    Thank you

    Hello

    You can create multi-page scans using the HP scanning application, you can find it under Applications\Hewlett-Packard.

    Full scans by adding the necessary pages, at the end click on save to complete the analytical work.

    If you can't find the HP Scan means that the complete software has not been installed, you can download the software below, be sure to select the Software from HP recommended during installation:

  • My photosmart printer 6510 prints only black

    My photosmart 6510 prints only black & white with my mac test i is printed 4 color bars

    Looks like the wrong driver is installed. Try to remove and time the printer and check which driver is used.

    Go to system, then print and fax Preferences (print and scan over 10.7), then highlight the printer and go to sign less down to remove it. After that, click on the plus sign to readd it. When you highlight in the list of so that the background box should tell the 6510 print using, if it says something else bad driver is used.

    If this is the case, you have a few options. Try to run an update of the apple software, it can find a printing hp update software, install that, if she does and try to add the printer again. If it still fails to solve, the next option would be to reset the printing system

    To reset printing system go to this window print and fax again and the white box where the printers are listed on the left hold down the CTRL key and click. This should give you an option to reset the printing system. This will remove all of THE printers that you have added, so if you have others you should readd them. After that itll request your password, put it in to confirm, once thebox restart the mac, and add the printer again.

    Need to BEST print mode to get the light gray black text only printer and printing grayscale value must be set to OFF, otherwise no visible impression is reached.

    Colurs look OK on the Test print but once again no sharp black, light not gray see the upward.

    Hi SportBilly15,

    Welcome to the HP Support forums.   I understand that your Photosmart 6510 is not printing black ink properly.

    I've included the document setting the streaks of ink, faded prints and other common print quality problems . It takes you through several steps to correct the problem of troubleshooting.

  • Photosmart HP 6510: Black print failed

    I have a HP Photosmart 6510, which will not print black - pages of text, sound as if they are printing, but the page comes out blank. Watch as the color test page, but not black.  There is no error message.  Black print cartridge is full and I have applied all recommended maintenance procedures.  I'm going to disassemble the printer (which is out of warranty) and the print head to check the visible obstructions before deciding to give up completely and use my backup of Canon.  Can anyone suggest any other remedies or advice on removal of the print head?  Thank you.

    Thanks for your suggestions.  I removed and cleaned the print head, but the problem remains unresolved.  I did more research and decided to go deeper into the printer to access tubes empty below the print head.  I couldn't find all the instructions more complex procedure on the HP site or elsewhere online, so most of the work was intuitive.  I managed to remove the 'well' below the print head complete with 4 vacuum tubes, and it was immediately obvious to me that the black ink tube was clogged.  I went to clean the whole by immersing in hot water and using a syringe to flush out the tubes.  I cleaned too much ink frozen since sponges of drain that receives the excess ink from the vacuum system (no doubt mostly print head last cleaning operations).  After drying of the parts and reassembling the printer, everything is back to the fully functional State.

    I was amazed at the amount of vitriol expressed by users of the forum to HP for what seems to have been a recurring problem with these printers.  It seems incredibly useless to throw a sound mechanical printer because of a dried ink problem, but that's what many did the cost of 2-3 hours time technician to fix the problem simply cannot be justified. It is unfortunate that HP provides no instructions for technical people like me who are willing to undertake their own maintenance out of warranty HP products.

  • Photosmart printer 6510

    98% of the time that I print with black ink custom setting only in draft mode to save ink.  I noticed recently that was not only my black cartridge low on ink, but also that my color ink cartridges were low.  Is it possible that when the black ink cartridge contains ink printer is designed to use the color cartridges for black ink?

    There is color ink used when printing to keep open nozzles.  Color ink is also used for graphics unless you selected "black ink only.  If you print with photo color ink media will be used exclusively, black ink is not compatible with photo paper.  Color and black inks are also used, if you never tell the printer to complete a cycle of cleaning (rarely needed).

    The here document contains information on how the ink is used, the Photosmart 6510 is an IIC printer in the terminology of this page.
