• Photosmart 5520 (but also others) duplex printing cleared at the bottom

  Very recently, I bought a Hp Photosmart 5520 and I found that sometimes the bottom of a page is cut off when printing double-sided. I looked in this forum and found that this problem is hardware related and can not be solved, but there are solutions. I did a few tests with my current setup and I want to share my discoveries, here for other users waiting for HP to add a FAQ for the photosmart 5520 entry. (but also for the 6520 and 7520, probably)

  The problem is clearly stated in a few messages, dating from September 2013 and Nov 2013, although it is not very easy to find

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/other-printing-questions/duplexing-discrepancy/m-p/2470573/highlight/tr...

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/scanning-faxing-and-copying/double-sided-printing-is-cut-off-short-Phot...

  Basically, the margin of the low printable area is 3mm side simple impression, while it is 15mm (at least!) for the first page, double-sided printing. This is due to the fact that the printer must keep the paper in the output roll after that that he finished printing the first page. It is therefore IMPOSSIBLE to duplex - print a document with text or graphics that extends beyond the margin of the lower 15 mm, unless the page size is reduced so that the effective bottom margin is 15 mm. On the other hand, if the document does not contain text or graphics beyond bottom margin of 15 mm it CAN be printed double-sided without reduction.

  IMHO, the problem is that the default behavior of the firmware of the printer, the drivers of operating system and/or applications do not always properly address this limitation leading to surprising or unsatisfactory results.

  To better understand the limits and behavior of the printer, I have carried out tests under the following conditions:

  (1) copy 2-sided vs 1-side in the printer display

  (2) Windows 7 applications: Word2010, Foxit PDF reader, Acrobat PDF reader

  (3) 4.3 android: Cloud Print and HP ePrint apps

  The firmware in the printer is MGP5CN1351AR (Sep 12, 2013)

  The windows version of printer drivers is 28.8 (October 30, 2012)

  For tests 2 and 3, I have prepared a document word of 2 pages with headers and footers located exactly at 15 mm of margin top and bottom of the page and I have produced a PDF with CutePDF (unfortunately this forum does not allow attachments, otherwise I would have attached it).

  The results were as follows

  (1) in 2-sided copy the last 15 mm on part and on the other copy of the output are empty, even if the text of the content entry page, while, in 1-sided copy only the last 3 mm are empty (resizing is turned off, of course)

  (2) double-sided printed of Word2010 gives a duplexer not resized when the printing preferences, advanced options, "Arrangement" is disabled. If it is set on, the output is reduced. Print PDF files is tricky: there are several different options in Foxit PDF and acrobat PDF. Auto-Centre and adjustment - on the page to print double-sided, but do not keep the right size in Foxit PDF reader; If preserve layout is off a significant part of the bottom of the page is not printed, apparently due to the fact that the margins are not properly managed by foxit PDF. Acrobat PDF instead, leave a good impression both sides preserve the page layout and scaling are disabled (obviously up to 15 mm).

  (3) android Cloud Print prints the word and pdf files WITHOUT a provision to 'preserve', this is why some clipping may occur; HP ePrint prints two word files and pdf reduced in size, as if "preserve layout" option has been set.

  In summary, I'll leave the "preserve layout" options always on in windows and I'll take a cut on the side of double-sided printing and I use hp eprint instead of cloudprint. If the correct size is important to a PDF file, it is best to experiment with Acrobat PDF (even if it is not a light program). iI would be expected at HP improved the behavior of the windows printer drivers to print a PDF file.

  I hope that this post may be useful to other people.

  You are right, that the effective page size is reduced because of the extra margins required to manage the document in automatic duplex mode.  From the rear is donated in the printer from the bottom and bottom printed in the top margin is also higher top for the back to the front.

  The checkbox 'Keep the page layout' is important for results appropriate, although it will reduce the effective print size.

  I've seen reports before of Foxit PDF printing problems, I avoid and use Adobe Reader.

• New Photosmart 5520 will not print in black

  I have a new HP Photosmart 5520 printer all-in-one.  Black ink ran out so I replaced it with a previously used ink cartridge which is of the same type # 564 but a XL version.  This cartridge has been barely used.  Now, I just can't get anything to print in black.  It will print in color, but not black.  I tried to turn off the printer.  I put the cartridge in my printer and it worked fine.  What should I do?

• HP Photosmart 5520: HP Photosmart 5520 suddenly will not print or scan

  Suddenly is no longer able to scan or print on HP Photosmart 5520. With the scan function I use scanning to e-mail, but, after long 'Preparation scanning' on the screen of the printer, the error message "temporarily unavailable.  "Please try again later". With the impression that I use Google Cloud Print (from an Acer Chromebook) and all that happens is that the demand to print everything ends up in a queue of print jobs.  No error message appears on the printer screen. The copy function works fine.  Wireless network printing results are very good.  The printer worked fine for over a year.  Can anyone help?  Thanks in advance.

  Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer.

  It's all very mysterious, but it seems to have corrected itself.  Finally, the 'out of paper' error message appeared yesterday (there were many), I pushed in the paper and things started to print again.  I was also able to rescan.  Not sure if she was no longer a problem of Google or what but we are in service again.

  Thank you very much!

• HP Photosmart 5520: Printer prints blank pages suddenly

  Yesterday, my printer decided that he would simply print blank pages with a black line in the middle. I did a test print via the configuration menu and it prints fine. My wife can print wireless. And until yesterday I had no problem.

  Looks like there is something wrong with the print on your Mac driver. To resolve this problem, we will need refresh your printing system and re - add the printer driver.

However, it does not uninstall printers. Therefore, if use you other printers on the Mac, once the reset is complete simply make sure printers are attached via a USB cable or connected network and (+) add hide them po do add not your HP Photosmart back in right now.

  Once the reset is complete, proceed to the next step.

  Check and repair your Mac disk permissions:

  1. Open Macintosh HD and go to Applications
  2. Go to the Utilities folder
  3. Open disk utility
  4. Select the hard disk volume, you use (usually on the left)
  5. Select verify disk permissions
  6. Once this process is complete, select repair disk permissions

  Add device:
  1. click on the menu of Apple , then Preferences System.

  2. click on print and scan and then check if the name of your printer appears in the printer list.

  3. click on the name of your printer, click the sign minus (), then remove the printer.

  4. click on the plus sign (), click Add a printer or a Scanner, click the name of your printer.

  5. click on the area of use or with the help of Print and then select the name of your printer on the shortcut menu. Ensure that the driver of the HP Photosmart camera is selected.

  

  6. click Add to add the printer to the list. Do not add the AirPrint driver.

• HP Photosmart 5520 All in One printer cancels an order of copy of the glass

  HP Photosmart 5520 All in One printer & HP Pavilion dm1 Notebook PC

  I put a document on the glass of the printer to make a copy. The command is recognized, but cancelled immediately. The first two attempts were given a bit of text/photo about 1 centimeter.

  I used the doctor scanning HP and installed my printer again, but that has not helped.

  Hi RodeDraak,

  Given that the problem occurs when you run a copy, I hope that the problem is the printer hardware not the software on the computer.

  You have the printer connected directly to a wall outlet or is this a surge protector or power bar? Even if you have used a surge protector/power bar this whole time and you feel that this is not the case, please connect to a wall outlet so that we can eliminate the source of energy as the primary cause.

• Photosmart 5520:5520 won't print black

  Hello

  I just installed all new cartridges (they are real HP). But it does not print black.

  I went so all the help which is suggersted in the forum. But, no luck.

  I think that the print head is probably bad.  I spent about $70.00 for four cartridge 564XL.

  I'm too lazy on the purchase of a new black cartridge.

  Also, when I try to scan the alignment page, it says not found alignment page.

  It's more than 3-4 years. So, I probably need to buy a new.   HP maintenance tool detects any problems.

  I just wish I have not wasted $70.00 for the cartridges.  A new HP printr costs less than...

  Kind regards

• AirPrint and WiFi printing stopped working on Photosmart 5520

  I have a HP Photosmart 5520 that worked reliably until recent days. I can print is no longer my OS x, using print wifi or iPad, using Airprint.

  My configuration:

  router - apple airport extreme ac

  MacBook pro connected by ethernet to the router cable

  iPad wifi connected to the same router

  HP Photosmart 5520 connected wireless to the same router.

  1. the 5520 has an IP (10.0.1.13) and can address the internet

  2. the router reports the 5520 is connected.

  3. the Macbook can see the scanner of the printer (such as a scanner of Hello) but not the printer.

  4. safari on the macbook can connect to the web server integrated with 10.0.1.13

  5. the ipad can't see the printer via Airprint

  I unplugged and reset the printer, put off the iPad and the MacBook, nothing helps.

  How can I restore WiFi printing and Airprint?

  Have you tried printing via a USB connection to the Mac? Because the printer will print the iPad with a direct wireless connection, there may be a hardware problem.

  At the moment, contact HP Technical Support to see all the other possibilities for you. If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 for all other regions, click here.

• PHOTOSMART 5520 WILL NOT PRINT BLACK

  I just replaced the cartridges for my PHOTOSMART 5520.

  After that, color printing has no black color.

  All HP cartridges are not new.

  It's very frustrating.

  for some unknown reason, this problem is gone when I tried printing 2 weeks later.

  To summarize:

  I'm in the United States.

  I replaced the 4 cartridges again purchased at HP online.

  After that, the black will not print if I choose to print in color.

  But if I print in "black and white only", black is in fact works very well.

  I tried everything suggested in the web forum such as cleaning, alignment, prower AC cycle,... etc. He has not fixed the problem.

  I stop using the printer for 2 weeks. But yesterday, I try agin, then the problem is gone.

  I don't know what to say. Thanks to HP for assistance.

  Overall, the servie is nice - just called him several times.

• Photosmart 5520 and the mirror image printing

  I have problems printing as well a mirror image. I have a "HP Photosmart 5520'. I read somewhere that this machine has the capabilities but I can't! Help, please!

  Hello

  No, it doesn't have this facility. Please, try the following options:

  • Use a computer program available, like paint or photoshop. These programs allow you to turn and rotate your image to create the image backwards (mirror).
  • Go to the site to Create Mirror Images . This site is free and takes about 60 seconds to do, no download is necessary either.
