• HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 2645: Printing problem

  I tried printing the photos on Microsoft Word, my images are always in line with the margins. And then I check my preview before printing, and it's perfect

  But when it prints it completely different, it looks almost as if its zoomed in

  You can help me solve this problem

  Thank you

  Hello @ChelsHp,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I see that you're running into some problems printing photos to your HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 2645. When you print the picture, the image looks as if it is maximized. You run the Windows 8 operating system and print photos from Microsoft Word.

  Have a look here to ensure that you have the correct settings: Print the Photos saved on your computer (Windows)

  1. what sized photo paper are you using, you change the paper size in the print preferences?

  2. that you get error messages when you print?

  3. If you print a document, or a copy that is zoomed also?

  I was able to find this solution on the Forums, which can be useful:

  "Right-click on the image. Choose the size and Position. In the next window, select Position.  In the new window, select Horizontal, Center and to the right of the parent to the Page, no column. »

  If you are unable to print the photo, try the following steps:

  Here's how to move photos from your screen to the printed page:

  1. open the library of images from the desktop and select the photos you want to print.

  You want to print a photo? Then click on it. To select multiple photos, hold down the CTRL key when you click on each of them.

  2. tell Windows 8 to print the selected photos.

  You can tell Windows 8 to print your selection either of these ways:

  • Choose the tab sharing the folder in the main menu and choose print.

  • Click one of the selected photos, and then choose print from the context menu.

  No matter what method you choose, the print pictures window appears.
  

  3. Select your printer, paper size, quality, type of paper, layout of picture and the number of times to print each photo.

  The print pictures window allows you to change several settings. (If you don't change what whatsoever, Windows 8 print a copy of each picture on a sheet of 8 1/2-x-11 - inch photo dear.)

  • Printer: Windows 8 lists your default printer, your only printer, if you have only one - in the top-left drop-down list. If you have a second printer that you use only for photos, select that printer from the drop-down list.

  • Paper size: Windows 8 lists the different paper sizes in this drop-down list where you can print on anything other than the normal 8-1/2-x-11 inch photo paper.

  • Quality: leave this at 600 x 600 dots per inch, for most photo printers. If you print to a regular printer, go to 300 x 300 dots per inch.

  • Paper Type: select the type of paper that you have placed in your printer, usually a type of Photo paper. This menu lists usually several types of photo paper, glossy paper of semi gloss to matte. Don't know what kind of photo paper, you? The choice between the photo classified options paper, as they will turn out better that you choose plain paper.

  • Layout: on the edge right photo print window, choose how Windows 8 should organize photos on the page. For example, you can print each photo to fill an entire page, print pictures of nine portfolio or print something between the two. Whenever you select an option, the wizard displays a preview of the printed page.

  • Copies of each picture: choose anywhere from 1 to 99 copies of each image.

  • Adjust image to the surroundings: leave this checkbox enabled for Windows 8 to fill the paper with the picture. (This option may slightly trim the edges of your photo for a better fit.) * Source

  Please let me know the results. I look forward to hear from you.

  Thank you

• DeskJet 1050 J410: HP Deskjet 1050 J410 intermittent printing problem

  My printer has an intermittent problem where when something is being printed, a line will have the empty right in the middle of it (you can see part of the printed information line above and below the Virgin part).   About ninety percent of the lines print correctly.   Even if the cartridge still had ink, I replaced them - this has not fixed the problem, so I thought that the printer was bad.

  This is where it gets strange:

  Some time ago I bought an another Deskjet 1050 J410 (it was on sale and I wanted a backup).  I replaced the active printer with the new printer, thinking the problem would probably solve themselves.   Guess what?  It does the same thing as the old printer.   It doesn't seem to matter what I print (emails, documents,...).

  Thinking that it must be something in the processor (motherboard, printer card?), I turned off the system and left on the printer, then copied a page on the printer as a test.    It is also the same problem.  So now that I'm back to thinking, it is a printer problem.   But how the new printer could have the same problem as the old printer?

  Any ideas what is causing this and how to fix it?

  I ran the diagnostics HP (HP Print and Scan Doctor) and no problems were found.

  I also ran the HP (alignment, cleaning cartridges and printer) Toolbox.

  Is there a software that is loaded directly on the printer and could that be the cause of the problem?

  P.S. before I met this problem about 1 week ago, I had used the printer for more than 2 years and not had this problem.

  Jamieson, of the Forum of Support HP team sent me an email with a link that has several steps to correct the problem, I did.   I am very pleased to report that my problem has been corrected.    Jamieson, Bravo.  You have made my day. Keep up the good work.     I'm curious to know what caused this problem to occur.

  3. Select Local printer attached to this computer, and then Next.

  4. from the drop-down list, select the port using the Deskjet 2050, and then click Next.

  5. under manufacturer make you you select HP. Under printers find the hp deskjet 990c printer and then click Next.

  6. you can change the name of the printer or leave it as is, the decision is yours. You can do this by default if you wish. If you do just that you don't forget to select instead of the Deskjet 2050 when you print from Excel. Be sure to click Next when finished.

  7. not to share the printer, unless you need to share, and then click Next.

  8. say yes to print the Test Page to make sure everything worked, and then click Next, followed by finish.

• WINDOWS VISTA BUSINESS AND PRINTING PROBLEMS WITH MY HP 840C DESKJET PRINTER.

  RECENT APPEARANCE, PRINTER GOES THROUGH ALL THE MOTIONS TO PRINT, BUT A CLEAR SHEET COMES THROUGH.  I HVE CHECKED CONECTIONS HARDWARE, OK; CHEC'D SOFTWARE COMPATIBILITY, OK; SMC WOULD HAVE WINDOWS VISTA ONLINE HELP SITES AND SUGGESTED AUDIT SOFTWARE IS USED.  LAURYS ALL OK.  THE MAJOR PRINTING PROBLEM IS WITH MY ONLINE BANKING WHEN I TRY TO PRINT STATEMENTS ETC. ON THIS SITE.  I HAVE CHD'D WITH THE APPROPRIATE SITE TECH PEOPLE AND THAT THEY HAVE NOT HELPED, SAME PROBLEM,...  WOULD APPRECIATE ANY SUGGESTIONS OR HELP WITH SIMILAR PRINTING PROBLEMS!  e > j > t

  Display uppercase is considered shouting & your message is difficult to read and can be ignored by many.

  Say the HP support? Often with an HP printer, the solution the easiest is to unplug the printer, uninstall the HP printer via Add/Remove, runDisk cleaning software and restart. Then download/install latest drivers/software from HP and only connect the printer when the installation says.

  Of course its possible allways the printer failed.

• Deskjet 960C printer problem

  This printer worked perfectly with my Windows 7 system until a few days ago.  Now, it takes about 15 minutes to print a page - even time if black and white or color.  I don't know where to start troubleshooting.  Would it be a of the automatic updates of the system which is at the origin of the printing problem?

  Thanks for any help.

  Try printing a test page by pressing the button resume 5 seconds. If this page is slow to, it might be a cartridge problem. Get out them of the printer and check the date on the cartridges.

• DeskJet 4160 does not turn off.

  I saw the post with the same problem on an another DeskJet, but the solution was a replacement - my 4160 is out of warranty. I had the same indicators - the flashing of the button "we / off" and the "Summary" button flashing - but turn off the computer did not work for me. I unplugged the printer with the computer off and was still out of action. BTW, I also had an indication "disconnected" on the page of the HP Solutions.

  I downloaded a fix has been described as "disconnected" problem and could make the printer work (used diagnosis HP download). But I can't even turn the printer off.

  My hypothesis is that there is a fault in the wiring of the button or the internal logic chip that does not send the signal to the circuits 'power '. My 4160 is about 4 years old, but is a very good printer and I would like it to work.

  I can work this way, the use of the power to the inactive printer won't break me - but I wonder if anyone has seen this problem.

  Best, Jon

  Thanks Shlomil.

  I see by your post I'm unclear in my question (and looking at my message that I wasn't really clear). Despite this, my problem is now solved.

  I had already healed the problem "flashing lights" and got the printer from the device by unplugging the power for 20 seconds, but the problem rest not being able to turn off the printer was the source of my question. I didn't have to unplug the USB, as it seems irrelevant to the 'shut down '. BTW, I had also deleted messages waiting in lines to print on two accounts on my machine at home. It seems that disconnection of power took care of the queue, because I first tried this deletion with no result.

  I followed your suggestions and removed the USB first, then the power. I left it a full minute, then reconnected power and tested the switch panel "power" - it worked. I then reconnected the USB and re-tested, it worked.

  Can I ask the forgiveness of any future readers of this thread, as well as yourself, for details - but I don't see the logic of the complete disconnect regarding the "power switch". Maybe it was because I gave her more time, maybe it was the 'double disconnect. " There seems to be no reason for that the simple "off / on" switch would care about the USB connection, but who knows what "evil lies at the heart of a computer".

  In the introduction, I am experienced enough - although less so now these modern devices. My contacts with the computers date back to the programming of the machines IBM from 1961 and was still Assembly programming communication protocols in the 1980s. I encountered difficulties with the modern machine that is separated from the user by higher layers of level languages and operating systems developed by the committees.

  I'll make a suggestion to any future readers of this thread, always unplug the key USB (or another data link) first - then put the plug. Reverse the sequence in the re - plug, power first, and then data - and test the feature before plugging the data binding. Also go and pour coffee or get a beer, before reconnecting the power. The 10-20 seconds normally required to take down the logic circuits may not be enough. (Summer, done this hundreds of times when I was in the company).

  Finally, I'll mark this Accepted and click on congratulations (BTW, glad that's not kudo, the Greek word is not plural, something wrong understood by many sports commentators that "offer a kudo" to a player - that's the word for praise). But if someone think of a reason why it worked - that is, not the flashing lights, but the 'stuck' power button - I'd love to hear it.

  Best, Jon

• Eny HP 4520: Printing problems in word Document with photo

  I just purcahsed a HP Envy and I use the function print via the wireless option. I have a word document that I was able to print in the past which has an image inserted into the document. All in the words fine printing copies only the upper left photo f. When I show preview before printing, it shows that if the whole of the document will print correctly and the image should print very well... I have attached what print preview looks like and what actually prints

  Hi @dmanyeah,

  Thank you for reaching out to the forums! I understand that you encounter printing problems in Word, the full image is not printing. Thanks for providing the screenshots. I'd love to help you.

  Try to print a picture from another application to see if you have the same problem.

  To exclude the driver, install a generic driver to see if you have the same results.

  • On the computer, go to start, devices and printers, right-click on your printer and select printer properties.
  • Click the Advanced tab and click new driver, and then click Next.
  • HP Deskjet 9800 by selecting in the list or the Deskjet 990c printer, click Next, Finish, and apply the settings. (you can always go back and revert to the original printer driver)

  What version of Word are you using?

  If the problem is resolved and you appreciate my help, please click on the "accept as Solution" and the buttons 'Thumbs Up'. Let me know how make you out. See you soon!

• HP Deskjet 3540: Unable to print documents using the HP Deskjet 3540 (network)

  I am printing documents using the HP Deskjet 3540 of difficulty.

  All options in the print dialog appear to be blocked.

  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software nothing works. HP Print and Scan Doctor offers no help.

  Screenshot below

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  

  X-23 you are the boss.

  I followed your steps and was able to print a test page for Word, PowerPoint and PDF. I also printed a picture on plain paper in full transparency. I was also able to quickly implement the project and printed without a problem.

  I have not tried to print a photo on photo because of the low ink level paper but I'd be surprised if I'm not able to.

  Thank you for your kind and your patient attention to the problem I was experiencing.

  It's really appreciated.

  Prosperous 2015 for you and yours.

• Strange photo printing problem.

  Windows 7 SP1 runs on a home-built PC (Intel Core 2 Duo E8400/Nvidia 8600GT) my printer is a HewlettPackard Deskjet 1050 A., I'm having a problem very strange printing photos and other images.

  If the image is stored on my PC, it will print only in shades of gray, well that the images display correctly in color on the monitor. Images printed directly from the internet using "file > print" in the menu of the browser print in color.

  Diagnostic and test pages print in color, as expected. Color of text prints correctly. In "Printing Options", "Print in grayscale" is disabled. I thought initially a printer problem, but printer diagnosis and convenience stores to find nothing wrong.

  I think that the problem must be in the attributes or properties of the image, but I don't know where to begin the search in order to find a solution.

  Anyone know what I can do to fix this?

  Gary,

  In addition to answering the question about the types of files which are giving you the problem, what program you use to view and print the files saved on your computer?

  If you are using the Windows Photo Viewer (Windows 7 by default), see--> http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-pictures/jpegs-only-print-in-black-and-white-via-the-image/b9c1a406-b046-48d3-b9c3-ab23279c8b3a
