Questions of color with photosmart 7960

I have been using this 7960 for years with the XP operating system without any problem at all. I recently changed computers and is now using a beta version of Windows 7. The printer works fine except that I now have a blue tint to all my printed pictures. I did a printer head cleaning operation and ran a test sheet. The test sheet has not produced any yellow color, all other colors looked fine. I use Adobe Elements 7 as my photo editor and I changed my profile of Adobe RGB color in the elements and on the printer, but that made no difference. Someone has ideas like how to do about this situation? I can't find anything on the HP website that deals with this.

If the yellow is not printing a test page this would indicate that you need a new color cartrdige.

Kind regards

  • Problem of color with Photosmart 8450

    I have a Photosmart 8450 for many years and he always printed perfectly.

    Recently, I noticed that the colors were totally false when printing pictures on glossy paper - the overall color is mainly yellow and blue ink seems to be completely absent.

    This occurs when the photo tray is used for paper 4 x 6 and also with the A4 glossy paper in the main tray.

    The same photos printed on ordinary paper are perfect, as is the printing Standard test - all colors are present.

    Only so the common factor is the use of glossy paper. I thought that maybe the quality of the paper, but it happens even with HP Premium Photo paper to.

    The printer is installed on WIndows 7, which gives the driver, so I can not yet updated. Windows displays no problem driver and WIndows update has no effect.

    Any suggestion is welcome.

    Thanks for the link to the troubleshooting page.

    Although I had already done a test print, it was only on paper, and he seemed to agree.

    So I tried again on paper Photo HP was expecting the worst. Surprisingly, it was the same - nothing was wrong with areas for color and black cartridges (marked as 1 and 2 in figure 1 of the troubleshooting page), but lacked the areas to the left cartridge (marked as the 3 in figure 1 of the troubleshooting page).

    So I rechecked the cartridges:

    Left: 348 color Photoprint

    Center: 344 tricolor

    Right: 339 black

    Then I realized what was wrong - the left cartridge was empty.

    I'll get a new one and all hope is correct. Thanks again.

  • OSX 10.8.5 unable to print colors with HP photosmart 1115

    I used to be able to print in color with this laptop computer/computer combo, but after upgrading to OS 10.8.5, there is no option for color printing.  Help, please!

    Hello

    Photosmart 1115 is not officially supported on Mac OS X since version 10.5.

    Try using some 3rd party HPIJS print drivers, those who are compatible with 10.8 and list the Photosmart 1115, sustained.

    Don't forget to install one of the prior agreement of 3 downloads required as a result of the printer, configure the instructions:

  • Question on color background with other objects

    I'm new to this forum and I am very new to illustrator program. I realize that this may be a basic question and stupid it is obvious to most everyone else here but put into perspective my skills. I am doing a project for my base class of graphic design in my community college and I do could be done better by someone in the kindergarten. He looks terrible.

    in any case, I tried to set the background color to a 8.5 x 11 in. project and I know that I can add the background color with a rectangle on the entire space and fill it with a color. My question is how can you put other objects from the background of different color on top a blue (or any color besides)? For example, I put a black circle on the top blue background but it disappears behind the blue, so you can't see the circle. I tried to reduce the opacity of the background blue, but it doesn't look good. I want to be 100% opacity blue. I just need to know how to put things on top of the background color. I'm using CS5 passing.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    You have the mode draw behind? If so, change it at the bottom of the tool palette, or press SHIFT D.

  • Hp134 cartridge is really compatible with photosmart c3183? Not recognized.

    Hp134 cartridge is really compatible with photosmart c3183?

    https://h30042.www3.HP.com/SureSupply/CountryChangeSubmit.action?nav&nav#3

    Had an error with the new hp134 - copy color and cartridge blink = not recognized, full reset does not help.

    Contacts are clear.

    Black print cartridge is hp132 - seem to be recognized and it was working before the color cartridge error. But no printing is available even in black and no self test printing - when you press "Cancel" + "color copy" just "power we" blinks a few seconds.

    Hello

    134 ink cartridge is not compatible with your printer, HP Suresupply list as compatible either:

    The 132 black cartridge must be used with the Tricolor 136 only cartridge.

    You can also use the 131 black with the 135 color ink cartridges capacity.

    Any other combination won't work, as you can find below:

  • I'm trying to locate an HP Photosmart 7960 printer installation disc. Any ideas how to do?

    Two questions...

    I have a HP Photosmart 7960 printer and we have a new computer. We cannot find the installation disc. I called HP and after about 2 hours of 'help' said they cannot support the printer more - it's too old. No download online from HP worked.

    I have TONS of ink for this printer...

    The ink cartridges are 56, 57, 58 and 59. If I can't find an installation disc, it may be interesting to my buying a printer that uses these cartridges. How would you like to know which printers are available that use these cartridges?

    Therefore, pilots base under the link below does not work?

  • HP deskjet 5650 color with the IMac use

    Hope you can help - tried to install the new driver to activate my printer to print in color when it is connected to the new Imac.  Operating system is OS X Maverick and is not in the drop-down options on the HP website.  My printer is really too old to be compatible (printed in color) with my imac?  It prints fine in black and white, but just not in full colour.  Have checked the settings and connected a laptop to the same printer and print in color perfectly fine... Tried to download driver OS X but it downloaded then could not open with error message on screen: cannot open the OS X HP Inkjet Installer application because the Power PC applications are no longer supported.

    Any ideas to help me please?  Thank you very much...

    Hi BBHRJane,

    Apple offers third-party software for scanners and printers by using the software update. To set up your printer or scanner, just connect it to your Mac. If the software is needed and available, OS X automatically downloads and installs.

    This article is a comprehensive list of the models currently supported for printer and scanner and associated software provided by third-party vendors as of November 14, 2013. OS X: printer and scanner software available for download.

    The Deskjet 5650 isn't on the list. Although I prefer not to be the bearer of bad news, the fact of the matter is, the Deskjet 5650 does not have a compatible driver to work with 10.9.

    On a positive note, you could call HP. HP may be able to offer a more recent model, which is compatible for a cost reduced. The number to call HP is 1-800-474-6836 for the Canada and US or you can Contact HP worldwide.< click="" here="" and="" select="" your="">

  • Photosmart 7960 installed via the USB port on the PC under Win XP Pro acting as a print server

    I have a PC running Windows XP Pro, which acts as the home network file and print server.   The Photosmart 7960 is connected to this computer via a USB cable and configured to be "shared".   When I go to "Add a printer" on another PC, in Windows 7, which is also part of the same network, I can navigate to the 7960 correct, but the installation wizard is unable to find the driver for Win 7.  I still have what in the HP see basic documents that tells me how to add this shared printer on my Win 7 PC.  Looking at the support page drivers I saw that Windows 7 already has the driver.  True, but the only way, it seems that I can get to it is to connect the printer directly to Win 7 PC via a USB cable.   Any suggestions?

    Apparently, the solution is as follows.  First connect the photosmart 7960 directly to the PC running Windows 7 via USB cable network.  It will be auto-install drivers.  Reconnect the printer to the PC under XP pro server.   From the PC running Windows 7 where you have installed the printer via USB, you can go ahead and remove the photosmart 7960 from the list of printers; This will not remove the just downloaded drivers.  Next, select Add a printer, and then select 'Add a local printer' (no network).  Select 'Create New Port' and click Next.  In the next dialog box, type the name of the host server and the name of the printer.  In my case, it's \\mainserver\HP photosmart 7960. Click Next.   In the "Install the printer driver" dialog, click "Hewlett Packard" and find the 7960 in the printer list and click Next.  I was able to successfully install the printer this way.

  • driver disk software hp photosmart 7960

    I just upgraded to Windows 7 and HP does not have a complete driver for my Photosmart 7960 printer support. I can't find that my driver installation disk of anywhere and I need to get all the features (printing without margins, maintenance, etc.) installed. Anyone know where I can get one? Thank you!

    Looking at the pages in the car it appears HP decided to not fully support even Vista on this printer, not to mention Windows 7. They have even a program uninstaller to remove the software if the user upgraded from XP to Vista because the old XP software does not work on Vista. I'm sorry, but you may be out of luck if you want anything else than to the basic print functions.
