Press the HP ePrint icon on your control panel display, then press Print or Print Info to print the Printer Info Page.
HP Iron-On Transfers should not be used on printers with heating elements, such as Laser printers and HP Deskjet 1200, 1600C, and Hp Business Inkjet 3000 series printers. The heating elements in these printers can melt the transfer paper, which could damage the printer.
Simply plug the USB cable from your printer into an available USB port on your PC, and turn the printer on. On the taskbar, select the Search icon, type Printers in the search bar, and then select Printers & scanners from the search results to open the Printers & scanners system setting.
From the Home screen on the printer control panel, swipe right to navigate, and then touch Reports. From the Reports menu, touch Configuration/Status Pages. Select the Configuration Page item, and then touch the Print button to print the Configuration pages.
It is usually safe to use any “fiber” based material. Additionally, any material that is treated for the use with an aqueous inkjet printer should also be safe. If the material isn`t available pre-treated, there are coatings that can be applied to pretty much any material that will make the material inkjet compatible.
For the best print quality, HP recommends HP Premium Inkjet papers. Paper that is too thin, too slick, or too stretchy can jam the product. Paper that has a rough or fibrous texture or that does not accept ink can cause printouts to smear, bleed, or not be filled in completely.
Automatically scale to fit paper
Choose File > Print. From the Page Scaling pop-up menu, select one of the following options: Fit To Printable Area Scales small pages up and large pages down to fit the paper. Shrink To Printable Area Resizes only large pages to fit the paper and prints small pages as they are.
Sometimes power cycling your printer can resolve the issue. Turn off your printer and unplug it, wait 30 seconds, plug your printer back in, and then turn the printer back on.
You need to ensure your HP printer has enough paper, ink, or toner, and it is not stuck on paper jam. Also, check the status of your printer cartridge and try replacing it with a new one if it is not good enough. In some cases, your HP printer stops printing after you replace its parts.
