80 lb paper, it is over 280 gsm and 0.33 mm, too heavy and too thick! Typically, the design and calibration laser printer is based on 70 ~ 80 gsm. \n\nOf course, it needs to slow down printing speed to avoid paper jam when increasing paper thickness meanwhile it also possible to take more time for toner transfer from OPC drum to paper and increasing toner density as well. You may change default “common paper” to “106 ~ 163 g/m2” for slow down printing speed of HP laser printer and change Konica Minolta to “thick paper” or “transparency” for the other brands \n\nUnfortunately, slow down printing speed is not enough. The toner transfer from OPC drum to paper is based on electrostatic filed and it difficult to be transferred sufficiently if paper too thick. The consequence of printing quality is very white (color saturation is very poor or toner density is not enough). The solution is paper surface must have positive polarity to enhance electrostatic filed and help toner transfer.\n\nThe other problem will be raised! The fuser temperature of laser printer will heat up to around 200 degree C and melt down toner. The coating material on the paper surface must resist thermal stress when slow down printing speed otherwise printer will be damaged!\n\nCurrently, the weight of photographic paper is around 170 ~ 220gsm. So, our designation is focusing to this range. Of course, thermal stress and positive polarity on the paper surface shall considerate. As I know, suitable 80 lb paper is not so easy to find at this moment.\n\nDue to the toner and laser printer’s engine are difference between difference brands and different series of same brands. Compatibility also is another problem! Fortunately, we had test with HP 2550/3700/4600/5500/9500/Indigo, EPSON C900/C1900/C3000/C4000/C4100, Xerox DC12/6060 and Konica Minolta 2450. \n\nPostScript printing language is possible to enhance gray level and make printing sharpness also. However, corresponding to our testing, we found the printing quality of EPSON is acceptable without PostScript printing language.

check your printer settings.  MS Word did this to me as well and I had to restart the computer and reset all of the printers settings to default.\n\nGood Luck.\n\nTom

The printer has a little spange holder where the cartridges sit.\nThis spange is to absorb the ink from around the bottom of the cartridge so that it won't mess up the page.\n\nCheck to see if this spange is full of ink by now, it might need cleaning. Get a piece of paper towel and hold it on the spange and let it absorb the ink. This should do the job for you.\n\nGood luck.\nhttp://www.bigoncartridge.com

You should be able to select it under page setup in Word or whatever program you are trying to print in. Then you should be able to adjust the place where you put the paper so that it holds the card properly. I would just do a few at a time otherwise your printer might get jammed. \n\nI have done this with 4x6 cards, but I have never tried it with 3.5x5.\n\nGood Luck!

I don't know if this will help you, but I have an HP printer, and found out that it does NOT work well with anything but HP paper.  Other papers get jammed in the feed very easily, no matter what brand.  I started using HP everyday copy and print paper, and no more jams.

what make and model of printer do you have ? If it is a hp then there should be some extra software that came with it that should let you configure how it prints off the pages etc.

You probable already emptied your recycle been and rebooted. The only thing I would suggest is contacted lexmark, they have a experienced staff that may be able to tell if there are any anomalies on your computer that are preventing it from accepting application of your printer.

There is no need to download a printer driver from the Web. The drivers for HP Deskjet printers are included in Windows XP.\nThe following instructions are for installing the basic driver that is preloaded on Windows XP. This document describes how to load the appropriate printer driver that is pre-installed in your Windows XP operating system. The preinstalled Windows XP driver supports basic printing features.\nThis document only addresses the Windows XP operating system.\nStep one: Check to see if the printer driver is already installed\nTo find out if printer is already installed, do the following:\nClick Start, and then click Control Panel. \nClick Printers and Other Hardware, and then click Printers and Faxes. \nCheck to see if the name of your printer shows next to a printer icon.\nIf the printer is there, you are done. The best printer driver is already installed. Proceed to Step four : Set the HP Deskjet driver as the default driver. \nIf the printer is not there, proceed to Step two : Connect the cables. \nStep two: Connect the cables\nWith the computer and printer on, connect the USB or parallel cable to the printer and the computer. One of two things could happen:\nThe driver automatically installs when the printer is connected to the computer. Several small dialogue boxes will appear showing the progress of the driver installation. When the installation is finished, a message displays stating that the printer is installed and ready to use. You are done. The best printer driver available for your printer is installed. Proceed to Step four: Set the HP Deskjet driver as the default driver. \nIf the Found New Hardware Wizard displays, click Cancel and proceed to Step three. \nStep three: Manually install the printer driver\nClick Start, then Control Panel. \nClick Printers and Other Hardware, and then click Printers and Faxes. \nIn Printer Tasks, click Add a printer. \nClick Next. \nSelect Local, then remove the check mark from Automatically detect and install my Plug and Play printer. \nClick Next. \nSelect Port \nParallel connection is usually LPT1\nUSB connection is usually USB001\nClick Next. \nSelect HP from the Manufacturer list. \nSelect the printer model from the printer list, and then click Next. \nSelect Yes if this printer is the default printer, or select No if it is not. \nClick Next to continue. \nSelect No to skip the test page, and then click Next. \nClick Finish to complete the installation. \n NOTE:  If prompted for a Windows disk in Step 12, do not use the disk that came with the printer, use the Windows XP disk or the recovery disk that came with the computer. \n\nIf prompted for a Windows disk, insert the appropriate Windows or PC Recovery disk (not the disk that came with the printer) and follow the instructions on the screen. Once the driver has been installed, it will be listed in the Printers window ( Start, then Printers and Faxes). \nStep four: Set the HP Deskjet driver as the default driver\nOnce you’ve installed the new HP driver, set it as the default printer.\nClick Start, and then click Control Panel. \nClick Printers and Other Hardware, and then click Printers and Faxes. \nRight-click the HP Deskjet driver then select Set as Default Printer.

YOU ARE HAVING "SPOOL" PROBLEMS.\n\nMost of the time, you can reinstall the Drivers. ( The Disk) that came with it.\n\nYou might do a uninstall first, just to avoid any other issues. \n If you have only 1 printer, delete anyother printer programs you have, they may be conflicting.\n\n\nGood Luck.

Hi,\n\nI found a firmware for your printer at HP.com\nIt says that it fixes ""Memory Full" - When loading more than one document in the automatic document feeder (ADF) to make copies, the all-in-one may display "Memory Full; Press Enter"\n\nAnd it fixes lots of other issues with this printer.

Hello. I recently purchased an HP 3600n Color Laser* from Office Depot to replace 2 of my three printers. To date I am very happy with the results. It did not completely replace my HP G85, since it is also my primary fax machine. It did however replace my Lexmark 4039 10Plus and all primary color printing. It still leaves me with an OkiData 390 to print labels. I use the 5000 box of continious feed labels, so at the moment there is nothing I can do about replacing it. Between my two companies, the wifes eBay and the three kids printing daily, we print a case of paper a month (5000 sheets).\nI would have loved to have purchased an all-in-one color laser but all things consided I am very happy.\nOne thing that swayed me to the HP, in that price range, was it came with a print server built in.\n\nI hope this helpped.

As an expert with years of experience I assure you my answer is professional:\n1. place the roll on the holder in a manner that permits the paper to hang down from the front.  Check by looking at the right side of the roll when installed to make sure the roll unwinds in a counter clockwise manner.  REASON: it is easier to control the flow of paper and easier to grasp the end of the roll.\n2. when in place on the holder, gently squeeze the roll so that the inner tube forms an oval.  REASON: if the roll is oval, it is easier to control the flow of paper compared to a perfectly round tube because the oval shape stops the paper as soon as you stop pulling.

The HP Color LaserJet 9500hdn Printer says it can handle 200,000 pages monthly. The tough part is the 80 pound cover stock. It mentioned card stock in tray 2, but I don't think that is quite 80 pound. I would recommend contacting some of the known vendors: Hewlett Packard, Canon, Xerox, or Lexmark. Good luck!

The method above (selection print) works about 95% of the time, however I have an alternative method, use left click and drag (highlight) it will cut down on the amount of side things that you print, but you have to be really careful on where you start and where you end.  You still have to use landscape if you have extra wide pages, if you need to print a lot in landscape, consider buying A4 paper, it's wider then letter paper, for really wide pages use legal paper, it is longer then letter paper, both of these are available almost anywhere they sell computer paper, though you may have to go to a business store (like Staples or Office Max) if you have trouble finding it\nThe other thing that you can do is if the site uses frames, by using right click to get to the printer command you can usually select print this frame (it's sometimes just in the right click menu)
