I really just want to get a person on the phone. I'm a PhD economist, who went back (since grad school) to teaching in Jan 2020. I worked full time with benefits last year but I'm going to be pivoting again (adjunct=no benefits = 3500 per class per semester and 2/4 were canceled) so my classes are synch and I completed a Python cert so I am also very actively applying for jobs. I know I can set up defaults but it's not realistic and a lot of LinkedIn print outs have 2 pages with nothing relevant and 75%+ blank.  Does anyone have any suggestions for interacting with HP? I know I can be more careful to always custom print, but I was hoping there might be a way to exclude pages that were mostly blank. Also, since I always print double-sided I've learned that moving from Microsoft to Google documents/sheets/pdfs can result in different formatting that adds a blank or one sentence page. I like to read and make notes on printouts and work through student essays -  (Economics, both principles/math and upper level university courses) old school. I was an editor way back in undergrad years at The Economist. I cannot get a stipend for any supplies and no longer have access to printers in the department. Thank you for reading my frustration.. 🙂

@bridget212, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.

 

Thank you for the detailed post. To assist you better, is the printer enrolled in Instant Ink?

What is the issue with the printer?

If you want to skip printing unwanted sheets in a document, you can enter the page number that you would like to print.

Refer to - HP print settings guide

 

Keep me posted for further assistance.
