envy 6230
macOS 10.14 Mojave

Hello,

I've recently bought a envy 6230 and I have an issue when printing photos (no matter from, p.e. from hp smart app on iphone or lightroom on mac, or preview on mac).

I select the correct paper dimension, p.e. 4x6 and when i see the preview the image is correctly fit on the page but when the print is finish the image it's seems zoomed in/cropped so it's not the same as i saw on the preview of the app.

What can i do?

Thank you

Hi,

thank you for the reply but unfortunately i've had already tried to update the firmware of the printer.

I've had installed the 1925A version of 11th of july present on the support page of the printer.

I've also tried to use a windows pc with the HP software.

I've also tried to print wirelessly or wired.

I've also reinstalled all the drivers in Mac and Windows.

But no luck... the photos print are like zoomed in and so cropped.

But as said in the preview all appears ok...

Select printer and click the minus sign

Click the Plus sign, and then click Add Printer or Scanner.
