I cannot change the paper size when printing from my ipad or iphone.  It seems to be set to legal and therefore doesnt print the entire document as it starts 2-3 inches below top of page thus cutting off what is at bottom.

Go to your printer, open then close the paper tray.  A message should appear on the screen stating the paper size. Click the arrow to change the paper size to the one you want.  Now that should be the default size and you should be able to select it from your phone or iPad.

 

Hope this helps.

box. Access the Advanced Options dialog box by clicking the Advanced button on the Layout or Paper/
Quality tab.
● To change default print settings, click Print, Scan & Fax , and then click Set Preferences in the printer
software.
Depending on your operating system, do one of the following to open the printer software:

Notes
● Original HP ink cartridges are designed and tested with HP printers and papers to help you easily
produce great results, time after time.

required as a result of using a non-HP supply will not be covered under warranty.
If you believe you purchased original HP ink cartridges, go to:

● Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only.
NOTE: When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement cartridge
available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace the cartridges until print quality
becomes unacceptable.
● Software settings selected in the print driver only apply to printing, they do not apply to copying or
scanning.
● You can print your document on both sides of the paper.
