HP6055- only option for paper size is 5X7.  Can that be changed to other sizes, like a whole page 81/2 x 11?

Welcome to the HP Community --

 

HP print settings guide

Topic Change print settings (Windows)

Sub-Topic Save preferred print settings

 

NOTE

When called from within printing programs / software / applications, Printing Preferences might be called "Printer Properties" / "Shortcuts" / “More Settings” / “Properties” / "Printer Setup" / "Presets" or similar.

 

You posted in the Mobile print board and you added Windows 10 as your Operating System.

 

There is no mention of which app or software you are using.  Windows provides a wider variety of apps and software programs than are generally available in the mobile environment (tablet, phone).

 

EWS / Tray and Paper (paper load and setup) parts of the answer are relevant for both Windows and Mobile versions of HP Smart and other apps and software.

 

Printer Specifications are relevant to all apps and software.

The printer supports paper sizes and types as explained in the Specifications

Tray and Paper – Paper Size / Paper Type / Paper Weight

EWS (Embedded Web Server) provides access and control for Settings, including Tray and Paper.

 

Reminder

HP Smart Mobile might require that paper size / type is rechecked / adjusted before the content is opened for print.

 

Notes

Depending on the printer model, the Printer Control Panel touchscreen might provide access to Paper Size / Type settings immediately after the paper is (re)loaded into the appropriate printer intake tray.

 

New printer?  Touchscreen Printer Control Panel locked against making changes?  Try username "admin" and the PIN located on the sticker on the inside of the front door of the printer.

 

Trays

  • If the printer lacks a second tray, all paper / types are supported in the single available tray.
  • Printers that include a Photo Tray generally restrict the paper sizes and paper type supported in that tray.
