13x18 Photo Paper does not fit in the photo tray despite it saying "13x18" on the paper tray

[Pyve]

Printer bought in Bilka (Denmark).

Trying to print photos, but the 13x18 photo paper available in Denmark doesn't fit into the printer tray.

The paper size is 13x18, checked so that is not the problem.  

Should the correct sized replacement paper tray come directly from you or from Bilka?

==============================================================

There is no replacement tray (nor the need for one) - small photo paper only in the photo tray.

If you are measuring 13 x 18 cm (centimeters),

This is about 5x7 inches.

Paper larger than 4x6 inches should be placed in the main tray and not the photo tray.

Product Specifications for the HP ENVY Photo 7134 All-in-One Printer (Z3M48B)

Load the paper into the printer according to the instructions in the User Guide

Page 16

Remove the "regular" size paper

Load your 5x7 inch (13 x 18 cm) into the main tray - print side down, short ends front / back.

Adjust the side bars to the edges of the paper.

Tell the printer about the change of paper / paper type and set the Preferences.

Reminder:  When you print, it might be necessary to set / adjust / select the Source (Tray) as opposed to leaving source as "automatic".  Adjust your settings accordingly in the software / application you are using to view and submit the job to the printer.

Check / Adjust / Retain the Paper at the Printer Display Panel

Open Printer Tray,

If you have not yet done so, add desired paper type

Wait a couple of seconds…

Close Tray

IF applicable for your printer:

Look for a message on the Printer Control / Display Panel,

Click Modify (wording varies), set the paper size and type, Click OK

Note:  Printer Display panel option is not applicable to printers that lack a printer display panel and might not be available on all printer models that do include a printer display panel.

Note 2 – Printer Display Panel > Adjusting the paper size:

If the size of your Paper Size is not in the Drop-down menu,

If the “custom” paper size is available in the list:

Select Custom (likely the last selection in the list)

And / Or

Embedded Web Server (EWS)

 Note:  This option is not applicable to printers connected via a USB printer cable (no network connection).

If the printer is on the network,

If the EWS feature is supported on your printer,

Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS) to view / configure your printer.

NOTE:  Laser printer options in EWS are very different from those offered in InkJet Printers.

Open your favorite browser > type / enter Printer IP address into URL / Address bar

Tab Settings > Preferences > Tray and Paper Management

If applicable, check the Advanced section (at the bottom of the Tray and Paper Management menu)

Click Apply to save changes

NOTE:  If the size of the Paper Size is not in the Drop-down menu, Select Custom (likely the last selection in the list)

NOTE 2:  EWS is also available in HP Smart Windows and HP Smart Mobile > Settings > Advanced

Set the Preferences – Windows

NOTE:  This section is not applicable to Mobile Printing.

Printing Preferences are available directly from the driver and / or might be called "Printer Properties" / "Shortcuts" (or similar) from within printing software / applications.

Notes: 

• Generally, Ignore this section when not relevant – for example, when using Word > Mailings > Envelopes.
• In the case of PDF / Image printing, Pre-set the Preferences (below) or set the Properties during the job setup.

Preferences / Envelopes

Regardless of what kind of printing you will do (later), make sure the Printing Preferences shortcut is set to "Everyday Printing" or something equally benign.  For example, don't leave the shortcut set to Booklet printing choices or other custom setups that are completely contrary to printing envelopes.  The least "best" choice is "Factory Defaults" - try to avoid that shortcut if you can do so.

I have tried your solution with varying success.

Some cases printed a blank side and otherwise I got a picture cropped with a large white section on the right.

I am not having an easy time with this printer 😞
