Hi @GJS1975,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
I'd like to help!
If you want to stop a printer from printing a separator page, you can typically adjust this setting in your computer's printer properties or preferences. The exact steps may vary depending on your operating system (e.g., Windows, macOS) and printer model, but I'll provide general instructions that should work for most situations:
Open Control Panel (Windows) or System Preferences (macOS):
- Windows: Click the Start button, type "Control Panel," and select it from the search results.
- macOS: Click the Apple menu in the top-left corner of your screen and select "System Preferences."
Access Printer Properties:
- Windows: In the Control Panel, click on "Devices and Printers" or "Printers and Scanners." Locate your printer, right-click on it, and select "Printing preferences" or "Printer properties."
- macOS: In System Preferences, click on "Printers & Scanners." Select your printer from the list on the left, then click the "Options & Supplies" or "Open Print Queue" button.
Adjust Separator Page Settings:
- Windows: In the printer properties, look for an option related to separator pages or cover pages. It may be under a "Advanced" or "Finishing" tab. Disable or turn off this option.
- macOS: In the printer queue window, click the "Job Info" tab or similar. Look for an option related to separator pages and turn it off.
Save Changes: After making the necessary changes to disable the separator page, be sure to save your settings.
Keep in mind that the exact wording and location of these options may vary based on your printer model and driver. If you can't find the option to disable the separator page using the above instructions, I recommend contacting phone support for further assistance.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
