When copying onto standard 100gms paper I have no problems. When using glossy paper it does not feed in smoothly

and the top section of what I am copying is lost, I usually finish up with only the bottom two thirds of my picture.

Welcome to the HP Forums!

 

Thank you for posting your query on this forum, it's a great place to find answers.

 

I reviewed your post and I understand that you are facing issues feeding glossy paper and the print quality.

 

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

 

In order that I may provide you with an accurate solution, I will need a few more details.

 

  • When was the last time the printer was working fine?
  • Have you made any software or hardware changes on the computer?
  • Have you performed any troubleshooting steps before posting?

 

Meanwhile, I recommend you follow the steps in the below article and check if it helps.

Thanks you for your interest which is greatly appreciated. In reply to your questions -

The trouble started around ten days ago.

There have been no changes of software etc.

I have tried troubleshooting but cannot find an answer.

 

If it helps, it is only A4 Glossy that is a problem. 6" x 4" Glossy copies O.K.

Thanks for your help Fossett-

I have followed suggestions in the article you suggested. Have also bought some lighter weight glossy paper -

170 gms rather than the 230 gm I was using, and everything is fine. I appreciate your time and trouble.

Regards, David.
