How to set default paper size to 8.5 x 11"

[photonreader]

I cannot change the default paper size setting back to 8.5 x 11 from the 7 x 5 it is stuck on.

Welcome to the HP Community --

Not sure how to do this in-system.  No MacOS in home office.

From what little I remember, the print settings dialog might have a horizontal bar across the menu / window that drops open the settings window.  ??

Try using EWS to view / adjust the default paper size and type settings in the printer.

EWS > HP Document / How-to

Use the HP printer Embedded Web Server (EWS)

NOTE:  Find printer IP address

Section How do I manually assign an IP address to my printer?  Items 1-2

EWS – Browser – Tray and Paper Management

Open your Browser > Type / enter the Printer IP address into URL / Address bar

Tab Settings > Preferences > Tray and Paper (Management)

Select / Adjust settings for Paper Size / Type

Model Dependent:  Advanced section

Click Apply to save changes

General Example - EWS - Tray and Paper

EWS_9025_Preferences_Tray_and_Paper_Management_All_10
