HP Envy 5032
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

So I want to print something on my Envy 5032  from my pc.

 

On my pc, I select the correct paper size and paper type. But then the printer screams it can't print, because I haven't selected the correct paper size and paper type on the printer itself.

 

Why do I have to do this twice? Is there a way that the printer automatically takes over the printer settings selected on my pc?

Hi @kaasplankje,

 

I'd like to help!

 

To assit better -

  1. Are you able to make copies?
  2. What's the application you are trying to print from? Have you tried printing from a different application or devices? 
  3. What is the type ,size and weight of the paper ?

  Keep me posted.

Hi, I just tried again but am not able to reproduce the error I have experienced previously. I think it was caused by a paper feed error because I loaded just one piece of photo paper. Anyway, it seems to work now; I can leave the paper size settings on my printer untouched (A4) whilst printing on 13x18 cm glossy paper with the correct page settings in windows.
