Hi @MnM7608,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

To reset the settings on your HP All-in-One 2800 series printer and adjust the print settings for standard letter paper, follow these steps.

Resetting the Printer Settings

1. Turn on the Printer: Ensure your printer is powered on and connected to your computer.
2. Access the Control Panel:
   • On the printer, press the Home button or Menu button (if applicable).
   • Navigate to Setup (the wrench icon) using the arrow keys.
3. Find Reset Options:
   • Look for an option like Restore Factory Defaults or Reset All Settings.
   • Select this option and confirm the reset. This will revert all settings to the original factory configuration.

Adjusting Print Settings

1. Open the Document to Print: Open the document you want to print on your computer.
2. Access Print Settings:
   • Click on File and then Print.
   • Select your HP printer from the list of available printers.
3. Set Paper Size and Orientation:
   • Click on Properties or Preferences.
   • In the properties window, ensure the Paper Size is set to Letter (8.5 x 11 inches).
   • Check the Orientation is set to Portrait (if that’s your preference).
4. Adjust Scaling:
   • Look for a setting that says Page Scaling or Fit to Page.
   • Set it to None or Actual Size to print at normal size.
5. Check Font Size:
   • Make sure your document’s font size is set to your desired size in the document editor (e.g., Word, PDF reader).
6. Print a Test Page: Once you’ve adjusted the settings, try printing a test page to ensure it prints correctly.

Note:

• If the prints are still not coming out correctly, consider updating the printer drivers from the HP Support website.
• Make sure the printer firmware is updated for the best performance.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
