HP 8130 WILL NOT ALWAYS PRINT SOMETHING FROM A WEBSITE. TODAY IT PRINTED FROM SAFARI BUT WOULD NOT WITH CHROME

Hi @HANAPONO,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

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

This is a common issue and usually not the printer’s fault; it’s related to browser print settings or PDF rendering. If your HP OfficeJet Pro 8130 prints from Safari but not Chrome, here’s what’s happening and how to fix it:

Why It Happens

• Chrome uses its own PDF viewer and print engine, which can sometimes conflict with printer drivers.
• Incorrect print settings (e.g., “Save as PDF” instead of the printer).
• Outdated Chrome or HP driver.

Step 1: Check Chrome Print Settings

1. Open the webpage in Chrome.
2. Press Ctrl + P (or Command + P on Mac).
3. Ensure: 
   • Destination = Your HP printer (not “Save as PDF”).
   • Background graphics enabled if needed.
   • Paper size matches printer settings.

Step 2: Try “System Dialog”

• In the Chrome print window, click More Settings > Print using system dialog.
• Select your HP printer and print.

Step 3: Update Chrome

• Go to Settings > About Chrome → Update to the latest version.

Step 4: Update HP Driver

• Download the Full Feature Software and Driver for your printer from: HP OfficeJet Pro 8130 All-in-One series | HP® Support

Step 5: Convert to PDF First

If direct printing fails:

• Click Print > Save as PDF.
• Open the PDF in Adobe Reader or Preview → Print from there.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have an amazing day!
