Welcome to the HP Community --

 

Perhaps one of more of the following applies to your situation:

 

If you have not been able to print since setting up the printer, check whether you have at least one application or a printer software program available -- installed -- as appropriate for your Operating System / version.

 

If you are having paper size / type issues, make sure the Printer Tray and Paper settings (detected in the printer) match the paper size / type you are using for your current job configuration.

 

This is a clever printer -- the Inspire series handles two sided photo matte paper and 4x12 inch photo prints.  That said, the paper sizes in the photo tray are limited to 4x6, 5x5, and 5x7 inches.  Larger, longer length photos must be printed from the main paper tray.

Reminder

Printers with a photo tray limit the paper size(s) supported in that tray

  • If the printer lacks a second tray, all paper / types are supported in the single available tray.
  • Printers that include a Photo Tray generally restrict the paper sizes and paper type supported in that tray.

If EWS does not allow setting the paper size or size “Custom”,

If the printer includes a touch display printer control panel,

Look for the setting for “Custom” in the Printer Control Panel after (re)loading the paper to be used
