HP Eny 5010
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,

 

I just bought HP Q2510A Everyday Glossy Standard Fotopapier for my new Envy 5010. I've read "Your HP printer should have a setting called Everyday glossy which will be a match for this product that you bought and should give you a good result." the customer questions. But my Printer doesn't have this option. Now I dont know what setting I should choose. Any help pls ? 🙂

 

Regards !

The reference thread is perhaps for a different printer.

 

 Product Specifications for the HP ENVY 5010 All-in-One Printer (M2U85B)

Media types
Plain Paper; HP Photo Papers; HP Matte Brochure or Professional Paper; HP Matte Presentation Paper; HP Glossy Brochure or Professional Paper; Other Photo Inkjet Papers; Other Matte Inkjet Papers; Other Glossy Inkjet Papers; Plain Paper; Light/Recycled

 

Look for something in your print dialog that is similar to what you need.

 

Even HP photo (foto) papers might be close enough.

 

The main point is to differentiate between Brochure paper and Photo (foto) paper when selecting your Media type (kind of paper).

 

Where to check / Adjust...

If you have the Full Feature Software installed,

 

Check / Adjust / Retain the Paper at the Printer Display Panel

 

Open Printer Tray,

If you have not yet done so, add desired paper type

Close Tray

IF applicable for your printer:

Look for a message on the Printer Control / Display Panel,

Click Modify (wording varies), set the paper size and type, Click OK

 

NOTE:  If the size of the Paper Size is not in the Drop-down menu, Select Custom (likely the last selection in the list)

 

 

Set the Preferences - Windows

 

  1. Check / enable the printer as the “Default Printer”

 

Settings > Devices > Printers and scanners

UNCHECK (clear box) Let Windows manage my default printer

Select (Left-Click) your printer from the list of printers > Manage > Set as Default

 

 

  1. Select and adjust settings in each category for the Media (kind of paper), source (tray), and paper size.

 

Settings > Devices > Printers and scanners

Left-Click on (your) Printer > Manage > Printing Preferences

 

Next

Tab Printing Shortcuts > Click / Highlight your preferred shortcut > Click Apply > Click OK to exit

 

NOTE - Make changes to a Shortcut

  • Select a shortcut and adjust the settings for paper, source (tray), other settings
  • If there is a More > section, check / adjust settings in the sub-sections > Click OK to save sub-menu changes
  • If supported, save the edited shortcut or use “Save As” or “Create Custom Shortcut” to save under a new name
  • Click OK to save the setup
